Very Happy Its more into Hollywood Versus NY. Though, its a big coincedence that I am Legend and Cloverfield release dates were close to each other and the film's setting are both situated in NY.

New York is being destroyed because it's iconic, there's no hidden motive here. I'm a New Yorker and i'm not gonna cry because New York is being knocked down again. These are probably the same people who believe the government is run by lizards.

New York is always the target of attacks because it is the most recognizable city in the world. On top of that, you have the most iconic image to Americans there, the statue of liberty. What better way to shock people than have the statute destroyed. It holds alot of something or other to most people in this country. Thats why New York is always getting its assed handed to itself

And everyone else in the world can recognise it - being the one of the most recognisable cities in the world is fraught with difficulties!!

yeh, not that big of a coincidence. I'd say 3 out of 4 movies are set in NY. Plus, this doesn't really prove anything, or lead to anymore clues.. so. yeh.
