While it was a visually stimulating show, in retrospect it absolutely lacked originality. Virtually every segment was a copy from a previous show.
Opening drums - Athens
Fire - Sydney
Monster/lost boy - Salt Lake
Piano - Beijing
Arrival of the flame by boat and pier - Melbourne 2006 Commonwealth Games
At least Singapore realized the importance of the "grand" and "epic" feeling, which Vancouver lacked.
