All these marquees are too descriptive. I like a marquee with some mystery.

Well got to have the golden age stuff. Space Invaders...

Technically, Space Invaders didn't have a marquee.  Just a large bezel.

Popeye.  The way the bezel carries over into the marquee has always been a real show-stealer for me.
