Back to the Future Intro Credits font

edited September 2011 in Back to the Future
Anyone know the typography font for the "Intro chime" text in the beginning of BTTF 2 and 3, and at the beginning of BTTF1 to name the actors? It's probably a custom, and if it is, where can I get it? It's a pretty cool one, I like it.

    I think that's Century Gothic.

    Close...I just did a test of that. Not quite. Quite a few letters are really off.

    EDIT: Century Gothic is a good base though. It looks fairly accurate with some test text and really off with others.

    I tried to do the same basic thing and Century Gothic was as close as I could get for free. Someone did ID on a film font site (that I can't find at present) but unless you want to pay $50-75 bucks, your best shot is Century Gothic.

    By the way, always good ways to identify fonts:
