Opening Ceremony- NBC Broadcast

[Theatregirl1122]

I figured it might be nice to have a thread for those of us watching the NBC broadcast to chat and snark without spoilers. (If that's okay with the admins, of course)

I'll start the snark: I'd have enjoyed that Shakespeare a heck of a lot more with Kenneth Branagh chewing scenery.

I'm glad for t his thread. My roommate doesn't get snark and likes perky things. I need a refuge.

Did you see Bradley Wiggins' sideburns? You must be on the look out for during Road Cycling. They are terrifying.

I just posted elsewhere it was time for my biennial bitching about NBC's coverage. Let The Grousing Begin.

At least Evlyn Glennie can't hear the NBC announcers. [/sick joke]

Forging the One Ring!

[oleada]

One ring to rule them all!

My mother, with the master's degree in costume design, is raving about the quality of the costumes.

Also that... is effing awesome.
