Now you can download free fonts that are the same as those used in your favorite TV shows, movies, and brand names! Write your name, or type long letters, in the manner of a Tim Burton movie, a Kool-Ade pack, a box of Oreos, Lord of the Rings, or The Godfather. HuffPo lists 26 different fonts and their sources, so even if you don’t like any of the examples you see here, you’ll find something that will tickle your fancy. -via mental_floss
The Simpsons,
Mythbusters,
IBM,
Porsche,
MAD Magazine,
Dummies (the books)

What? Coke but no Pepsi?
Gilligan's Island but no Brady Bunch?
Snickers but no Kitt Katt?
Star Wars but no Star Trek? (that's original series, but there are fonts for most of the other series and movie logos, as well as for the Enterprise decals).
And Panera Bread but no Pizza Hut or Taco Bell or Kentucky Fried Chicken or Burger King?
What I find most notable about the "Yellow Submarine" font is how many places besides the Beatles' movie it has been used. In fact, there's another version that, noting its ubiquity for sci-fi titling, named it Asimov. (That's the version in my ridiculously large font collection.)
Yeah, fonts... Don't get me started on fonts... oh, you did.
