Welcome to Egopolis, seat of power of The Empire! No doubt you're in awe of the mighty statue of The Emperor dominating the town square. This statue was built as a sign of his highness's power and control over the lands and the people of his Empire, which is why when The Hero and his friends invade the town and destroy it, you'll be treated to a dramatic shot of it collapsing. Nothing quite puts an exclamation point on the downfall of a ruler or a kingdom like the destruction of an effigy of them. Their power and control over the people is broken and to drive it home a statue of them is shown being destroyed in a spectacular, dramatic fashion. Or alternatively, it's already been done, and the rubble of the statue is a sign of the former kingdom and its failure. Compare Monumental Damage, Smash the Symbol. |

The opening credits of GoldenEye allude to the End of an Age, the end of both the Cold War and the Soviet Union that is, with collapsing statues of Vladimir Lenin and Sexy Silhouettes smashing a hammer & sickle monument, a statue of Josef Stalin and other Soviet statues. An important scene in the movie involves Bond meeting a former colleague from the Cold War days in a dumping ground for all these statues. | |

A side-quest in Borderlands 2 has you sneak into Hyperion's model city of Opportunity and use a hacked Constructor to destroy four big statues of the game's Big Bad, egotistical Hyperion CEO Handsome Jack. In-universe, however, this doesn't necessarily detract from Jack's power, and it simply just pisses him off, swearing to build statues of him kicking you in the junk to replace those you've toppled. | |

Tolkien's Legendarium: In the Dwarf intro to The Lord of the Rings Online, the statue of Thorin Oakenshield has been torn down by the Dourhand clan and a statue of Skorgrim, the Dourhands' ancestor, erected in its place. The Gorthaur from Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor is a giant statue depicting Sauron dominating the kings of Men. It doubles as a gate blocking one of the few exits from Mordor, so Hirgon destroys it with dynamite to allow his people to escape. This has the added bonus of luring out one of Sauron's lieutenants for Talion to confront. The sequel to the above, Middle-earth: Shadow of War, has different monuments for each of the Orc tribes. Talion can destroy them for experience points and gems. |

Avatar: The Last Airbender: In the Avatar: The Last Airbender episode "Sozin's Comet, Part 2", King Bumi topples the statue of the Firelord as part of his reconquering of the city, while every firebender is powerless due to a solar eclipse. It should be noted that the statue is several stories tall, apparently solid on the inside and Bumi uses it to destroy the Fire Nation bridges that lead to the city. The Sequel Series The Legend of Korra also features this trope at the end of Book 2: Unalaq (fussed with Vaatu) topples Aang's statue while in giant form to symbolize the victory of the new "Dark Avatar". |

Arcanum: Of Steamworks & Magick Obscura: One of the first sights in Dernholm (formerly capital of the greatest kingdom on the continent) is a statue of the king tilted at a crazy angle and lying in a mudpit. Here it's not a sign of vandalism or rebellion but simple neglect, the kingdom refusing to embrace the ways of technology (even after being defeated by a modernized army) being singlehandedly responsible for its decay. | |

Age of Mythology: In Titans, you have to destroy several statues of General Melagius before dealing with him in person, in this case because smashing statues grant you gifts and bonuses. In general, destroying the statues Egyptians build to their gods will prevent them from gathering the Divine Favor resource, and in the case of worshippers of Isis it will allow the player to use divine powers against them (since Isis' monuments forbid the use of them). |

In the Judge Dredd storyline "Day of Chaos", the colossal Statue of Judgement (which symbolically dwarfs the Statue of Liberty in the series) is toppled by the forces attacking Mega-City One. It's not just symbolic in this case — the statue was the headquarters of the Judges' surveillance and electronic tracking activities and its destruction creates many blind spots in the city. | |

Journey to the West (1996) has the memorial statue of the Long Armed Ape getting dismantled when the citizens of Lei-yin decide to worship Sun Wukong instead by erecting a new statue. The Long Armed Ape is not amused, and after threatening the citizens, then decides to destroy Wukong's statue himself. | |

The Firefly episode "Jaynestown" has an interesting variation, when Jayne discovers that he is celebrated as a Robin Hood-style folk hero by a town of slaves, complete with a statue in his likeness. By the end of the episode, Jayne's true nature is revealed to the townsfolk, and Jayne angrily pushes over the statue himself. Later, he remarks to Mal that nobody in town seemed to care what he really was, and they were probably rebuilding the statue as he spoke. | |

Family Guy: In "If I'm Dyin', I'm Lyin'", Peter lies that he's a miracle healer and people start to worship him and erect a gold statue of him, which leads to God sending plagues down upon him. This culminates in a Bolt of Divine Retribution toppling the statue, which falls on Chris (the final plague is the death of the firstborn son). | |

StarCraft II: The opening cinematic of Heart of the Swarm, which is a dream or possibly a vision of the future by Kerrigan, includes a shot of the Zerg Swarm knocking over a statue of Mengsk on Korhal. In the game itself, any level that takes place on Korhal invariably has destructible icons of Mengsk for the player to attack. Including one multiplayer map, in which it is well-known for players to go out of their way to destroy the Mengsk statue even while concentrating on their opponent. | |

Crackdown: As a sign of how badly things have become in Pacific City, Don Domingo Garcia, one of the three ganglords ruling over the city, had a gigantic statue of himself built on the cliffside overlooking his mansion villa in La Mugre. Once you've dealt with him, the residents of La Mugre are shown tearing it down. | |
