No, I didn't like it that much because I expected Craig to actually be there :P If anyone is a curmudgeon it's the Queen, barely ever smiles :))
It was alright, much less cheesey than I thought it would be and the skydive was cool, but I think overall it was a bit of a let down. Some of the other stuff in the ceremony was much better imo.
Nah, you missed nothing, none of that stuff (knighthood, invitation), was actually included.
Thanks.
Still a a good skit, love how the queen jumps out too
It was meant to be tongue in cheek and not to be taken seriously. I think it will prove to be a great advertisement for Skyfall and remind viewers that DC is still James Bond, in case they didn't get the memo. Come tomorrow ever newspaper around the world will have a picture of Her Maj with James Bond on the front page. Can't be bad.
Good point. I thought the same thing. Maybe Danny Boyle didn't want to give the game away to the photographers hanging around the Palace gates when they were secretly filming this segment? Bond arriving in his DB5 would've looked much cooler, and would have made more sense why the kids were looking out the window at who was arriving.
But I did get chills when the parachutes opened and the theme blasted.
The camera spot the English Queen falling a sleep a litle bit. I-)
Arnold is scoring the closing ceremony. You can't complain about him yet! Haha
Well here in New Zealand two channels where showing it. Sky Sport had it live and uninterrupted, but this is pay tv. Free TV got it on Prime. They had breaks but they paused the ceremony, cut to adds, play the ceremony.
Anyhow where do we continue Olympic discussion?
However, I'm pretty sure I heard the TARDIS during the 60's or 70's dancing bit. I thought it was a hint for a bigger Doctor Who skit later on, but unfortunately I was proven wrong.
What a shame.
Yeah me to, Apparently the theme and I am the doctor played during the parade. Oh well theres always the closing ceremony.
The other half said Beijing was spectacular but "cold". Very martial and "long live Chairman Mao! Love live Chairman Mao!"
I thought the London was accessible and human. The nhs bit brought a tear to my eye.
