Independence Day
It’s 1996 and aliens are out to get us, obviously. Super mega spaceships invade the skies, block out all the sunlight, and then pretty much destroy everything in sight. Luckily, the human race has Will Smith to save all of creation but not before those darn aliens send a huge fire ball through Manhattan destroying the Empire State Building along with a fleet of yellow cabs.
