The contrast between Paris and the other games is striking. Fencing at the Grand Palais, beach volleyball under the Eiffel Tower, archery at Les Invalides, horse riding at Versailles, never has a city been such a perfect stage for sport. The French atmosphere was there. The stadiums were packed. We Danced, we vibrated. The crowds broke into spontaneous renditions of La Marseillaise on any pretext, including during the night time ascent of the Olympic cauldron into the sky. France arrived at the Games shaken by two unexpected rounds of parliamentary elections that ended in a political stalemate. Surprisingly, the Games were a complete success, in a divided France that managed to unite for the duration of the Games. « La France ne peut être la France sans la grandeur. »

Les franciliens vivent habituellement dans une zone tempéré, les épisodes de canicule sont plus rare et concentrés à la même période. La climatisation n’est donc pas dans nos habitudes.

Many parts were very emotional, like the statues of French women who made their mark on history. And for those saying there were no French performers, you're wrong, the majority of the performers were French.

Exactly there were 20-30 woke minutes that the French themselves condemn, out of 240 minutes and they are going to do a complete bashing because they hate France, this bad buzz was orchestrated by the English and the Russians mainly because they organized London 2012 and that everything that can follow is null in their eyes and the Russians not having been invited because of the geopolitical situation, they managed so that the small dysfunctions take a considerable place.

[@Airlink_SG]

I want to clarify that I who loved England before, having been to London 3 times. It's over, I don't want to hear about them for the rest of my life. They spend their time in the football world already making fun of us, talking about farmers league and now with the Olympics they have shown their aversion to our people again with continuous bashing, even a few days after the end of the Olympics on social networks. In France we never speak badly of them, they have a real superiority complex, it's frightening.

[@riceball2wakame935]

Opening ceremonies on sunny days are commonplace and boring. This time, the theme was earth colors, with water, fire, wind, earth, green plants, metal, and grandeur, and the delicate and careful design and setup, dance and performance evoked the feeling of nature. We can surmise that the themes were earth, nature and people, space + modern times. So it seems to have been designed and engineered to work well both on sunny and cloudy days. In fact, this time, rain created a better atmosphere than sunny weather, and many people felt nostalgic.

[@riceball2wakame935]

In an interview, he said that the athletes felt lonely because the last Tokyo Games were held without spectators, the spotlight was on the torch relay and the opening ceremony, and the Olympics were used and abused to promote a cult. Because Japan treated its athletes so badly, it can be assumed that France took inspiration from that and dimmed the lights at the opening and closing ceremonies to put the spotlight on the athletes. In fact, all the events were held on a grand scale under clear skies and in bright venues, and the athletes were smiling and overjoyed.

As luck would have it, they deliberately complained about the food, about everything. The English who are going to give us lessons on food, seriously ??? It has been proven that the success of self-service was such that there was a shortage and the English said anything behind "the athletes are dying of hunger". Go and find pictures of the Olympic village and dare to say that they were in poor conditions. And for the beds, find out about the conditions in Tokyo or Rio. In short, with these Olympic Games, even if there were record sales, atmosphere, audience, magnificent sites, we understood, the English always found things to complain about, having organized London 2012. But you must not forget the British who say "France should never have been hosts" that the revival of the Olympic Games is thanks to France in the 19th century, without Baron Pierre de Coubertin and his team, they would not have seen the light of day again in 1896 in Greece then in 1900 in Paris.

And the Olympic village, everything was not perfect. On these 3 aspects there are things to say, we are the first to admit it in France. Now on an 18-day event, painting a black picture despite 90% of positive things, it is just abuse. It's never been perfect anywhere. We could see it on the networks, all the fake news always came from the English or Australian media or athletes. (London 2012, Brisbane 2032) We understood after a while. Nothing about the visitors delighted in 99.9% of cases, the perfect transport, the perfect organization, the incredibly beautiful sites (never seen before, go compare with London or Rio, we'll laugh), the decibel record in all the arenas, the show offered before and during the competitions like at the swimming pool or for athletics, the 100m, go see on the networks. No on the English side, we only talked about negative things, even the Belgian athlete denied having fallen ill but in England we continued to maintain this information.

[@jorgerinconr.7357]

Esta ceremonia es un HITO, es un paradigma, cambiará muchas cosas para el futuro. Muchos tal vez no lo entienden por que aún no han abierto su mente en muchas formas. Para poder asimilar lo que viste aquí necesitas mucho conocimiento de cultura genera y popular. Me explico: para empezar se nota a leguas qué es la creación de un artista al cual le dieron libertad creativa, y esto es muy difícil incluso en democracias, imagínense en países dictatoriales es imposible, desde ahí Francia dando cátedra. Segundo, el romper protocolo y hacer la ceremonia en la calle a este nivel tan colosal es también cátedra de democracia y pluralidad, es de todos no solo de unos pocos. La idea de democratizar la ceremonia es otra cátedra de igualdad y fraternidad. Tercero debes entender de música instrumental, clásica, Disco, Dance, electro, balada, Tecno, de arte, de pintura, de animación, de cine, de literatura, de arquitectura, de escultura, de rock, de opera, de Drag, de eurodisco, de historia, de deporte, de olimpismo, de las exposiciones universales de Paisajismo de la actualidad de Francia. Todo esto para entender muchas referencias. Por que si, la belleza está en los detalles. Si no, terminaras creyendo lo que la gente que no entiende dice. Es probablemente la mejor ceremonia jamás realizada. Por que la belleza debe tener significado, no solo ser bonito y ya. Algo que al mundo ya se le olvidó.

Please, could you upload the "clean" ceremony WITHOUT the comments of the reporters? All too often their comments are so annoying, notably when they drown out the background score and completely ruin the mood! It's like going to see a movie and having to endure someone sitting next to you who keeps explaining everything on the screen! That just gets on my nerves, to say the least.

I found that these reporters spoke less during this video than the French reporters lol. The French reporters sometimes talked even during the shows.

[@Airlink_SG]

​​​@@verdiernoyama9681je suis pas du tout d'accord avec toi, exemple pendant le passage du bateau français, pendant 3 mins non stop les anglais ont fait que parler sans interruption, même pas 3 secondes ! Mdr En France ils ont du parler 20 secondes a tout casser durant ces 3 minutes, un manque de respect des anglais de OBS pour le coup. Ils ont gâché la musique culte de M83 "Midnight City". Et il y a plein d'autres passages où les anglais parlent pour rien dire. Je pensais qu'on pouvait pas faire pire que Daphné Burki, eh ben si !!!

It was undeniably the most beautiful Olympic Opening Ceremony of all time, and perhaps one of the greatest artistic events ever staged. Four hours of breathtaking performance, 500,000 spectators present, and billions of viewers worldwide. Thank you to the IOC for sharing this extraordinary event in its entirety. It is crucial to defend freedom of expression and artistic freedom in the face of sectarian movements, and even more so against religious obscurantism that sees evil everywhere. This sublime show was a moment of unity and a celebration of diversity, bringing together people from all backgrounds, including the marginalized, people with disabilities, non-normative bodies, homosexuals, and transgender individuals. Thank you, France, for making such inclusive events possible in a world increasingly dominated by populism, nationalism, racism, and dangerous religious sectarianism. These groups preach love but seem utterly devoid of it.
