Parkour dog.

 

That's actually pretty awesome. I thought it was just going to be a dog doing vaguely parkour-looking stuff.

I've heard quite a few people mentioning that swimmer with no legs over the last few weeks, think he's the world champion or something regardless. It's crazy being that good at swimming on upper body stregth alone!

 

Opening Ceremony tonight! Then let the games begin!! :D

Do you really love sport, or are you just saying that because sport is in this thread?

I preferred Avatar.

 

"Pretending to visit an awesome planet, than actually landing on a well boring planet" is what it should have said.

Mind=Blown

 

So box office revenue = costs? That's interesting.

 

(Avatar's official budget was actually $237 million. People should really check this before they make/post shit.)

I'd die before I got bored.

If that's your attitude to space travel then I think you should return your hat and t-shirt.

I think the idea is people spent £2.8billion on going to see Avatar, but people complain about how expensive NASA is and want its budget cut.

But that doesn't make sense. You say people spent x amount more to pretend to go to a planet than to actually go. But those people did get to pretend, but they never actually went, nobody did. So that comparison is invalid.

 

And that's before we get on to the over-reductionism of ignoring the story/entertainment etc.
