Ya know, these stupid anti-signage laws are to blame. There ought to be more limits on what government can dictate when it comes to taste, a purely subjective thing. The anti-blinking lights and anti-signage has gone too far.

The ones pictured appear to have been made sometime in the 1980's, but I had to laugh when I saw the marquee at the new Edwards Solono Mall theater in Fairfield (CA)- it has 16 screens but the marquee is so small it can only fit about one word for each movie they have. For sequels I always want to put up something like "ANOTHER F---ING STAR TREK MOVIE" or thereabouts  |  IP: Logged John Wilson Film God Posts: 5438 From: Sydney, Australia.
