    Loved the artistic segments. They did a lot - a good lot - with few and simple tricks. And they can pull a lively party for sure. That environmental lecture a bit cringy, though... As for the protocol, apart from the on-point, beautifully-rendered Olympic rings, the remaining segments seemed rushed and some (e.g. cauldron lighting) even drained of their importance and special magnificence. Overall, great start... a bit disappointing end.

    This. It's beautiful but it's only 30% of a cauldron...

    Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil, Anitta

    There's probably more people in that carnival parade than athletes.

    Soulless anthem rendition.

    How dire that this guy will appear in the Olympic books as having opened the Rio Games...

    Suck sex.

    Word.

    Nicely done... INDEED!

    HA-HAAAAH!!!

    Wow, that was the shortest host delegation at the OC I remember watching.

    Hahaha, Tonga and how to pull a cheer from the crowd.
  13. Filipe_Golias
    Just before Brazil.
  14. Filipe_Golias
    Obrigado for that heartwarming cheer, Rio!

    How much and how well you can do with simple things as light and music. Well done! PS1: I'm antecipating a surprising Olympic rings demonstration... PS2: I want a tricycle and one of those riders' clothing.

    Portugal

    João Rodrigues (windsurfer) will be the Portuguese flagbearer at the opening ceremony. At 44 years of age, he will be competing at his SEVENTH consecutive Olympics, having debuted in Barcelona 1992.

    Shortest distance between consecutive Winter Olympic host cities since Innsbruck '64-Grenoble '68.

    Blah. But hardly a choice here. At least, Beijing's out for the next 50 years, hopefully...
  20. Filipe_Golias
    MUUUCH better ceremony. Great blending of traditional and modern, with creativity and emotion that I seldom saw at the opening.

    Regardless of the overall high standard, there was just too much of Athens 2004 OC for it to go unnoticed and uncommented. Such a praised artistic director should've known better. That burning ring thing will stay inside the stadium? Not in that position, I expect. Maybe it'll be placed on the roof rim. Nor judge's oath! Prepare for some serious rigging!
  22. Filipe_Golias
    Another cauldron outside the main stadium... and a pretty unimpressive one.
  23. Filipe_Golias
    Wow!
  24. Filipe_Golias
    Oh Aliyeva, you think poorly of yourselves. Two years to put these Games up is nothing for a country that erected a huge arena for Eurovision in less than a year.
  25. Filipe_Golias
    Wow, they really don't restrain from rubbing themselves over and over... Great, immense, God-bless State of Azerbaijan!
