no, it was FAR bigger than any competition, the whole world was watching.
Well, yeah, but the way people are talking about this it is almost like they are accusing the Chinese of "cheating." To be clear, I don't mean people on this forum, I mean the press, media etc.

However they were fired live on the night, however when they cut to the helicopter scenes it cut to the computer generated footprints,

According to the chinese.....this was because of not being able to get a helicopter near or quick enough to follow the eleven firing sites on route to the stadium when they fired in sequence, plus I guess the safety of the pilots, and maybe the negative press reporting on the smog issues in beijing, plus the world was watching and they couldn`t take any risks!
Personally I thought the stadium fireworks were ok, but not that special!

Chinese fireworks are good and all but for more creativity and nicer fireworks I would say Japanese fireworks are better. The fireworks around the stadium was pretty good but like you said not the best though I do say this Olympics is probably the best ever hosted.
Yeah I agree about the Japanese fireworks being much better...............even those video`s of Italian shells would be more classier!
The beijing olympic opening ceremony for me was very colourful, loud and clever with the scroll etc, although the Archer (lighting the flame) in Barcelona still leaves a lasting impression!
