Relaunched "Film4" debuts 23rd July

I'm dissapointed in the new logo. Maybe they're aiming for a modern-retro look, but I guess it might be okay. Channel 4 have the best presentation so I'm not complaining Besides, like someone else, on first look I hated the More4 logo but now I really like their presentation.

i disagree - i think the more 4 logo and idents are poor, they're just lucky that they have some great programmes. more4 should aim to have a brand as innovative and strong as c4 and e4. ok the content is worthy, sometimes serious - but by no means stale (unlike the idents).

lets hope the film4 idents make the logo come alive.

Come on, have C4 ever let us down when it comes to presentation? I think they purposly leak images like that to the net, wind us up about how awful it looks (More4 in bright green anyone?) and then bring it out with a fabulous ident package.

It's all a big conspiracy theory I tell's ya!

You know what? I've been tinkering with the logo for my website, and I don't think it looks half bad now!! It's quite subtly clever, a sort of art-deco meets fd10, rt90 commands...

Roll on the idents, Film4!

Bozz

Like the rest, i will wait till i see it on air, but its hard moving from a logo, you like to something different, its different if you dont like the logo, then you wont miss the sight of it.

An E4 Music channel has been rumoured in the past couple of months, though it's more likely to replace E4+1 (on Freeview).

3am to 3pm are awkward hours - I think FilmFour currently screen a mixture of promos and teleshopping.

One thing they could do is team up with Top Up TV and use the downtime to play out Film4 movies to be made available via the Top Up TV Anytime service launching in the autumn.

I really don't think there was any reason to change the logo too much, I mean, the Film Four logo is one of the most recognised in British cinema now.

They could have just altered it...

I also hate the logo we've seen. But let's face it, C4 are known for issuing dodgy looking press statements with their new logos, then when we see the thing on screen it's great.

When the new C4 one was unveiled I wasn't happy. Same with More4. But I love both of them now I have seen them used on screen.

I think we all ought to reserve judgement until my birthday!

...so will this be the real Film Four then..?

I'd love to see an E4 Music channel. E4 Music is the best thing about E4, and I usually favour it over the bigger music channels.

Speaking of music television - TMF are re-launching the late great 'MTV Select' as 'TMF Live'. It will air weekdays 4-5 from July 24th and remain "True to the original format".

No, it's a fake one being transmitted from someone's garden shed. What do you think?

I am pleased about FilmFour being FTA and I've seen the spoilers on C4 saying 23/07/06 on a red background. and I don't like the new logo either as it looks like it's been whipped up from Paint.
