The new Rent one IS pretty horrible.
However, I don't know that I've seen enough to say that it's the worst.

Yeah, the current Rent one is pathetic. I don't know how else to describe it.
I don't know why they ever ditched the original artwork. It was perfect.

Posted: 1/22/06 at 7:51pmI don't know what is the worst, in my opinion probably the new RENT one, but my favorites are Dirty Rotten Scoundrels and The Color Purple!

Posted: 1/22/06 at 7:52pmHeh, I was going to say the new Rent one as well. If only the producers would realize how ugly it is too.

Posted: 1/22/06 at 7:52pmI don't care for the Sweeney Todd revival logo all that much. It looks good on the Playbill, but not so much on the windowcard or advertisements.

Posted: 1/22/06 at 8:09pmThe new Rent posters make the Footloose advertisements look aesthetically pleasing.

Posted: 1/22/06 at 8:40pmThe Odd Couple poster has the WORST design layout I have ever seen. The little box is totally unneccessary and just repeats information. I own it because I loved the show and wanted a souvenir, but ICK!

I agree with Steel Pier / Absurd Personal Singluar / I don't much care for the Zombie Prom layout.
I actually really like the RENT poster. Its def. trying to appeal to the Myspace generation and I think it works. I actually really want to buy that poster if anyone knows how?
As for ones I like, I really like the I Love You Because poster...its very simple, but it works.
Oh, and I don't like the Color Purple one that much, though it doesn't bother me too much. And I don't like the Sweeny one either, I think this show should have had a much simplier logo considering the simplistic nature of the show.
