I remember watching something about the travelling Cinemas like this is India and actually saw a painted poster for "The Hot Chick" in Sri lanka. Thing is, the films are always about 5 years out of date by the time they get over haha....and they always seem to be pretty shit ones lol.

A friend of mine found a book of Ghana poster art at Comic Con this year, some pretty amazing stuff. I remember there being some movies that they completely changed the tone (like advertising a romantic comedy with images of guys firing machine guns)
