About the lettering

The films carry their titles in a faceted, space-opera wordmark drawn for the production. The Vol. 2 poster adds a brush script for the 'Vol. 2' line, which FontMeme names as Linotype's Flood; inside the films, the location captions were identified in the forum as Gotham, with Helvetica as a competing suggestion.
