This is sort of like asking, "Which tastes better: dog poop or cat poop?" They were both pretty horrendous. If I was forced to pick which one to watch, it would probably be Deep Impact.
I realize that Armageddon was one this films where you're supposed to leave your brain at the door, but d*mn, it makes a Roadrunner/Wile E. Coyote cartoon seem realistic in comparison. Couple that with the obnoxious Russian character and Steve Buscemi's "space dementia" nonsense, and it's pretty unwatchable without a large quantity of liquor or some sort of brain damage.
Deep Impact seemed like a big budget TV movie of the week but at least it didn't go to such ridiculous extremes. And there's always Morgan Freeman who classes up any movie he's in.
