cslopes54 36 Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 I think the look is very pretty but the fireworks are not Olympic quality Quote Link to post Share on other sites
intoronto 650 Posted February 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 The rings are back! LOOL the ones that didn't work on the floor. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Citius Altius Fortius 560 Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 ... the lightning of the cauldron looked nice at the end - it was a pitty that the square was empty - it would have been nicer, when the cast would have stand there, too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Olympian2004 511 Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 Now that was a hugely anti-climatic cauldron lighting - I expected a LOT more special effects, especially after that amazing imagery during the ceremony. And Rodnina and Tretyak are a return to "Well, let one or two of our older famous Olympians do the honours". Quite disappointing, if you ask me. That could have been the cauldron lighting of some Summer Universiade, and even there we have seen better already. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jimjam 12 Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 a bit of a boring lighting Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Faster 545 Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 Overall nothing was incredibly original about the Opening Ceremony. Co-opting elements from Atlanta, Sydney, Athens, Beijing and Vancouver. But it lacked 'heart', fun and joy. It was just really well done, while being safe. 7/10 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
