graymccarty Posted February 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 I'm guessing only a small portion since the photos I'm seeing are not full... but I think there's still a line outside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr.x Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 WHY DOES THE STADIUM STILL LOOK LIKE A PIECE OF SH!T?!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olympian2004 Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Sometimes it's a good idea to stay up in the middle of the night despite having to get up at 6 a.m. again for work -- or a terribly bad one, since I will hardly be able to sleep now. Well, that setting inside BC Place looks interesting. And now I can imagine how that ski jump/Olympic Rings arrangement looks like. But where are the drapes covering the roof? And where will the 360 degrees screen go when the cauldron is lit and rises? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave199 Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 WHY DOES THE STADIUM STILL LOOK LIKE A PIECE OF SH!T?!!!! I was thinking the same thing. I never was a fan of that ugly roof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr.x Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 I'm extremely disappointed if this is how it's going to look like on Friday. Vancouver...you may have not only embarrass yourself, but all of Canada as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr.x Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 I'm concerned about this ceremony a little - not going to lie And this is only the Opening Ceremony...this means the Closing Ceremony is going to be quite a bit worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor Mata Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 The circular screen looks like a big roll of toilet paper from that angle. And I understand now why the ski jumper got hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikarus360 Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Hey relax people, we still dont have much info besides the stage pics and the audio problems, i'm sure it will look 100 times better at friday. The roof is what worries me more 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave199 Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Well they can change things up before Friday with all the feedback they get in. Hopefully that hideous roof will be cover up somehow. It looks like ****. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olympian2004 Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Wait, wait, wait -- I think that so many people who witnessed previous rehearsals and said it was awesome can't be wrong. From what I've read on those Twitter accounts from various visitors of today's rehearsal, it sounds rather as a rough rehearsal mostly containing the audience interaction segments. Maybe even the sound system wasn't in "ceremony mode" yet. But the roof not being covered is a real surprise and will most probably not be changed, with only four days left. At least on those rather blurry pictures, you don't notice really how dirty the roof is. I think the main dress rehearsal on Wednesday will be much more representative for what we have to expect on Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor Mata Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Of course BC Place will look much better Friday. VANOC were able to keep the secret this far, they predicted (funny, huh?) pics would be revealed in twitter and other social media. They wouldn't give it just a few days before the big show. Still confident we'll have an amazing OC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graymccarty Posted February 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Just made me think - if that's the roof of the stadium then there goes all hopes of cool projections. F*ck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walei Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 I'm being told that it's boring - I'd say that's a cause for concern. Is that the general consensus or scattered opinions... I'm getting nervous thinking about this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citizen-Seth Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Is that the general consensus or scattered opinions... I'm getting nervous thinking about this! From the tweets I read people seemed to be having a great time. Also, many people pledged not to talk about it, so I'm guessing its good...why keep the secret that it sucks, right?
