That’s surprisingly kind hearted given the nature of the award.

Try Case 🏤📊🏆 Low-level programming is good for the programmer's soul.

Very gracious by the Razzies to rescind the award

I learned from a doc that aphasia is a symptom, not a diagnosis. Early signs of dementia, Alzheimer’s? Something going on in his brain, sadly.

I admired him but I noticed that he was was accepting roles that are not fit for him maybe because of the money but again he shouldn't have damaged his history

So sadd

They did the right thing. My personal attitude towards Bruce Willis' recent roles has also changed. What I used to think was stupidity or absurdity is now for me the heroism of Bruce Willis. Bruce, you're always a heroand you will always remain one.

stopthatgirl7 Is that a good or bad thing

Still one of my favorite actors...
