Sydney 2000 was regarded as "the grandest and the best game ever"

Beijing was staged as "the best opening ceremony and the exceptional games ever"

Can London surpass these spectacular performances of Sydney and Beijing?

  1. no


  2. Perhaps you are confusing, as did the Chinese, the games with the spectacle. The opening and closing show was unique to China. Every show is unique to each country. The games them selves are the games. And the participants make the games, good or bad depends on their behaviour and the behaviour of the citizens of the country they are held in.  Some people try for there own agenda to make it all political and in some ways they are. But the goal is the unity not the politics.  Meaning, to show that we are really one people, we all feel the same thing and want the same things.

  3. 4 years to put something together, it will be nothing like the 8 minutes we had in the closing ceremony and within that time it will be hard to judge what will happen, in order to make it a great games there will ahve to be some good records set and the athletes will have to make it great, the opening and closing ceremonies dont make a games great there are so many factors like the stadiums and facilities provided to athletes and spectators.

  4. Well, considering London is such a large, cultured, wealthy city, I'm sure that they will pull of something just as good, if not better than the Beijing games.  

  5. Not a chance in h**l.

  6. "I think most of the people in the world know already what is London. China and Australia has a different culture as well as England. China is the fastest growing economy in the world today. It is an emerging power from the thirld world. China spent a lot of money in preparation for the olympics and they said the dream came true after more than a hundred years of waiting. And it's finally done they did it.

    If London will try and can make it to break the performance of Beijing, well, bravo to the Britons!

    "As of now the time is start ticking for the coming "2012 London Olympic Games" Let's all wait and watch for the games to begin"

  7. no way.

    after seeing china's opening ceremony with all those durmmers in unision, nothing could top that. their performance was INTIMIDATING!!

  8. No they cant bulldoze tons of houses to make arenas and find people who will train for years for a job that pays 10p can they?
