[Canova]

[BigJonsson]

Holy shit

Ashley MacIsaac

 

[yanhero]

[MrToughPants]

Fuck I knew McIsaac would make an appearance...

 

[Dr.Acula]

Australia's David Atkins knows how big that task can be.

Atkins was the producer for the Sydney 2000 Summer Games Opening and Closing Ceremonies and the 15th Asian Games Doha 2006 in Qatar. Presently, he is executive producer for the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games Ceremonies. Vancouver2010.com recently sat down with Atkins to discuss Olympic Games Opening Ceremonies.

Canadians are just as flabbergasted... sorry, world.

 

[Zombie James]

Oh, I love this song so much. I haven't heard this in year

 

[BladeWorker]

Ashley MacIsaac? I haven't heard anything from him in...about 10 years.

 

[TurtleSnatcher]

This is the worst opening ceremony ever.

 

[Duke Togo]

I...hahahahaha:lol

 

[Entropia]

A lot of you are coming off as terribly uncultured. :lol

 

[Mush]

Winter Olympics stealth advertising campaign for FF13 CONFIRMED.

 

[kingkitty]

They sure can tap for a long time.

 

[foomfoom415]

And the West Coast feed has begun. Not with the actual opening ceremony of course. I don't know how long they are going to put off showing the actual ceremony, but I'm not staying home all night for it. It's like NBC wants people to download torrents and skip out on their commercials.

 

[Lion Heart]

Chrono Cross motherfuckers

 

[cbox]

I bet the clapping and cheering is prerecorded too.

 

[Cmagus]

A lot of you are coming off as terribly uncultured. :lol

no this is the shit that happens out in some bum fuck nowhere town deep in canada the rest of us are normal

 

[ghostmind]

why o why can't u have hot chick doing the lap dancing

this guy is embarrassing us :lol

[DECK'ARD]

I'm going to do another line ...

 

[Canova]

Now the world gonna think that we're just bunch of weirdos

 

[Brinbe]

[Archaix]

Was that supposed to be a joke at Quebec's expense? Is it going to get reasonable again after this break?

 

[jamesinclair]

Wait a second.......Im on the west coast....and its not on TV....

Am I seriously going to watch a tape delay of a west coast broadcast?

So a quick google search just revealed that EVERY GODAMN EVENT WILL BE TAPE DELAYED ON THE WEST COAST!?!

WTF. The damn events are a 2 hour flight away and there will be a 3 hour tape delay for EVERYTHING???


FUCK NBC.

 

[Canova]

fixed

my bad

 

[GodfatherX]

did Uwe Boll produce this...and is there a similar legal loophole that allows flops to earn more money from the Olympics?

 

[zedge]

A lot of you are coming off as terribly uncultured. :lol

NO shit.. maybe they should of had Brittany Spears and some US Marines shooting guns and blowing stuff up..

 

[Firestorm]

Stream it. I'm sure NBC's site has it.

How am I uncultured for thinking this is boring as hell and not representative of Canada?

 

[yodathesoda]

Bill Simmons twitter: I can't believe Shareef Abdur-Rahim isn't going to light the Olympic torch. This is an outrage.
:lol

 

[SuperSonic1305]

NO shit.. maybe they should of had Brittany Spears and some US Marines shooting guns and blowing stuff up..

Needs more Juggalos

 

[Divvy]

CTV's stream is pretty good.

 

[DECK'ARD]

This is either the worst thing I've ever seen, or the greatest.

I'm so confused.

 

[whitehawk]

As a Canadian, I don't like this opening ceremony.

 

[OpinionatedCyborg]

On the bright side, this is really visually appealing.

On the downside... what the fuck??
- horrible songs
- crazy ass shit but not in a good way (except for isolated moments of greatnets)
- way too much shitty dancing (we're too uncultured for this shit... more action)
- needs more fireworks, fights, air battles, etc.

in comparison to opening ceromies before beijing, it's not too bad so far. It's actually a prettier version of the normal shit we get.

 

[DrFunk]

NO shit.. maybe they should of had Brittany Spears and some US Marines shooting guns and blowing stuff up..

lol, it's not just us man, your fellow canadians hate it too

 

[Canova]

aren't you guys in the same time zone as Vancouver? :lol

 

[ConfusingJazz]

A lot of you are coming off as terribly uncultured. :lol

Because we don't like some guy trying to make Riverdance "hip and cool" with a hair cut, those fake tattoo sleeves, and flares on their shoes?

 

[Dega]

I want to turn this off but I also don't want to because some part of me still thinks this will get better at some point. Another part is wondering why I keep trusting that this will get better though.

 

[giga]

NO shit.. maybe they should of had Brittany Spears and some US Marines shooting guns and blowing stuff up..

u mad?

USA USA USA

 

[Brinbe]

I wonder what Ontario gets...

 

[SpectreFire]

Oh thank god!

Donald Sutherland and the floor's back!

 

[Canova]

Frodo!

 

[Shard]

Oh, it is the Imagine Entertainment vanity plate come to life.

 

[Lion Heart]

You guys are assholes, this ground shit is amazing.

 

[DECK'ARD]

 

[Iron_Scimitar]

That's a pretty savage moon.

 

[El Sloth]

A lot of you are coming off as terribly uncultured. :lol

And you're coming off as a bit snobbish dude. It's fine if you enjoyed it, just know that some us didn't.

 

[BigJonsson]

I wonder what Ontario gets...

This......




And wtf @ NBC tape delaying on the west coast :lol
