Mildly interesting distraction.
Walking up Elizabeth Street to the bus stop. Heard the burble of a rather loud exhaust. Turned around to see a teal-coloured Mustang with "METROPOLIS" numberplates. WTF?!
And then I remembered... they are working on scenes for the next Superman flick "Superman Returns" (codenamed/working title "Red Sun") in Sydney CBD tonight. If anyone's interesting in popping down there for a sticky-beak, they will be filiming until 2am (around Elizabeth, Bligh and Phillip Streets). Then they'll spend the next couple of hours packing up before the roads reopen around 4.30am tomorrow (Monday).
