16 Buildings That Can't Hide That They're Actually Supervillain Lairs

I'll be the first to say it: architects are smarter than me. Every single one of them. They can do things like complicated math and planning for the way people will use spaces. My best use of space, bar none, is loading the dishwasher, and I basically use math to determine how many cups of coffee I can buy in a week. So they're way out in front of me. 

But if they're designing buildings for the supervillains movies have convinced us are out there, those architects aren't using their smarts to disguise them very well. In fact, there are a whole host of buildings around the world that just broadcast evil. Be on the lookout for more near you!

1. Nothing says "No, Mr. Bond, I expect you to die," like an abandoned sea fort. 

2. Has the mothership finally landed? No, it's just Ferrari World amusement park in Abu Dhabi. 

3. Most buildings would be more subtle about their missile silos. 

4. Very clever, disguising it as a church.

5. Anybody else feel like this is going to transform into a giant mechanical spider and run amok?

6. The Soviets mastered sinister buildings.

7. Hmmm, could some dark cabal possibly be gathering in a place like this?

8. Practically broadcasting a plot to drill into the Earth's mantle and release an earthquake bomb.

9. It would take one amazing superspy to infiltrate this mountain lair.

10. Are those gun ports or exhaust vents where all the evil vapors can escape?

11. So, uh, something's about to go down here, and it doesn't look good.

12. Apparently you can damage this building, but you can't kill it.

13. Can't say for sure that this is a murder hotel, but the red glow doesn't help anything.

14. Would not be surprised if the Illuminati held conferences here.

15. What a beautiful night for the armies of Mordor to march.

16. Why would you make a concrete-wrapped, windowless monstrosity right in downtown Manhattan if you weren't expecting trouble?
