Ice Age has proved one of the most successful animated franchises around, with the third film in the series grossing over $700 million. This July Ice Age: Continental Drift arrives, which continues the saga’s continual move away from scientific accuracy. Here’s the synopsis: ‘Scrat’s nutty pursuit of the cursed acorn, which he’s been after since the dawn of time, has world-changing consequences – a continental cataclysm that triggers the greatest adventure of all for Manny, Diego and Sid. In the wake of these earth-shattering upheavals, Sid reunites with his long lost family, and the gang encounters a ragtag menagerie of colorful new characters determined to stop them from returning home.’ The film arrives in UK cinemas on July 6th.
Ice Age: Continental Drift Teaser – Scrat’s Continental Crack Up 2
Although I personally find Scrat from Ice Age one of the most annoying things in the world, I know a lot of people like him. Now a second Scrat short, made as a teaser for next year’s Ice Age: Continental Drift has shown up online. In the new Ice Age movie, Scrat’s nutty pursuit of the cursed acorn, which he’s been after since the dawn of time, has world-changing consequences – a continental cataclysm that triggers the greatest adventure of all for Manny, Diego and Sid. In the wake of these upheavals, Sid reunites with his cantankerous Granny, and the herd encounters a ragtag menagerie of seafaring pirates determined to stop them from returning home.
