Bonus: I really really like what would have been icelands entry for this years competition which was sadly cancelled. Tinfoil hat me thinks that covid is actually a grand conspiracy by the governor of the central bank of iceland to prevent these guys from winning so not to bankrupt the country when they ended up having to host next year.
I actually think they did do a great job of capturing the spirit of Eurovision, which always embraces misift and oddball acts. It really doesn't take itself too seriously.

The problem for me was the run-time of Fire Saga and the extremely drawn out love plot. They could have easily cut the movie down to 90 minutes and made it a whole lot better.
