Subject: Anyone know of Booster Gold? Thu Mar 11, 2010 12:21 am
From what I've seen of him on Batman Brave and the Bold, he's a cool guy, if a bit of a dick.
I might start reading the comics.

Basically, I just learned about him. He's a pretty interesting guy.

Batman The Brave and The Bold has done wonders for my perceptions of some of these heroes I've never known about or I've seen very little of.

Oh, it's really cheesy but it's still a good show. Oh and Aquaman is the largest of hams.

Oh and it spawned one of the best musical episodes in the history of anything.

The impression I've gotten from Linkara of Atop The Fourth Wall is that Booster Gold is one of DC's better characters. Him and Blue Bettle. ESPECIALLY Blue Beetle.

Huh, I stopped watching his reviews after the Power Rangers one because of how the last eight minutes of it were nothing but his bullshit crossover with Spoony.
If I wanted to watch awful effects and fighting all tied together with an equally terrible story, I'd fucking watch an Ed Wood movie.

I know of Booster Gold.
He used to be a clown until Geoff Johns got a hold of him and made him one of DC's top contenders (potentially).

We all know you won't really think it's that great in 3 or 4 months time.

*sigh* How much of his show have you actually watched? The whole "battle with Mechakara" thing was simply a conclusion to a running gag/story he'd been having for a while.
Quit your bitching over minor things and check out his other, superior material.

No, he's been doing this since that Battle in Chicago thing and quite frankly it's been annoying that whenever I watch one of these videos that I look for info of comics on that I have to see this stupid bullshit in it, I can stand it when it's a short gag but good lord these things tend to take up minutes.

So do some of the more tangental gags of the Nostalgia Critic and Spoony. Besides, most of the "Mechakara" segments were only post-episode teasers. Furthermore, that storyline is completely finished; you've decided to stop watching his show because of skits that he's finally stopped doing? That's just asinine.

And you didn't think I hated it then? With the NC it's pretty damn short or a few times and Spoony does it so much it's getting harder and harder to watch him.

And I can guarantee you they'll do it again at some point. They've been doing this for a while now with the damned Warrior review, the Adamantium Rage review, Avengers reviews, and they amped it up to its shittiest WITH THE LAST EIGHT MINUTES OF THE DAMN VIDEO DEDICATED TO THIS STUPID STORYLINE AND TERRIBLE EFFECTS.
I can not fucking watch him anymore because I honestly fined it hard to believe at this point he won't pull this again.

1) The Warriors review was Spoony's video, not Linkara's. 2) Adamantium Rage was a one-shot that isn't part of his core line-up. 3) Avengers? When did he ever review the Avengers? 4) The LAST eight minutes! Everything was fine until that point, right?
Shut your bitch ass up, grow a pair, and just skip over or ignore the parts you don't like! You CAN do that, you know! All it takes is a click of the mouse! Or are you too ignorant to even make the attempt, let alone think of it?
So shut up and get back in the field, soldier!

And Linkara had a hand in it along with several of the other website members.

It was still annoying as fuck to see Insano pop up when it was a perfectly good review on its own.
Even if he was only there for about a minute it was still pretty annoying.

The Avengers game, I don't remember the exact review but Linkara turned Spoony into one of the Black Lantern Corps or some bullshit like that.

Mechakara's general interaction was annoying but at least he stayed out of most of the review except for a few parts in-between and when I had first thought he went down in the first part, I was genuinely pleased because I thought Linkara was finally going to drop it.

Oh, so telling me to shut up and not voice my utter distaste for the shit a reviewer I once enjoyed is currently doing means I should grow a pair and it makes me a little bitch, huh?
Wow, how rational.

As you saw from BTB&TB Animated Series; Booster is a former "Museum Keeper" from the 25th century who stole some technology from there to show off as a superhero in the 20th century (back when he was created in the 80s, now in the 21st century). In comics he becomes less of a showoff and more of a true hero
