38th Golden Raspberry Awards
The 38th Golden Raspberry Awards, or Razzies, was an awards ceremony that honored the worst the film industry had to offer in 2017. The Golden Raspberry Awards were awarded based on votes from members of the Golden Raspberry Foundation. The nominees were announced on January 22, 2018 and the winners were announced on March 3, 2018.
With its nominations for Worst Picture, Worst Director, Worst Screen Combo, and Worst Screenplay, The Emoji Movie became the first full-length animated motion picture to receive nominations for those specific categories at the Golden Raspberry Awards and to win all of these awards. A new award was also created, sponsored by Rotten Tomatoes, for "The Razzie Nominee So Rotten You Loved It", where the website readers voted for their favorite film which they thought was unfairly nominated, which was won by Baywatch. One of the film's stars, Dwayne Johnson, accepted the prize, albeit not in person. He did post a video online saying: "We made Baywatch with the best of intentions, it didn’t work out like that, but I humbly and graciously accept my Razzie. And I thank you, critics, and I thank you, fans."
With 10 nominations and no wins, breaks the record for most nominations without a win, beating original record holder Grown Ups 2.
Following the nomination announcement, the organization received backlash from audiences and critics with three nominations given to Mother!, which received a generally positive response from critics.
