2008 Beijing Olympics Games: The director's cut



Today's closing ceremony is short and sweet. Given the magnificent moments (the grand opening, Phelps, Bolt, ...) all on high definition for the first time ever, I'd wish there will be a Blue Ray DVD set with all these fantastic memories. Of course, I'd like an Opening Ceremony: Director's Cut, not the NBC version.

Here's an interesting comments about the over all experiences.

"If the Beijing Olympics has done anything, it is to push people to be more realistic, more grounded, and have a better grasp of China. If that means a good bit of their romanticism (e.g. respect) is lost with their pre-conceived notions about China, so be it. It’s a net positive because they come ever closer to experiencing China and all of its problems as Chinese themselves do."
