What Are the Worst Movies in the Worst Year Ever? Golden Raspberry Noms Announced

READ TIME: 2 MIN.

What were the worst movies from the worst year ever? The 41st annual Golden Raspberry Award nominations were released this week, Variety reports.

In all likelihood, none of the Worst Picture nominees will be found on Tuesday when the Oscar noms are announced. They are: "365 Days," "Absolute Proof," "Dolittle," "Fantasy Island" and "Music." The winners will be announced on April 24, the day before this year's Oscars.

This year awards are "giving the world a whiff of what else went wrong while the planet was on lockdown," reads the announcement from those behind the GRAs.

To memorialize the worst year ever, the group announced a special Razzie statuette saluting 2020 as "The Worst Calendar Year EVER!"

"The co-founders of The Golden Raspberry Awards concur that with all the 'disease, disappointment and disaster that plagued this last year, a Special Governors' Award is in order.'" writes Variety.

The most nominations went to Netflix's "365 Days," the first-ever foreign film contender and Robert Downey Jr.'s "Doolittle," both six. Rudy Giuliani received two nominations for worst supporting actor and Worst Screen Combo for "borat subsequent moviefilm." The derided "Hillbilly Elegy" saw 3 nominations – screenplay, director (Ron Howard) and supporting actress (Glenn Close). Major comedy stars also weren't spared: Adam Sandler for "Hubie Halloween," Kristen Wiig for "Wonder Woman 1984," David Spade for "The Wrong Missy." And Anne Hathaway was nominated for Worst Actress for roles in two films – "The Last Thing He Wanted" and "The Witches."

Both sexy leads of Netflix's "365 Days" – Michele Morrone and Anna-Maria Sieklucka – were nominated; as was Mike Lindell (The "My Pillow" Guy) for "Absolute Proof," his account of how the 2021 election was stolen. Music star Sia for nominated for Worst Director for her musical "Music," as was the film's star Kate Hudson. And Shia LeBeouf got a nom for his much-tatted LA cop that led to accusations of cultural appropriation by the actor.
