Do the Brits know how to do small fireworks? Jeez, we know the mexicans are good at it, but they are the masters. They must have Gandalf helping them, since they have access to him
Also, they should have had Mr. Bean do this one too, I think McCartney is a little old for it now.

I loved hearing the Tardis sound during Queen. They just had to put Doctor Who in there somewhere. hahaha Wha!? I missed that! When did they do that!? I was hoping he'd have a bigger part, they did EVERY other british thing ever. I don't know the Tardis sound though, so I would have missed it either way. I would have liked to see him teleport the flame in or something, ha ha ha |

I saw Mr Bean! That was hilarious, ha ha ha ha ha. I saw it from the very start
What, was one of the Keyboard sounds he made the Tardis?
Did it just end for you too, or is it happening right now for you?

My mom paused the tv so we're only at south korea right now.
The tardis was in the background during the 80s rave before the parade.

They had some pretty cool commercials for this too, particularly the BMW commercials, and by extension, the Mini commercials, they were particularly awesome.

Oh, the thing with the giant house, that was kinda corny, but I guess they did show a lot of modern British pop culture. I was kinda wishing Richard Hammond was driving the Mini or something. I wish I knew the sound! They probably played some Doctor Who video on the house too. I guess The Doctor isn't well known enough outside of Britian to use him the way they did James Bond. By the way, I'm guessing the Healthcare thing was just there way of saying "Hello Mitt Romney, Welcome to Britian, you wanker, Obama's gonna kill you." |

Skipped all the commercials Aww man, well, your missing out a little I guess, but I guess your not a Mini Cooper fan like me. I was sorta hoping during Mr. Bean's dream he was gonna get his classic Mini Cooper instead of that taxi thing. |

I was confused, that nickname dipicts something far too exciting or adventurous to be Mitt Romney.

I wonder who those 40 something countries are than aren't competing, I mean if friggen Iran, Syria, and Sudan, showed up, I wonder who was too anti social to show up.

It depends on how you define a country.

Well the Olympics say there are 204, so there must be at least that many, what are the countries that aren't considered countries considered then? What are they?
I guess Vatican City doesn't have an Olymic team, so thats one.

Though I don't know if the Independant Olymic Competitors are counted in that 204, so it might be 203.

I just remembered something I wanted to post about this, during one of the commercials for NBC's new show, they used WOODKID! Run Boy Run! And they even immitated the video for the song! It was AWESOME! |
