Let’s take a look at some of these movies and their potential chances to succeed where many think they failed. Oh, who are we kidding?

The Razzies 2024 Early Numbers | |||
---|---|---|---|
Big Shark | +300 | +275 | +250 |
Winnie The Pooh: Blood + Honey | +350 | +450 | +300 |
Hidden Strike | +375 | +350 | +400 |
Cocaine Bear | +700 | +800 | +800 |
80 For Brady | +800 | +800 | +800 |

The Razzie Award Best Bets are never dull and always end up in some controversy. Some were surprised by the fact the the Firestarter remake received several nominations. When one happened to be for worst actress, that is when things spiraled downward. The Razzie committee took the rare step of replacing that nomination with their committee. Needless to say, the committee won in a landslide.
So, we look at a few movies this year that may have some potential at getting the dreaded or lauded nod. This depends on how one interprets things. For those wondering, actors and directors rarely attend this award show. That slightly bigger Oscars event the next night gets all the fanfare. However, this is all about tongue in cheek give and take. The Razzie Awards hold their place in an albeit dubious way.
Now, let’s see what the numbers have cooked up. As always, expect some fluctuation with these and potentially a few more new entries between now and January. It is funny how the movie industry works sometimes. Also, it is possible to see some god-awful films come out during the Fall and holiday season. One never knows what surprises, err extra raspberries, may come. Some movies keep trending upward and some are sliding back.
The focus here is on the upward. What films have that potential of catching the eyes of the raspberries? We detail out a few movies with a chance. Yes, we are saying there’s a chance one could very well take home “Worst Film Of 2023.” After all, bad and worse have no bounds when it comes to this awards show.
So, can 80 For Brady be the big mover that wins for worst film? One cannot underestimate the power and pull of Tom Brady, NFL football, and the older generation The movie directed by Kyle Marvin had a campy screenplay to go with the film. Also, the 2023 movie was a surprising 98 minutes. Some felt that it dragged even at that length. The Razzie Award Best Bets point to a few other things too.
Now, the goofs in this movie are legendary. Only Sally Field was younger than 80 during filming. That’s not so bad. However, a big one is when the ladies watch the AFC Championship even though it is broad daylight at Lou (Lilly Tomlin’s house). Oops! Again, these are basic movie mistakes that happen and yet should not. At first, when the numbers opened up, 80 For Brady was distant at +2500. Magically, football season breathes life into things.
So, screenings like this were not expected and yet here we are. Fans of the film seemed to enjoy the movie but there is little in-between here. Either most lampoon this for a complete lack of plot and hate it or they enjoy the romp-like film. Again, four lifelong friends journeying to realize their dream of seeing Tom Brady in the Super Bowl screams well what did you expect?
Simply, numbers predictably shortened with the start of the NFL season. With Tom Brady retired, now 80 For Brady is +800 almost across the board. There even lies a possibility this could slide towards second or third-favorite status. Do not sleep on this film for the Razzie’s. It may be worth a small wager now before this ends up around +400 or +500.
Okay, a few more films may be worthy of consideration in the Razzie Award Best Bets. Bluntly, this seems pretty easy. A successful formula of being bad or awesomely bad almost guarantees a nomination here. Honestly, Big Shark is the favorite and will get a nod. However, that +250 to +300 range for it is scary. The film has been stale gunned at the top and a movie with a killer shark seems to have selling points.
Alright, this somehow rated a 6.5 on IMDB. There were enough people who enjoyed the movie (80 For Brady came in at 5.9). Now, in the grand scheme of things, that means little. However, among 2023 horror films, Winnie the Pooh: Blood And Honey rolled in with a 2.9. Yes, that is not a misprint. That is one of the worst numbers seen among the potential nominees – if not the worst. Also, it’s getting +450 on BetUS which has value now.
Yes, Cocaine Bear has a chance here too. The last Ray Liotta film garnered a lot of attention in his passing. Again, it was crazy and far-fetched which helps its cause ironically. Currently, it is around +800, but +700 on Bovada which means it has a possibility of moving up as well.
For the Razzie Award Best Bets, picking Winnie the Pooh: Blood And Honey is probably the safest out of this group.
BetUS online sportsbook delivers other entertainment options. And do expect more wagers in the entertainment industry. Stay tuned.
