Who dat font?

This logo seen in the new Captain Morgan TV ads is a great example typographic design. I liked it enough to seek out the fonts used. So, I went to MyFonts.com and submitted an image, never thinking it would be able to identify the fonts because they're intertwined so tightly; but, MyFonts amazed once again, with some exceptions.

Life: Bodoni STD-Poster Italic
Love: Could be a combination of a script font, like Acroterion, and Bell MT Italic.
Loot: Tart Heavy (or close)

The bad news: The fonts aren't cheap; so I had to settle cheap knock-offs. Still, MyFonts is an amazing resource for anyone serious about typography and fun for people like me.
