Shiznit.co.uk has released another collection of honest movie posters for the blockbusters of summer 2011. Their revamped titles and descriptions seem accurate for most, but you'll have to wait for Oscar season to see if the predictions for Tree of Life, starring Brad Pitt, rings true. You must applaud The Shiznit for bringing light to certain controversial issues in their edits, notably of the scandals surrounding Mel Gibson, starring in Beaver. Sadly absent from the series of edits is a poster for The Smurfs 3D, opening August 3rd, but I'll leave it to the readers to come up with an honest title for that one.
Check out the rest of the collection on The Shiznit's website!
