The 44th Golden Raspberry Awards, or Razzies, honored the worst the film industry had to offer in 2023 on March 9, 2024.[1] These awards are based on votes from members of the Golden Raspberry Award Foundation (1,179 movie buffs, film critics and journalists from 49 US States, and two dozen foreign countries).[1] The nominations were announced on January 22, 2024.[1][2][3][4][5] Additionally, with four nods, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania earned the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) its first-ever Razzie nominations, breaking the franchise's 16-year streak without a single Razzie Award nomination.[6][7][8]
In August 2023, a statement by John J. B. Wilson and Maureen "Mo" Murphy announced that the Golden Raspberry Award Foundation was considering the possibility of setting a new precedent by awarding Walt Disney Studios the Barry L. Bumstead Award to an entire studio for the first time ever (and not just an individual theatrical film).[9] This is due to Disney's centennial anniversary releases (ex. Peter Pan & Wendy, Elemental, Wish, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, The Little Mermaid, Haunted Mansion, The Marvels, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, etc.) causing "the once phenomenally profitable Walt Disney Pictures [to suffer] failure after failure at the box office"[9][10] when "corporate honchos had hoped to spend th[e] entire year celebrating a century of success".[9] Ultimately the award was not presented.
Upon hearing of Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey sweeping every award it was nominated for, the film's director, Rhys Frake-Waterfield reacted in an interview for Variety, “I’m surprised our micro-budget film is being compared to Hollywood, but nevertheless I don’t mind the dubious honor as it places me in the same pool as directors whose work I admire so much.”[11]
