The Hollywood Sign.

Everyone can rest a little easier in the City of Angels thanks to Hugh Hefner and many other donors who contributed to keep the property that houses the iconic Hollywood sign out of developers' hands.

Hefner donated $900,000 and brought the final tally to $12.5 million, enough to protect the 138 acres of land.

"My childhood dreams and fantasies came from the movies, and the images created in Hollywood had a major influence on my life and Playboy," Hef says. California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger adds:

"It's a symbol of dreams and opportunity. The Hollywood sign will welcome dreamers, artists and Austrian bodybuilders for generations to come. I did what the Terminator was supposed to do, and that was to jump into action."

Yeah, I just saw that on E!.

Honestly, I am glad. I can't imagine Hollywood without the sign.

Fletch XXX · 04-26-2010, 02:08 PM

like the city of Hollywood couldnt front that. LLLLAAAAME

City of Hollywood make tons and actually go after people using "HOLLYWOOD" stylized fonts/words,.. they should pay.

They came at me for a URL and logo that had HOLLYWOOD style lettering. I didnt even reply LOL

I think the Terminator was suppose to kill people. Probably wouldn't discriminate between those gazing at the Hollywood sign and those not.

the point was, if you send people trademark infringement letters, and go after people for using lettering like "the hollywood sign" they should be the ones paying the bill. Legalize that pot then if you broke ;)

Lame, Hef is a sucker, fuck that property.

alias · 04-26-2010, 02:19 PM

What a pimp.

LeRoy · 04-26-2010, 02:23 PM

Way to go Hef!

Elli · 04-26-2010, 02:29 PM

One day someone will look out over that view and say "This house is built on the old Hollywood sign. How cool is that?"

But for now, Hef saves the day

BestXXXPorn · 04-26-2010, 02:33 PM

That sign is definitely iconic, glad to hear it was saved

Don't worry about the people outside the city criticizing, they don't drive on our pot-hole roads and transient-litered streets.

With all of the multimillionaire actors, writers, directors, and producers... this never should have even been an issue.

James Cameron, Spielberg. and a few other Hollywood Movie Makers. This should have been an easy fix.

who fucking cares

V_RocKs · 04-26-2010, 03:35 PM

Really surprising that it isn't a landmark with protection already. That land could have been purchased for 1,000,000 in the 60's...
