Palette86 Posted August 24, 2021 Report Posted August 24, 2021 Current temperature is 29 degrees and the humidity is 70%. The weather in Tokyo is cloudy.I went to Tokyo in the daytime and it was quite uncomfortable.People in national stadium,please don't fall down to the ground !A month ago I was so disappointed with the opening ceremony of our game and now I would like to have little hope for OC of the Paralympics. I think @yoshifrom the UK in this forum is still expecting for something of Nintendo character to appear. Quote

Ceremony starts at 11pm and i don't think i can do another stay awake until 3am and up again at 6am...... If i thought it was going to be good would be worth it but due to the olympic opening being a pile of **** i think il just wait and see what the damage is tomorrow. You may watched the sneak preview of the Paralympics ceremony. Quote

I'm surprised they haven't had Johnnie Peacock on it, he always seems game for anything and would probably be a very good contestant. @Palette86 has this had more stability than the Olympic opening chaos?

WD96 Posted August 24, 2021 Author Report Posted August 24, 2021 I'm going to watch all four ceremonies once the Paralympics was over because I felt like these four are somehow connected. Quote
JMarkSnow2012 Posted August 24, 2021 Report Posted August 24, 2021 "Kimigayo" is the perfect length for a flag-raising! Quote
JMarkSnow2012 Posted August 24, 2021 Report Posted August 24, 2021 Oh dear. Channel 4 commentators attempting banter. Hush! Quote
JMarkSnow2012 Posted August 24, 2021 Report Posted August 24, 2021 Bit of a Barcelona 1992 vibe so far Quote

JMarkSnow2012 Posted August 24, 2021 Report Posted August 24, 2021 IIRC, Channel 4 didn't have commercial breaks during the 2016 Para OC. Evidently they've learned more financial sense by 2021. Quote
Scotguy II Posted August 24, 2021 Report Posted August 24, 2021 i am off to bed.... NZ TV have commercials and they are not picking up again where they left off so missing bits of it - disgusting. Enjoy Quote
PikyoK Posted August 24, 2021 Report Posted August 24, 2021 I feel as though this OC was more happier than the Olympic one. I'm convinced MIKIKO was part of the team because the video and the introduction was very much her. I liked that. Also there seems to be more people on the stage than the Olympic OC. 1 Quote

Wait...like I say I can't watch it atm but is this actually the MIKIKO proposal?! Was she moved to the Paralympic team after Dentsu forced her out of the Olympic one?Guess that confirms that the problem with the Olympics wasn't Covid but really was all about the reactionaries at Dentsu...good on TOCOG for keeping her on for this then Quote
JMarkSnow2012 Posted August 24, 2021 Report Posted August 24, 2021 Using two entrances in the parade speeds things up a bit. If there had been a stadium audience, that listing of all athletes on the ticker would have been a nice touch (and as I typed those words, the Channel 4 commentator said them ...) Quote
PikyoK Posted August 24, 2021 Report Posted August 24, 2021 If that's the case, damn you Dentsu. We could've had a greater Olympics OC. I hope the petition reaches its goal and there is an event at the stadium where MIKIKO's Olympic OC plans can come to life. Quote
JMarkSnow2012 Posted August 24, 2021 Report Posted August 24, 2021 "RPC" for Russia, and more Tchaikovsky for medal-winners Quote
