It got weird again.


Not finding this bit weird at all, some nice choreography and it's obviously leading to something.

what does this bit stand for. honestly its the only part I haven't understood.

Theres been some cringeworthy moments but all in all the last 30mins have been good, some good music and a party atmosphere. People being slightly harsh in here tbh.

People just seem to want the same epic ceremony opening like every other countries. UK does something a bit different and creative, I commend them for wanting to do something different. And apart from some weird parts this ceremony is actually pretty cool.


Yeah this was not bad, beginning was just a little bit boring but i've enjoyed otherwise.


I guess they knew they can't beat China in terms of epicness and decided to make something different.

Perfect commentators on cro national tv... They explain everyting, nothing is misunderstood and they keep quiet when it's appropriate
Always remember that you are unique... Just like everyone else.

Indeed. It's also hard to believe our small country was responsible for ruling a quarter of the worlds landmass and 1/5 the worlds population at one point.

Industrializing early due to geographical location has its benefits.

by geographical location you mean having more scientists by breaking away from the strangle grip of the catholic church and placing value in intellectualism?

yes, we did that
