[Scoutboe]

I was there!! And yes I'm proud about that.

[TheChampiooons]

hong kong is a great city

i visited it in 2008 an i'll come this year in summer 2010

[BenceHun5]

volt egy olyan rész amikor azt hallottam mint akit basztak volna OO,

[ITbiker2020]

hong kong is

[rhys21kipling]

shit

[oakleychan]

aren't you just proud to be a HKNESE ;)

[loytm]

wah what leh?...got a lot of smoke meh/ little fireworks only worr..very geng meh?

i felt boring looking this..i am just looking at the background, the skyline of Hong Kong

[presidentevil4]

yes., that is wot im thinkin as well... could have more firework.

[PortfolioManager1987]

I'd like to know how they do the fireworks off of the International Financial Center.

[lidul]

yeah really. and they do it practically every nite too.

[POPWELLMAN]

But I like it Hong Kong has the best buildings in the world some day I must go to Hong Kong great city

[POPWELLMAN]

Times Square ball drop is way better than this

[DarkAvengerVX]

Dont be jealous that hongkong is a beautyful country and yours sucks

[NewYork9356]

whaoooooooooooo

[r0kst4r]

o0oOo Wow!!! It's a Giant Penis that light's up!!!  oh those silly Chinese people..

[justeinr1]

i was there, like 20m from the guy shooting this movie actually. xD it was OK...

[montezumasrevenge]

The Hong Kong cry of amazement:

"Whhhhhaaaaaoooooooooo"

[loytm]

why all the hong kong people so excited? such a normal fireworks..so boring...hong kong people never see beautiful fireworks...juz go and see Taipei 101 and Petronas Twin Tower fireworks,,,,far more better...

Hong Kong should improve their fireworks skill!!! they got beautiful skyline but poor fireworks,,,not a good combination...

improve next year, hong kong!

[bharbzsyete]

so wat,,at lis everynyt in hong kong u can see they symphony of lights,,

[loytm]

thats mean only light show and a little bit fireworks loh...not even more than 5 minutes...SHAMEFUL...admit that lah...yes..u all got a lot of buildings with lights..but people celebrate new year with grand massive fireworks...lights oso can see everyday...boring....

[bleachlover124]

dude there like a mile across from that building to see them from there it has to be good and some ppl like the simplier things in life

[loytm]

people should celebrate grandly in new year...everyone does tat..and even hong kong people wished their fireworks would be better..

[shiryuuclone]

u no this was just the pre coutdown part of the fireworks show right ? and your kind of a fag rofl

[loytm]

oh man...dun say other people when u do not know much...hong kong has beautiful skyline..of course the lights there are good..but not the fireworks absolutely...they need to improve..try to compare with Taipei 101 and Petronas Towers, and im sure u will have nothing to say...and do u know i am fireworks expert...do not undermind my capability in analysing fireworks..

[shiryuuclone]

im sure your an expert on all things firework rofl. let me explain though, people build things due to necessity not cause they feel like it. Taipei 101 is gonna be the tallest too bad it doesn't matter the skyline is a side effect to economic dominance but not a cause.

[loytm]

but now it is not the matter of building things..its fireworks...wat is the purpose of fireworks? to celebrate a main event...to give excitement to people...and to beautify the surrounding...it doesnt give excitement to people...it beautify a little bit only..and it makes no one feel like a main celebration...Taipei 101 individual building has beautiful fireworks, but no skyline,due to Taipei condition now..but dun put the problem to other city,figure out urself first

[shiryuuclone]

whats taipei's condition? also building is not equipped with fireworks douche bag, new years is just an event. Most consider Hong Kong's fireworks to be good though i am not sure what other problem your referring to. Now you can say that you don't like Hong Kong which probably is true, or your just again, A FAG, cause your pmsing about fireworks that isn't bad in terms of majority opinion. Lastly read what you type to yourself and then explain to me wtf your talking about.

[loytm]

do u understand wat am i talking now...if u dun understand..then shut..listen carefully, i do not say that i dislike Hong Kong, i like tia city especially its skyline, but not their fireworks...they need improvement on tiz..yes..new year is juz an event..but this grand event is celebrated tremendously everywhere around the world..nobody can take this lightly except u..it marks the begining of a new year...previously i typed it very clearly to u explaining the situation, only u dun understand..

[shiryuuclone]

and i believe i typed pretty clearly too, 1st learn to spell correctly, 2nd your pretty gay if you think your an expert judge on fireworks rofl. You can do much worse then Hong Kong, we here in New York don't really have fireworks FYI lol.

[loytm]

this is comment page, not english essay writing, i juz wan to make it short for u to understand, but it seem u dun understand at all, i will do nothing, not even worse, bcoz i dun even had enough money to buy all these fireworks,u in New York no fireworks...too bad...worst...but i juz comment on Hong Kong fireworks, and u interrupting...

[cpssnorman]

HK people feeled excited about the new year and the wonderful view, not only the fireworks.

juz go and see Taipei's and Malaysia's views,,,,HK far more better...

improve next year, Malaysia!

[loytm]

im sure u r hong kong people, everybosy will feel excited eventually during new year...but feel moody about the fireworks ih hong kong..let me ask u ...which firework is better...it can be seen very clearly..view is depend from whr u look at it..a different perspective..but once fireworks are released, the boring pattern can be seen in hong kong,dude...improve forever plz..hong kong...u had a great skyline but poor fireworks..not a good combination...

[mixmanling]

HK do massive fireworks on Chinese New Year around Feb and July 1, also national day Oct 1.. search it on youtube.. don't say HK fireworks are small, u will put all other places in shame.

[loytm]

this one i knew, they had a pretty good fireworks during chinese new year, but now the focus is on new year..new year they should try something like chinese new year fireworks too..would be better..they had a perfect skyline, beautiful lighting, but quite a poor fireworks..if they improve on it, really awesome..but not..haiz..hope to see new refreshing fireworks in new year 2009 countdown!

[loytm]

what the point of having big fireworks but with simple and plain style..period and scale of fireworks are not much focused, the important thing is its style, synchronisation, and meaning ..Kuala Lumpur also have fireworks all around the city during new year..what the point..no style! haiz..even i am criticizing on my hometwon, KL..

[pojkken7]

I was there under IFC :D

[shady110]

whats up witht the waaaaaaaa? man what happend to the deep chinese voice? where did those guys go? waaaaaaaaaa!

[elainesyl]

[kenzoling]

wt's "oi chung" ar? XP

[someguy2255]

shit the terriosts attacking hong kong!!

[punecityguy]

i say this to all Hong Kong residents--

Hong Kong is the most beautiful city i've ever seen in the world...i've visited close to 20 countries but have seen nothing as magical as Hong Kong...look at my indian cities, they are an urban mess...how did hong kong manage to do it

[DragynRaken]

If not pro in Fung Shui how can we manage to build such beauty living place.

[merritt2002]

wonderful hongkong..

[Huttersvuur]

Nice fireworks! I got some great own made shows on my profile! over 8 meters of firework own made! check it out

[7yellownblu]

Yup, I was there too!! Awesomeness. ;)

[holimax]

hong kong is not a capital..

that is good enough with lower budget

[gimmesumcandy]

so beautiful!

[morrismak]

I think this count down is so much better that the countdown in NY Time Sq where they lower the stupid ball

[alfredoelejalde]

yeah u are right, i think the americans only celebrate with fireworks on 4th of July. Should do it also for New Year

[Zephym]

The Times Square ball drop is stupid, but traditional. Many cities in the US have official fireworks displays. Seattle launches fireworks off the Space Needle, but there was some kind of computer glitch this year and the display was interrupted.

[KeleTiva]

Americans celebrate many holidays with fireworks. It depends on where you are in the country. The fourth of July is just the most widely publicized.

[morrismak]

I think this is probably one of the best count downs in the world : )
