I know they were on a budget for this, but some of the opening ceremony was fucking weak. Chevy truck (with a burnt headlight) in the rain for the torch? No thanks. The log that never came up was jokes. And they could have decorated the outside of BC Place considering all the aerial shots.
The Native aspects were massively gay. We all know no one gives a fuck about that stuff.
Where was Cirque Du Soleil? Where was Rush? Where was the giant game of shinny (hockey)?
They kind of relied too heavily on projections. The whales were dope but a lot of that stuff could/should have been omitted. Like the dancing in the trees and fields, gay.
The singing was absolutely disgraceful. Just horrible. I was at a pub so I could barely hear the national anthem but the way they butchered it was disgusting. The opera singer was stupid. Bryan Adams and Nelly Furtado weren't singing and their song was way too cliche. KD Lang and Sara Mclaughlin were good though.
The music seemed alright. I liked the fiddlers (better than all the gay dancing shit) but that poet seemed hella lame.
All in all it was not bad. Some stuff was great and but some was just terribad. Canada had hands down the best uniforms walking in. I also noticed those two Norwegian girls, so hawwwt.
