  1. Does anyone know the name of the song, which was played during that CGI Rings part?
  2. Hi everyone, don't know, if anyone noticed the updated version of the Paris 2024 website. There is a part about the brand, the logo and also the main and secondary colours. I think it'll be much different from the last games. Black, white and gold are the main colours, combined with 4 different pairs of secondary colours, dark-blue/yellow, green/white, light-pink/petrol and sth like apricot/beige(?) https://www.paris2024.org/en/design/
  3. Well I think I need a for more days for a final verdict on these games. But one thing I think about for a few days is what would the most people say about his Olympics if they would have been staged after the Beijing games and not after the London games? Maybe London raised the bar too high and with it all our expectations? I think we all would judge Rio better, if we had the (too) perfect Beijing games in mind and would compare the somehow cold atmosphere from Beijing to the vibrant, more grounded and more human version of the games we saw in Rio.
  4. The blues struck me hard right now. After watching the CC I stayed wake for preparing my kids for school, after they were all gone I slept for a few hours. Now wake again, I was turning on the TV and there was nothing. That is maybe the like a cold turkey, from 24 hours broadcast to nothing, that hard cut makes it all more terrible. Well at least I can watch the CC with my wife this evening again cause she didn´t saw it last night. Btw @Olympian2004 : Gab es gestern auf dem ZDF eine vernünftige Zusammenfassung der Spiele die länger als 10 Minuten ging? Habe da nur dieses Telenovela-artige Zusammenfassung gesehen, aber das kann es ja echt nicht gewesen sein? In London und selbst in Sochi hatten sie richtig gute Rückblicke.
  5. At least the wait from Summer to Winter Olympics is a year shorter than other way around.
  6. I call upon the youth of the World. ....... One of the saddest sayings in the world.
  7. Don't know if I can gratulate them. Hard fought game with a deserved winner but the audience behaviour over the last 2 weeks pissed me off so much that I can't really be happy for them in any way. And I have brazilian relatives.
  8. Too many empty seats, and again the very unfair brazilian audience. Booing the guest? Never mentioned that in London. Lack of atmosphere!
  9. Which one is the one before the countdown?
  10. Does have anyone here seen the cauldron since the end of the OC? Normally there is a screen in the Broadcast Studio that shows the Cauldron all the time. But not this time.
  11. Will there be some kind of countdown of past olympic cities like the beginning of Vancouver O.C.? 1896 Athen..........2012 London, 2016 Rio
  12. The only thing that doesn´t fit is the yellow ZIM and GER. Would look better in white.
  13. Well I like the graphics on TV. The colour is a bit like Atlanta with its dark green and blue.
  14. The Deodoro Cluster looks like, what most of expected of the Olympic Park. Lots of Green and Water everywhere. Really nice!
  15. ...and the there were four....... What now? Will the Hamburg result rise the chances of any of the other bids? Who is the one with the biggest chances right now? Well I don´t know. I don´t know which city I should back now, cause I really don´t care if LA, Rome or Paris wins. Everyone would host brilliant games. If Hamburg would be in I would cheer for LA more than the other cities , to keep chances of European SG in 2028 high. But now it doesn´t matter anymore.
  16. You need to go on top of the Corcovado! (I´m sure you will) Well when we stayed in Rio the train wasn´t in service for some reason and we get up to the top in one of those tiny busses (7 to 9 persons) What a hell of a ride that was! And make sure to go on top of Sugar Loaf Mountain too. Not so high as the Corcovado but a whole different view on the city. For food: Zona Sul is ok! Normal price supermarked like Rewe in germany. You can buy german beer too, but for very high prices, and it´s not worth it. Brazilian Beer is very good! You get everything you need there. You will find many things that you can buy in germany too. It´s not so different. Don´t forget to eat Feijoada on wednesdays or saturdays. Traditional style stew with pork,beef, rice, beans and farofa. And try fruits! Every fruit you see! Never thought that even bananas taste so much better than here.
