I wasn't a huge fan of Candyman or anything (it had good performances and a creepy atmosphere even if it was a tad messy and rushed towards the conclusion) but it certainly doesn't deserve being mentioned among the worst of the year, especially not compared to nonsense like The Woman in the Window (can we charge a movie for crimes against strong actors? Cause there's a good candidate that argues in favor for it) or apparent Twitter Oscar favorite Cinderella (years from now people are gonna be watching that and be baffled that something like it was made in 2021).

neither of those films made the shortlist for Worst Feature so it's not my fault i haven't seen them lmao

 

according to my list of 146 films my ballot without shortlists woulda been

 

The Addams Family 2

Candyman

Dear Evan Hansen

Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard

I Care A Lot

Tom & Jerry

 

candyman is the best of these six but being one of the bottom six films of the year still means its shitty haha

i mean i probably agree Candyman isn’t one of the very worst movies of the year but it’s definitely bad and misguided so works perfectly fine as a nom imo. last night in soho / malcolm & marie were snubbed though

[Krissykins]

Different strokes for different folks of course, I’m just surprised it’s been shortlisted over every other film last year, including streaming releases 😂 but each to their own.

How the heck did Candyman end up in Worst Feature? Clearly not too many people bother to check out actual garbage.

Candyman is a literal shit pile lol

Wait what. Woman in the Window is good

[lorddemaxus]

I wish people here had the same animosity they have for Candyman towards Soho. A horror movie that also tried to tackle relevant themes but not only falls flat on its face but ends with a disgusting message.

I didn't hate Matrix R like a lot of people, but all theses Noms are baffling.. it was simply not awards worthy...it was kind of a let down.

Nothing will top Halloween Kills as worst movie of 2021 for me.

[The Panda]

I added a poll to see if people want the deadline extended or not. If it’s extended it just pushes the reveal date back a few days

[The Panda]

Deadline is extended to the 21st!

[ZeeSoh]

Damn I missed the deadline. @The Panda when will the reveals start?
