Re: What an impressive opening ceremony
One must take into account however that China is trying to rebuild their international reputation with these games, and so as far as they are concerned, they must be the best the world has ever seen. The UK doesn't have the necessity to repair a broken image on the world stage as far as the Olympics are concerned.

I've got to admit the Olympic Flame lighting was brilliant. 我不得不承认 奥运圣火的点燃真的是很不错

not only has the Olympic committee said it wouldn't affect Atheletes, you got to remember it's one of the largest cities in the world and most of the populants of the city are alive and well. 不仅奥委会说过它不会影响运动员,你还应该知道这是世界最大城市之一, 这个城市的人们大多都活的很好

Re: What an impressive opening ceremony
no point asking about how impressive the 2012 ones will be. the question we should be asking is whether the british can actually get the damn stadiums built in time... 先不用去问2012年的奥运会是否会像这次的一样令人印象深刻,我们应该问的是 英国是否能***吧体育场馆按时建好

Re: What an impressive opening ceremony
Yeah it was pretty cool. 嗯 确实很酷的开幕式
I doubt it. lol Will the stadium even be ready? Chinese people work very hard and are very meticulous. Britain? Things always don't go according to plan and there is never any plan Bs. (Sorry for any total patriots but that's how I feel). 我甚至怀疑我们的场馆是否能准备好,中国人是很小心很努力的在工作着.英国呢?所有的事情从来都是不按计划进行 而且从来也没有计划.

London's 2012 Opening Ceremony
After wathcing parts of the beijing ceremony does anyone else think that Britain has no culture and therefore the ceremony will be a bit crap. China have the kung-fu and tae-chi and other cultural things, but wat does Britain have

we does have history and culture and tradition. It's just like that someone has decided that we want to replace that with some hip hop.
咱们也有自己的历史,文化和传统.比如有些人想用hip hop 做我们开幕式节目

Re: London's 2012 Opening Ceremony
I hate to say this as im British, but 2012 I reckon isn't go to be able to match what I have seen this afternoon.
I will eat humble pie if they can match it or even do better than the 2008 Beijing one.
Will anyone be going to the 2012 games to watch and etc? . .
They should get all us student binge drinkers out - pretty much sums up our culture!
Or so old fashioned folk seem to think!
应该把我们狂闹的酒徒学生们弄出来---几乎是我们文化的总和了,或者是我们土的要命的一些民族.

Re: London's 2012 Opening Ceremony
We wont be able to top it, i hope for everyones sake we try something completely different instead of trying to do one better than China. Most of the chinese olympic guides,helpers etc were volunteers.... somehow i cant see 60,000 people in London helping without being payed
