“Gojira playing with decapitated bodies and raining blood in the background may be one of the coolest things ever at the opening Ceremonies.”

This is not your teen-years metal.

First greeted by a headless Marie Antoinette, Gojira performed at the Conciergerie along the River Seine.

Gojira - isn’t that the Japanese spelling of Godzilla?

Demonic, and symbolic of the “burning” that’s a comin for these cretins that glorify bloodshed, violence and evil. Hell awaits them all.

Note the cliche ridden guitarist's 'stance' in the middle. Got to pose I suppose.

Didn’t know that the Olympics are in Panem (Hunger Games).

Demonic rituals designed to usher in the age of the Antichrist, similar to rituals at CERN. Laviathan feeds the Beast and is hungry for human blood.

Well after all, nothing screams “Olympics!” like a beheaded woman in a castle window. Somebody email me when this is over.

Sigh... I hate edgy for edgy’s sake. Some marketing twit thinks its cool, and it plays to the squares.

I hate being cutting edge.

But... I’m not even watching the great sportsing event.

I’m watching a Jaws marathon. Started with Jaws 3, then Jaws 2 — and am now watching the sublime original movie.

I’m glad I’m in my mid 50s... that I remember the US when it was great... I have more years behind me than ahead of me, thank G-d.

I will do what I can, and I ache for my daughter and what she will face.

All these hip music acts are just so basic as the kids say.
I’m tired of it all.

The Olympics and it’s opening ceremony and even the most of events are absolutely superfluous.
Faster, higher, stronger won’t last as most athletic achievements are approaching asymptotic limits...U. Bolts record in 100 meter dash set in 2009. Flo Jo Griffiths record in 100 meters set in 1988. For sure these records might be broken...maybe by a few hundredth of a second every 20 or 30 years...
Maybe if we added, disrespectful, shocking, and bizarre to the Olympian goals....there might be a few years left in the dog. Ya’think anyone would care about synchronized swimming....except for the participants.. maybe they should add Rockettes kick dancing lines...maybe pole dancing...

Sounds like a sick act trying to outdo the previous sick act. Roman bread & circuses here we are.

Pardon me, but that “show” had all the markings of a performance, production, direction, allowing for a FEW intermittent displays of sanity, THE WORST TWO HOURS OF MY LIFE.

If that wasn’t put together by the occupants of an insane asylum, then it should be looked at and seriously consider deep Mental Health sessions needed.

SORRY, but that’s just me.It looked like something assembled in the early 60s when drugs were illegal.
