37 Inaccuracies and Plot Holes in Beloved Films You Might Have Missed

In the iconic explosion scene of the Empire State Building in Independence Day, the depicted location doesn’t match the true address of this landmark. While the film portrays the building being destroyed from the south side, the actual address of the Empire State Building places it on 34th Street, facing north.

This discrepancy, while minor, is noticeable to keen-eyed viewers and serves as a small historical inaccuracy in an otherwise thrilling action sequence. Despite this oversight, the scene remains a memorable moment in the film, showcasing the destruction wrought by the alien invasion and humanity’s fight for survival.
