Olympics Opening Ceromony

[masur123]

Not impressed - but what can you expect them to produce for a nation thats been brainwashed into thinking the likes of Big-Brother is top class entertainment. I imagine that a good chunk would of still thought it good entertainment if it had just been a three hour video of a slug crawling up a wall !

I imagine this Danny Boyle will end up with an OBE or some such for his efforts but personally i'd be asking for a refund.

Pretty offended by this statement.

1) I detest Big Brother
2) I have watched a slug crawling up the wall, and it was definately better than that


As always with everything in life, it is each to their own. I enjoyed the ceremony for what it was. Would I have paid 17 million for it, probably not. Could I have any input to the outcome of the ceremony, no. Did I enjoy it, yes. Does this make me an uneducated Jeremy Kyle watching low life with no opinion, no it doesnt. Deal with it.

But one thing got me a little confused why was french the first language in the announcement's

Just found the answer on the tinternet.
Baron Pierre Decoubertin. Invented the Olympic a French guy ie The Olympic language.
It had me confused but make sense

kepp telling you folks, the opposite to what you expect, but makes sense when explained.

Was disappointed too by all the references to war and the bombings etc, they should have kept to the theme of sport, make a show about al the other stuff on its own.

Cool springs to mind.

Still got TWO of them hats from Poundland still, i wear them at Xmas.

..Does this make me an uneducated ......

Education, or lack of it, doesn't make you any less susceptible to the almost 'brainwashing' type of techniques used to pass crap off as a 'stuningly good' event.

You WILL enjoy this tripe or be forever more considered unpatriotic

Its usually uttered in a meaningless and out of context way by people who are just using the phrase rather than understanding its meaning so no, I doubt it means the same thing to me.

i found it to be ok but would have been better if i was there/

The opening was class. The queen was a good sport for doing her part

So, as you didn't like something. then most others are uneducated, for doing so?


, talk about a warped view.

perhaps you should get someone else to help you with that chip, you have on your shoulder.

its clearly a bit much for you, alone.

don't worry though. perhaps your next application for BIG BROTHER, will be successful.

Went on for some time, but I thought is was quality.

[jimmy1810]

I enjoyed it, out some actual effort in surprisingly.

[super jumbe]

When do we have the closing ceremony?

[cactikid]

It's really good in 3D, I didn't realise the opening ceremony was in 3D until about half an hour before the end, least I knew this time

It's bad enough watching it on the box without feeling like your there
