AFL SUPERHEROES TO TAKE FLIGHT IN DUCK-LANDS

Have you recovered from the Reverend at the royal wedding? Elton John hasn’t. Michael Curry used the word “love” 65 times during his 14-minute sermon watched live by hundreds of millions. Priceless.

Sir Elton looked like he wanted to go into Donald Trump mode and use another word the Rev. shouted: “You’re fired!”

THIS TACKY TRUMP COIN BROKE THE INTERNET

Speaking of the POTUS, Trump’s cavalier attitude has been met with resistance in Pyongyang, where he cancelled the upcoming North Korea summit ... then insinuated the US has superior nuclear weapons. Bad Korea move.

In the NBA, Aussie Aron Baynes is getting a better result for Boston Celtics with his bullish basketball attitude.

Baynes and co are acquitting themselves spectacularly against the best player in the world, Lebron James, and his mercurial Cleveland Cavaliers.

■ WISECRACKING mercenary Deadpool has more attitude than anyone this week, proving dead cool a second time around in Deadpool 2.

Kudos to crowds for getting into the filth and the fury in a time where many look over their shoulder to see if they’re allowed to laugh. Lighten up world.

REVIEW: DEADPOOL SEQUEL DOESN’T DISAPPOINT

As we marvelled at Ryan Reynolds’ star turn, news came through that Etihad Stadium will become Marvel Stadium. Perhaps they can get Billy Birmingham as The Twelth Man to launch it by performing his hit from 1992, Marvellous, opposite a Richie Benaud hologram. Super idea, that.

■ SPEAKING of the big stage, US artist Donald Glover is the man of the moment.

Wearing his Childish Gambino hat, he has the No.1 song in Australia with This Is America. Wearing his pistol holster, he’s about to notch up the No.1 movie, Solo: A Star Wars Story. Audiences are flocking in 12 parsecs.

Enjoy Sunday. Make your next move your best move.
