I was blown away by the opening ceremony for Bejing's Olympic games. Wherever the bar had been set, these ceremonies cleary surpassed it. I was awed by the precision that it took to orchestrate so many participants. I hope that this is just a sign of the wonderful games that will follow.
As always the parade of nations was my favorite part. However, I was impressed by the ending fireworks, the torch lighting, the inspirational story of the little boy walking with the China team. I'm curious, how other people felt about the show.

FINALLY! A DOCTOR WHO MAKES HOUSE-CALLS!
Information deemed reliable but not guaranteed!
I agree with you 100% The entire thing was amazingly well choreographed and visually stunning. I think it took the "opening ceremony" to, not the next level, but 2 or 3 beyond. Kind of drove home the point that from a technological standpoint China can kick our you know what. I really enjoyed watching it. Every time they finished a piece..I though WOW that was incredible and then they would top it with the next routine.
I was with you...I was captivated. I think that is the first time since Atlanta that I have watched the entire ceremony. Very creative and well produced. The kid was a great story.
I just caught the torch lighting part with the 8 runners and the fireworks, it was amazing! That firework display was so great it is nearly indescribable.
Stacey-Ann...
Very, very impressive. I can't even imagine how the folks in London feel ... how are they going to top that?
Stacey... I did nt see it.. I did see something about the USA taking a GOLD
Raylene - It really did keep getting better and better.
Trey - I know, I never am able to watch the entire thing, but I did this time.
Tony & Darcy - The torch lighting was absolutely amazing.
Richard - London must have watched that in horror.
Roland - you should try to catch it on the internet or somewhere. USA has won a few golds so far.
Stacey, I was "Wow'd" by the opening as well, I missed the begining of it so I did not see the 2008 drums being played... And am sorry I tuned in late... but it was amazing at how precise they could be with such a large cast. I doubt that London will even try to match let alone beat this opening ceremony... so far the games have been fun... I have seen a few world records not just broken, but SMASHED... I am hoping that Phelps gets his 8 gold medals...
