Sonnenschein Posted April 9, 2011 Report Posted April 9, 2011 In the Austrian version of this show, a same sex couple dances a paso doble to the music of John Williams. Worth to watch! Quote
Nassik Posted April 9, 2011 Report Posted April 9, 2011 Admittedly, I'm not sure how to react to this performance. It's definitely a first. As a pair, the dancing is quite fluid and good. The lightsaber toys were a bit much, though. Quote
Sonnenschein Posted April 9, 2011 Author Report Posted April 9, 2011 Yes, there was a huge turmoil in the media before this season started. But, I don't find the performence offending or "gay". Yes, the sabers were toys, someone has to talk to the prop guys Quote
Nassik Posted April 9, 2011 Report Posted April 9, 2011 The fact that both dancers are male doesn't bother me. It surprised me as I wasn't expecting it but a dance is a dance. The lightsabers were the element that weakened the presentation in my eyes. As a Star Wars fan I cringed when I saw the lightsabers and I was dumbfounded. Using toys in the performance seemed to cheapen the overall effect. Quote
carbonitekid Posted April 10, 2011 Report Posted April 10, 2011 I have to admit, I detest all these "on ice " , "dancing", "x factor", "got talent" type programs. However: Good on them for pushing the boundries. Those lightsabres were a bit on the cr@p side tho'! Quote
