    who does, then?

    the difference with Russia is that at this point, Russia has no good music left.

    Canada does.

    canada can't let an olympic ceremony end as well as it started, I guess

    I mean, fiddling batman in the moon devolved into crazy opera lady sings words unintelligible in any language and then the torch doesn't work

    and then at the closing ceremonies...nickelback

    So if you take the good from the Opening Ceremony and the good from the Closing Ceremony, we had one pretty solid Ceremony.
    That's... actually pretty Canadian.

    Honestly, that would have been better than every musical act they had (save for Neil Young and Michael Buble).

    It was fantastic.

    You have two Chinese men dressed to the fucking nines. Wearing immaculate suits look pristine.

    And then you have the Mayor of London. Shows up with him jacket undone and his stomach trying to jump out of his shirt.

    Fantastic.
