We've seen a gorgeous mosaic and a tiger dominated poster for Life of Pi, but now some other animals get the spotlight on three new posters for the adaptation from Brokeback Mountain director Ang Lee. The idea of the imagery seems like a sold idea, but it looks like the Photoshop wasn't good enough to make it all that pretty. If you were to take out Pi and/or the boat, these posters would look great, but those elements just looked sloppily slapped onto the posters. Hopefully the stunning imagery in the film, including 3D that is said to truly immerse you in the world of the story, will make up for these subpar posters. Check them out?

Here's the three new posters for Ang Lee's Life of Pi from IMP Awards:

Life of Pi is the story of an Indian boy named Pi, a zookeeper's son who finds himself in the company of a hyena, zebra, orangutan, and a Bengal tiger after a shipwreck sets them adrift in the Pacific. Life of Pi, based on Yann Martel's novel, is being directed in 3D by Oscar winning Taiwanese filmmaker Ang Lee, of Taking Woodstock, Lust Caution, Brokeback Mountain, Hulk and Crouching Tiger previously. The cast includes Irrfan Khan, Adil Hussain and Tabu, in addition to the animals and Pi, as it also looks like there's quite a bit going on in this. Fox has Life of Pi scheduled for a wide 3D release November 21st this year. You in?
