Catedral de Brasília doesn't count, since he personally downvoted it several times
In two times, because he said it looks like an airport, even though I have never met one that resembles this. And I could not find one even in google images.

Maybe he meant the Theme Building at the Los Angeles International Airport?In two times, because he said it looks like an airport, even though I have never met one that resembles this. And I could not find one even in google images.
This looks more like a flying saucer
, it does not look like the Cathedral of Brasilia to my look.Both are modern buildings and both have an extraordinary shape... And both are "white" buildings...This looks more like a flying saucer

Burj Khalifa - 15-3 = 12 Overrated, represents a mere blink in time, and when is it going to be available to have any kind of value of building it. There are dozens of similar buildings like the Petronas Towers. They don't carry a story with them, except for being build with oil money. They're not unique. They're not a "wonder".

LAX was exactly the airport I had in mind, except frankly LAX is prettier.
(Based on pictures, anyway; I've never been to either location.)
Buddhas of Bamiyan - 25 (28 - 3) -- I understand the historical significance and the uniqueness of Buddha statues in Afghanistan, but honestly I don't understand how some crumbling Buddha statues are winning.
Burj Khalifa - 12
Duomo di Milano - 26
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 26 (25 + 1) -- As I said before, it's unlike any other wonder in game (including any potential future Gothic cathedral), it is the oldest cathedral in the world, and it is the Mother See of the Catholicos of the Armenian Apostolic Church. It's a wonder that it hasn't been featured before.

If the justification is to represent Bohemia, there are better options like Karlštejn Castle or St. Barbara's Church that is more visually distinct to me.
