Where Can I Buy the 2008 Beijing Olympics Opening Ceremonies on DVD?
posted August 11, 2008 - 3:36pmThe world has borne witness to the spectacular opening ceremonies inaugurating the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympic Games. If you were not able to see it in person, NBC televised the ceremonies. But, if you were not home to set your VCR or TiVo, what then?
Fortunately, some companies have been on the ball and have made the Opening Ceremonies and will make the Closing Ceremonies available for purchase on DVD. While I don't doubt that they will be available in your local WalMart soon, you can avoid the rush by ordering direct and online.

On the night of August 8, 2008, the sound of heavy footsteps thundered across the "Bird's Nest" as colossal burning "footprints" marched in the sky along Beijing's central axis all the way through the Olympic Green to the National Stadium. As the last "footprint" lit up the sky above the National Stadium, spectators all over the world began a virtual tour of Chinese culture; what they saw was ancient China and young China, a nation wishing to build a harmonious home together with friends from all parts of the world.
More than 20,000 performers from all parts of China including Hong Kong, Macao and Chinese Taipei, regaled audience members with martial arts performances and artistic story telling through song and dance. On the ever-changing backdrop and accompanied by amazingly complex displays of fireworks, the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games was launched, literally, with a bang.
