Planet “Ramb-Ho”

Rambo on Planet Hollywood

So it starts. We knew that Planet Hollywood would start defacing the outside of the Aladdin when they took it over, but the fact that it has officially started is a bummer.

Granted it’s not nearly as bad as the humongous vodka ads on the side of the Luxor, but I always hate it when they turn the properties into giant billboards.

The one exception being the Toni Braxton ad on the side of the Flamingo. I’ve been trying to get a Vagina Room for over a year, but have so far been unsuccessful.

Anyway, didn’t Stallone drive the original Planet Hollywood into bankruptcy?

I’m not sure if that’s the first image I would want on the “Grand Opening” of the new property.

I guess the rationale is that Rambo would never file for bankruptcy, he would just shoot and brutally stab all the creditors.

Maybe it’s up there as a “never again” warning to potential collection people that the property won’t be taken alive.

Or maybe it’s simply there because a new “Rambo” movie is coming out, despite the fact that “Rambo” now takes Geritol and dribbles when he pees due to an enlarged prostate?

It could be any of the above.

Is it me, or does the billboard look a little like the Shroud of Turin?

Maybe Jesus is coming to a theater near me on January 25th?

Either way, I’m not paying $7.50 for a ticket.
