inmyriadbitsI was just thinking -- I love how in Star Trek, whenever they're like "It's an attack on Earth!", what that really means is "OMG, it's an attack on San Francisco/Starfleet!" Just like how in Doctor Who, the aliens always attack London; in Torchwood, it's always Cardiff (lol). Comics movies really likes going after New York City, as do a lot of unaffiliated disaster movies, although occasionally Los Angeles gets to see the end of the world. And...I'm running out of examples, but you know what I mean?
If you were aliens and planning to attack Earth, where would you start? I would personally pick the city farthest away from the nearest superheroes (probably Paris). And then, set up a diversion on the opposite side of the planet. I'm just sayin'.
