Bizarre opening ceremony. Felt like a French fever dream
😂
This is especially confusing if you're not french.
@@PoliguyI'm one of those 😅
That's probably the point.
Thank you very much!. It's not inclusive... I'm confused don't know whats happening.
An opening ceremony with no flashy rated musicians and iphones from fans. Everyone in the stadium took part. Lovely
Pourtant en France elle est critiqué pars la gauche et l extrême gauche , insulté même... ils disent même que a cause de cette cérémonie ils ont honte d être francais !
Merci pour ces belles paroles
@@turiduTu sais en 2013, je suis allée aux feux du 14 juillet à Paris. C’était magique pour moi et tout le monde critiquait. Même les clochards entre eux … Ils auraient fait une cérémonie plus élaborée, ils auraient dit que trop d’argent a été dépensé et que ça aurait pu aller ailleurs etc.
Fantastic! What a brilliant opening ceremony, the crowd playing their part wonderfully too
This ceremony was so French... so very very French, possibly top of the list of the most French things ever
Love that. Agree
I think this was pretty much the point of it mate 😀
Perhaps the most French part was when our (not) beloved president made his speech and everyone in the stadium was booing him 😂
@@sixtealbisetti2480we, in Europe , like your president. France economy is doing pretty well while Germany, Italy, UK…etc are massively struggling. You guys should be happy sometimes and stop blaming your leaders and hit the street always. Have a great World Cup buddy
@@alle8565 TIL France's economy is doing well
awsome France and a prelude for 2024 Olympics ....greetings from Sydney Australia , we are watching you France
Cheers to world rugby which made the ceremony available for everyone... It's almost impossible to find for other sporting events
Jean Dujardin take a bow. How many oscar winners do you see doing that??? Magnificent. Such a beautiful, culturally rooted opening ceremony.
Jean Dujardin being Jean Dujardin enjoying himself and doing what he wants. That’s also how he ended up with an Oscar.
I love it. So simple .. no stupid flashing lights and American type of crude glitz. Lovely
I agree - loved it.. uncompromising in a way. Vive La France !
shutup casual france suck and choked soccer, lost basketball and will lose rugby
Exactly. Was tired from seeing the flashy lights and rap music in Fifa World Cup openers each time. Jean Dujardin, take a bow. How many OSCAR winners would dare to do that.
Flashing lights is cool
Pourtant en France elle est critiqué pars la gauche et l extrême gauche , insulté même... ils disent même que a cause de cette cérémonie ils ont honte d être francais !
Merci pour ces belles paroles
That awkward moment when the president of the host country gets booed at soon as he comes out
It’s a good moment. People are waking up
@@timbaker4253yeah lol the children who have no idea of how the welfare system works are waking up
The french president is a c..t .For all foreigners who don't understand
Макрон покраснел и пытался перекричать толпу. Глас народа не заткнуть. Молодцы, французы, показали Макрону кто он на самом деле!
Lol welcome to France
This is the "HAKA" of the ceremony ,it defines the culture and resonates with the history of 🇫🇷.Exemplary
Tellement triste de voir la France mourir depuis la Belgique, les commentaires contre cette cérémonie sont vraiment hallucinants, c'était une cérémonie réussie, qui me rappelle les vacances dans le sud, les apéros, les amis, la simplicité... Ne perdez pas ça, c'est ce qu'il ya de mieux. Ce n'est pas le périph Parisien qui fait rêver...
Totalement d'accord avec toi cousin. Notre monde moderne nous fait oublier que la simplicité d'âme et d'esprit est une belle qualité.
Oh please. People are praising the opening far and wide. You got two negative comments. Sit down. Tell your fans to be more gracious when other teams win.
Always funny when a rugby commentary explains theatre
Rugby IS theatre!
Most likely because the two couldn't be so far from each other. Worst ever opening in world cup history
it’s a bit out of line, I’ll give you that Watkins… welcome to France 😜
@@thomasshirrefs5331 Even the French didn't like it !🤣
@@watkinsrory I'm afraid you're completely wrong. The leftist journals hated it because they hate everything too French. The people liked it. Obviously you only read leftist journals.
I wish you all a good rugby world cup in France ! Liberty, Eguality and Fraternity ! Allez les Bleus!!!
Refreshing change to the usual pompous, ostentatious, glitzy sports ceremonial openings you see all of the time. Back to basics is great to see.
This was all the way back to high school theatre.
that was before...unfortunately it's just a dream anymore, because it's getting worse and worse...
Purely France 🇫🇷 ♥️ ❤️ 🙌
Including the booing of the president 😂
@@thomasshirrefs5331 couldn't be better 😅🤣
This is why the British don’t have politicians as heads of state. It’s better to have a King as head of the family.
This is definitely one of the opening ceremonies of all time
I'd go further than that, of all opening ceremonies at all world sporting events; it's THE most recent.
Let's not forget how utterly celebratory this celebration is. Mindblowing job by the French
I love that the French have a great sense of humour about their national stereotypes. I suppose our British equivalent would be a bunch of toffs eating bland food, while it rained heavily outside the pub
I think you need to back track to the opening of the 2012 Olympics. It was all out their:- history and a taste of irony, along with QE 2 having a laugh along with us all.
Certainly this was typically French, but I’m not really into it myself. Just give me the rugby.
hahahaha you forgot your jelly desserts 😉🤪
Getting soused and adjourning to the local Indian eatery for some Vindaloo.
Vous n'avez rien compris,cette france là n'existe plus.le mode de vie a la française n'existe plus.
Maintenant la population a changer,la france est devenu une terre d'islam.
Wheres the Rugby Union Song always to begin of the games
I am in tears,tears of admiration,love and respect. Allez les France🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤😊
Pourtant en France elle est critiqué pars la gauche et l extrême gauche , insulté même... ils disent même que a cause de cette cérémonie ils ont honte d être francais !
Merci pour ces belles paroles
Stunning frenchy opening, i absolutely loved it !!!
The true France before it became what it is now.
Thanks for the upload of the opening ceremony
The France I love ❤️
Really enjoyed this! Much love from South Africa
La France qu’on aime…paradoxalement il est rafraîchissant de se plonger dans la passé 😊
Wow! Absolutely stunning 👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻❤️
I thought it was excellent. And why shouldn’t it be a celebration of France.
This is what these opening ceremonies should be about. A postcard to the world.
🇨🇦👏 WOW 🎉 Very Impressive 🌟 Spectacular Opening Ceremony 🇫🇷 Thank You For Posting 💫
I must say, this is the type of lovable cringe that does the whole journey an becomes enjoyable 😂❤ I honestly quite liked it
Allez les bleus, de l'Italie 🇫🇷 🇮🇹
Thanks and "que le meilleur gagne". Kudos to you for yesterday's wonderful 52-8 in St. Etienne❤
Magnifique vive la France 🇫🇷
Lovely France. What a delightful way for an opening. What a great score, beating New Zealand.
What an opener! I actually got a little emotional
Well Done FRANCE...
フランスの素敵がたくさん詰まった開会セレモニー🇫🇷♡
Nihon gambate !!! ❤❤
Arigato❤
There's no love lost between the French and President Macron. Macron was booed and hissed by the audience at the start of his speech.
There's no democracy in France, that's why. People are tricked into voting against someone rather than for someone. Then they have no choice but to spend 5 years hating the president they have been left with.
Viva la France 🇫🇷 ♥️
The opening ceremony was a bit underwhelming tbh.
I've never seen a crowd more engaged in an opening ceremony ever. Think they did pretty well
@@Nicklogann ..It was the Rugby anthem which ignited that passion.
Very artistic… quite a few people have been quite moved it seems 🤷♂️ and no not just the rugby anthem, almost all French people love that actor, that Piaf song and the singer too
Yes how cool 😎 did not see this part from New Zealand we got beaten by france so this just goes down real well very well done
the best rugbyb world cup ao far !!
Macron not the most popular dude in the republic.
Dude? Tyrant more like.
Least popular leader in Europe apparently… around 25/30% approval ratings
@@thomasshirrefs5331but efficient. French economy is doing good in this turbulent global time
No! but at the moment certainly more efficient in economy than many other European leaders I won't name!
@@alle8565what about no? French ministry of economy is very good at playing with the numbers, especially with the unemployment number.
amazing work, bravo!
viva les bleus!
Thank you, very original presentation, well done
best part was the muppet president being booed for the whole world to see
This makes me want to go to France
You will be shock so France is like Africa …
France is not the same as the 80's and 90's, there is so much that has changed, so much descrimination mainly because of all the different nationalities, there's so much more negative things there but I won't mention, you maybe a little disappointed at some aspects of France, if your there for only a few days France is ok, if your there for longer all the negatives will make its way to you, you don't have to go nd find em
As a french since 30 years now, for your security, avoid Paris and big cities at any cost. Not joking here.
Just find a dinghy that goes back
This mythical "Ovalie" village is supposed to represent the South-West rugby heartland of France not the whole of it so yes it is actually not that caricatural. But aim for the South-West not Paris, Lyon, Marseille etc... Think, Auch, Pau, Condom-en-Armagnac, Montauban, Albi, Bagnère-de-Bigorre, Mazamet, Lannemezan, Saint-Gaudens, Lupiac etc... Gascony, Béarn, Dordogne etc etc maybe up to Bayonne, Biarritz, Bordeaux and La Rochelle to extend to the Atlantic and Basque parts.
Memorable ❤
Original et créatif n'en déplaise aux critiques
Hermoso , conmemorando las tradiciones tan sencillo pero a la vez claro mostrándonos el sentimiento francés ❤
Pourtant en France elle est critiqué pars la gauche et l extrême gauche , insulté même... ils disent même que a cause de cette cérémonie ils ont honte d être francais !
Merci pour ces belles paroles
Bravo la France !
Me encanta ver mi Bandera en esta World Cup !! Arriba Uruguay 🇺🇾 🇺🇾 🇺🇾
Vamo' arriba bo! Uruguay no maa'!
Saludos de un hermano del otro lado de la frontera en Rio Grande del Sur!
@@eduardoschiavon5652 Vamoo arriba !! Saludos desde Montrvideo !
Beautiful Opening Ceremony. No flashy lights, drones or people flashing their phones.
Grandiose 🎉 Vive l'art, la danse, la culture qui sublime la France que l'on aime ❤
I absolutely loved it. Celebrating sport & art ! Bravo 🙌
Magnifique! A nice and simple ceremony celebrating French culture and sport
Desmond frost from auckland new Zealand I loved it beautiful singing colourful outstanding superb delightful
Bruh that’s it I’m moving to France full stop😂love the culture!
love from Sydney,Australia ✌🏽🫶🏽
Simple, refreshing but brilliant in that way....
The World Cup is coming back from France to South Africa BOKKE bring it back♥️♥️
😂
@@AngloKiwiI'd keep a lower profile if I were you after the embarrassment that was the AB yesterday.
@@marantz1SA arnt the AB.
@@marantz1 No worries, I support both England and New Zealand. I see your comment history.. You love to have a whinge don’t you.
Good luck 😜 que les meilleurs gagnent!
Spectacular ❤
Wow that took my breath away! Brings back memories from 2007 I just love this sport!🫶🏽🫶🏽🔥🔥🔥🎉🎉
I liked the concept a lot but you can tell their was more heart than budget... No worries we are here for the rugby anyway. The Peña Baiona was a great touch and if they had distributed lyrics to all seats it may have made it the most participative opening ceremony in RWC history since most fans were participating to the chorus already...
They missed an opportunity not doing a 100-people long paquito across the stadium with people representing all the participating countries being flipped about across it but maybe for the closing ceremony? ;)
Beautiful 😢❤❤❤❤❤...
The booing was très émouvant 👌🏾
Fantastic. Ca c'est la France 🇫🇷
This looks like an episode of Allo, Allo!?
Rafraîchissante cette cérémonie 🇫🇷🙏🏼
Une belle France d’époque comme on l’aime .. et qui n’est plus malheureusement ..
Mostly underwhelming but there were strong moments like when La Peña Baiona Rugby Heartland region's Anthem kicked in @17:00 and ignited the public's passion. Goosebumps.
Congratulations ❤ very nice start
What a gorgeous opening!
Next year Olympic opening ceremony must be cool like this ceremony 👍
Un mot , magnifiquement France.
El mundial.nos junto otra vez...a disfrutarlo gente..!
well done France, nothing weird and all fun. Great show
I loved this. Why did Sky sport New Zealand only show half of this?!!!
Cause its too French we can't celebrate a countrys culture anymore
The jeers on the president was so loud...
Wow France - you sure know how to do an opening ceremony - this was absolutely delightful ! ❤
Why wasn't there a rendition of the traditional RWC song "World in Union" at the opening ceremony?
There was Peña Baiona instead for a change.
What union? 🙄
I don't know how I feel about "World in Union" seemingly being glossed over. World Cup tradition relegated to 5 seconds of being drowned out by horns
Superb.
Génial 🎉🎉🎉
Fantastic review of all French classical features!
From a French in Malaysia. I’ve been more interested by the match France vs New Zealand, but, what an opening!!!
Not to mention the match just afterwards was a great one…
Happy to be French…
Aguante cono sur de Latinoamérica 🇨🇱🇺🇾🇦🇷
❤❤❤❤Love to watch this Game❤❤❤❤
La vraie France , magnifique et merveilleux, quand on était encore bien, MERCI
The roaster caught me off gaurd 😂
fantastic !!
Truly fascinating. One of the best Opening Ceremonies of the history of the Rugby World Cup. 👍🎉🎆🎇❤️
Not my favourite opening but well done France. Different and calm.
Miss you ❤
Superb
A truly magnificent opening ceremony! Bien fait!!
Fantastic ! Thank You UTube
The opening did feel very French but to be honest the national anthems was the worst part, not sure what happened there but it sounded very confusing.
Sounded like the crowd and the choir were singing completely different parts
Viva la France!
Magnifique !
Vive la France ! La France qu'on aime !!!!
What a show ❤️🫶🏻
As a French person, I seriously can't understand why some people in France hated and criticized this opening. It is a perfect representation of French traditional culture and illustrates the rugby game in a fun and comical way...In a French way ! Wonderful !
Je t’avoue qu’au début j’ai pensé « on est encore en 1945? « avant de comprendre l’humour et d’apprécier le staging et la simplicité.
I guess, a lot of them missed the irony and the nostalgia.
They are probably not even rugby fans
Superbe !
One of the better World Cup openers
c est la France que j aime
That's the best low budget opening show ever!!!!!!!!!
