Almost there, 1 hour for opening ceremony...

And speaking of opening ceremonies, we were talking about this one at the office. Remember this fail?



I laughed then, and I'm laughing now. biggrin


When you're feeling sad, just remember that somewhere in the world, there's someone pushing a door that says "pull".

Also, at the end of the World Cup, Oscars will be handed out for the best dive, and best injury recovery within a 30 second mark.




Focus on the beautiful game biggrin

Great job Brun, that was great! Wish Ribery and Ibra were in the WC like they are in that vid biggrin

Blade_RJ, the broadcast was clear but we could not hear or understand any of the chanting.

Thanks all. I worked my arse off for six months over that so it's good to know it's appreciated. There are 30 second edits for TV commercials as well, I saw one of them at half time this evening. There's also a billboard in Times Square, and life-size (or thereabouts) mannequins of the characters in Nike stores around the world.

As for the film. I was 3D modelling supervisor for the environments and props, but did a lot of the modelling and texturing myself as well (sometimes it's the only way to get it done properly). Notable things being the stadium, astronaut, a crap ton of stuff in the favela as well as the footballs and the boots. At one point my own models of my actual bikes were in the sports shop but they got removed for some reason. Still slightly annoyed about that, not that it makes much difference to the final thing.

Will probably be sick of seeing it in a months time smile

There was a few video pauses (10 > 30 secs) in the first half but the audio was still there.


There was only 16 squadrons of RAF fighters that used 100 octane during the BoB.
The Fw190A could not fly with the outer cannon removed.
There was no Fw190A-8s flying with the JGs in 1945.

Just an FYI, Univision is streaming all the games from the first two rounds online in the U.S. The websites in spanish, as is the commentary, but the games still international wink


All right, sweethearts, what are you waiting for? Breakfast in bed? Another glorious day in the corps! A day in the Marine Corps is like a day on the farm. Every meal's a banquet! Every paycheck a fortune! Every formation a parade! I LOVE the corps!

So the US plays Portugal next. Should I be worried?

Considering that Portugal got shellacked by Germany I think they will be out for blood!
