Winter Olympic Games 2018 Ceremonies

Have to say that I expected too much.. It was good ceremony, full of technology etc but not really 'wow'.

 

When I watched Incheon 2014 Asian Games (which was very ordinary), I thought they might be saving for this and expected too much

At least they only played Arirang twice (once played, once sung)

 

Oh wait, the TV ident will make you recognize the tune lol

Maybe this is all propaganda from the start. Of all the cities in Korea they choose Pyeongchang... Pyongyang.

 

Also let's not forget that military parade from yesterday. The real opening ceremony.

Maybe they should have let the North Korean mass games organisers do this ceremony, would have been even more spectacular!

I tell you, it was a good idea to put that scarf in your luggage before leaving

The ceremony was ok, but did not have such wow effect as some previous

 

and definitely North Korea stole the show

Oh no, he stole the attention from the same old 10 winter countries. Horror.

I like that the olympics are again broadcasted by Eurosport, but today during the opening ceremony, their commentator was horrible ...

"Akito Wakanabe", "Norioko Kasai", "Nathalia Geisendorfer" ...

At least they have a great staff with Michael Greis, Martin Schmitt, Sven Hannawald, Anni Friesinger or Fabian Hambüchen.

I was quite satisfied with this opening ceremony. Russians made it too long 4 years ago, this was quite nice.

It was good opening ceremony, not great as I expected, but still good
