The fireworks and performance.. i'm actually not gonna say anything about.. it was just awesome... hats off guys
Was extremely pissing off but expected that they would be advertisements in between the ceremony - I guess its only right that they make some money off this. But the weird thing was that the advertisements were only about StarHub & adverts for serials on the channel; so dunno the whole point of it since they weren’t making any money off it.
A lil disorienting at first that that the countries were not in the alphabetical order – yes it did keep the suspense up tho. It's by Chinese stroke-order, rather than alphabetical. So it depends on how many strokes it takes to write your country’s name in Mandarin.
I loved the part where the athletes leave their footprints as they walk along the arena.
What is with people walking on the arena for their countries and taking on the Fucking phones. Talk about Nationality and pride.
There was a lady dancing away among the dudes playing the drums. Yes, they played really well, but Hon I don’t think anyone was watching you.
How come so many countries in beiges and brown uniforms?
Was it just me or did all the ladies carrying the placards with the country names all look the same
I have to say the music didn’t match the countries that came out. What on earth did they play when the Mexicans arrived
Aaaahh.. they used those footprints later to be part of the stage during the lighting of the flame
I hope those dancers who’ve been cheering the teams along in the arena get paid a lot.. they must be dead tired by now.. I can see the athletes streaming buckets of sweat and they haven’t been out there as long as these dancers
Dear Jacques Rogge - A very drab man reading from his notes should not be saying the below words:
Have fun. Remember however that they are about much more than performance alone…Please compete in the Olympic value of … friendship and respect… Reject doping and cheating...Beijing, you are the host to the present and gateway to the future…
Put a lil life into it, you know.. the words were great, but you need to work on the marketing bit
There didn’t look like there was any breeze blowing there, so how come then Olympic and Chinese flags were the only ones fluttering wildly while the others looks limp like limp flags do.
Hmmm.. just a thought, since we’ve they’ve been talking about the pollution so much, aren’t all these firecrackers adding on to it?
In all..i have never been this excited throughout an Olympic ceremony.. actually.. any ceremony.. right till the end…
I have to say, this is the best run of the torch lighting I have seen. The previous countries didn’t have much on this one. This was just all out. London, I’d suggest kidnapping some of the Chinese organisers
You also need to read these articles for their excellent commentary. And yes, some of those comments are just stupid : The Guardian , The Telegraph
