" Amid the sleepy plotline, infuriating characters, and cheesy CGI, you may have forgotten something else that the prequels ruined about Star Wars: the fonts. FontShop is gearing up for the Friday release of The Force Awakens with a look at the fonts and lettering styles that have defined the look of Star Wars since the 1977 original. It&amp;#039;s a deeper and more fascinating subject than you might think. For instance, Yves Peters spotted the return of\u00A0 ITC Serif Gothic, a typeface used for the &amp;quot;A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...&amp;quot; tagline as well as the credits on the 70s poster. Unfortunately, by the time The Phantom Menace came around in 1999, the now-hated Trajan font (it&amp;#039;s the cliched go-to for all historical dramas) was on the scene, muddying up the posters for the prequels. At least the Star Wars logo is cool and shiny. For more than you ever thought you wanted to know about fonts that are strong with The Force, read on.
