          You're answering your own question. If you get that, in all vastness of space, the computer got them back to the speck called Earth - why don't you get that it also got them back close to their point of origin?

            The ship's computer might have been programmed to return them to New York.
            Anyway, what difference does it make? If they'd landed on a seperate continent, then Taylor would have come across some other famous landmark, like the Pyramids, the Great Wall of China, the Eifell Tower, etc

              And maybe come across French-speaking apes.

                  It made sense. Plus, I can't imagine the ending having the same impact without that NY landmark.

                    And yet, that's exactly how the original book ended. Without that NY landmark.

                      So are you saying the ending of the book was better than the ending of the movie?

                        Because it was a French book. But it does end with the Eiffel Tower landmark.
                        So what are the odds French astronauts landed in France?
                        So many stories, so little time.

                          They had to land somewhere. Wherever it was you could have said, "What are the odds of them landing in that spot?!"
