2012 Olympics: Closing Ceremony Thread

Canadian feed is has way too many commercials and zooming in on the Canadian athletes for too long. Would be nice to see what's going on in the rest of the stadium.

They always do. The closing ceremonies are usually depressing. The last time I watched was in 96 because we were on vacation and my parents wanted to watch. The flame was extinguished and the screen flashed the Sydney logo. Four years seemed like an eternity back then.

Anyway, great job London. You just weren't in the budget this time.

Now THAT is one utterly cool way to get your Olympic medals!

Wait I tuned out for a bit. What just happened? Why are they being honoured with medals here?

Those were the marathon guys - they are traditionally the last ppl to get their medals. Not bad having a sold-out stadium and 1+ billion TV viewers just for you alone! 8-)

WOW that IS cool!

Hey George Michael. Didn't he have a brush with death? Nice to see him up and about again. Fun song. Awesome original video and cool effects in the stadium for it. Music sounds awesome live :rockon:

LOL at George Michael promoting his new song at the Olympics closing ceremony.

^ Yeah that kind distracted from the focus.

WHO (song) and now Bowie. I wonder if they'll dust off Zep?

I used to have a big thing for her. Then she stopped eating and stuff and got all under nourished.

LOL suckfish is either breaking it down in the living room or having a heart attack.

Spice Girls were really fun.

And now back to more bad boys...

No wonder they're singing on playback, that black one's too fat to jump around and sing at the same time, Beckham's shedevil is too skinny to put so much pressure on her lungs, and they're all too filled with botox to move their face properly.

Pretty sure she's not singing and never has
