What Morgenstern Learned from NYCC 2015
Dressing up like Booster Gold and hanging out with your best friend sure looks like a lot of fun.
Recorded at New York Comic Con 2015 by BYB FILMS. Cosplayers unknown. Video spotted on Youtube and brought to my attention by Morgenstern. Thanks to all.

I'm Getting Too Old for This Stuff
Oooh. Looks like we need a run-off!
Last week's poll question: What style would be the best fit for a Booster Gold movie? (55 votes)
In related news, Shawn dropped by the comments yesterday to say that he spoke to Dan Jurgens last weekend (presumably at the Midwest Comic Book Association 2015 Fall Comicon) and came away with the impression that "it would be a solo Booster movie not including Beetle." (To be clear: I'm quoting Shawn, not Jurgens.)
It seems Hollywood can't have a big budget superhero movie without introducing at least one love interest for their bachelor protagonists. That being the case, it seems likely that Booster will have a girl to romance between whatever crises he's managing solo. Is it enough to win the day, or does Booster have to win the girl too?

What We Learned from NYCC 2015
Not a lot of Booster Gold news out of New York Comic Con this year. Is there really a Booster Gold movie in the works? Warner Brothers still isn't talking.
But while Warner remains silent, late-night comedian and writer Seth Meyers wasn't so shy. He held a panel at NYCC which Brett White covered for Spinoff Online.
"When I read comics, I loved teams. I loved X-Men and Justice League for that reason. Superman on his own is less interesting than Superman with Batman." [Moderator Jesse David] Fox then asked Meyers about his favorite X-Men and Justice League teams; Meyers called out the Blue Beetle/Booster Gold "Justice League" run and Joss Whedon's "Astonishing X-Men."
With fans like Nathan Fillion and Seth Meyers, how can we not get a Booster Gold movie in the works? (Thanks, Seth. We think that your show is pretty good, too.)

Movies as Sequential Art
For Consequence of Sound, Ben Kaye considers the impact that a Booster Gold movie could have on a unified DC Movie Universe:
Comic-like multiverses have worked before with
Smallville and look to be on the right track with The Flash and Legends [of Tomorrow]. It doesn't take a huge leap to see how DC could use characters like Booster Gold and Rip Hunter to establish a wider net for their complex of universes in a way that allows all of their properties to exist in the same field, if not the same timeline.
For Kaye's whole argument, check out consequenceofsound.net.
