    Looking forward for the clip. Unfortunately I only managed to watch on tv from home. Pity. It's my 2nd big anniversary here in BJ, the last time was 1999.

    我就烦你们这些海外的爱国賊,狗屎一帮,到哪里都不忘记象疯狗一样喊爱国口号,既然这么爱国,滚回来好了。

    所以海外华人学子应该臭骂祖国, 是不是很合您的意?

    呵呵
    rickzlg有点偏激
    无视就好了
    楼下也别把自己恶搞成举世皆浊我独醒的样子嘛
    智障吗?

    谁给了你代表“国内人民”的权利了?
  • Cheng Huang 2 months ago
    rickzlg的意思是要分清党和国,不要爱国爱党搞不清(不过貌似rickzlg自己也没搞清楚),那些海外爱党分子拍马屁是他们的自由,可拍马屁也得讲究个姿势不是?姿势太恶心成了助纣为虐,害苦国内人民,就是你们的不对了!!

    另外警告那些靠着父母出去的“太子党”别太得意,拿人民的血汗钱到国外花天酒地的,你们会有报应的,等着好了!!

    Stunning images and cut. The colours are fantastic in this.
    I'm still amazed that countries put on such a show of strenght though. Hu Jintao seems a bit lost in the past.
    I hope I live long enough to see the end of the bravado crap.
    Stilll, like I said... brilliant images. The Gardian should give you a pay increase :)
    Cheers

    I have say, this is a billion times better than CCTV's video. You should really give them a lesson. Every time Zhang Yimou put a big show like this, the idiots at CCTV ruins it. OMG. Maybe they should hire you.

    YOU ROCK MY FRIEND!

    I'm so grad that the months of hard work by the Chinese soldiers finally pays off, not because of the shitty CCTV live coverage but because of the stunning pictures like this.
  • Stan Lesterage 2 months ago
    Is this the army that china needs to keep its citizens behaving the way the communist party wants them to behave? Yes! Is this the army china uses to suppress ethnic groups within their own regions, by using deadly force upon unarmed civilians? Yes! is this the army that china will use to dominate asia, expanding their inhumane, fear and terror based communist regime? Yes? No? Maybe not, since china is based upon copying everything the west produces. For those getting all excited now please be reminded that communism was a european invention, and it came right after ultra-nationalism and fascism, which are systems we pretty much got rid of, so it is only a matter of time until communism will be flushed down each individual chinese toilet, freeing china from a system that is not chinese to begin with, not humane at all.
    Propaganda always appeals to the narrow minded, because they don't see an army of soldiers, which is the scariest and deadliest of human inventions, but because they register what they see with no depth of field, so they see nice images of tanks, nice images of scuds, nice images of a war that parades in front of their cushioned chairs. This parade is telling everybody that peace does not have as much power as terror and weapons of mass destruction, and those who like that message are clearly not creative thinkers, neither are they critical viewers. How suitable the 5DmkII achieves their support by no depth of field, let me draw imaginative dead people around this nice little propaganda show for you, the imprisoned and suffering slaves of communism wave at you, but hey, don't let these words ruin your emotions, the beautiful images of the chinese war machine appeal to you so much that you'll probably be waiting for the war to start? Yes? No?
    Free china!

  • Daniel Rappa 2 months ago
    Good word Stan! When I first started watching this (although beautiful colors) I was reminded of the videos of Nazi Germany were weapons of war were paraded down the roads of Berlin and the crowd's unfailing adoration of Hitler. Now I'm not saying that China is like Nazi Germany and I'm not saying that the US is an image of perfection (lord knows were not). I did however love the end of this video were it beautiful Chinese culture being paraded down the road. From about 2:30 on was just brilliant.

    People with beautiful hearts see beauty and peace, while people with dark and coward hearts only see frightening evils.
  • Xiaoxiao Li 2 months ago
    stan, if you are not narrow minded, why don't you go to china and see for yourself instead of listening to the media around you. isn't western media a form of propaganda too? are you sure you are not biased? because i can tell you myself as a typical chinese citizen, there aren't as many chinese people that hate china as you think/heard there are. in fact, chinese citizens in general are very proud of china. why don't you try to ask around normal chinese people instead of being narrow minded and only listening to the haters.

    P.S. "Free China" sounds really funny.
