I love the more subtle (well, relatively speaking) ones... the oversized implants and skimpy costumes are getting totally overdone at this point. I realize it's part of the whole shebang (and always has been to a large extent), but there's so much more, I don't know, "character" in the big, ridiculous costumes than the totally revealing ones.

Rio's carnaval is boring as shit. Olinda is where it's at.

My friends from Brazil always told me it was best in Salvador. I'm going later this year to visit some friends in Sao Paolo and Salvador, and again next year for the World Cup too.

It's all from Rio carnaval... why are you sayin "brazil carnaval"... this makes no sense.
btw Salvador da Bahia carival >>>>>> Rio carnival.

Your friends are right.

Not really a big fan of Carnaval. The floats are pretty but my city actually does an event called zombiewalk for all of the people who don't enjoy carnaval hahahaha.

Again: carnival in Salvador and Olinda (pretty much anywhere on the northeast, or in smaller older cities ) is superior to the Rio madness.

You missed Freddy Mercury in feathers, I think he would have approved :P

Was my first sambodromo but second carnaval, I really loved it. I understand that after years locals get tired, but some attitudes I've seen from some people here are borderline snobbish. My favorite part was the old ladies next to us, dancing all night, not resting one second, I was dead after the fourth escola (being sick didn't help much).

Colombian women aren't that different, specially in Medellin.
 
How many birds had to die for these costumes? Besides that i can live with that tradition.

And this is Karneval in Köln - Germany:

I love Carnival! Unfortunately I don't party as hard as I used to since I have a fiancee now, work, etc. But I had some of the best days of my life during the Carnival weekends.

Seriously, for brazilians the new year don't starts until the Carnival ends!

Define superior

According to the Guinness Book of Records, the carnival or Carnaval of Salvador da Bahia is the biggest party on the planet. For an entire week, almost 4 million people celebrate throughout 25 kilometers (16 mi) of streets, avenues and squares. The direct organization of the party involves the participation of 100 thousand people.[40] Its dimensions are gigantic. Salvador receives an average of 800 thousand visitors.

Party is in the street and you participate, it's not just looking at people passing by. Also, girls will frenchkiss you for necklasses.
