New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
I recently saw the trailer for this film and though the font was Horatio Bold but the uppercase R is off. It's either another font or a custom R that doesn't appear in the MyFonts glyph previews. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Steve

... or Horatio.

Yes, I agree Jan, it definitely appears to be Horatio, but is that a custom u/c R? Horatio's leg is different.

I think it’s a free font similar to (but much worse than) Horatio.

I believe Jan's right, and I think the freeware font in question is SF Atarian System. The italic version is shown in the preview; I downloaded the whole package and found the Rs in the non-italic fonts are similar to those in the original post.

Wow, thanks, Typophile comes through again. I imagine it would be tough for a small company like Universal Pictures to come up with the cash needed to buy that single weight of Horatio.*
Thanks again,
Steve
