And the winner of the 2022 Razzie Redeemer award is...

Will Smith for his role in 'King Richard'

I've never heard of any of these films.

That's The Woman In The Window scratched off my watchlist :lol:

Same here. I don't give a stuff about them or the Oscars.

Yeah, I love Films but it doesn't seem that the biggest Awards Show for it doesn't seem to suit me.

The only Films, I can really root for are West Side Story and King Richard, the rest I haven't seen nor liked (Dune)

I wish there was a hybrid of The Oscars and The MTV Movie Awards where more mainstream Movies are regularly nominated without the public voting system.

Power of the dog won film of the year, I tried watching it couple month back but couldn't get I to I'm not sure why, I'll give it another try at a later date.

It hasn't won. It hasn't even started yet. The Oscars don't begin for another hour and a quarter and go on until 4am
