The gold reflections don't look good and make it look like there is something wrong with the image file. Putting Mickey into the logo seems a little over the top, like trying to say "Hey, look over here! We're a Disney park too!" I may be a little biased since I don't like the new name, but I really do think that it's pretty ugly on its own.
Originally Posted By MPierce I kind of like it, even if it isn't quite centered well. I've also changed my opinion about the name change. I think WDW is trying to improve the image of the studios. Once they finish all the new attractions rumored for the park I think it will all tie in nicely. I think most people would agree that DHS needs the most help. So why not start with a new name. I also think the fonts, and color say early Hollywood. I also think the placement of mickey has a lot to do with guest getting it confused with Universal Studios. Not that they are stupid, just that they aren't Disney geeks.

Originally Posted By magnet logo's fine by me, but I'll never call the park by the new name. It'll always be MGM, or the studio (and the latter only if I happen to be feeling charitable). I know, it's the bitter, hard side of me - but I'm not happy with the park, and the ToT and rockin' rollercoaster additions did nothing for me. This park needs some DCA level attention, but it seems that Iger and Lasseter are focused on Anaheim right now...and DCA certainly needed it.
