This week's Photoshop Phriday is Good Movies, Crap Posters!. There's five pages worth of clever posters. Here's a few more of my favorites - - Deliverance, Reservoir Dogs, Avatar, The Dark Knight, and Inception as comedies (I wonder how many of these recut trailers already exist):

2. Here's why it's raining in the first level of the dream in Inception:

DEADLINE: How did you explain to them the three levels of dreams?
NOLAN: I told them one of the dream levels is in the rain, one of them is a night interior, one is outdoors in the snow. That meant that even in a close-up, you would be able to tell which level you were in as you cross-cut. They were very aware of the risky nature of the project, but they just got very excited about seeing the film.
