Kubrick – Futura Extra Bold

Futura Extra Bold
This might come across as Kubrick geekerie, but I remember reading that Stanley Kubrick (a favorite director of mine) loved Futura Extra Bold. Since then I have used it wherever possible: see Reel Reviews. Now comes a new release of some of Kubrick’s best work, and they have changed the font used on some of the cover art. I know this seems minor, but as detail obsessed as Kubrick was (part of the reason he was such an amazing director) it is inexcusable to change things now that he has passed. Warner Brothers needs to get their act together. BTW where is Barry Lyndon?
