Olympics Paris

Somehow, I never realised how big his nose was until now.

That’s the US version of Bond at London.

Not a bad touch at all.

(The leg thing was just his speed control. Moved the usual abseil rope kit from his waist).

I can’t abide by the RHCP.

Dawg!

Snoop doing an Olympic version of Dave Grohl at last years Glastonbury.

Banger to end it.

I think the sound has been out all night. It kicked in a few times, but has been the wrong side of loud for the entire thing.

Edit: I think banger was prophetic.

The opening ceremony for LA is going to be mental.

The Yanks do a lot of Rong shit, but they do know how to do showbiz, and LA is showbiz ground zero.

Wondering what the French organizers felt as their downer truck rolled to a halt by a mid 50’s Murcan dropping from the sky then displaying a bunch of other entertaining stateside shit before Snoop got to the point and smoked the Olympic flag (Not shown ).

The sporty bit in the middle was terrific, the opening and closing ceremonies were abysmal. Roll on the Paralympics, always a superb spectacle of endeavour.

I didn’t bother watching the closing ceremony.
Luckily I can ignore it again on iPlayer

Needed some Jean-Michel Jarre laser harp theatre :+1:

The sport was brilliant but agree opening and closing ceremonies were shit…

Apart from the laser show at the Eiffel tower. https://www.billboard.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/the-Eiffel-Tower-light-show-2024-paris-opening-ceremony-olympics-billboard-1548.jpg?w=1280
