Olympic Closing Ceremony

[Rogue_Shadow]

Howdy Hoes

Surprised no one has made this thread :panic:

What's the verdict then?
Still weird like the Opening Ceremony and I can't say I rate the music very highly at this point.
John Lennon's piece was brilliant though :y:

Opinions, predictions?

:drink:

[P_Connor]

mehhhh lol, I honestly can't say I have been 'wowed' as of yet. The music selection so far mediocre at best apart from the Lennon! Ed Sheeran might just have killed it for me though.

[Jazz]

Russell Brand on a loudpseaker. I know he is miming but it still sounds so bad.

I'm sorry but this is fucking embarrassing.

[blackie_2k5]

who won? :p

[knight-22]

Russel Brands miming really was top notch...

[P_Connor]

I think Fat boy slim, has just reached hero/saviour of Britain status.

[Jazz]

Jessie J and Tinie T singing from the back of a Roller with a few flashing lights.

I don't know, just not finding this special in any way..? As expected nothing on Beijing.

[AzzAW93]

i just dont get the octopus?

[P_Connor]

Oh noooo Tiao Cruz, Jesse J and Tinie T singing a duet of dancing yeah! CRINGE :/

[Rogue_Shadow]

i just dont get the octopus?

Maybe it's the celebrate Paul the Octopus who predicted the World Cup
...
Maybe he had foreseen this FUCK UP & that's what finally killed him off.

It's not supposed to be 'better' than Beijing. It's meant to be different.

Danny Boyle has said that himself ages ago! (On Top Gear in fact...)

Dannny Boyle has nothing to do with the closing ceremony. Its all Kim Gavin's ideas.

Victoria wishes this performance would never end :homme:

Oh it's certainly different.

Borris Johnson dancing to Spice Girls different :y:

[W103_A5H]

Borris dancing, what a ledgend! ha. He just doesn't give a fuck!

[Andy_K]

I think it's been alright so far. Only thing I didn't like was Russell brand. I mean, if this is celebrating everything that is great about Britain, why's that tramp bastard involved?

[Jazz]

I heard the spice girls got paid £10 million each for that performance? What, for climbing on top of a cab and trying to sing? Apparantly snobby Posh wouldn't do it for any less.

ooooh ya bastard ya! ooouuhh

[Al1x]

I'm preferring it to the opening ceremony! Pink Floyd was ruined though

[haz_pro]

Enjoying this.

[Gandi699]

Jessie J needs to go back to that other hairstyle to hide that manly jawline

[swampy]

Kaiser chiefs doing the who!!!

[deano_123]

Jessie J needs to go back to that other hairstyle to hide that manly jawline

she needs to get fucked, the moose

[Scott-jarvis]

I think Jessie J enjoys the sound of her Voice to much !!!

[Gandi699]

Jacque Rogge is so boring. Get some personality mate!

[Rogue_Shadow]

I think it's Wrong that they are going to Extinguish The Olympic flame, even though the Paralympics starts next week.
:n:

Looking forward to the Paralympic coverage, those athletes went through training and qualifications just as hard as the other Olympians :A:

They have there own opening ceremony as well as everything else. I think it is wrong however that the BBC are not giving it coverage in the way they have just given the normal Olympic's.

[MickyWelsh172]

Gary Barlow. Nuff Said.

Should have ended the Ceremony with that tbh...

[P_Connor]

Gary Barlow. Nuff Said.

Should have ended the Ceremony with that tbh...

Agreed. What a guy. Feel for him but such a role model.

[LSOfreak]

what a load of rubbish
channel got changed sharpish

[Manu]

After seeing the list of "artists", I decided for a dvd. After reading this thread I can't stop patting myself in the back while repeating "thank fuck for that"

[saladdodger]

And this is exactly why i think all this Jubilee/Olympics is fake, all these hypocrites moaning about how shit the UK is then with the flick of a switch think we are amazing, it will all be forgotten and the UK with be called shit etc etc again.

I think the Olympics was brilliant if your into sports and like that kinda thing. Not for me

Spotted this comment on another forum which to me sums up the narrow minded fans who cant accept some people just....dont.....like.....it and dont care about it.

I really feel sorry for those that will be glad its over, what a dour existence you must lead if you could/didn't feel inspired by the events of the past few weeks. I am so glad I am not you, you are dull, and quite frankly a little sad. Probably the sort that find Soaps and Jeremy Kyle good viewing.

[Jonny52002]

Not as good as opening ceremony, wtf were they doing having george micheal and russel brand on ? they were terrible. Monty Python chap made me chuckle a bit and as said fair play to Gary Barlow after what he's been through recently.

[Jay_]

Watching it now
"always look on the bright side of life" is awesome. Some fitty backing girls! :y:

[0rang3peel]

humph, would of preferred to win the WC bid than this total shit

[Matty16v]

I thought it was a really beautiful ceremony and Gary Barlow is Gawwwwwjjj x

[Carlvtr88]

Twice now I've watched it thinking, is there any fireworks.... No... turn it off.

Then I realise I'm just an impatient fucker and there was an awesome display that I missed.

[Manu]

Just had a quick catch up...

John Lennon

Imagine no countries

Imagine no olympics then.


Queen

We will rock you

I don't know who's in charge of the playlist and being paid for it, but how about closing with "We are the champions". It's ever so slightly more relevant. Oh and burn her with fire, that chicks performance was flat.

Russell Brand

Dafuq he's doing here

Spice girls

talk about digging up dead celebrities from the far past, that lot really should have stayed there.

Take that

:homme:


Monty Python

Love them, should have had several backing singers because that poor old geezer can't and shouldn't hold it all on his own.

That was a Brit pop evening, as in not British music chavved up olympial X factor thing. Thank fuck for BBC 5 minutes highlights.

[devilsadvocate]

The ceremony itself was good but some of the acts were poor.

Madness sounded awful, as did the Pet Shop Boys.
Jessie J can fuck right off.
George Michael sounded good but I think he was miming?
Russel Brand....hardly an ambassador for GB?

[stevie_m]

I don't know why they gave that clown Jessie J three attempts to fuck things up (we could say four if you include doing Tempah's corus)

At the start of the year we had Tupac at Cocella ... How cool would it have been to see Mercury on the stage with his band mates 20years after his death, it can be done...

Jessie J ..... Fuck right off
