It's nice, I guess, that the Premier took time out of gushing over Marvel's superhunks yesterday to thank the city for its patience with the traffic delays and inconveniences of hosting Thor: Ragnarok here in Brisneyland. It wasn't necessary, though. Only the most punishing bore or provincial sucktooth would surely object. After all, what is your temporary disruption and bother when measured against my eventual pleasure at seeing three or four blocks of this place atomised by the Hulk, or whoever the Hulk is HULK SMASHING in the next instalment of Marvel's Ring Cycle.
If the producers are reading this, I have some notes I'd be happy to share about a few worthy targets for a bit of smashy green lovin'. We could start with that stupid carpark near Ben's Burgers, which exists solely to lure unsuspecting drivers into a tow-truck trap, before moving on to the Story Bridge, when it's full of slouch bikers. Tourists come from all over the world to see the Story Bridge, and then they get delayed by slouch bikers and towed, just around the corner from Ben's Burgers, so I'm sure this would be popular.

Thor delights fans in Brisbane
Chris Hemsworth and Tom Hiddleston film scenes for Thor in Brisbane on Monday, taking time out to chat to fans and the media.
The Strong Choices Tower is looking close to finished, but hasn't filled up with squishy public servants yet. It would make a marvellously loud noise, crashing down with some super villain riding the penthouse south to oblivion. Mr Strong Choices himself would make an excellent super villain, just in case you're looking for one. The Riverside Expressway is crying out to be demolished; either by Thor and his magical nut cracker, or by the Hulk waving the Sky Needle around carelessly. (Be cool to see him put out the Brisbane Eye with that thing too).
They could usefully sink The Island, even if it was occupied at the time; I don't think anyone would object. In fact, make sure it's occupied and then get the Hulk to throw the Kookaburra Queen at it.
Knocking over the Batman Building on George Street would be a nice FU to DC. And since we're heading up that end of town, lets radically remodel the Transit Centre.
Finally. Chapel Hill.
HULK SMASH Chapel Hill.
Anyway, I have spoken to the producers and they are excited to hear your suggestions.
