OOOH, good idea, that just sounds like it has to be good!

Quote from: DCurry on October 15, 2010, 12:36:13 PMI gots no problem with Helvetica. Used properly it can be beautiful.
He's right. But I am a Neue fanatic. Sh*t, the more members in a font family, the better IMO.

There's a whole documentary about Helvetica. It's pretty good and even worth a few laughs. How many fonts get their own movie?!

Where'd you find it? I had in on my Blockbuster queue a few years ago, but it always said, "coming soon," and I never got it.

I would rather see a movie about Papyrus or Comic Sans. Helvetica is boring.

A movie about comic sans would have more bleeps than Goodfella's on broadcast TV.
