Olympian2004 511 Posted August 22, 2016 Report Share Posted August 22, 2016 My God, why does Nuzman always give his speeches with those shabby papers in his hand? It only over-accentuates his shaking. Who is the media advisor of that guy? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Rols 1902 Posted August 22, 2016 Report Share Posted August 22, 2016 Did Nuzman just say "we are eunuchs"? one to match his sex success from the opening. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Well, it's simply fashionable in these Rio ceremonies not being able to speak English. "Harmony" is "hamony" and "green" is "red". Quote Link to post Share on other sites

yoshi 353 Posted August 22, 2016 Report Share Posted August 22, 2016 With the youthfulness of the handover, the old Tokyo logo would've looked even weirder. I'm sure I remember in the Tokyo logo comp on here there was an entry that looked like a multi-coloured graffiti splodge, that would've worked perfectly tonight.

But if he knows about his condition, he is even better advised to speak from a manuscript on the lectern and not from papers in his hands. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Can't wait to Tokyo 2020 I think the jazz was Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra (one of my favorite groups). Japan is also known for loving Ska music so not surprised by this choice. This was 1000x better than the forgettable handover of Nagano '98. I hope the 2020 ceremonies make up for the bore which was 1998 (though I read they made them boring/extremly solemn on purpose, plus Japan was also undergoing their own version of the Brazil crisis, with the economic bubble bursting up) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jiejie 31 Posted August 22, 2016 Report Share Posted August 22, 2016 Once the speeches started, I wound the stream back to the handover and Tokyo segment. Speeches still going on. Guess I'll hit rewind and replay again.... Buzz me when somebody grabs the Big Hook and pulls Bach off the stage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Olympian2004 511 Posted August 22, 2016 Report Share Posted August 22, 2016 And of course, Bach is talking about ALL the other subjects: The Games, Rio as a city, the refugee team... Oh, and now he even awards the Olympic Cup to the people of Rio? Oh, come on... You know that I love the people of Brazil and Rio, but quite a few of them not really showed the best side of Olympic audiences during these Games... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
