[Anonymous]

2026 winter Olympics in Italy
2028 summer LosAngeles US
2030 winter French Alps, Nice
2032 summer Brisbane Australia
2034 winter Utah US

2036 summer:
Indonesia, Turkey, India, Chile, and Qatar have confirmed their bids. Other countries that have expressed interest in bidding for 2036 include Canada, Denmark, Germany, Italy, Hungary, Egypt, China, Saudi Arabia, and South Korea

So, France will organize another opening ceremony for the Winter games in 2030. What will they do next? 🤔

Was it 30 seconds out of a 3 hour broadcast?

It was longer than that. I watched both live and in the evening. The US live broadcast did pan away quickly, but then they actually removed it even more for the evening broadcast by having lots of commercials. They also removed a lot of other bits (minuet-type singing performer, shortened horse on the Seine race...) and the speeches which was not acceptable.

You’d think the organizers would have learned something from last year’s Bud Light fiasco. But some lessons have to be taught again. I am not watching the Olympics this year on TV. Let me know if there is an exciting clip or two that I can see on Twitter.

Don’t most people watch the Olympics because they love sports? Doesn’t sound like they were your thing, ceremony or not.

I’ll watch the next Olympics if they decide to make it about sports again instead of drag queens mocking Christianity and putting their junk on display.

Wait for Salt Lake in 10 years I guess. 👋

How will they go on without you? 😂

Talk about an over reaction. The show was 4 hours long and you can’t let go of a few minutes you did not like in the opening ceremony. So you plan to boycott the multi-week Olympics. Not an overreaction at all…

But wait, they were hoping to go viral with their moral outrage and maybe be retweeted by Vance or Trump.

I watch every Olympics start to finish. Honestly I couldn’t tell you what the last Olympics opening ceremony was about and I bet most normal people will have forgotten about this one in two years, too.

The fact that the next summer games will be in Los Angeles doesn’t exactly offer much hope for a family friendly event.

I loved this ceremony and I was thinking about how the LA ones should go. I think Spielberg introducing this one for NBC means he will be involved with LA.

Oh I bet you’re right! That would be awesome.

Particularly struck by the “Last supper in drag” bit. I guess Christianity is the only world religion you can openly mock at a sporting event that is supposed to promote solidarity and world peace.

Yes! And that clown TV duo would blame the TV network NBC for allowing such a radical left scene to make an appearance! The audacity of NBC, gasp!

Reminds me of the NFL players kneeling to protest the national anthem in 2016. Sure, only a couple of minutes out of the three hour show! Who cares? NFL viewership was down 8% that year and 9.7% the next.

Nah. I'd rather it was a rip. If true, I'll admit my reaction was a mistake. I don't want to be outraged about this guy's scrotum showing up on the broadcast.

The consternation by the American right wing who otherwise love to mutter “eff your feelings” and prattle on about how liberals get offended too easily is just priceless.

Until they signed a contract with T Kelce to have him start dating TS so they could get viewership and sales to go up again. Right??!
