Closing Ceremonies in France was slow and boring, almost fell asleep (we taped it, so we can go thru it). The science fiction guy was just strange, when you can showcase your countries and the greatness of it, you put out a weird character with weird other people, and make it so slow you just hope it would get better, but it does not.
Tom Cruise jumping and doing the stunt, with the bike and bringing the Olympics to my hometown (in four years) was pretty cool, and yes, entertaining. The Los Angeles singers and bands were cool too, but alas, they filmed it in LONG BEACH, not Los Angeles, which I thought was very ironic, given it is the games in Los Angeles. Lots of beaches in Los Angeles to film, but chose Long Beach. At least it is in Los Angeles County (not the city).
