Tatsh 58 Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 Okay, much better than Guadalajara now... But I miss the fireworks There are ceremonies who did not have much fireworks but were really nice, like Sydney 2000, and lately, indiscriminate use of them don't help too much to the OC (like Guadalajara 2011) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ikarus360 599 Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 If only Guadalajara had these quantity of cultural segments. Instead we got a glorified concert =.= This segment is so ethereal and serene. I noticed many canadian landscapes such as the arctic on the screen. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

phandrosis 171 Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 I wonder if Rio will follow the trend which Bak and Toronto are establishing now of doing more artistic lightnings of the cauldron and bringing the torch much earlier. The torch coming in and lighting the cauldron (almost) directly have signified the end of the ceremony for as long as I can remember, so I don't think they would change it. Maybe it has to do with the relay ending before the ceremonies or something else, I don't know. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

nobase2010 28 Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 Thank God is getting better. The beginning was horrible. So far I only liked the fire segment. It feels like a concert than an opening ceremony. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
