    What do you think of OG08 Opening Ceremony?

    Is the opening ceremony a breathtaking one?

    Which part of the show you like most?

    What is your evaluation on the show masterminded by Mr. Zhang Yi Mou?

    It is the greatest 3-D show on earth. I am overawed by it. Well done China. Perhaps LD has a chance after all. :)

    Oh no, Sarah Brightman isn't yet a has-been... more a yet-around.
    After all, she outlasted Charlotte Church, Hayley Westenra, etc ;)

    I wonder how Li Ning could walk in empty space, as there is no ground for him to get any traction/friction. He did not walk just a few feet. The walk was quite a distance.

    The Officials Song was not great at all. Not even close to "Hand In Hand" at Seoul'88
    They organizer have received > 5000 copies of song being composed for the OG, no idea how they come out with this...
    My friend spending more than 1 year plus to compose one song and being informed the song was shortlisted. But in the end... :(
