absolutely wonderful opening ceremony, i know i can only remember 3, but todays ceremony beats the other two by miles. The organization and timing was wonderful, the sheer scale exciting and the torch lighting astounding. After the (people may not like this) bore of Athens' ceremony, i was amazed and pleased to see such a spectacle. London, you now know what we've got to achieve, good luck

Beautiful.. just that.. nothing else.. beautiful.. China did it very well indeed.. the best Opening Ceremony ever to happen on an Olympic...
Well its understandable.. China is the richest country in terms of foreign reserves on planet earth..
They have 1,5 Trillion USDollars in reserves...
Spending 50 billion on an olympic barely makes a dent on China's huge and fat savings piggy bank..

What a amazing show Beijing has given us. It was simply breathtaking, beautifully choreographed and lavish visual display of fireworks, chinese history and culture.
Hope London can match it in 2012
Amazing ceremony. Shame about the presenters ruining it by talking through half of it.
How is London going to top that?
令人惊叹的开幕式,解说员(他们本国的)太差糟蹋了
伦敦如何能超越?

Is this ceromony actually on untill 4 45?
ridiculous if it is
(抱怨时间太长)真的要到4:45结束吗?(当地时间),太离谱了

We are watching from Australia, it's actually being shown here in Full Hi-Def, but alas no plasma to watch it on. But even on the old-skool TV it's absolutely amazing!
我们在澳洲收看的,虽然是高清媒体,但是没有plasma(等离子电视?), 但是即使是看老式电视机仍然令人赞叹!

Has the opening ceremony began yet?
I can't work out what's happening through all the smog
(这位有点迷茫)开始了吗? 这么多烟雾我都蒙了

I think 2012 may be very embarassing for London when you compare it to this spectacular show!
我想相比这个壮观的开幕式,2012伦敦会觉得尴尬的。

I've just been watching it, & yes it is a great celebration of China & Chinese culture, & rightly so. So what happens when the games come to London in 4 years time. You can bet your life, that it will be a celebration of multi culture, & World harmony, with not 1 union flag in sight, let alone, Rule Britania,God save the Queen, or land of hope & glory!!..........
我正在看,的确这是一场中国和中国文化的盛会。 4年后在伦敦,你能确信我们会有一场多元文化、世界和谐的盛会,没有拉帮结派 bla bla bla

Dunno. I was asking what London had to offer apart from fish and chips.
不知道。我是想问,伦敦除了炸鱼和薯条还有什么?

(我想说最后这个同学很有自嘲精神)
Don't they normally go Greece - Afghanistan? Why are they continuing on alphabetically from Greece?
难道希腊之后不应该是阿富汗吗? 为啥他们从希腊开始按字母顺序入场? (附,希腊greece, 几内亚Guinea, 哈哈,这位老兄以为是从G开始,H, I ,J,K......)

Those bagpipe players must be chuffing hot in all that fur. They must have higher endurances levels than 99% of the athletes theyre playing entrance music for.
Fantastic ceremony both in design and execution. Perhaps London should think the unthinkable for our go in 2012. Make our opening ceremony a world event, not a national one. Include the big movements and ideas from across the world and across all cultures. Resist the temptation to focus on our own national identity and history (not that there is anything wrong with it)Surpise the world
