yoshi Posted March 9, 2018 Report Posted March 9, 2018 OK a dedicated thread for the Para opening. Not specifically live chat as many people are unable to watch live, but a place to discuss the OC & keep the general thread general
zigzag Posted March 9, 2018 Report Posted March 9, 2018 Wait what more people are unable to watch it live than the Olympics OC? I find the Paras are easier to watch online that then Olympics..
JMarkSnow2012 Posted March 9, 2018 Report Posted March 9, 2018 Interview under falling snow (with GB's flag-bearer) to start UK Channel 4's coverage. Very scenic!

Ikarus360 Posted March 9, 2018 Report Posted March 9, 2018 Is that the dragon drum from Seoul 88 opening?
zigzag Posted March 9, 2018 Report Posted March 9, 2018 Just now, zigzag said: Feel free to blame C4 for that.. Anyways unless that happened you can watch the ceremony by now.. The stream admin from that video tells me that this video it's blocked in some European territories, USA, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, UK.
yoshi Posted March 9, 2018 Author Report Posted March 9, 2018 Stupid Channel 4, making it impossible to watch live on their internet TV app...grr
JMarkSnow2012 Posted March 9, 2018 Report Posted March 9, 2018 As in the Olympic ceremonies, the circular arena works very well with the floor projection

JMarkSnow2012 Posted March 9, 2018 Report Posted March 9, 2018 Speaking of commercials- first UK break !
Ikarus360 Posted March 9, 2018 Report Posted March 9, 2018 I won't lie, that drum segment got kinda tedious after a while, though the projections were cool. Now the arrival of the national flag. Also I noticed they slighty modified the main stage and raised it near the borders of the two adjacent tribunes to the cauldron.
JMarkSnow2012 Posted March 9, 2018 Report Posted March 9, 2018 Still with the national flag as we return from the UK break ...

I'd describe the opening sequences as "upbeat-traditional"- I wonder if they're trying to woo the home audience.
Ikarus360 Posted March 9, 2018 Report Posted March 9, 2018 They went for the official interpretation of the Anthem this time, though with a chorus of operatic singers.
Dylanlip Posted March 9, 2018 Report Posted March 9, 2018 NBCSN still showing the drummers. And the commentators can't shut up. I'm in for a long show.
zigzag Posted March 9, 2018 Report Posted March 9, 2018 Whoa hold on Greece first? Is this normal for the Paras?
Ikarus360 Posted March 9, 2018 Report Posted March 9, 2018 Remixes of traditional pansori songs for the Parade of Nations this time.
JMarkSnow2012 Posted March 9, 2018 Report Posted March 9, 2018 Even the country name placards are "upbeat-traditional" (tho' the parade music not so trad ...)
4seasonscentre Posted March 9, 2018 Report Posted March 9, 2018 Cbc is cheating. Not live. Delayed to squeeze in commercials but not skip stuff.
Ikarus360 Posted March 9, 2018 Report Posted March 9, 2018 Bandabi at the seat Led screns That curve in the placard looks almost like the Thames but I just realized it could be the Han river.
