Well it’s finally happened – a hotel in the planning stages that bears an uncanny resemblance to the Death Star from the Star Wars films. You’re probably expecting that this hotel will be built in Las Vegas or Dubai, but instead it is planned for Baku, capital of the Republic of Azerbaijan. This may attempt to increase Baku’s chances of hosting the 2016 Olympic Games.

…but will it take off?
The Rebel Alliance will destroy it! What a waste.
The lulzworthy thing is that there are so many Rebel groups in that part of the world.
Any, I doubt they’ll ever hold the Olympics that close to Georgia. And Chechnya. And Iran. Plus it’s a stone’s throw from Iraq. Olympics there would just be begging for trouble.
I wonder if its fully operational yet.
@Caio: seconded. It’d be like opening a daycare center next door to a dingo farm.
Hmm, wasn’t that a Far Side cartoon?
lol Where’s the exhaust port to fire a rpg at?
“I felt a great disturbance in the Force… as if millions of geeks cried out in joy and suddenly came all over themselves… I fear something terrible has happened.”
Vader: Don’t be too proud of this technological terror you’ve constructed. The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the Force.
Motti: Don’t try to frighten us with your sorcerous ways, Lord Vader. Your sad devotion to that ancient religion has not helped you conjure up the stolen data tapes, or given you clairvoyance enough to find the rebels’ hidden fortress…
**Vader Choke**
Vader: I find your lack of faith disturbing.
Black Helmet Man: I will allow no rest until the Thumbellion is totally neutralized.
Imperial Thumb: Excuse me, Black Helmet Man, but our super space station can easily thwart any actions of the Thumbellion.
Black Helmet Man: Do not underestimate the power of the Thumb!
Imperial Thumb: Oh, don’t try to scare me with your ooby-dooby magic talk, Helmet Man. Your “I’m a horrifying warlock and I’m going to get you with my mystic potions” talk sicken me! I laugh at you and your “I’m a frightening wizard” threat of hostility. Why don’t you gather some frog legs and eyes of a newt, and conjure up a potion that will get you your face back, and perhaps make you one mere ounce less pathetic than you truly are!
*Chokes Imperial*
Imperial Thumb: *strangled gasping*… Or not!
*Head pops off*
Black Helmet Man: Any other comments?
British Thumb: I have a question! Why is it that we all speak in British accents, when we’re from outer space where there’s no Britain?
*Head pops off*
That’s no moon, it’s a hotel!
Dark Helmet: Who made that man a gunner?
Maj. Asshole: I did, sir. He’s my cousin.
Dark Helmet: Who is he?
Col. Sandurz: He’s an Asshole, sir.
Dark Helmet: I know that. What’s his name?
Col. Sandurz: That is his name, sir. Asshole, Major Asshole.
Dark Helmet: And his cousin?
Col. Sandurz: He’s an Asshole too, sir. Gunner’s Mate, First Class, Philip Asshole.
Dark Helmet: How many Assholes we got on this ship, any how?
Everyone: Yo!
Dark Helmet: I knew it. I’m surrounded by Assholes. Keep firing, Assholes!
reminds me of that Family Guy episode – where Stewie is asking abt that major design flaw..hehe love Family Guy
lol

Gay.
“If you build it….Nerds will come.”
The construction workers who are killed all should have known better and are not hapless victims of the Rebels.
Oh, yes… There will be Jihad…
…that’s no moon.
