  Wow, those high notes hurt. Talk about big hair, what is this, the 80s? I think that's the Sister Act hair style she wore at the end of the movie.

  Well, 3 out of 4 is okay, I guess.
• LJ

  

  Jeez this is such a fail
• tk421

  

  Apparently they wanted all 4 people to light the torch at the same time?
  
  Yeah, 5 Olympic rings, 5 torches. Well, 80%.
• ou1980

  Still looks cool, the media will hammer them for it, but it was an AWESOME opening ceremony!!!!
  
  
  LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!!

  Vancouver spent 1/10 of what Beijing did on the opening ceremony and put on one hell of a show.
  
  (Beijing: $300M, Vancouver: $30-40M)
• tk421

  

  Yeah, China spent something like 40 Billion, which is crazy.
• tk421

  

  You know, I think this is the first time since the election I've ever seen Joe Biden on TV.
• LJ

  

  No jetpack...

  Why was Martin Sheen there singing Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah? he isn's Canadian, is he?
  Oh, that was KD Lang? My bad.
• slingshot4ever

  Im going to be watching this shit all day today. Cant wait for 2 PM to roll around.
• eersandbeers

  I'm just now watching the opening ceremonies and that version of We Are the World is possibly one of the worst things I've ever watched.
• UA5straightin2008

  

  maybe im the only one, but i enjoyed their version of we are the world
  
  watching the ski jumping now, not too exciting though
• eersandbeers

  Just finished and I thought the opening ceremony was a bit disappointing.
  
  But I guess nobody will ever come close to topping what China did.
• End of Line

  

  I thought the opening ceremony was pretty good.
