During the annual Oscar spoof that highlights Hollywood’s worst performances, Razzie voters exacted revenge on a horror movie that was based on the well-known children’s book character Winnie the Pooh this past Saturday.
The 44th Razzie Awards saw Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey receive five nominations, including picture, director, screenplay, screen couple, and remake/rip-off/sequel. The film won all five of these categories.
Dennis Harvey of Variety emphasized the film’s merits for the Oscars, calling it “a rock-bottom joint that fails to meet even the most basic expectations set up by its conceptual gimmick” on terrible Tomatoes, where it has a terrible certificate.
The Razzie Redeemer Award, bestowed on a past contender who has “gone on to better things” since being nominated for a Razzie, went to The Nanny actor Fran Drescher for her leadership as SAG-AFTRA president during the 2023 actors strike. Drescher was nominated in 1998 for worst actress in the romantic comedy film The Beautician and the Beast.
Hosts Aaron Goldenberg and Jake Jonez, known for their TikTok personas as The Mean Gays, took one more jab at Drescher, saying sarcastically that she led Hollywood actors through an “unprecedented labor action to an even more unprecedented deal with the AMPTP,” the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers.
Other winners include Mercy actor Jon Voight for the actor Razzie owing to his Lucky Charms leprechaun Irish accent.
Megan Fox received two awards: one for supporting actress in the action movie Expend4bles and one for actress Razzie for her appearance in Johnny & Clyde.
For his work in Expend4bles, Sylvester Stallone was also awarded the Razzie, also referred to as the Golden Raspberry, for supporting actor.
According to the Razzie website, votes for the awards are cast by over 1,100 Razzie members from all around the United States and over twenty foreign countries.
