Come waste your millions here
Secretly she sneers
Another corporate show
A guilty conscience grows
And I'll feel a guilty conscience grow
And I'll feel a guilty conscience grow
She burns like the sun
And I can't look away
And she'll burn our horizons
Make no mistakes
Come let the truth be shared
No one ever dared to break
These endless lies
Secretly she cries
She burns like the sun
And I can't look away
And she'll burn our horizons
Make no mistakes
And I'll hide from the world
Behind a broken frame
And I'll run forever
I can't face the shame
And I'll hide from the world
Behind a broken frame
And I'll run forever
I can't face the shame - ภาพยนตร์และแอนิเมชัน

Man the dcau is something we'll never see again. It is so perfect
Greatness can never be replicated
@@MazeDaGr8 i dont know maze i have seen greatness come back when we need it most
Young... Justice.
I wouldn't say that. But this was truly special.
never say never, maybe it won't be like the dcau, but it can capture the spirit
I love Booster Gold man.
To add more about Booster Gold and his JLU episode, I'll also add another great episode about him in Justice League Action which is "Time Out" where he and Batman are under a time fissure and have to fight a Chronovore. At the end of the episode Booster Gold has to separate from Batman in order to do what he has to do but in doing that, Batman will not remember everything they went through and all he said was
"Don't worry Bats. I'll remember."
Then Batman says
"You're a better person than anybody gives you credit for. Maybe one day I'll find that out."
Justice League Action is considered the inferior Justice League Animated show (what did they expect from a show targeted for kids) but it surprised me how it has great episodes like this.
I believe he also appeared in Batman: The Brave and the Bold. I think him and Skeet get trapped in a hadron collider.
@Hyper Druddigon that's where I know him from
Omg I remember that episode. Never finished justice league action tho since it’s specifically targeted for kids.
YES! That episode was great!
People dismissed Batman: The Brave and the Bold the same way. Doing so was a mistake! Yes, Batman was a much lighter take on the character, but a valid one. And making Batman be a lighter character who pairs with most often third and fourth string heroes makes the show hit all the harder when it does something big about genuine sacrifice or Batman having a chance to kill Joe Chill or, knowing that he knows Batman's secret, bring him to justice.
If everything is weighty like that, then those stories don't have much impact. But when Batman is otherwise saying goofy crap like how the villains are going to face the "hammers of justice" … lolwut?
Justice League Action is aimed at kids, but that's fine. It still finds ways to be good despite that.
What I can't seem to get into is the current Harley Quinn stuff. They've turned her into a cheap caricature of herself try and be edgy, and it doesn't work for me.
Booster Gold: the greatest hero you have never heard of.
FUCK that's a great fucking book name or movie or show. I love my golden wannabe hero, who's a Hero
This is the start of the hero of Time he starts to change the timeline when he can
@toganium4175
Sums up my introduction to him as a kid. My dad knew he was which didn't surprise me given his comic-book collection.
The fact that you have a Toga profile picture only makes me wish for a character that is just like Booster Gold in the universe of MHA.
I always tell people that Booster Gold is my favorite hero. They always go "who?" And I just smile because that's canon. Love you boosty
He isn't my favorite, but he is way up there. Love the guy.
Yeah. He’s one of my favorites. And I love him, too. I feel bad for him. Especially in this JLU episode. Bro had a change of heart and he stopped doing it for fame. And when he did what he was encouraged to do, he got the girl in the end. ^^
If only Batman, Superman, MMH, and everyone else would see that and see that he’s not really bad.
@JakeMillerWirehair who's mmh? Oh wait martian man hunter
@@NevinWarrior-es6ds Yeah
I love Booster Gold. Because he wants to be rich. He wants to be famous, and loved. But when nobodys looking. When nobody will know. He's still a Hero. Through and through.
My favorite part of this episode has to be when Booster saves a kids ant farm from a burning building, pretty wholesome tbh. Booster Gold is probably the best jobber superhero, definitely needs his own film.
Well he gets a show, that's fine by me.
He's getting a movie in James Gunn's DCU, all right!
That booster gold episode really stuck with me as a kid. The moral of the story is seemingly so simple: The pursuit of heroism for fame and fortune is folly, it's the acts of heroism that matter in the end.
😊😅😅😅😅😅😊😊😊😊😊😊😅😊
I really do love this episode and its focus on Booster Gold showing that the most mundane/smallest people can have an interesting & important impact on the world. Can't wait to see him in the DCU. I also love that the DCAU centred on crafting a world that wasn't our literal world but a world full of metahumans, aliens, gods, magic, Atlanteans, New Gods, etc... and didn't try too hard to reflect the real world at the time, but personify and bring to life a better world that we could achieve.
I have a friend who reads tarot cards, and she got the DC tarot deck.... but she doesn't know DC comics very well, so she was asking me who the characters were so she could read the deck properly.
The card with Booster Gold roughly means " Fake It Until You Make It". I was laughing so hard I fell out of my chair!
So is it like its own thing or was Booster Gold the Fool?
It's crazy how that episode had absolutely no bearing on the rest of the series and is 100% stand alone. But it's absolutely one of the best episodes of JLU. Man I wish they would just make JLU again, or treat the cw shows as a justice league (remember when they formed the justice league and then never came together for anything ever?)
Why do they need to be made again? Just watch the originals.
It’s one of my favorites, just because it introduced me to Booster Gold.
Booster Gold's episode was one of my favourites. He showed that everyone can shine in a team which is a equality to gods of Olympus.
The mundane world of the JLU is also touched on in Task Force X where the Tower is infiltrated. The episode opens up the idea of the ordinary people who work beside the super heros to help them do their "job". What does a janitor of the Justice League space station think about his job? How about the public relations team who helps coordinate with military and local forces when the JLU is trying to help them.
There's a lot of fun irony in this episode. Of course, there's obvious things like Booster saving the day from a totally different apocalypse than the one the episode is ostensibly about but is never shown, he realizes what a true hero is, yadayada. But besides selflessness, he also learns to be happy about the little things. By the end, it doesn't matter to him that he isn't world-famous: He has a date with this girl who's seen him at his worst & still likes him.
And yet, even though he's not remembered in the story, I think this is one of the more memorable episodes of JLU. Granted, it has a lot of competition, but I remember Booster Gold entirely because of this episode. So, while episodes like the season finales may also be memorable, they have an advantage in that they're carried by these big name characters like Lex Luthor, Brainiac, & Darkseid. That this story of Booster Gold doing crowd control & stumbling on an accident he needs to fix because everyone else is too busy can compete with those episodes is worth some bonus points, I think.
This episode also showed me how a time travel plot can still work logically. It made me think and realise that, once we found out Boosters origin, nobody could ever know about Boosters heroic deed no matter how great it would be. After all, in the future, he took some random costume and gadgets from a museum to use them for his super hero alter ego, but if Booster Gold ever became a famous person this wouldn't add up. He'd be a historic person, someone even a regular joe like him would know by some form of cultural osmosis, but that isn't the case. Heck, the display of the costume didn't even have a name tag on it, so it is save to assume Booster Gold ended up being the hero version of a Z-List level celebrity at best during his tenure.
And, you know what? Looking at him at the end of that episode I'd bet it wouldn't change a thing for Booster Gold if he'd ever realized this himself, because he started to become a true hero at that point. Doing good because it is good, and not just to get fame and fortune. An ideal of the silver age of heroes.
@EnerKaizer
the story of booster gold is a rather sad one , he was an 25th century football star who future was bright until his loving mother caught an devastating disease and with no where to turn to he started betting on his own games to get the money for her treatment, he got her the treatment she needed ,but he got caught and sent to prison, after serving his time , he barely got an job as a security guard for a space museum, then seeing the 21th century hero exhibit , he has a plan , he took all of the tech he could including the time machine of the hero rip hunter , who was secretly booster gold's son.
he started he own business and gained money to betting on stock market , later on he became best friends with blue beetle (the non space bug one) and had countless wacky adventures, later he choose an path he could not publicize, fixing issues throughout the timelines saving the world and timeline all by himself and giving the credit to other people , and also told his mother all of this she was worried about him , she is really proud of him.
so he became the greatest hero that you never heard about...
That was my first episode of JLU. It always stuck with me as a kid and I was extremely mad we never got another episode with Booster Gold. Glad they used the same voice actor in Batman: Brave and The Bold.
I’d love to see Implicitly tackle Justice League Action in a video or two someday. It has a very similar sense of world building and character to the DCAU (though obviously much more toned down and played mostly for comedy).
It even has its own “Greatest Story Never Told” style episode with Booster, wherein Batman learns that for all of goofiness and showboating, that Booster is actually a hardworking and competent hero (before then getting his memory wiped at the end).
The material may not be as rich, but I think there’s potential for a vid somewhere!
The Greatest Story Never Told is one of my favorite animated episodes ever, it is a really unique take on Superhero media. Him just being a loser who doesn't want to be a loser was handled so well, the themes of individualism were really well done, not overdone and pretentious, not out of touch. Truly perfect. This was surprisingly lonely.
Man I love Green Lantern.
You should read Booster Gold vol. 1 by Dan Jurgens then, it's this episode turned up to 11. Booster goes more Bombastic and Gets Beat down way more.
@Unkbn I've read it now and wow, that story felt me with so much social acceptance for myself in a way. I'm such a fucking idiot, and I for once am fine with that. Very relatable story. It's like there's this continuos tense of just my life.
Additionally it’s a great example of what being a superhero is all about. He wants to be a part of the big epic fight with mordru, all the destructive battle and spectacle, but instead he’s helping civilians away to safety, saving a kids pet, delivering a baby and solving other problems like the black hole man. And in the end his battle went unnoticed but he is still did good and is reworded a quite recognition of getting a date with the scientist, as well as I’d like to think the people he did help while not showering him with fame will still remember the nice man in the gold suit.
I like how you mention sincerity. Nowadays, it’s hard to find a show about something nerdy like Fantasy, Sci Fi, or Super heroes without it either being a lampshady comedy or some grim dark retelling.
John was a marine and then joined the space cops of course he folds his socks
Loved booster gold in this episode, glad he was in Brave & The Bold too.
I think Brave and the Bold had the same voice actors too
Chris Pratt or Joel McHale as Booster Gold in Gunn's DCU & Booster will finally get the love he deserves. Booster is one of DC's most underrated heroes. Plastic-Man deserves more too.
Pratt as Booster & Joel McHale as Plastic-Man
I dunno who should play Ted Kord the OG Blue Beetle. Reyes has the Scarab, so more OP & deserves to be the Blue Beetle on a team & Kord should only suit up to help Booster, but Ted Kord can help like Oracle does when she can't walk
@@benparrish672Nah Joel McHale could do a better booster gold. His performance as jeff winger in community shows how he can portray a witty character with a shallow personallity and friendly arrogance.
And this is why Booster Gold is getting his own movie/show
Yes, a video about my favorite Green Lantern.
that episode where booster gold saved the city but another hero got the credit exemplifies that sometimes good people arent always recognised for the good they do, at least he got the girl
Your introduction monologue for this video really sums up how I came to love, and still love superhero media. Lucky to have grown up on JL and JLU as well!
This episode really made me a fan of Booster after that. It was always nice to see him pop up on occasional missions after that as like a filler hero or what not, because it meant that he not only stuck with the JLU but usually based on his appearance, he always seemed serious, as opposed to before when he always had that shit eating smirk. Its like a very subtle hint that 'yeah, he gets it now'
And its episodes like this that really pointed out just how amazing and interesting all the other characters could be outside the big 6. Like Shining Knight, or Vigilante, or The fucking Question who was my absolute favorite character in this series.
booster gold is my favorite dc character. not only did he steal his companion and his powers. he traveled back in time to make something of himself instead of a failed football player. it's just so different than oh these superheroes lost someone important and gained a super power.
Not everything in the DCAU was perfect, but it's probably the closest we'll ever get to it in any superhero universe (perhaps even including the comics, given the pitfalls of that longform), and this just highlights one of those ways it neared perfection.
One of my favorite episodes. Booster and Ted should still get a goofy buddy-cop spin off.
Never read a single comic book, but even with this being the only time I've seen booster gold, he's one of my favorite heroes
My window into the superhero comics/movies ^^
Booster Gold was the best part about DCAU growing up
Booster’s always been my fave. Was so happy he got some recognition
One of my favorite episodes of JLU
Metropolis is not every place, it is every _city._ You could argue that it is every _Western_ city, but that's not important, I find it more notable that so few hero stories take place in locales like Smallville. I mean, it makes sense, but when Metropolis is all you get, it shapes your perception of superheroes.
By the way, I fucking love this episode, and I could watch videos about this one episode all day. Question Authority is my favorite, but this is definitely top 5.
I love this channel, every time I watch a video from you, I gain a powerful lesson in storytelling.
well, i get to have my "actually" moment
In star wars, Luke talked about nailing womp rats in his t-16. he is talking about the T-16 Skyhopper. the T-16 was bult by Incom the same company that produces the x-wing. the main reason for its wide spread use aside from being a jack of all trades was its ease of use as its control layouts were universal. if you can fly a t-16 you can handle an x-wing. this made things really easy for the rebellion because trying to train pilots can be difficult. but with incom, if you have flown a Incom machine you could fly any Incom machine.
Funny thing the Xwing during the galactic civil war was designed and sold as a civilian ship. it was not until after the Empire was beaten that the Xwing would enter offical military service in the new republic.
“i thought you were green lantern” iconic brilliant totally unique never the same
I just admire how you continue churning out these great videos that could already be good topics for a college paper. Tasteful random thoughts refined into something entertaining and academic.
being loved and appreciated by one person is better than being recognized by the world is what i get from this, its a nice message :)
Thank you so much for all your amazing content. Growing up on the DCAU its awesome to see that there are others who love this universe and universes of DC animation as a whole. Love your content so much keep up the amazing work.
this is my favorite episode, thanks for covering it!
The animation style was amazing. Simplistic and true to nature. The plot and writing along with accurate portrayals of all the characters made this show close to perfect
... and then in the comics Booster Gold saves Batman's parents just so he can take credit for how much better Bruce's life is if they're actually dead.
Even though I still don't like him as a character Booster earned a tiny bit of respect. They did a good blend of the world building. I think that's what the DCEU struggled with in the beginning and still now. I really hope James Gunn looks at this show and builds his world from here. Takes his own spin on it.
Favorite episode in the show. JLU is forever goated
I’ve been rewatching this show recently and it is as good as you remember 😊
Honestly her quote to motivate him was golden. It's really just good writing.
Man, i love your videos. Keep up the good work!
that was an amazing episode. That taught very important lessons we all need.
Booster Gold is my 2nd favorite superhero ever and you explained why he is so important and cool so thank you
He has some of the most advanced technology in the dcu. Very underrated character
The Huntress "Have you taken out the trash?"
The Question "Talking to it right now."
Booster Gold "Hey!"
Yup, that sums up Booster Gold perfectly...
Your videos on the dcau are amazing man keep it up
The JLU was one of my absolute favorite series of my childhood.
one of my most favorite episodes!
When they finally mentioned Vibe out loud =D
When it was specifically to denigrate booster gold XD
A single espisode, that's all he got and that's all it took to make me a fan, just like the scientist lady. Hard not to like him
I'd love to see him get more focus again if it's done this well
I'm currently watching the DCAU from the beginning, Batman The Animated Series is so good, but both Justice League series were amazing, they Tied each show and they introduced so many characters in a awesome and cool way
Another absolute banger, but one of these days I really gotta add the whole series to my video collection it's just too good.
I remember getting booster golds #1 comic, there was a mystery and allure of his ring at the time.
Every video about the DCAU makes me wanna watch all of the shows again.
I like this. Thank you
fantastic as always
I remember having a dvd as kid were I have this episode, for the man who has everything and when Amazo return, and those were the only episodes i have seen of the series, i think they we're still on TV in that time but i was to young so i don't have any memories
... I have been binging videos on Alan Wake, and the second you said "it's no place", I knew what you were going to bring up. Anywhere, USA. A place you're intimately fimiliar with but have never been to or seen.
How did I get here so fast, I'm not even subscribed??
...
Well I guess I probably should just subscribe now
This was such a good episode of JLU
I remember liking to see booster gold whenever he showed up, and later when I read justice league international I wished him and blue beetle would get up to shenanigans in JLU.
Man, this just made me want for you to talk about The Brave and The Bold episode with Booster where he goes back in time, because he misses Blue Beetle.
I always found the parallels between this episode and the Buffy: The Vampire Episode "The Zeppo" interesting. Both feature an apocalyptic battle occurring in the background, both feature protagonists sidelined from the main battle, in both the protagonist's plot goes from being a small stakes story to an incredibly high stakes one and in both the protagonist never gets recognition for saving everyone but has found the self-confidence to not let that bother him the way it once did.
Luke Skywalker was a very accomplished T-15 Sky hopper pilot before he left Tatooine.
Vixen: he folds his socks, hahahaha
Mdm, that's normal. If you don't im judging.
This episode has always reminded me of the Xander episode in Buffy the vampire slayer session 3.
If you know what I'm talking about you know
1:37 luke had already experience piloting , there is A.I secondary pilot giving him a hand on r2 d2 (who Use to assist some of the deadliest pilots during the clone war) .. and obi wan (who was one of those pilots) was guiding Luke as a force ghost.
let not pretend that the movie doesn't do the work of making the audience believe Luke couldnt have done what he did.. that would be very disrespectful to the craftment of story telling.
Thats crazy I jus subbed and jus started justice league and u just released this vid
While I watch this episode and love it every now and again, I really wish we got a bit more information about...
You know the cataclysm on the other side of the street
Every time I see an Implicitly Pretentious video about DCAU I think it's time for the "backlash to the backlash." We've had the edgy hero movie stuff, we've had the ironic hero stuff, maybe it's time for the earnest hero media to shine.
DCAU waas/is so good. The Live action never stood a chance.
Imagine if they'd taken the Live action budget. And dropped it in the animation department!
And had them build a high budget animated film world. The beauty we could have seen ;)
Even one persone look at you and called you Hero, it's a victory.
One my fav episodes
Booster Gold only had this one episode, with just cameos in the rest, but this one episode did him really well. He is one of the most memorable, and best jlu characters.
At least in my eyes he is.
JLU is one of the rare cartoons that focus on Adult relationships (some platonic others romantic) and friendships that isn't a irony poised immature "Adult," cartoon.
I am glad that I grew up with this and the original JL cartoon. Because as far as I'm concerned,THIS is how you adapt the DC Universe. The shows even influenced some things in the books. So yeah.
I freaking LOVED JLU
Great , now I have good expectations from the way you worded it for the booster gold movie coming. It won't live up to these words, how dare you.
This is a great video about Green Lantern.
Can you talk about the Shazam episode. I loved how that one went. Especially the ending.
I am too high to be watching something this deep, droned out, brb
This episode is the reason I love booster gold so much.
I hope we get something like the DCAU again. Growing up it seemed something like this would last forever, and now there's almost no more network TV anymore.
If only the writers of superhero films or series were understanding and passionate like you.
Vigilante and Shining Knight having an argument over Dirty Harry is honestly one of my favorite moments in this show
to be fair to Luke, he flew the Icom T-16 skyhopper on the farm, incom is also the same company the designed the Xwing so not too hard of the thign to o for cost reasons have similar controls
Finally a video on Green Lantern
I stay away from video essays, I find them really annoying, so you have chosen a good channel name😂
"greatest story never told" has two episodes in one
Buster's story that nobody heard and only we saw... where he wanted to be the hero but when he finally was one her renounced it.
and that giagantic epic as hell battle that everyone took part in but we only saw small glimpses of.
so wich story is never told here?
...I... I hate to be that guy, but... Luke knew how to fly fighter craft in Star Wars before he hopped into an X-Wing. Whilst the T-16 Skyhopper isn't exactly state of the art anymore, its still a highly maneuverable Airspeeder. Luke might've burned out the instruments and whatnot during a daring race through Begger's Canyon, but he DOES have piloting experience.
It might not have all the bells and whistles of the T-65, but... Its akin to taking a WW2 Fighter Pilot, and sticking them into a Cold War Fighter Jet. It might take them some time to get acclimated, but that can be done within a few days, honestly. The rest comes down to actually flying the thing. And, due to it being the void of space, there's no G-Forces or Air Resistance and whatnot to take care of. Plus, this is Sci-Fantasy. You can't tell me they don't have flight computers that would handle the capabilities of it all?
He also has shooting experience, too. "Bullseyeing womp rats in my T-16 back home on Tattooine". Is it a bit convenient? Yes. But its still explained in-world about how he has all these basic skills. We could also extrapolate and say Han gave him pointers on flying more advanced craft, and his training with Obi-Wan helped him to learn how to pilot an X-Wing. And I'm sure he had at LEAST a few days or a week before the Death Star arrived, so he could also train then. If in no other way than in a simulator. Hell, he's already calling people "sir" and "ma'am", meaning he's gotten used to military protocol to some extent, at that point.
Sure, it could've been better explained, but they had to cram this all into a much smaller package than what can be done today. Cuts had to be made. Star Wars is not a perfect story, but please don't rag on something without doing at least the modicum of research and critical thinking about it. You clearly do that about so many other things, so that makes the shot at Star Wars 1:35 feel extremely cheap and done purely for reactions.
Booster Gold is great and I am really glad he gets his own streaming show under Gunn.
I'm not the biggest Tom King fan ( he's a great writer, but he writes some legends so out of character) King's Booster & Bats miniseries "The Gift" was great & dark 2
