Eiffel Tower Effect: Difference between revisions

Line 43:

* ''[[The Day After Tomorrow]]'', while it didn't destroy the Statue of Liberty, did make a point of freezing her solid, just so the audience could see how cold it was.

** They did, however, take out the Hollywood sign with some tornadoes.

* ~~The 1st~~ ''[[Harry Potter (film)|Harry Potter]]'' used a brief shot of Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament, and the River Thames to establish London before we cut to Harry and Hagrid arriving at the Leaky Cauldron. ~~The~~ ~~6th~~ shows the Millennium Bridge being destroyed by Death Eaters.

* ''[[Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (film)|Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone]]'' used a brief shot of Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament, and the River Thames to establish London before we cut to Harry and Hagrid arriving at the Leaky Cauldron. ''[[Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (film)|Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince]]'' shows the Millennium Bridge being destroyed by Death Eaters.

* ''[[Dhoom|Dhoom 2]]'' wanted to be sure everyone knew the second half of the movie took place in [[Brazil (useful notes)|Brazil]], so they made a very big deal out of the Christ The Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro. So much so that a scene in one of the songs took place there.

* In [[Roland Emmerich]]'s ''[[2012|Two Thousand Twelve]]'', it's the end of time! What happens at "the end of time"? Famous landmarks get destroyed! Time, meanwhile, apparently continues to flow.
