zigzag 40 Posted August 6, 2016 Report Share Posted August 6, 2016 My fellow Indonesians claimed that the singing part is bad because it's before the flame and it caused a messed concept. Do you agree with it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SkiFreak 123 Posted August 6, 2016 Report Share Posted August 6, 2016 That cauldron reminds me of the sun that used to be in Disney's California Adventure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kevzz 146 Posted August 6, 2016 Report Share Posted August 6, 2016 What the hell is this???? OMG this is quite possibly the worst cauldron ever.Ā 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Rols 1901 Posted August 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2016 Really lovely. Great cauldron. Not an anticlimax after all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tatsh 58 Posted August 6, 2016 Report Share Posted August 6, 2016 I'm waiting for the lighting of the outdoor cauldron.Ā Quote Link to post Share on other sites
krow 562 Posted August 6, 2016 Report Share Posted August 6, 2016 Just now, thatsnotmypuppy said: That kenetic cauldron is stunning. Just beautiful. it looks like something from a level of tomb raider where lara'd have to find five keys to light the cauldron and make the sculpture spin to open the big door. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Olympic Fan Darcy 321 Posted August 6, 2016 Report Share Posted August 6, 2016 Very sad Pele pulled out though as the person who lit the cauldron is somewhat of a nobody to most people (to me anyway, i'm probably just unaware but they said bronze medalist?). Should've gotten an athlete who is a sure thing for gold, to make it memorable like Cathy Freeman. Or Guga to do the last part, he was a number 1 in tennis 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ikarus360 599 Posted August 6, 2016 Report Share Posted August 6, 2016 Very simple cauldron, but the kinetic sculpture made up for it and makes it look very stunning. The way it was lit was kinda boring though. Also it reminds me a lot of Doha 2006. Like, a lot.Ā Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hektor 87 Posted August 6, 2016 Report Share Posted August 6, 2016 Nice cauldron, although I do not like the fact that like for London 2012 it is not visible from outside the stadium. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thatsnotmypuppy 559 Posted August 6, 2016 Report Share Posted August 6, 2016 So.................... I'm guessing we are done? Ā The first 45 minutes were superb. Ā The rest - meh. Ā Nice cauldron lighting though. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
