Opening Ceremony

[brens78]

At least with the winter games I know where a majority of the nations are from my head, the summer ones, I think google helped me greatly hehe.

Parade is over, thank goodness, it's 12:30am.

Time to sleep. I'll catch a replay of the other fun stuff tomorrow.

 

[Jammers]

Ok that's the smallest Olympic flame ever.

 

[brens78]

I was like what!? When I saw that.

 

[karne]

I kept waiting for the country snowflakes to catch alight and create the cauldron. Apparently not.

I know it’s trendy atm to reduce carbon emissions etc but whoa!

Ok, I said it in another thread but I'll say it again here.

This is the single most boring Olympic opening ceremony I've ever seen. And the "Olympic Flame" looks like a Bic Lighter at that scale.

Ugh.

 

[skatesofgold]

The Olympic Flame is way too small.

I'm still smiling about Donovan. And I think Donovan is still smiling as well.



And the Mexican jackets with the calaveras

These Olympics are already worthwhile.

 

[Artistry]

Totally boring. Horrible music medley. Really disappointing.

 

[Winnie_20]

Of course, after the Japanese video game music medley from Tokyo 2020, anything was gonna disappoint…

 

[moonvine]

Ok that's the smallest Olympic flame ever.

I didn’t really get it either.

 

[Arigato]

What flame?

It's interesting that the Olympics Opening Ceremony referred to the 1960 Olympics as the "Lake Tahoe" games
