I can't wait to see it just for Gojira

Yeah...that Gojira set was amazing. Especially the massive spray of blood at the end of their song

Massive spray of blood at the Olympics and in post 2015 Paris is always a welcome sight.

HA! It was just a huge amount of large red streamers. Not real blood, but if the band was Slayer, I'm sure they would have insisted on real blood being used.

I'm not going to say too much about it since I figure some folks are waiting for the prime time replay, but mon Dieu, that was a *fantastic* Opening Ceremony.
