When I first saw Independence Day, I knew even as a little kid that when he said “Time’s Up”, some bad stuff is going to happen. The scene is still one of my favorites to this day.

Why do I feel like you are biased? I think that the Eiffel Tower collapsing is more epic then the White House blowing up. (Also do a top 10 on your hacker situation)
The Golden Gate bridge has been destroyed in so many movies that I would find it surprising when I goto San Fransisco and still find it intact....
the drowning of lady liberty was okay but when she was decapitated on Cloverfield was better

You are correct. In the special features of the movie director Roland Emmerich actually states that he did not want to knock down the statue of liberty even though he knew in reality the weight of the water would have destroyed it.

Last time i was this early watchmojo made good top 10s
For some odd reason, this made me cry.
The Great Wall of China or The Eye of London in Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer?
I Totally agree with this list, I mean the Independence Day poster with the White House being destroyed still hangs in my living room.
I'd love to see the Independence Day laser fired at a space-based target. It's like those ship were designed specifically for city-busting, containing and channelling the superheated blast wave along the ground to stop upwards dissipation.

please do the top 10 most destructed World Landmarks in movies.
Do Top 10 Golden Gate Bridge Destruction Scenes.
A lot of these landmarks could get their own top 20 lists.
1. Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco (Godzilla 2014) 2. Burj Khalifa, Dubai (Independence Day: Resurgence) 3. Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco (San Andreas) 4. Bank of America, Los Angeles (Independence Day) 5. Hollywood sign, Los Angeles (The Day After Tomorrow) 6. St Peter's Cathedral, Vatican City (2012) 7. Yellowstone National Park (2012) 8. Opera House, Sydney (Godzilla: Final Wars) 9. Statue of Liberty, New York (The Day After Tomorrow) 10. Grand Central Terminal, New York (Armageddon)
My list: 10: Hoover Dan (Superman) 9: Grand Central Terminal (Armageddon) 8: Golden Gate Bridge (The Core) 7: Statue of Liberty (The Day After Tomorrow) 6: Big Ben (Mars Attacks!) 5: Mount Rushmore (Superman 2) 4: Washington Monument (Olympus Has Fallen) 3: Great Pyramid of Giza (Team America: World Police) 2: Christ the Redemmer (2012) 1: The White House (Independence Day)
There needs to be a list of how many times famous landmarks were destroyed in movies. Who would come out on top? Stature of Liberty? Golden Gate Bridge? White house? Mt. Rushmore? Tokyo Tower? Big Ben? Opera hall in Sydney? Eiffel Tower? The Pyramids? the Empire State Building?
Is that head of Liberty statue from Escape from New York on preview picture?

I cant believe 15 of our natural landmarks are being destroyed.
I have all the transform movies that are my favorite movie of all time and in the 3 movie that was the nascar driver Jimmy Johnson and dale Earnhardt jr. and moynahan were in the movie's.
The Statue of Liberty in Planet of the Apes. (Even though it isn't seem being demolished, it puts an amazing twist on the movie to see its head apart from the body and on the ground)
6:46 I've got to save her, Lady Liberty was a gift from our ally France!

That's the best movie of all time. I rate it 10/10.
Ok the White House destruction is the most famous of the ID4 destruction scenes but in my opinion the Empire State building is the better one. The way it rolls down in stages increasing in intensity and starts spreading when it hits the ground. Compared to the White House where the laser exploses only on the inside and the "booster shot" triggers the big spreading explosion. Both great scenes its just that the ESB one is just more aestheticly pleasing.
The Statue of Liberty wasn't destroyed on "Independence Day". It was still standing after the city froze. Bit ironic since they kept on showing "Cloverfield". Although the statue was destroyed by a giant tsunami in the movie "Armageddon".
