Sometime in late 1995, I was in a Manhattan theatre waiting to watch “Batman Forever.” The last promo trailer was for an upcoming film called “Independence Day.” An overly dramatic voice boomed about the gloom of an attack on the world by little green men. A flying saucer hovered over New York City’s Empire State Building and vaporized it with a laser. The audience, likely a bunch of country-hating liberals like myself (at that time), cheered the destruction of our City.
