No, I think it's a bit more complicated and meaningful than that. The building, is like the world, and the people in it are humanity. Uwe Boll's filming project is probably yet another politically unstable country trying to amass a nuclear stockpile while Uwe Boll himself is probably the wreckless dictator with little regard for the lives of his followers or those of neighboring countries, uncaring of what may be sacrificed in order to attain his ambitions. The middle-aged man is probably some guy trying to warn the world about the dictator and how he must be stopped, but no one's taking him seriously, sort of like the guy who addressed the U.N. before WWII about the rising nazi threat. You and Kaede were probably neutral Super Powers such as the U.S. and Britain that were unwilling to make any serious attempt to stop this threat and did nothing more than talk it out, and the collapsing building signified...well, you know.
Jedilink. You. Are. BRILLIANT!
Who else could have possibly foreseen this?
