So, without knowing anything about the source material, I have no interesting in seeing this film and the trailer didn’t do anything to change my mind.

But that’s me … if you’ve seen it, what was it that drew you in?

Haven’t watched it, the trailer or read anything about it.

I will pirate it once available to see if Booster Gold is in it. About it.

Booster is not in it. Wrong B.B. But he is going to have a TV show and there is room for Ted Kord to pop up in it.

Booster Gold (TV series)

"Booster Gold is one of comics' really popular cult heroes, he's a fascinating guy, he's a loser from the future who uses future technology to come back to present day and become a superhero so that people will love him. It is basically a superhero story of impostor syndrome in an HBO Max series." ―James Gunn Booster Gold is an upcoming American television series, based on the DC Comics superhero of the same name. It will be an installment of Chapter One: Gods and Monsters in the DC Universe. Th

I like the character and the actor, so I saw it today and was very pleasantly surprised and enjoyed it a lot.
I’m an old school Blue Beetle fan from the 70s. Loved every minute of it.
That’s cool! That sounds like the true experience fans are after in this comic movie era … see, for the first time, their fav character brought to life.
