London's Olympic Opening Ceremony concludes with fireworks on July 27, 2012.

Let The Games Begin... Now that the Games of the 30th Olympiad are about to get underway in London, two questions come to mind: Will Michael Phelps become the most decorated athlete in Olympic history? And will LeBron James and Kobe Bryant win a second consecutive gold medal at the expense of every country that plays hoops against Team USA over the next two weeks? Speaking of Team USA's basketball team, here's a Dark Knight-inspired meme that was posted on the Lakers Nation Facebook page yesterday. Ironically [or intentionally? Seeing as how The Dark Knight Rises' July 20 release date was known for like, three years (while London was chosen as the site of the 2012 Summer Games back in 2005)...and maybe director Christopher Nolan wanted to make a shout-out to the Olympics when the script was being written, hah], "Let the games begin" was uttered by Bane in The Dark Knight Rises...for those of you who haven't seen the film yet. I've watched it at the theater three times already. That is all.

Chris Paul, Kobe Bryant and LeBron James are ready to wreak havoc in basketball during the 2012 Summer Olympic Games in London.
