Patsey: QUINTESSENTIALLY BRITISH, IN DEED!

English! - they didn't showcase Scottish, Welsh, and Irish cultures..

But it was alright, without the hype.

My point is, there are many people who have done what he has done and if he wasn't shot(he won't be as big as he is now). People won't hold lennon over mcCartney.


If una appose to this my statement, una go cham spice.

Re: London Olympics 2012: Live Updates Of The Opening Ceremony by Onegai(f): 1:02am On Jul 28, 2012
The theme of the Games is "Inspire the Next Generation". So no, it wasn't about England, Ireland or Scotland, it was about the youth. Hence reading bedtime stories, a child being comforted after the loss of a loved one, the industrial revolution (a movement driven by the youth and the future), and the lighting of the flame done by young athletes nominated by old athletes as a baton-passing. Lots of Pop-culture and british tongue-in-cheek humor. It felt very personal and real, and I cannot remember any comedic parts from any other Olympic openings, do you?

Score: A+ (because it felt human, unlike the fake perfection of the Beijing Olympics, where they changed a child singer because of her looks).
