Chinese film director Zhang Yimou orchestrated the inaugural ceremony of Beijing Olympics in 2008. Now Danny Boyle was appointed to direct opening ceremony--the director of the movie Slumdog Millionaire. Britain appears to have adopted China’s tried and tested method.
What do you think about this? Do film editors good at operating Olympic opening ceremony for sure?

GUESTNANCY 2008 Olympics is a success. But I don't think it is good if the opening ceremony are directed by a film director. Not that they follow china or not, Olympics is great platform to deliver culture.

Film is quite different from olympic opening ceremony. A good film director is not defenitely a qualified cremony director.

Anyway, I was shocked by what he directed about 2008 Beijing Olympics. But , to be honest, I felt disappointed of the Uk's ending show. Perhaps, culture difference haunts...

Well, will the double deck buses appear at the opening ceremony of 2012 London Olympic Games? I hope David Beckham will perform his freekick again at the opening ceremony. If he could light up the torch with his free kick, that would be awesome.

Well, it is amazing. For foreigners they may not understand totally. But it represented very well about Chinese history and culture.

He can wear boots to kick that fireball. But it is a hard job. Remember Barcelona Olympics? An archer shot a flaming arrow over the cauldron ostensibly to light it. It is said that the archer has practiced this many times. You have to consider many factors, the weather, the wind speed etc.

If David Beckham really wants to do this, he should have practiced his free kick too.
