Sleeping Beauty Castle at Disneyland, which was based on Neuschwanstein, will be turning 60 this year. It's amazing how quickly the second 60 years passed, in comparison to the first 60 (though I've only been alive for the most recent few decades myself)

Originally Posted By RoadTrip I'll never forget that first Star Wars film. Absolutely loved it. Viewing it was the ONLY thing my first wife (short, young and dumb marriage) and I enjoyed doing together. We saw it 17 times at the theater. Then it closed, and so did we.
Originally Posted By ecdc I had no idea about Hamill, that's really something. The one that always gets me is that Back to the Future is 30 years old this year. That's how far back in time Marty went, so it's been as long since the movie came out that the film tried to show this huge shift in time. I wonder if kids today look at 1985 with the same sense of bewildered awe I looked at 1955 when I saw that movie. 1955 feels like light years away from me (I was born in the '70s), but 1985 feels like it was yesterday.

Originally Posted By RoadTrip Scuse me, but I was in high school in the 60's. For me the 30's was the distant past. That's enough to put a person into a depression.
