I seemed to be the only person on Arbtalk to not bad mouth the olympics off on the other olympic thread so Im glad a few of you are seeing the light

 

My advice to grumble guts amoungst us is try and kick back and enjoy it for what it is A good excuse for the population to chill with friends and family and enjoy a few beers and some under or over cooked bbq food

 

Happy Olympics everyone

Loved it!

 

Was so un-pretentious, showing how the dedication and hard work of the average working class person is what made this country 'GREAT BRITAIN'

 

No ar*e licking of the rich and famous, he really done a fantastic job from my perspective!

 

Good man!

a fantastic night, slightly marred by Paul Mcartneys last live gig (apparently the Macrahanish British Legion have since dropped him since the Olympic performance). Perhaps its time he concentrated on veggie burgers?

Did have some very well put together scenes in it. Rowan Atkinson is a fantastic man

 

Would have liked to have seen a bit more of an international theme to it, I think a lot of the references would only have been understood by the English but it was for an international audience. Music wise it was far too orientated on pop music for me, as a nation we have far more talent in our music culture than dizzee rascal and emeli sande such as opera singers/brass bands/military style marching bands.

 

BUT before I get slated for being negative I thought the vast majority of it was very well put together. Should have finished it on a high after the amazing firework display though IMO rather than a cringeingly out of tune performance by PM. Fireworks were outstanding and fitted in with the theme of the torch, so IMO nothing was needed after that to end it.

 

Its here now and we all paid for it so may as well get some enjoyment from it, its already enabled me to have 1 bbq so far Shame about the road race, lets hope Wiggo can make us even more proud of him than we already are in the time trial.
