Fields Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Some Olympic logos: Athens 2004 Turin 2006 Beijing 2008 Vancouver 2010 ...and then this pile of shite What on earth were they thinking. It looks like something out of the 1980s. You have to laugh at all this 'modern' and 'dynamic' PR bullshit though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro_Link Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 the logo to me looks very futuristic,You gotta be joking! Something like this must cause you to implode! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supergrunch Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 That's horrible. I think the first "2" (for want of a better word) is supposed to represent England as well, as "London" is written in roughly the right place. This doesn't redeem the horrible thing though. (in fact, it may well make it worse) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gaggle64 Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Can't say I'm a fan either. Apparently the logo will "evolve in the run up to the games." Lets hope it's a different animal altogether by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I suspect they mean it will just change colour a few times. You know, to reflect its 'dynamism.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCK Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 What were they thinking? The old logo was really nice. Would've been much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluejay Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Well i like it. It's different. Look at the reaction with 'Wii'. It seemed a complete mess at first but my gosh calling the Revolution the Wii was a huge success and this will be the same, the logo to me looks very futuristic, totally different and doesn't feature the cliche stickman, hugging a world with loads of flags etc...or something like that. It's got everyone talking and everyone has a opinion on it, so it's done something right. The name Wii was awful then, everyone still hates it now. This logo is dire now, it will be dire later too. The radio said someone thought it was Lisa Simpsons doing something unspeakable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twozzok Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 As stolen from IRC [18:04:51] <Kigan> this logo looks like a dude getting head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coolness Bears Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 That logo is awful, how did that ever come to be created? Everything about it is terrible, the colours hurt my eyes. If they keep it i'm leaving the country. *packs his bags* They have five years to sort this mess out. Get to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shorty Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Link or it didn't happen.Apparently the original was removed... hence why there's a screencap instead of a link. I never saw it myself though so I can't vouch for whether or not it was ever there.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jordan Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 If you read the BBC 606 site they say an image was pulled. My guess is, it was that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
