If this is what evolution looks like, I think I'm becoming a creationist.

I still think the current one looks like old-timey/dingbat bukkake, but at least not as much as #6.

#5 is fantastic.

If this thread is any indication, clearly no poster would please everyone, so I guess we should all just live with the current one. LoL.

I like the 5th one...it jumps.

I walked by the Neil Simon on my way to work this morning and I'm sorry, but...it just looks even uglier in person and on a marquee.

"Like an era?"

Haha, Kad!

I like the sixth image, which I believe is the fifth option (since the first and seventh are the same.)

I like the image of Coalhouse, and staggered font in a woodblock kind of texture is fine, but the overall image reminds me of Terry Gilliam's opening sequence from Monty Python with everything popping out of everything else.

They could do better. My feeling is the earlier iteration of the final design is simpler and better, but neither do anything for me.
