The best of the best
While watching this live on television at a mamak, I was contemplating whether to do a highlights of this match like I did for the previous badminton match, All England 2011 finals. But after watching how drastically our national hero has improved compared to his performance back in Olympics 2008 against the same opponent, Lin Dan, I told myself that I had to compile the best moments of this match for the world to watch!
It was actually quite tough making this video as I didn't want to make a "Part 2" to it, most people would have felt that 15 minutes is long enough. So I had to filter out only for the best! This match was originally 1 hour and 20+ mins..so yup, here you go! :)
Dato Lee Chong Wei sure came a lonnng way. Listening to the commentators on him really helped me view things from his perspective and it was really not right at all for Malaysians to stone him whenever he fails to bring back the gold medal. In fact, it was pretty clearly shown how much he's been affected by it all in a recent interview after he was back from the World Badminton Championships 2011.
I did had a thought about the whole thing though. Was actually pretty inspired to make a tribute movie about DLCW just that it'll be a double of him acting out his life. It's actually really interesting to see how this fellow humble Malaysian strives his best to glorify our country and made us proud in countless ways - despite many adversaries caused by us ourselves.
One technical annoyance though! Apparently, this video is blocked in the States, China and Japan as they informed me that the content actually belongs to BWF (Badminton World Federation) so they naturally blocked it in those countries but it's able to be viewed everywhere else in the world. However, the main concern was that Facebook is based in the States.. and in effect of that, when the link is posted there, the thumbnail and title would be blocked - and that really stifles the publicity of this video.
So I'd really appreciate if you guys can lend me a hand to properly title this video and allow others to enjoy the best moments of this match!
