Sunday Night Trivia: Location, Location, Location

Most people know the old saying that the three most important things in real estate are location, location, location. Well the same can be said of movies, they all have to happen somewhere. The five pictures below are from five movies and represent five cities. For tonight's trivia name the movie and name the city. (Remember that you can click on the picture to get a larger view) As a bonus, there may or may not be a link between all or some of the pictures. If there is a link, tell me what it is, or tell me there isn't a link.

A.
B.
C.
D.
E.

I give up!!! I can't type! I say, I should proof what I write before I hit enter, then I hit enter without proofing and find a silly mistake. Can I make excuses or is just being stupid a good excuse. I should just stick to taking pictures.

1 Superman - Metropolis
2 V for Vendetta - London (hugo Weaving under the mask!
3) Batman & Robin - Gotham City
4) Hong Kong?? - Some super hero that escapes me
5) The 5th Element - New York (one of my favourite films!)

Think that the link has to be to do with Marvel Comics, as 3 of them fit that mould.
I have seen the symbol in D but can't think where. I may even be one of the Predetor films. I just can't remember!

Nope it isn't Hong Kong.

A. Superman - Metropolis
B. V For Vendetta - London
C. Batman & Robin - Gotham City
D. Star Wars Episode II: Attack Of The Clones - Coruscant
E. The Fifth Element - New York City

I will have to give you credit for the DC Comics angle, I didn't think of that, but that isn't what I was going for. Both Metropolis and Gotham City are based on the city of New York so A, C, and E are really the same city.

By the way, I thought this was pretty cool, supposedly metaphorically, Metropolis represents New York during the day while Gotham City represents New York at night.
