The 2024 Golden Raspberry Awards (Razzies) have confirmed their nominations, with the Borderlands movie earning six nominations, including Worst Picture. The film adaptation has been criticized heavily, continuing its struggle at the box office, having barely covered its marketing costs against a reported budget of $115 million.
