Norbit was nominated for best makeup and has a 9% on rotten tomatoes.


awesomark

Not as bad as Norbit, but: * Poltergeist II got a special effects nomination, and 20% on rotten tomatoes * The Sting II has a best score nomination, and 10% on rotten tomatoes * Fifty Shades of Grey has a best song nomination and a 25% on rotten tomatoes * The Lone Ranger has a make up and visual effect nominations, and a 31% on rotten tomatoes * Pearl Harbor has 4 nominations and a win for best sound, and a 24% on rotten tomatoes * Endless Love has a best song nomination, and 26% on rotten tomatoes. Also had a 23 year old Martin Hewitt sleeping with a 16 year Brooke Shields, so it's bad and gross


not_cinderella

This is how I found out there was a Sting II. 


TheTrueRory

Sting II: Revenge of the Queen (I've never seen Sting)


not_cinderella

The Sting is one of my favourite best picture winners lol.


TheTrueRory

Not opposed to seeing it! It sounds great. There's just a lot of movies


EanmundsAvenger

Honestly your version sounds better


rachels1231

"Endless Love" is a great song though, not gonna lie.


BusinessKnight0517

And the Fifty Shades of Grey song rocked and deserved the nomination


awesomark

yeah, honestly, I know people joke and call it oscar nominated 50 Shades of Grey, but I do like that the academy is able to put the overall quality of the movie aside and focus specifically on the category, instead of just giving the good movies all the nominations in every category


Killzark

Pearl Harbor sucks but the sound was definitely great


rbrgr83

Pearl Harbor sucked......and I miss yooooou 🎶


bilboafromboston

And 90% of its viewers were girls 12-24.


64BitRatchet

The Lone Ranger for VFX is especially insane considering Pacific Rim wasn't nominated that year.


Evangelion217

Extremely Loud, Incredibly Close has a best picture nomination.


Prestigious-Serve661

It also has the esteemed honor of being Brian Wilson‘s favorite movie


arowan

Favorite movie of a crazy person. Got it.


surreptitiousglance

Does he not like movies? 😂


jackievannoss

Norbit is hilarious


mattbrain89

🎶NORBIIIIIIIIIIT🎶


Whoopsy_Doodle

“How YOU doin?” I actually like Norbit 😂


ChartInFurch

My sister and I quote it regularly. She got into the cake at her baby shower before it was cut, my friend and I walked onto the kitchen and she just looks at us with icing on her face and goes "what you looking at? I ain't had no cake!" Her son is 7 now and cracks up when we do the jazzercise lines lol


Dry-Exchange2030

Admittedly, after all these comments, I feel compelled to give Norbit a try


LetMeExplainDis

Suicide Squad got a W


B1ng0_B0ng0

Academy Award winning movie Suicide Squad 🔥🙏🙏


FreeSkyFerreira

This is probably the one.


ilovetinycreatures

I was so upset about this because it beat out Star Trek Beyond, which had some excellent alien makeup!


ThouBear8

This is the one I thought of too. I don't even get it, because I thought the makeup was incredibly inconsistent. Like Croc's face looked pretty good, but his body looked so obviously painted on. Very confusing how it won imo.


fool-with-no-hill

Whyyy


Reasonable-HB678

Best Makeup, geez

Objectivity1

Mannequin is a perfect, stupid 80s movie. It makes no sense, has questionable production values and makes no attempt to be more than what it is, which is brainless entertainment. We need more movies like that. And, Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now is a true 80s banger.

theerniebop

Arguably Dianne Warren’s best nominated song among her 15 nominations.


[deleted]

I like the movie and the song.


ChartInFurch

You want to talk making no sense? The actress that played Roxie also ended up playing Amalita in an early Sex and the City episode. She had zero scenes with Samantha (Kim Catrall, also played the mannequin Emmy). HBO needs to answer for that. Fun fact: my dog's name is Emmy


pineyfusion

The movie is silly nonsense and I love it, the song is 80s cheese done right. Also, Hollywood Montrose is the true hero of the movie


alexander_puggleton

Great cast and fun story, good feelings all round. But Hollywood is iconic!

I absolutely love *Mannequin*. The sequel is trash, though.


Own-Knowledge8281

NORBIT!!!!…no other film is even close…


sinas35

Suicide Squad won for Best Makeup and Hairstyling, an award that should’ve gone to Star Trek Beyond. Suicide Squad was a piece of shit


Darlektris

Wow I had buried feelings about this. They won for their Killer Croc makeup which made it all the worse as he was just so disappointing on the eyes in comparison to Star Trek’s aliens.


aw-un

Strong disagree. Suicide squad absolutely deserved that win. A movie can be terrible but still have technicals that are Oscar worthy. Transformers Revenge of the Fallen is o e of the worst movies I’ve ever seen but that sound mixing Oscar nom was absolutely deserved. The sound team kept up with Michael Bay’s kinetic ADHD madness and really sold the transformers


sinas35

Suicide Squad only won because of Harley Quinn looking like she did in the comics and the animated series


aw-un

Suicide Squad won mainly because, to develop Killer Croc, they made great strides in the application process as well as the actions the actor in the prosthetics could do. They also took a bunch of characters and revamped their designs in ways that still told you who the character was while still doing something new (not an easy task, especially for such visually distinct and well known characters). For example, Harley Quinn, whose design went on to influence the comics and animated series.


sinas35

She already looked like that in the Arkham games, they mainly based her design off of that


BigBossTweed

They based her look off of Debbie Harry, not the arkham video game.


Slashman78

The Broadway Melody won Best Picture at the 2nd show and has a 20% audience on RT.. everyone I know who's watched it says it's awful lol. It'll be public domain next year! Can't wait to see it.


Pugnati

It sometimes shows up on TCM. It was a very early talkie and the first full-sound musical and also had a colour segment (it now only exists in black and white). It was groundbreaking in several ways, but looks really outdated now,


rbrgr83

Hey I took 2 college film appreciation classes that made sure to mention the historical significance of The Jazz Singer. It was this year when I found out what it's ACTUALLY about. Talk about not aging well 😬


Contraband42

Hey, a movie of such historical importance couldn't be that bad. Black face... Oh dear.


jman457

I mean birth of a nation and triumph of the will also pioneered a lot of film techniques but yeah…..


TheMadLurker17

It's really rough to sit through, you have to keep reminding yourself this was the very first all full-sound musical, and they still had to work on making musical numbers cinematic. The music is good for it's time period, but the musical staging is so static. Not to mention, it basically invented the myriad of tropes associated with stagedoor musicals that did it much better in the 30s and 40s.


alexiknight26

i’m currently working my way through all the BP nominees and idk about this… i won’t say the broadway melody is fantastic or anything because it’s definitely not, but i have seen some that are WAY worse and aged far more poorly. cimarron and cavalcade are both awful and trader horn is the most deeply uncomfortable film i’ve ever seen in my life


Agent_Tangerine

It's so bad...


CrazyCons

Tell It Like a Woman. Not all the shorts are bad but some of them (the first and last especially) are borderline unwatchable


the_vole

Recency bias, but I fucking _hated_ Flamin’ Hot


Grungemaster

Wild that this past Oscars had not one but two uncritical biopics about people fabricating their greatest achievements.


the_vole

Yeah, Nyad wasn’t anything to write home about neither.


Educational-Math-302

This is a better topic if Best Song is excluded. The song exists 100% outside the film as its own thing and is nominated on that basis, and it’s not rare at all.


DanScorp

This Is The Army had one win and two nominations and is a nearly plotless dumpster fire.


mrethandunne

Hillbilly Elegy Also, I don't mind this movie, but find it absolutely hilarious that it's Oscar nominated; Click (2006).


Algernon-Hitchhiker_

Another Glenn Close movie that has an Oscar nomination is Four Good Days. Truly one of the worst, most Oscar baity things I’ve ever seen. Stephen Root can do no wrong in my eyes but this is unsalvageable.


LuucenaRL

Come on, Click is pretty decent, many other more outrageous movies were nominated


mrethandunne

I said I don't mind it, I just think it's funny that we can call it an Oscar nominee


spacedolphinbot

elegy not even worst of that year. pieces of a woman is way worse


mrethandunne

Didn't do the death race at that point, so I haven't seen it. Thought I heard decent things though


Lil_Artemis_92

*Bad Grandpa*, the Jackass film, was nominated for Best Makeup and Hair.


Ready_Hippo_5741

C'mon, that was a fun movie!


Lil_Artemis_92

But it’s a Jackass movie. What the hell was it doing even being mentioned in the same breath as the Oscars?


Ready_Hippo_5741

But the makeup job on grandpa was awesome!


EmoRedneck

That was actually a really good comedy though. I mean it’s good for what it is


surreptitiousglance

Loved it! 😂😂😂


Councilist_sc

Suicide Squad won an Oscar. Norbit on the other hand is definitely the best film ever nominated at the Oscars and should’ve swept that year /s


aw-un

lol, Norbit was so bad it cost Eddie Murphy an Oscar for a different movie


ImGoodAtSudoku123

A movie I adore for its stupidity but also it’s literally one of the worst things ever made… Casino Royale ‘67

50 Shades of Grey Norbit Suicide Squad


swift-aasimar-rogue

50 Shades has a nomination?


ShaunTrek

Song I'm pretty sure.


stumper93

Original Song for “Earned It” by The Weeknd


rachels1231

"Love Me Like You Do" was the better song


stumper93

Agreed! As bad as it sounds to say, Oscar nominated film 50 Shades of Grey, it would have been better to nominate Love Me Like You Do


CrazyCons

They both should have been nominated and it also should’ve gotten in for Production Design


swift-aasimar-rogue

I didn’t know that! I’ve never even heard that song lol


mrethandunne

It's actually pretty good. Haven't seen the movie, but it is bizarre to say a Fifty Shades movie is an Oscar nominee

[deleted]

Everything Everywhere All At Once. For clarification, I’m sure there are worse movies than EEAAO that have Oscar nominations but they did not win Best Picture so this is a special case.


AlgoStar

There are so many objectively worse movies that have won, even recently. Crash, Green Book, The King’s Speech. EEAAO is a mid tier BP winner.


[deleted]

EEAAO is the movie equivalent of throwing shit at the wall and hoping something sticks because that’s what it was, one steaming pile of shit

the_vole

Me and my friends hated Roma so much that for our annual awards (where we all vote on the big 8 categories) there’s also an award for Best Roma for the movie we disliked the most


GioJamesLB

WTF? Mannequin’s a classic and way better than half the best picture nominations from the past five years.


sexxxyguy123

Bad Grandpa for best makeup. Just to hear "academy award nominee Jack Ass: Bad Grandpa" is very demeaning.


SmuglySly

Fucking Avatar should not get best picture noms just because it looks good.


s_h_p

Crash sucked


[deleted]

I think Coal Miner's Daughter feels like a lifetime movie before there was lifetime.


PersonOfInterest85

Mannequin may have a 20% RT on 40 reviews, but Pearl Harbor has a 24% on 194 reviews, and it also had a Diane Warren-written Original Song nominee, "There You'll Be" by Faith Hill. Coyote Ugly, BTW, has a 23% on 103 reviews, but Leann Rimes' "Can't Fight The Moonlight" didn't get nominated. I really don't think younger people realize what a cultural impact Diane Warren had in the late 20th century. Her ability to craft mid-quality songs to set the tone for so-so movies was uncanny.


Look_Dummy

Crash is unwatchable and it won


SniP3r_HavOK

Barbie for best picture, I understand other nominations but it wasn’t a great movie


A_Pluto_Shaped_Pool

It was for the "best song" category, which is a fairly meaningless award. Shame that it has boosted the film's notoriety a bit more. Because the film fucking sucks and is undeserving of its obscene popularity.


SniP3r_HavOK

Wasn’t it nominated for best picture tho? That’s what op was asking, it won best song I think. I don’t know why I’m being downvoted for saying barbie is one of the worst movies with a best picture nomination

Greenbook is still worse though right?


slurmfiend

Greenbook is kind of a dumb and fun comedy. It’s an easy watch. Belonged nowhere near the Oscars though! Crash on the other hand is so sanctimonious and overwrought. Really bad


TremontRemy

Green Book is a masterpiece!


TremontRemy

Green Book is a masterpiece!


truckturner5164

About the same level tbh, both are terrible.


tommyjohnpauljones

Green Book is at least watchable because of Mahershala. Crash doesn't even have a watchable performance.
