Actually, that segments is one of my favourites ever in Olympic ceremonies. As you said, truly warm, not pretentious, welcoming.

I'd better focus on sports results. Ceremonies are becoming a waste of time. If I listened to "Imagine" one more time, I would throw up.

Tokyo 2020 Ceremonies
olympiaki-agones replied to baron-pierreIV's topic in Tokyo 2020 Ceremonies Discussions
The IOC should reinforce that. Since London 2012, cauldrons are missing, except for Winter Olympics. -
Paris 2024 Presentation
olympiaki-agones replied to WD96's topic in Paris 2024 Ceremonies Discussions
Since Pyongchang 2018, it's expected a drone logo performance in ceremonies and handovers, so no surprise if we end up watching that as a handover finale. I guess Paris 2024 might focus more on values. France's motto and Coubertin's ideologies are likely to be shown and reminded. No controversies, but axiological ideals to excite people. I'd personally be happy if I simply watched can-can dancing and Eiffel Tower projections. Whatever will be more amusing than what Tokyo 2020 is going to offer in the closing ceremony. I doubt Macron disguises as Astérix boogieing in one corner of the stadium, yet it'd be acceptably fun to see. -
Tokyo 2020 Ceremonies

What are those fulfilments that cauldrons should have according to the IOC? -
Tokyo 2020 Ceremonies
olympiaki-agones replied to baron-pierreIV's topic in Tokyo 2020 Ceremonies Discussions
This opening ceremony was so boring because of the fuss by fired key people a few months and even days before the kick off? -
The organisers should have cut off a lot meaningless stuff. They could have used more drones flying around Tokyo or at least cut off everything, but the parade and protocol (a Tokyo'64-like ceremony). But it lasted even more than latest ceremonies, 4 hours of boredom and frustration. I hope records can be broken here more than ever, to forget this bitter taste.

I honestly was expecting to see a decent drone display forming the Olympic rings above Tokyo Metropolitan Area and wander around till reaching the Olympic Village, so the athletes who didn't attend the ceremony could have a chunk of it as home delivery. And the pictogrammes also performed by drones.

Well, I found out the flame will be kept lit in Fukushima prefecture. That'll be better than just watching the lantern passing by with no spectators around, but behind window glasses.

National Stadium(1964 Olympic Stadium)

I get bored each time I look at pictures of that boring stadium. -
Is the Olympic flame going to get blown away or kept lit until next year?

Tokyo 2020 Look of the Games
olympiaki-agones replied to phandrosis's topic in Tokyo 2020 Summer Games
Is the logo going to get changed into the legend 'Tokyo 2021'? -
Good way to reset sportive calendars on this new decade. I never expected to experience an Olympiad ending on a non-leap-year.

Each time I get bored of the overall graphic design, Olympic stadium look and the torch. My expectations are on the ceremonies.
