The Golden Age of Cinema
One day, we will tell our grandchildren that we used to read comic books printed on paper about a character named Booster Gold. They'll probably look at us like we're making things up.
Last week's poll question: What do Booster Gold fans have to give thanks for in 2013? (44 votes)
1.) Booster Gold turns 30 in 2015.
2.) There's a rumor going around that DC wants to start producing more low budget movies about B-list heroes.

Holographic 3D Comics Are Not Yet an Option
It seems a shame that it is equally impossible that Alan Moore will ever write for Booster Gold as it is that Jack Kirby will rise from the dead to draw him.
Last week's poll question: Which legendary writer/artist duo would you have liked to see collaborate on Booster Gold? (42 votes)
After last week's poll exercise in the classics, let's go back to the future!

Big Screen Booster Gold
Adding to the total number of movies including Booster Gold (total: 2), over the weekend I pleasantly discovered that Booster Gold is briefly seen in the 2010 movie Cop Out thanks to his JLI teammate Black Carnary.
Early in the movie during the investigation of a crime scene within a hobby shop, Adam Brody shows the camera a Justice League International Series 1 Black Canary figure. Prominent on the packaging is the Justice League International line-up, including Booster Gold.

Booster Gold: conquering Hollywood one movie at a time.

This Shore Is Not Booster Gold: The Movie
Since Shawn posted in Friday's comments that the Dan Jurgens JLA poster appeared in the Pauly Shore "classic" Son in Law, I devoted several hours to tracking down the movie and watching it for the first time. It was time well spent.

There are a couple of scenes about 30 minutes into the movie that take place in a teen-aged boy's bedroom. On the wall of the room are posters of John Stewart as Green Lantern, Lobo, the JLI and (gasp!) the X-Men. In case you can't tell, that gold and blue blob at the top of the screen to the right of Pauly Shore's temple is Booster Gold. I suppose if Son in Law is good enough to be the first movie role for Tiffani-Amber Thiessen, it's good enough for Booster Gold's first movie appearance as well.
(On a side note, I found the movie oddly endearing. Sure, it's stupid, formulaic and occasionally insulting, but it's also kind of charming. Just don't tell anybody I said that.)

Bars vs. Internet: Discuss
Once upon a time, people met in bars, got generally messed up, and passed the time taking sides in ridiculous and improbable arguments. This, in fact, is the entire foundation of the long-running television sitcom Cheers. Thankfully, the prevalence of the internet has brought those pointless conversations out of smoke-filled bars into the home and workplace. I present "Iron Man & War Machine vs. Blue Beetle & Booster Gold." Talk amongst yourselves.
