Probably a good call... It's still kind of unbelievable.

ID4, short for Independance Day was released in 1994, '95, or '95. I'm not really sure exactly when. It's a typical alien invasion movie, only this one features Area 51!!!

In Armageddon you mean...? No (I think), it was the good ole Chrysler Building that was toppled, not the Empire State - that was in ID4 (which was released in 1996 BTW). But in Armageddon both World Trade Centre towers were totally smashed and left in ruin, since Sept 11th that eerie, almost ironically prophetic motion picture image is burned in my mind.

Wasn't there a large number of destroyed buildings in Armegedeon?
Besides, considering the 90s Hollywood trend for blowing up real places, rather than fake ones, the odds were that something would get destroyed that had been destroyed in a film.
Japan had better hope that Tokyo Tower never gets blown up. That would render 90% of their film and anime output unshowable.

Chrysler building in Armageddon, and the MetLife building in ID4 I believe.

We need a smilie with a turban on top! That one in brown, with a nice white turban, or maybe , "I am Mojo Jojo, and I am going to the store to get the eggs, so that I may have a compltete breakfast, and then make a plan to destry the Powerpuff Girls!

That egg disaster really made me feel for him. Two eggs are required fora nutricious breakfast, and he had but one, so how ws he suppossed to get his required nutrition without a second egg? Curses.
It doesn't help me with Transformers though. People don't tend to overtalk in that.
Thinking about it, a "Puff" smilie should be really easy to do. Hmm...

mojo doesn't wear a turban, he wears a helmet that holds his brain in and protects it (though it never holds much structural integrity in the back after the girls are done with him. turbans don't get screwed on.
