Helsinki Cathedral would be the most spectacular thing to be blown apart at first strike, but it's not quite in the "center" of the city. Pasila TV tower is a bit too north, so my bets would be either the central railway station or the Finnish National Parliament Building. Or maybe a compromise between these two (I'm thinking of the Kiasma modern art museum :D)...

EDIT: Okay, I would go for the Parliament Building. All those granite tons would make the perfect shrapnel :D

In the movie, they show the Sydney Opera House still standing.

Right but on the list Sydney is one of the 36 cities that wasnt destroyed but only damaged by the city destroyer. So the Opera House survived. As did the pyramids and some of the other landmarks on the final grouping of cities.

Hi allI'm looking since 1996 for such a city list. Good work. The informations in the movie and in the book to the film are not really complete.Some additional informations from my view:Targeted Monuments/Cities1.wasington d.c-usa / The White House (in the book its the Washington Monument, would make much more sense, because this building is bigger. But the White House is more spectacular.)3.los angeles,ca-usa / US Bank Tower (First Interstate Bank, to be accuracy)4.san francisco,ca-usa / Transamerica Pryamid (in the book its the Convention Hall)5.toronto,canada (Probably the CN-Tower)12.berlin,germany / Brandenburg Gate (in the book its the Reichstag, the Siegessäule could be also an alternative, because its big and in the center of Berlin)20.jerusalem,israel / Dome of the Rock (in the book its Tel-Aviv, but these 2 cities are so close together, that it doesn't make a difference. They say its the big synagogue - I don't now the name, there should be many of them)36 cities damaged in the destruction of alien fleet on July 4,2011 23.cape town,south africa (In the movie I remember, that there were african natives and the spaceship was crashed on what I think was the Kilimanjaro. If this is so, I think after the destruction of Lagos this Spaceship went to Khartoum instead of Adis Abeda, then to Adis Abeda and finally to Nairobi, where it is destroyed and fall down to the Kilimandscharo).Strategy of the AliensWhy do they didn't attack Johannesburg and why to they miss Central Asia.I think, they wanted to attack primarily the northern Hemisphere because there is more land and places to escape for the humans. On the other side, on the southern hemisphere the spaceships where "prisoned" on the continents and they have to do longer flights from south america to africa oder australia. They have to pass a lot of water and couldn't destroy anything in that time.They miss Central Asia for the same reasons as they miss Chicago, which is much bigger than Washington D.C. They wanted first to destroy cities close to the sea to disconnect the human nations from eacht other (Harbours, Trading Routes).Its sad, that all this questions aren't answered in the book to the film.Roland Emmerich should had a look at George Lucas in case of merchandising (Star Wars).GreetzJohnny

Hey guys this could be considered a companion thread to the ID4 aftermath thread. It has a pretty good map that portrays the path of the city destroyers.

Hmmm, for my two cents on landmarks to center around, in Seoul the biggest and most central location miiight be Yeouido Island, so either the national assembly building there or the KLI 63 Tower. You could hit Cheong Wa Dae (Blue House, Korea's pres. residence), but its a little far away from the center of the city. Either way, to really get the whole city, whatever these Acridi blast has to be able to cross a river about a kilometer wide at some points)

Pyongyang, you could blow up the dear leader's mausoleum (Ryugyong hotel is by far the tallest in the city, but it's been a hollow shell mostly since about 92. The mausoleum should be near dead center in the city (formerly Kim Jong-Un's residence)

Busan is a hard one, cuz there are no distinctive landmark buildings yet IIRC, and a lot of the high rises are/were either basic office towers or Korea's ubiquitous apartment blocks.

Lastly, knowing a bit of Tokyo's architecture (still on my to-go list), the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building is actually housed in one of the tallest if not the tallest high-rise in Shinjuku, downtown Tokyo. But that's gonna have to be a huge blast for the accie's, cuz tokyo as a whole is frickin' huuuuge.
