Being an indie author means being in charge of all things, including picking fonts for the book covers. I thought this video illustrates the important fonts in a very amusing way:
I've seen some book covers with fonts and colors that didn't go with the subject matter or clashed with other colors. Like a cartoonish type font for a suspense. Or gummy pink with a greenish grey background.
It's only natural that a movie poster and the beginning of a movie should also get as much emphasis in the font department!

Ack! I can't get the movie to come up. Do you have the URL address; I could just go there and watch it. I'd like to see this one.
My boss just had a new book released and the title is Hour of Lead, but the font is so wonky is looks like "Hous of Lead." He said something to the publisher but couldn't get it changed. Poor guy.
