现将部分英国人的“骂声”(附上中文翻译)摘录如下:
【留言原文】Oh my the Chinese will be a hard act to follow. What a shambles the British effort was, very embarrassing indeed. A double decker bus, beckham, an xfactor winner, a sweaty aging rock star, dancers with umbrellas throwng newspapers everywhere. I guess a good symbol of modern day Britain. I fear our efforts will always be second class to China. This might show new labour off for what they are and what they have done to our once great country
【中文翻译】天啊,中国人的表演将是很难去学习,英国的表现是这么的丢脸,丢脸之极。一辆双层公交,贝克汉姆,一个选秀赢家,一个老摇滚明星,一群舞者拿着雨伞乱丢报纸,我猜这就是现代伦敦的标志。我恐怕我们的表现对比中国来说永远只能是二等……
【留言原文】The dancing was a bit straggly in the “London” routine . After seeing all the cyclists taking part,the Chinese will think “Nobody can afford cars in London”
【中文翻译】伦敦的例行表演中登场的那些舞者简直就是群魔乱舞。眼看着那些骑着自行车的家伙也来凑热闹,中国人都会认为“伦敦人都买不起车啦”。
【留言原文】The British “teaser” was ok, but we were disappointed to see the performer in the wheelchair was not in fact disabled but was leaping around later in the dance.
【中文翻译】英国人还不赖,不过当我们发现那位坐轮椅的表演者根本不是残疾的时候——他在稍后的舞蹈中到处蹦达来着——好失望呀么好失望。
【留言原文】Did anyone else this the “London 8 minutes” presentation was——dare I say it——rubbish!?Leona sang her heart out on top of a ladder, on top of a bus whilst 20 contemporary dancers did their stuff way below. It was just so low key relative to what had gone on before it.
【中文翻译】这儿还有没有人也觉得这次“伦敦8分钟”表演根本就是——恕我直言——垃圾!?Leona站在那巴士顶上的高架子上唱歌,简直把她的小心肝都给吓破了;同时还有那20来个家伙在底下伴舞。跟之前的那些表演相比,真是够丢份的了。
【留言原文】But oh, our offering at the closing ceremony was embarrassing.A red bus,a pop singer, an ageing rocker and an overpaid ball kicker was awful. Where was our great Island heritage portrayed in all this flummery?
【中文翻译】哦,我们在闭幕式上的表现真丢脸。一辆红吧是,一个流行歌手,一个摇滚老头,还有个我们付了太多薪水给他的踢球的家伙——这一切都太糟糕了。在这堆乱七八糟的糟粕里头,我们这个伟大岛屿的传承却无处可见。
【留言原文】And why can't Boris button his jacket?Too fat or bad tailoring?
【中文翻译】这句话是说他们市长的:为什么Boris上衣的扣子不扣起来?他太胖了还是衣服剪裁不合适?
【留言原文】I've just watched the Olympic closing ceremony, and as I feared, Britain's contribution was embarassing and totally pathetic - I just hope they manage to do better in 2012. It will obviously be impossible to rival the spectacular pageant that Beijing provided, but I thought the dancing (if you can call that dancing) and the Leona Lewis/Jimmy Page effort was just pitiful. Hopefully, we can ditch all this government inspired 'Cool Britannia' garbage and present something a bit more slick and professional.
【中文翻译】刚看了闭幕式,跟我担心的一样,英国的表现真丢人而且完全令人失望,我只希望他们2012年能搞好点儿。很明显我们没法跟北京搞出的壮观场面好点,但我想那些舞蹈(如果你管那个叫舞蹈)和俩歌手的表演都很令人遗憾。希望我们能够摆脱政府提倡的那些“酷酷的大不列颠”的垃圾,展现一些更专业和娴熟的东西。
【留言原文】I agree that Adrian Childs was poor: he seemed to think that he was on the One Show. The London Bus routine was pretty much rubbish ... the music was poor and everything smacked of pop culture. Period.The Games themselves were superbly run. The BBC was teetering on the brink of overblown nationalism, however.
【中文翻译】我也觉得Adrian Childs很可怜,他看上去以为自己是在个人秀。伦敦巴士的演出特别垃圾,音乐很糟糕,所有一切都带着流行文化时代的味道。运动会本身搞得非常好,但BBC有过分的民族主义之嫌(是嫌BBC吹捧英国运动员太厉害吗?)
【留言原文】I'm staying in Singapore and feel embarrassed to go to work tomorrow after that dreadful showing by London 2012
【中文翻译】我住在新加坡,在伦敦2012年可怕的表演过后我明天去工作的时候会感觉很尴尬。
【留言原文】I live in Germany and, like the person from Singapore, will be ashamed to meet my friends tomorrow
【中文翻译】我住在德国,就像那个住新加坡人说的,明天去见朋友的时候会变的很丢脸。
8 minutes of total rubbish , What the hell are we playing at , That whole bus thing and crazy people was a total sham , And as for the indian girl representing the children of England well I have seen it all now . What a mess , 2012 wont be a patch on this olympics.sam, london
8分钟是彻头彻尾的垃圾,我们TMD到底在表演什么啊?乱七八糟的巴士和疯子一样的表演者简直丢脸丢大发鸟。而对于那个代表英国的印度女孩,简直看不下去了。什么破玩意儿嘛。2012年伦敦根本不配举办奥运会!
In the London segment in the final countdown at the end of the Bejing olypics was total rubbish. If that is the best we can do to portray ourselves, then what will the rest of the world think. As a once great country we are now behind the third world, Shame Thomas Smith, Newcastle upon Tyne
伦敦在北京奥运会上最后的表现简直是垃圾。如果那些就是我们最好的东西,世界上其他人会怎么看??一个曾经伟大的国家,如今却还不如第三世界,丢脸!!!
There is one word for the "London 2012" presentation at the Beijing Olympic closing ceremony...naff !This includes Boris Johnson who looked as though he is in need of a decent tailor. It would help if he buttoned up his jacket. He looked like a 4th form schoolboy.The Chinese show was magnificent. Our athletes were brilliant.Delewar, Colchester
只能用一个词来形容代表“伦敦2012”在北京奥运会闭幕式上的表现---白开水!这其中包括咱们的市长大人Boris Johnson ,他看起来需要一个体面的形象顾问,如果他把扣子扣上,看起来也不会那么?,他看起来像一个4年级的中学生!中国的闭幕式非常恢宏壮观,我们的运动员们也优秀。
Why couldn"t the BBC TV commentators just shut up when there is music on the screen? They did the same stupid thing at the opening and once again today. The TV is there for us to WATCH and when the music is on why give commentary? Also so much about history and the meaning of this and the meaning of that and the symbolism of this and that. For Heavans sake WHY did they not just shut up and let us listen to the music, to the drums and all that was happening. This was a disastrous coverage.
Hercules, London
BBC电视播音员能不能在音乐响起的时候闭上他的乌鸦嘴??他们今天又和开幕式的时候一样犯了同样的错误.音乐响器的时候,电视是给我们"看"的,为什么在那里JJWW说个不停??
太多太多关于历史的评论了,一会儿这个是什么,一会儿那个是什么,这个代表什么,那个象征什么.有完没完!!
上帝啊,为什么他们不闭上臭嘴让我们好好聆听这音乐,鼓声以及所有的一切?这场报道真TMD恶心!
606: "A beautifully organised Games all around, then Boris appears, jacket undone, looking like a drunk who gatecrashed the party, what an embarrassment."
一场有条不紊的庆祝仪式华美进行中,这时boris(伦敦市长)像个醉汉一样敞着领子突然闯了进
