[kiss899isis]

フィフスエレメント！！みたいな都市だな。行ってみたいな

[Littlemeister]

Why cant my town of 70 k ppl also think like this.... wää why god why!

[Cacowninja]

4 people can't design squat.

[razzerkatana]

i dont really like abu dhabi or dubai but the architects did a great job and came up with great ideeas.

[duppykitoon]

I love that Muslims stone women to death in the public square for committing adultery. So advanced!

[Koolaiddewz]

@duppykitoon

I love that you think that. So intelligent!

[duppykitoon]

@Koolaiddewz I'm just so glad that you approve.

[passingbynight]

@duppykitoon I'm sure the spiteful rumor-mongering and reputation destroyer gossip of American women is kinder.

[duppykitoon]

@passingbynight Are you on drugs?

[passingbynight]

@duppykitoon No, I'm not American ;-)

[duppykitoon]

@passingbynight Oh, really? And what country is it that you live in where no one takes drugs?

[passingbynight]

@duppykitoon not replying any further, dude. Have a nice day.

[sondano]

Jesus, aren't there enough idiotic buildings in the emirates already? One is uglier than the other. So much wasted matter and energy

[qqq3434]

Nice, thanks for information

[mohomoho2001]

Well that would take a few thoudand years...

[Goingby20s]

@mohomoho2001 I don't known about the others, but the Louvre museum is expected to be completed by 2012.

[Fuzzy192006]

Nice place, too bad it's populated by fundamentalist troglodytes.

[klejs88]

@Fuzzy192006 and ur from the US I suppose? well cant tell me thats any better? fundamentalists? lol

[Kyle15bitch]

if my country spent all their money on these kind of building programs, America would be a cool place, but no we spent most of our money funding the military

[sondano]

@Kyle15bitch as a non-American I have to say someone has to do that as long as morons like Kim Jong Il exists. Actually I'm grateful that the US has the most sophisticated military not Russia or China

[astrialkil]

@sondano Actually China is now fielding the worlds first Carrier based stealth Fighter. And china is planning on building more then 22. So America is no longer the most advanced and our 22 Raptors just wont make a dent in their hundreds. Russia may not have the most advanced military hardware but they have upgraded theirs to be roughly as good if not better then what Europe is fielding, and in larger numbers then the euros. It will be interesting to see if Europe rearms as America falls.

[Kanoki989]

@astrialkil America has fielded stealth fighters since 2005, moron... China isn't expected to start producing them until 2014.

[astrialkil]

@Kanoki989 America only has 22 F22 Raptors and F117 is removed from service. 22 don't amount to shit, there just for looking pretty. The Chinese have fielded their first carrier based stealth fighter. The US has NO carrier based stealth fighters.

[AgrivatedKillah]

@astrialkil America is the most advanced... you're an idiot man.

Especially when it comes to military.

[darthgabriel97]

Looks like the senate building in Star Wars

[dreamerberlin]

the insane part of the whole idea is still nationalism and stupid pride. for making the desert a liveable place, energy and material has to be transported (ripped out) from other parts of the earth. I wonder if this is, what their cultural and religios believesystems tell them to do, or if this is just sick, male ego that wants to proof who is the king of the hill... :(

[Mr89Amerigo]

It's great those filthy rich ARABS put their money to work...good for them. Do they have bullet trains yet, or are they going to cop those in the near future?

[FruityFruitfull]

@Mr89Amerigo bullet trains are running throughout the city as of 2 years ago

[Bruce99100]

I would love to see some of the paintings and sculpture intended for those museums.

[nickzah]

UAE are smart, investing in tourism for the future when oil runs out

[TheJaccen]

The building at 0:18 looks like the Senate Building in Star Wars :D

[robbie84]

the UAE is making cities that'll put every country to shame :(

lucky they are :)

[Indigozek]

Abu Dhabi is a shit hole. And those buildings are worthless considering they don't incorporate any natural shapes. Check out "Dreamfield"

[ravel111]

@Indigozek stop spouting shit. Natural shapes isn't a requirement for good architecture.

[Indigozek]

@ravel111 Yes it is actually. If you understand how architecture affects us, then you would understand that any non sacred geometric building made out of non natural materials is shit.

[ClinicallyObeseMule]

everyone spam random comments to stop these pointless arguments that won't affect anyone going on...

[WakyWakyGarfield]

It definitely is exciting, but it looks weird to me. Those designs look way too abstract. I like that tallest hotel in dubai though.

[darthgabriel97]

That one that looks like a sponge looks like the Senate building from Star Wars

[hashemgr3]

stop it ppl we are all Muslims IRAN / UAE or other Arabic Muslim country

[debboraspa]

thay creating for millions jobs for the french and europeans. but the arabs them selfs are hungry and watching shame shame shame on the UAE.

[zayedaltamimi]

4 ur fucking info. bitches, Greece is going down with bankrupcy so goes with spain, italy, UK and ofcourse US in the short-term ... so we in GCC region especially UAE which appear u don't like u assholes can buy all the Greek islands so goes with every country including US ..so save ur pathetic dignity later, CUZ WE'RE COMING SISSY GENRE

[mggz123]

awesome



[DrGM818]

AbuDhabi Owns 85% of total UAE oils , unlike dubai which owns only 13% .... so in fact you can imagin how powerful abudhabi is , but they are way slower , and they let dubai to pass them in the race to the future , just only to learn from their mistake , and to avoid what happened to Dubai now , however AbuDhabi now (I'm as a resident) is just moving twice as fast as Dubai , and in the next 10 years it will be way infront of dubai .... but best of all , AbuDhabi is a green city unlike dubai

[kessmypersainass]

@DrGM818 UAE will come back home to the mother land so will BAHRIAN.....LONG LIVE IRAN ZAMIN,back when you were eating lizards PERSIA was the center of the world,YOU CANT BUY CLASS...

[DrGM818]

@kessmypersainass my dear friend ... i'm Egyptian ... and at the second that Iran is going to step one single step in UAE , we will crush your country to the ground level ... Iran has already troubles with egypt , and we'll never let UAE alone neither the entire world will ...

[kessmypersainass]

@DrGM818 your country is facing its own problems you are in no position to talk ..the death of mubarak is right around the corner.......we will see where egypt will be then.....IRAQ had no chance what makes you think these citys will put up a fight???egypt cant even help the palestines right next door.....go talk your childish games to kids.LONG LIVE IRAN ZAMIN

[DrGM818]

@kessmypersainass will you should say that yourself , and learn from iraq , never challenge the entire world , and , egypt has it's own problem , yes that's right , but still the army is the upper hand here , and even in the entire ME area , and you can read the CIA's report in the "world fact book" about that , palestenian and UAE are totally different matters

[kessmypersainass]

@DrGM818 UAE knows its history so dose bahrain ,and they know they are iranian lands...thats why they have bought so much weapons,and asked the 5th fleet to be stationed there my dear friend,the shieks might rule the land but the populations are up to 70% iranian...is only a matter of time beafor they come back home..LONG LIVE IRAN ZAMIN

[DrGM818]

@kessmypersainass iranian doesn't even reach 20% anymore here ... and by reading history , and islamic history , UAE was never Iranian's land , and even if it was , that does never allow you to reclaim it , other wise you'll be excusing the Israelis for reclaiming Palestinian lands

[kessmypersainass]

@DrGM818 call it what you want ,iran will not sit Idle and have its land ocuppied,iran is a nuclear power state and time has come to get its land back...and dont worry when UAE and BAHRIAN come back home the population will be back to normal.70/30...LONG LIVE IRAN ZAMIN....iraq is under irans controll what makes you think these small CITYS will have a chance ????TEHRAN BY IS SELF IS BIGGER THE BOTH COUNTRIES...

[DrGM818]

@kessmypersainass iraq ... sigh , you call what you do in iraq is control !!!

you couldn't beat iraq in 10 years of wars in 1980s .... and now when you are manipulating a dead country you call it power .... LOOOOL ...

believe it or not ... UAE shiekhs bought alot of weapons , and if under any circumstances iran used a nuclear weapon against UAE , they still can buy hundreds of nuclear weapons to rain over your country when they have nothing left to be lost ... stupid

[kessmypersainass]

@DrGM818 iraq will never rise to challange persia not for a nother 2000years...so the plan for iraq is going jus fine....and iran fought 47 countries the whole world inculding all supper powers, sadam was just the face of it...look what happend to him....so lets not talk about dead sadamLOOOOOOLL.and UAE and BAHRAIN will come back home with out a shot fierd.watch and learn.LOL

[tkathryyn]

@kessmypersainass I didn't say that you were white..you did. I'm asian and I don't wear a turban (it's not a towel fyi). Lizard actually tastes good. It tastes just like chicken. Lizard and bird have the same muscle structures that's why they taste similar. Washing ass with hands is cleaner than wiping with toilet paper alone. Now relax and enjoy because your ways in this world is not the only way. You are hypocrite if you are a minority dogging on other minorities.

[kessmypersainass]

@tkathryyn sounds like you have lost your sence of reason,you talk out of both sides of your mouth which shows your more ignorant then i thought.so once agian you proved my point

[tkathryyn]

@kessmypersainass ROFL. You explain my ignorance please to support your claim and point..or are you speaking out of your ass again? Now relax.

[meo109]

@DrGM818 why my friend are you waisting your time with jahil and stupid people like iranians, all muslims in this world are with you.

[meo109]

@DrGM818 absolutely abu dabhi is better than dubai

[Matttttttttttt12]

abu dhabi is tryin to become like dubai... even doha.....

"Dubai has done in 15 years, what it should have done in 50 years"

[pegobuilders]

Abu Dhabi has invested billions in an effort to transform itself into a global hub of green tehnology

[sko083]

anyone else notice abu dhabi is shaped like a uterus?

[knightkrew]

After the Dubai World credit default im pretty sure none of this will ever actually happen.

[ChristianLove2008]

this is Abu Dhabi not dubai, they are 2 different cities

[mmes85]

well ... actually all of these are going to happen. I know because I am one of the designers working on it.

[GtheMVP]

@knightkrew

Abu Dhabi has no shortage of money/oil, unlike like Dubai.

[hypermoro]

@GtheMVP actually its the other way round.. abu dhabi is the main benefactor for dubai

[TrueCommentary]

Fantastic, thanks for posting!

[BRRUUUAAHHable]

SAME FOR THE BIG PARIS = LE GRAND PARIS

bref, nice to see futur and evolution but ILLUMINATI are their for fuck us

[DARKinspirati0n]

Wow the 2nd n last r amazing, GO UA ^^

[worldoperator]

by 2020, the u.s. will resemble a 3rd world nation as compared to this place....

[TranswarpXL]

The US was built the right way, out of necessity, this place is being forced up, and noone can afford to live their. 70% of the residential buildings in Dubai are unoccupied and the same thing is going to happen to Abu Dhabi. I like the UAE but you can't force culture and property onto the world and expect results.

[worldoperator]

that makes sense, i just enjoy architectural progress in these directions. that is crazy about dubai. kinda like the iphone.. not as many could afford them at first but now they made their original investment so they can lower the price and now more can afford so they make even more ..maybe that will occur there unless they expect the wealthy of the world to flee there for some reason.

[IrishClaudius]

Every ruling class wants it's valhalla - this is capitalist valhalla where the heads of zombie banks go and spend the rest of their lives in pavilions of empty hollow fantasy .

[nilbud]

It already does

[ndemina]

Architecture is a reflection of it's time. And should not be categorized as styles. What i see is a deep reflection of the current concsiousness charactarised by limitless technology and a choreography of the human experience. . .A concerned architecture scholar.

[AZALKAMAAR11]

hey arabs wake up just dont be busy in making the building and this and all that -- rise and do something very important and useful-- develop ATOMIC AND NUCLEAR ARMSSSSSSS-thats the country real development if you have that you can control on all over the world just like AMERICA...

[StickyAnus]

please dont get jealous, arabs arent as genetically evil as your lot, fuck off.

[fcbristolcity]

Agree with your comment, why build bombs. The Emirate's are creaters not distroyers. Best of luck to the people of UAE.

[xerinx24]

sticky anus....Ew!

[Porto143]

fuck off asshole

[Ortzmet]

Those modernist designs become outdated very quickly. The ancient Greeks and Romans knew what they were doing when they designed within the "orders." Those architectural designs will never become dated, like the fancy but ugly stuff we still have from the 60's and 70's.

[StickyAnus]

The orders were done by the Egyptian.. the first order was done before the greeks by the Egyptians.... i suggest havin another ethnic digg at this video... and dont get jealous to quickly.

[brettwiggles]

i almost completely agree because this also has a close resemblance to all of the architecture and design from the 60s and 70s which at the time seemed "cool" "hip" or possibly "futuristic" when, now, we look at it and realize how outdated and stupid it really looks. (except for Ikea, they still haven't realized that yet) :-)

[AlternateArtisan]

very pretty designs in themeselve, but they do look abit to exotic for my tastes

[MLMleadsystemPRO]

freakin awesome!

this is what i'm talking about... beautiful, cutting-edge, lets go buy some islands!

brian

[s4hdy2jeo5w6uqh7]

amazing. definitely a source of good inspiration

[SleepingHog]

the west just is not at the races any more.

[vidsong2009]

Wow.
