Annihilation

Annihilation is so bad that at least it's memorable for how bad it is. Double Dragon is so bad that I have no memory of it.

Even though it destroyed all expectations, the abomination that is Annihilation wins it.

Mortal Kombat: Annihilation

Annihilation has so many characters that you don't even realize Shinnok was in it.

Markgway · 03-07-2021, 02:58 AM

Annihilation is so terrible that I considered voting for Double Dragon even though I haven't seen it.

CreasyBear · 03-07-2021, 10:41 AM

Annihilation is brilliant!

Not to mention they made him the father of Raiden and Shao Kahn.

Neither. They're both horribly painful to sit through.

Mortal Kombat: Annihilation. Double Dragon was awful.

Double Dragon at least I can laugh at on how bad that movie was whereas MK Annihilation was literally painful to get through.

Anyone else feel stellar during the shoutout of the outworld invasion ' ANNIHILATE THEM!'

avexhype · 06-26-2023, 07:35 PM

what about Heatseeker? (1995)

Annihilation was one big pointless mess, with no clear direction or purpose. It seemed like the writers and director were just saying, "Let's put as many characters as possible into this movie, and hope they all stick." Well, it bombed like crazy, only making $51 million on a $30 million budget.

As for Double Dragon, I enjoy it a great deal. Yes, its campy beyond reason and some of the characters are clear stereotypes with not much weight to them...but Robert Patrick was the perfect choice for the villain, and Mark Dacascos and Scott Wolf made for a believable comedy duo. The fight sequences were well-done, even though there weren't many of them. So my recommendation of these two films is Double Dragon, all the way.
