Titanic II ship to set sail in 2016.

A new Titanic ship might be setting sail soon. There are plans to create ultra-modern, luxury version of the doomed ocean liner in China. These plans were announced by Billionaire mining magnate Clive Palmer.

"It will be every bit as luxurious as the original Titanic but of course it will have state-of-the-art 21st century technology and the latest navigation and safety systems," Palmer said, according to AFP.

He said Titanic II would make its maiden voyage from England to New York in late 2016.

"Titanic II will be the ultimate in comfort and luxury with on-board gymnasiums and swimming pools, libraries, high class restaurants and luxury cabins," Palmer said.

All I can say about this is that there better be enough lifeboats for EVERYONE on the ship and make sure that the ship is COMPLETELY UNSINKABLE.

Because naming a ship after the Titanic sounds like a good idea?

In such bad taste on so many levels!

Will they have a "Heart of the Ocean" Deluxe suite, complete with personal valet/henchman?

It's probably going to have a HUGE passenger list though. Come on. People love Titanic (both the movie and the actually ship and her history) so people are going to flock to this. If not for the experience, to be able to say they were on the "Titanic"

Now if only they would build an iceberg Theme Park off the coast of Newfoundland there this would dock, it would be awesome!

A ship built by the Chinese will probably malfunction halfway through, they won't need an iceberg to sink.

All the passagers would will have died of lead poisoning and tainted food before hitting the berg anyway.

I hope that in a hundred years, people can fly on a "retro" airplane that looks just like the ones that crashed into the World Trade Center ... but with state-of-the-art technology and no terrorists this time.

So glamorous!

Also, maybe in a hundred years they'll have "old-fashioned" cars exactly like the one Princess Diana was killed in. That would be so great to rent one for a prom night or a quick tour of Paris.

I want a nude girl with a huge rack in my stateroom so I can sketch her.

I also want to have sexual relations in a Rolls Royce in the underbelly of the ship.

If I can't do that, I'm not going!

I can just see the maiden voyage now, when everybody shows up in sweats, shorts, jeans, and flip-flops, wondering what happened to the "glamour."

What do you do when everybody on board is underdressed even for steerage?

The maiden voyage is going to be a theme cruise (period dress). And here I thought nothing was tackier than seeing the commercials on QVC over the weekend advertising that they'll be saluting The Titanic with Titanic inspired jewelry to hawk on their show Wednesday night.

Titanic hardcore fans are trashy. This will be the equivalent of a Renaissance Faire on the ocean. You couldn't pay me to engage in this level of disrespect.

Hopefully, that's modern, reinforced steel, growl, and not that cheap, brittle, hastily-produced, crap that hit the iceberg.

I'll say it for us all: We hope it sinks.
