cormiermax 89 Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Looks like they utilized some cloth hangers for the sings, British ingenuity at work? Link to post Share on other sites
intoronto 650 Posted July 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Honestly everthing sucks about this ceremony! Indeed, shouldn't the signs have the name of the country in french too? No Turin just had them in Italian. Link to post Share on other sites
micheal_warren 206 Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Brace yourselves, folks - the German commentator just said something about the cauldron lighting. He said that those boys to the left of the flagbearers carry flower petals made of steel. And he said that those petals (one for each team) will play a role later in the cauldron lighting! Maybe you folks who thought that the ticket design shows the cauldron lighting weren't that wrong... Was going to ask if anyone knew what they were carrying. Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Rols 1902 Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Ok, so far It's been mixed for me. I've loved most of it. I like there were so many whimsical moments. Not so much the more serious parts. Very much staged more for TV than live I expect. But then again, the atmosphere is probably charged in the stadium. Bond and Bean were the moments for me. And quite liked the pop culture parts. Link to post Share on other sites

BethnalGreen 64 Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 So Far worst Ceremonies I have witnessed (which includes Pan Ams as well). And that is unfortunate expected much more. Hopefully my opinion is changed in the remaining segments but I doubt it. You seem to have been on a downer from the beginning so to me your opinion does not count. Link to post Share on other sites

Olympian2004 511 Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 The placards are really the cheapest-looking I have ever seen in an opening ceremony. And the dresses of the girls are equally underwhelming. But now, the real stars apparently are those "steel petal" girls and boys. I don't believe it! They will make a cauldron out of parts from all nations participating in the Games! I suppose it will truly be a great moment! Link to post Share on other sites
