This year’s Razzies (recognizing the worst movies of 2017) were announced today (Jan 22)! No surprise, as Transformers: The Last Knight and Fifty Shades Darker lead the way.
This year’s “Awards” will take place on March 3 in Los Angeles – as usual, the day before the Oscar. If you’re keeping score at home – Batman VS Superman took home four Razzies last year.
