Death Star Hotel to built in Azerbaijan

Yes, that hotel strangely resembles the Death Star and no, your eyes aren’t playing tricks on you.

Heerim architects are looking to build the Star Wars staple in, of all places, Baku, Azerbaijan. They’re hoping to bring this design, called the Hotel Full Moon, and another, the Hotel Crescent, to one of the fastest growing economies and will rightly call the area Full Moon Bay.

I personally just think it’s a cover up for things to come and I’m taking the proper precautions.

The last time someone planned to build a Death Star, there was a little guy named Anakin walking around claiming to bring a balance in the force. And well, we all know how that one turned out.

If anyone needs me, I’ll be in a bunker in Iceland rounding up Wookies and Ewoks.

May the Force be with you.
