**** you.
Hello, NBC victims. It's fantastic.
Watching people walk around in a circle. It is awesome
I haven't watched an opening ceremony since the night I was on the edge of my seat to see if Ali would be able to light the Olympic flame without setting himself on fire.
The actual show part was pretty cool. Lasted around 90 minutes. Especially worth it if you like popculture.
I actually meant the show part not the parade of nations.
i disagree i enjoyed it especially mr bean and "the queen" jumping out of the helicopter with james bondWatching this ****show now. This is horrible. China set the bar waaaay to high for this crap.
and then lauer said be careful at least you dont have to vacation there hahahaI LOVED the joke about Kim Jong Il. Did anyone else catch that? Someone was talking about North Korea's golf prowess and Bob Costas more or less said that of the Dear Leader's 11 hole in one game, the shot that bounced off the windmill and clown's nose was the most impressive.
Not as visually stunning as Beijing, of course, but I thought it was well-conceived, and entertaining.
Maybe Nik would be okay putting this Olympic opening ceremony in the Bad movies with good soundtrack thread.
Eh, it was alright. Some stuff I enjoyed, some stuff trying too hard to show this "new" Britain. (For instance, the whole NHS thing was rubbish)
The NHS stuff made them look like cold war era soviets. :lol:
