    I was watching the Dick Clark’s Rockin’ New Year’s Eve from 1999 and immediately after the ball dropped they cut to a shot of the NYC skyline with the WTC intact.

    My Zoomer kid was shocked. Every time they’ve seen the WTC it’s been at the start of some 9/11 documentary.

        I don’t think the kids these days are watching a lot of “You’ve Got Mail”

            No, it’s set in Manhattan and features a number of filming locations in New York.

              I think I was thinking of Sleepless in Seattle which I think is the same movie.

        So nothing they would have seen since they’re still kids and were born well after 2001

        Still kinda weird for me to see the NYC skyline without them tbh. And I was 10 when 911 occurred… and I’m not even American
