Madame Web leading on Worst Picture odds

Yes, the favorite on the Golden Raspberry Awards Worst Picture odds list is Madame Web, yet another entry in the stumbling Sony Spider-Man Universe which of course does not actually feature Spider-Man. Starring Dakota Johnson as Madame Web along with Sydney Sweeney, Isabela Merced, and Celeste O’Connor, the movie became a Worst Picture contender from the moment its first trailer came out.

Madame Web went on to on Rotten Tomatoes and subsequently bombed at the box office, and that level of failure has it listed as the -154 favorite to claim the Worst Picture Razzie at the sportsbook. However, note that the previous movie in the Sony Spider-Man Universe, 2022’s Morbius, was also poorly reviewed (15% on Rotten Tomatoes) but it ended up losing the Worst Picture award to Ana de Armas’ Marilyn Monroe biopic Blonde at the Golden Raspberry Awards for that year.

Can Winnie-the-Pooh repeat its Razzie success?

Last year’s Razzie for Worst Picture went to Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey, a horror parody of the popular children’s character made possible when the original 1926 book fell into the public domain. Reviews were not kind – it sits at 3% (not a typo) at Rotten Tomatoes – but it did manage to gross over $7 million on a budget of just $100,000.

That box office success got a sequel rushed into production, and Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2 came out this past March to an improved 46% score on Rotten Tomatoes. Still, the movie sits at +700 odds to be awarded Worst Picture at the 2025 Razzies ceremony.

Meanwhile, Megalopolis slots in at +200 odds on the board, with the long-anticipated Francis Ford Coppola film arriving with a 45% score on Rotten Tomatoes . Not the greatest showing from the vaunted director of The Godfather, The Conversation, and Apocalypse Now.

Other films expected to fight for the Worst Picture award next March include Tyler Perry’s Mea Culpa (+1400), Jerry Seinfeld’s Unfrosted (+1900), and yet another Sony Spider-Man Universe movie, Venom: The Last Dance (+3400). Unfrosted sits at 40% at Rotten Tomatoes, well ahead of Mea Culpa at just 18%. Perry’s A Madea Family Funeral was nominated as Worst Picture for 2019, but it ended up losing to Cats.

As for Venom: The Last Dance, the trilogy-capper is at 41% at Rotten Tomatoes, with the first movie in the series having scored 30%, and the second at 58%. Neither of those movies got a Worst Picture nod.

Rounding out Worst Picture Razzie odds list

Elsewhere on the list, Sweeney has another entry with Immaculate (+1400), but that was actually decently reviewed at 71% at Rotten Tomatoes. Matthew Vaughn’s Argylle (+1900) featured stars like Henry Cavill and Bryce Dallas Howard but ended up at 33% at Rotten Tomatoes. Miller’s Girl (+1400), Lift (+1900), No Way Up (+2400), and If (+2400) are considered Worst Picture contenders as well, along with Jennifer Lopez’s This is Me Now (+1900) and the fourth Bad Boys movie, Bad Boys: Ride or Die (+1900).

Is a Madame Web Razzie victory inevitable?

Madame Web was a high-profile flop, with a big marketing campaign that included poor Johnson going on practically every show on TV to promote the movie. Still, the fact that the adjacent Morbius failed to claim the Worst Picture award despite being equally terrible gives us pause, especially with the low payout on Madame Web. So which of the other (more lucrative) contenders makes sense as the pick?

A +1900 wager on Argylle looks to be worth considering due to the massive gap between the quality of its director and cast and the quality of the movie they produced. However, it’s hard to ignore how badly Megalopolis flopped, with its large budget and its legendary filmmaker. Piling on Coppola, who is now 85 years old, seems cruel after his film’s performance, but the +250 odds might just be the pick in this spot.

My Pick: Megalopolis (+200)
