2 hours of it left, lets wait and see

**drwaffles** · 2012-07-27 16:04

At least they got the royalist BS out of the way early.

Well, now it's just X-Factor finals as far as I'm concerned. I rather watch the beginning stuff with actions and such.

To me now it's just one big MTV/Music Video.

Would actually prefer more of the stuff at the beginning. Was more creative/unusual/somewhat interesting if dull.

Rootin for South Korea in all female events

I think it's OK so far. Nothing more.

China 2008 on the other hand. That's how you make an opening!

I actually prefer Boyle's artsy and creative approach, especially considering you're not going to outdo China in the high-budget synchronised choreography department. My main problem with it so far is the reliance on famous faces. Oh, and the BBC commentators during the performance were annoying, but that's a small localised complaint.

The wellies are a gentle dig at our shitty weather.

I was too distracted by the attractiveness of the flag-bearer to notice honestly.

**The Stig** · 2012-07-27 17:04

Oh wow, that Iraqi flag holder.

Will bang.

**Pendulum** · 2012-07-27 17:07

Icelandic flag-bearer winning for me so far.

£50 says the BBC Phil plays 'Land of Hope and Glory' at the conclusion of the ceremony.

**Correction** · 2012-07-27 17:10

**drwaffles** · 2012-07-27 17:11

Lol @ BBC commentary: "Kyrgyzstan, one of only four countries whose name contains a single vowel..."

**The Stig** · 2012-07-27 17:18

Need to get the soundtrack/list for this. Or if it comes out after the event, I'd buy it. Some of this music is nice to work/drive/walk to.
