Guest ruiagnelo Posted July 28, 2012 Report Share Posted July 28, 2012 why no Pink Floyd among all the musical references, but dizzee rascal making a live performance? also i was expecting Daniel Radcliffe or emma watson popping up at any moment, so i am relieved now. it was an excellent opening show. very cinematic. the message this is for everyone seems very appropriate for the times we are living Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/74769-london%E2%84%A2-2012%E2%84%A2-olympics%C2%AE/page/7/#findComment-1855731 Share on other sites More sharing options...

delet... Posted July 28, 2012 Report Share Posted July 28, 2012 So the UK has taken the crown from australia for the most crapily stupid cheese filled pointless bullshit opening ceremony. The flame is quite nice though, pity our broadcast kept showing close up shots of it happening instead of giving us a decent view from further back. They also, completely missed the japanese team.
