Anon -- The 'rest of the country' doesn't make these f*cking movies. These crap movies are made by film-makers, a great portion of whom live and work in NYC, and have been living there for a decade or more (as that is at least how long it takes to reach such a level).
This is a case of New Yorkers making films about New York getting destroyed. I complain all the time that I am sick of seeing new york in every f*cking movie. Apparently, according to filmmakers, not only do cities not get destroyed, unless it be NYC, but no one falls in love or gets up to hilarious hijinks anywhere else on the globe, either. Apparently everyone 'working class' anywhere in the world has a brooklyn accent. I thought this was true, until I saw Alexander the Great; I was fairly sure it was unlikely macedonian soldiers said 'badda bing, badda boom' when debating military tactics, although I guess I wasn't there.
