I like to watch CinemaSins and Honest Trailers for all the movies I'm curious about but don't want to watch. It's like Cliff's Notes with commentary notes to use in conversation to "prove you watched it."
I am going to be in NYC over the 4th of July holiday. This is my first time to the city and first time flying. I'm a little nervous about both. This thread has been very helpful. I have 2 specific questions:

1. Where is the best place to be for the firework display over the Statue of Liberty?

2. What advice can locals give to someone with social anxiety and a fear of crowds heading to NYC?

Part of this trip is exposure therapy, and I am curious about social norms that I should be aware of, if any. I grew up in a town of 3,000 people and large cities are very overwhelming to me. But I am very excited and want this to be a great experience.

Thanks to all, in advance, for any advice or suggestions.

I will be in NYC in just over a week with my sister, niece, and nephew.

Are any of those "city passes" worth it? If so, is there one that is better than the others?

Thanks Teacup and SwivelTits, that's good advice.
