          DEATH STAR
Special Selection June 2009 This spherical moon size battle station produces the mother of all laser beams. The Death Star is capable of moving throughout the galaxy, destroying entire planets and spreading fear like a shadow of impending doom. 75 miles in diameter it has a surface like a metropolis full of detention blocks and interrogation cells. The death star is capable of housing a billion people and requires a million personnel to operate.

    MIRACLE ON ICE
5th Place March 09 This is another entry that has been nominated a few times. Granted, we live in a hockey town, and spend a lot of hours at the rink. AwesomeOff in general is not a place to celebrate traditional sporting awesomeness, we feel there are millions of fans, packed stadiums and billions of dollars that give pro athletes all the love they really need. But the 'Miracle on Ice' stands out in our minds. Never was there a game that had more riding on it, that was a bigger upset, that had a more improvable outcome than this game. If you are American, its the single greatest moment in the history of the olympics. If you are Russain, maybe it was they day you started to wonder if the Soviet Union was long for the earth. If you have seen the recent film on the subject, great. But this is not an event that really needed to be dramatized. Hollywood to this day has never dreamed up a story as great as this game. We recommend the 2001 documentary 'Do You Believe in Miracles'. It does such a great job of capturing the scene, the mood, the times, and spends a good deal of time with the Russian players as well as the Americans.

The Death Star could have destroyed the planet of the Jar Jar Binkses, but didn't.

It should have...

I know! That's an epic fail!
reply
Totally, epic epic fail

I think the fact that a bunch of personafied catfish were able to take down that many droids and not get blown up only increases a giant laser's awesomeness.
reply
If it did, it would have been even more awesome.
reply
yea lets all vote for queen of the mist now
reply
You people are voting for something that is used to efficiently kill billions of innocent people at a time. Sure, it is fictional, but you are still voting for a fictional floating planetwide holocaust device. Think about it.
reply
Sorry, much like Yorky, I have to vote against religious fanatic terrorists like Luke Skywalker, so the Death Star has my vote.
reply
Your logic has won me over. A vote for the Death Star is a vote for peace, justice, law, order, and the American way. A vote for Che Guevara is a vote for Luke Skywalker, Osama bin Laden, and the families of the victims of 9/11 who don't support the Iraq War.

This is suddenly the best political debate I have heard in 10 years
reply
I actually noticed that there are no legit Death Star pictures in this slideshow. It must be so awesome, everyone just know what that is.
