| Turkish said: Worst opening ceremony I've watched and seeing all the other troubles surrounding this olympics, Brazil should be ashamed for organizing this show. Very cheap and yet still so poorly planned. No wonder it has the lowest tv ratings in decades. I've also seen a video compilation of thiefs robbing people in broad daylight in Rio, place is unreal. This was the moment for Brazil to show itself as an upcoming nation like China in 2008. |
This is a big critic of mine too. The opening ceremony was just "Brazil party country". But i think it has more to do with the city. Rio de Janeiro is known internally for not taking itself seriously and it's people to be too Poliana (a character in a popular novel that makes the happy game all the time, trying to see the best ouy of the worst and even veing ridiculous at times). Have the games been in other more business oriented city like Sao Paulo or to a more political and imponent city like Brasilia it would be a very different story.
