Re: [SW7] Marketing discussion
I was thinking the same. They look more like parts of the blipverts / full advert to me.
That said, they could re-use them in queueline videos.

I quite like the name 'The Smiler'. It has that kind of creepy vibe to it. It sounds nice but when you delve into it you discover quite the opposite.
Whatever name they choose though, there will always be some who hate the name. There's no way on earth that Alton Towers could create a name that would please everyone, that would be way too easy.
The Smiler fits in with the concept of MOJ/The Sanctuary/SW7, it's easy to market and most importantly it's a simple name that will be remembered easily by the public.

I'm pretty much certain that The Smiler is the name of the logo, it makes sense for them to trademark it since it is being so widely used. I've even got used to calling the logo The Smiler now, I just find it easier to call it that

Re: [SW7] Marketing discussion
yup i agree that "the smiler" is just a reference that people call the ride since no official name has been confirmed
