Ice Age is a computer-animated movie series made by 20th Century Fox and Blue Sky Studios. Beginning with the release of Ice Age in 2002, it is the series the now-defunct Blue Sky is best known for.The films follow the adventures of an unusual herd trying their best to survive an era of history that always seems to bring catastrophic events. The main trio consists of an emotionally distant yet caring mammoth named Manny, a clueless sloth named Sid and a sabertooth tiger with a sweet spot named Diego, all the while a squirrel named Scrat just wants to eat an acorn.The series has five main installments: Ice Age (2002) Ice Age: The Meltdown (2006) Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs (2009) Ice Age: Continental Drift (2012) Ice Age: Collision Course (2016)There are also three short films that are on the DVDs: Gone Nutty and No Time for Nuts, both short adventures starring Scrat, and Surviving Sid, obviously centered around Sid. And there's A Mammoth Christmas, a Christmas Special, as well as The Great Egg-Scapade, an Easter Special. It also has a series of tie-in games. There are also two 4-D exhibitions, one based off an extended version of No Time for Nuts and one based off the third film, which have been presented at various zoos and amusement parks.Boom! Studios published Comic Books including: Ice Age: Iced In (2012) Ice Age: Playing Favorites (2012) Ice Age: Where There's Thunder (2012) Ice Age: Past, Presents, and Future! (2012) Ice Age: The Hidden Treasure (2013)Scrat Tales, a series of shorts focusing on Scrat and his son, debuted on Disney+ in 2022; it marked the final Ice Age project produced by Blue Sky Studios. The same year, a spin-off movie titled The Ice Age Adventures of Buck Wild premiered on the platform as well, produced by Bardel Entertainment.Also in 2022, a short was uploaded by the Blue Sky team as their final piece of animation in which Scrat finally gets his acorn. This was made as a goodbye from the company as well as a symbolic Book Ends of sorts since Ice Age was their first major project and hit, the franchise having started with Scrat's antics.

All There in the Manual: Background information provided in the books and other websites confirms that Manny's family died in the Troubled Back Story Flashback in the original and corroborates the belief that his first child was a son. There is also confirmation for the human baby's name, which is Roshan. His parents are called Runar and Nadia. The names of the two aquatic antagonists in the second film: Cretaceous and Maelstrom.

Artistic License – Biology
 Ice Age / int_18aff462
comment
Artistic License – Biology: Scrat the saber-toothed squirrel. Real rodents lack canines, and at no point in history did they ever have. The aardvarks are also shown having their mouth at the base of their snout and an elephant-like trunk, instead of a small mouth at the end of the long pig-like snout. The dinosaurs in Ice Age 3, if compared to a mammoth, are far bigger than they were in real life, with Mama Rex topping 70 feet and Rudy a whopping 120 feet (real T. rex was a much smaller 25 feet and Baryonyx was actually smaller.) Captain Gutt, an ape, ought to have human-like fingernails rather than pointed claws, and 5 fingers & toes instead of 4. The Easter special depicts the glyptodonts as egg layers. Glyptodonts were large mammals related to armadillos, and did not lay eggs. Subverted when a chalicothere, a mammal related to horses, presents his egg and explains he adopted it. Also in the Easter special, Clint says rabbits have button noses, which they don't. Especially odd since his and Squint's character designs have the correct slit-shaped noses of rabbits. The earlier films were extremely good about depicting the mammoths running, no matter how urgent the situation — like modern day elephants, they moved at what was basically a fast walk. The later films just have them straight up gallop.

Artistic License – Geology
 Ice Age / int_1a5bba2b
comment
Artistic License – Geology: A bit downplayed, but the term "ice age" is somewhat loosely used throughout the series. While the movies perpetuate the common misconception that an ice age is a time period where an abundance of ice engulfs most of the Earth, it is actually a period of drastic temperature reduction in the Earth's atmosphere that can last for millennia, and the movies seem to actually take place in the midst of a glacial period that can occur during an ice age.

That Reminds Me of a Song: Happens three times in the film series: The Meltdown: the heroes run from carrion birds singing "Food, Glorious Food." Dawn of the Dinosaurs: the possums begin singing "Christmas Don't Be Late" after swallowing poison gas that makes them sound like chipmunks. Continental Drift: Manny sings "The Candyman Can" from Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory when trying to ignore the illusions that turn out to be piranhas.

Cruel and Unusual Death
 Ice Age / int_1e584efa
comment
Cruel and Unusual Death: In the first film, Soto is Impaled with Extreme Prejudice by icicles, complete with stabbing sounds. In the second film, Cretaceous and Maelstrom are crushed to death by a massive rock. This death is made even worse in the novelization, where it’s revealed that their remains were then eaten by The Lone Gunslinger and the vultures. In the third film, the last few pterosaurs chasing the main characters don’t make the steep turn upwards in front of the lava fall. Captain Gutt in the fourth film is the worst offender of this, he outright gets eaten alive by a siren, with other sirens seemingly coming in to enjoy their feast.

Anachronism Stew: Crosses over with Misplaced Wildlife and Artistic License – Paleontology. The fourth film lampshades it, with Sid outright stating near the start that their fight against dinosaurs from the third film made no sense whatsoever. Also, Pangaea? In the Ice Age?! Or Stonehenge, for that matter. What about the characters celebrating both Christmas and Easter in the Ice Age, despite the fact that they are supposedly living before Christ when neither holidays existed. And Santa Claus was around back then...

Anachronistic Animal
 Ice Age / int_280d7f43
comment
Anachronistic Animal: The franchise features a number of relatively obscure prehistoric mammals and birds that were long extinct by the ice ages. This includes brontotheres, Moeritherium, Platybelodon, Chalicotherium, Gastornis, and Hesperornis. The movies also feature Mesozoic reptiles, but their presence is acknowledged as anachronistic: there are sea reptiles that were frozen for millions of years, and dinosaurs that live in an underground Lost World. The Series Mascot Scrat was a fictional species at the time the movies were released, but an uncannily similar species, Cronopio, was discovered since then — which lived in the Cretaceous period, over 90 million years before the ice ages; interestingly enough, another saber-toothed squirrel appears and becomes Scrat's love interest in the third film—the same one with the other dinosaurs—and is "appropriately" placed in the subterranean Lost World with the dinosaurs.

Oblivious to Love: Manny doesn't seem to be aware of his growing feelings for Ellie in the second film. Turns out he's quite aware — and still grieving the loss of his first family. In the 4th film, Sid and Manny gang up on Diego after his first run-in with Shira; though the two are clearly laughing it up as much as they can, while Diego stubbornly denies it...although he probably realizes his attraction, at the very least at a subconscious level, if the "siren"'s taking the shape of Shira to lure him in is any indication. It works wonderfully well, until Manny wakes up from his own illusion.

Dumb Dinos: In general, the various dinosaurs and other Mesozoic animals come across as less intelligent than the mammals, and almost never talk — Cretaceous and Maelstrom in the second movie are more brutish forces of nature than characters, while Rudy the Baryonyx and the mother T. rex in the third are portrayed as a fair bit smarter than most — the T. rex eventually befriends the main characters while Rudy is smart enough to hold a mutual grudge with Buck. Gavin and his flock of dromaeosaurs in Collision Course are the only dinosaurs seen who are fully capable of speech.

Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Manny, and it's particularly evident after Character Development set in. As insensitive and thoughtless Sid can be, he does still care about the herd, and in a way is the one that keeps them together. Diego after his Heel–Face Turn. Originally hostile and sinister but he softens as he travels with Manny and Sid to return the baby to his human tribe.

Butt-Monkey: Considering every movie in the series are slapstick comedies, almost everyone gets their turn at being the Butt-Monkey. The majority of Sid's problems are self-imposed, either through not being properly careful, or through having delusions of grandeur. Not even his family wanted him. But the award goes to Scrat. Nothing ever goes the poor guy's way. He exists only for the purpose of being a butt-monkey — er, squirrel. Thing. Butt-Saber-Toothed-Squirrel. Louis isn't given a lot of respect by the Herd.

Book Ends: The first movie opens with Scrat somehow causing an ever-growing crack with the acorn. It ends with one too. And so does the third movie. A meta example for Blue Sky as a whole. The first movie opens with Scrat somehow causing an ever-growing crack with the acorn. In a 30-second short that was posted online shortly after Scrat Tales came out, Scrat is about to do this all over again, before stopping himself and eating the acorn instead, ending on a lingering shot of the now eaten acorn.

Artistic License – History: Despite being set in the literal Ice Age, the characters speak Modern English and make references to aspects of modern society, even though they're not only animals before English was even a language, but there isn't even a human society around to create the conventions it repeatedly makes reference to. Justified because it does it for the Rule of Funny.

Homoerotic Subtext: We certainly get some moments with three male animals taking care of one baby. The two Held Gaze moments between Manny and Diego. When Diego meets Manny and Sid for the first time, he comments, "I see. Can't have one of your own, so you want to adopt". In the third film when Diego and Manny are pressed up against each other, Diego says, "I feel all tingly!" Manny says, "Don't say that when you're pressed up against me!" "Not that kind of tingly!" In the 4th Sid and Diego ''kiss''. Sirens Made Them Do It.

Tertiary Sexual Characteristics: Scratte appears to be wearing blue eye shadow, but makeup won't exist for millions of years, so it's probably natural coloring.

Vile Villain, Saccharine Show: Almost all of the villains can apply. Things are usually fairly nice seeming and happy until one of the baddies shows up: Almost all the jokes stop during the duel with Soto in the first film. In the second film the opossum brothers' cavorting on ice is abruptly interrupted by Maelstrom exploding through it, cracking open the river's surface and instigating a tense and frightening chase scene that ends with Manny, Cretaceous and Maelstrom sharing Death Glares with dark and foreboding music playing, with not a single humorous moment in the scene. The final battle with Rudy in the third film has only a single quick funny moment with Sid tying the vines. Hell, Rudy is so scary he comes off more like an Eldritch Abomination rather than just a dinosaur like all the others, with every scene he's in being ominous and scary. And in Continental Drift, while his crew has their quirks and funny times, Gutt himself is a very cruel and vicious ape. And he holds a grudge against Manny; a grudge so powerful, that Gutt eventually resorts to trying to kill Manny's family just to get back at him.

Decoy Convoy: Sid is seen making a run for Glacier Pass while carrying a bundle. The bundle surely must be the human infant that the Big Bad Soto wants so badly, so two of Soto's mooks pursue Sid. Sid escapes, and the nasty cats discover the bundle contains a only snow figure.

comment
Denser and Wackier: The first film was rather serious (a nomad human tribe being attacked by saber-toothed cats, a dying woman leaving a human baby in the care of prehistoric animals, a lot of implied death) with its comedic moments. The next ones? Not as much. And the plots of the later entries become more fantastical and unworldly; for starters, the third film has the Herd encountering live dinosaurs. The fifth movie tops it by introducing magic and aliens.

Wasn't That Fun?: In the first movie, after the animals all go hurtling through an Ice Helter Skelter and slam into a wall, Diego punches the air and asks who wants to go do it again. In the third, when the herd is leaving the underground world, Buck states that they should have that adventure full of mortal peril again. Citing the whole situation as fun.

Soto, the main antagonist of the first film, was the vicious and bloodthirsty leader of a pack of sabretooth cats who sought to kill an infant human in Revenge for said infant's tribe killing half of Soto's pack to use their pelts to keep them warm. Some people might see his hate as understandable, but he makes it clear that he sees the deaths of his pack as more of a blow to his ego than having any genuine care for them.

Contrasting Sequel Antagonist
 Ice Age / int_a3515d6
comment
Contrasting Sequel Antagonist: Throughout the franchise, the Big Bad of each film differs from the last. Soto, the main antagonist of the first film, was the vicious and bloodthirsty leader of a pack of sabretooth cats who sought to kill an infant human in Revenge for said infant's tribe killing half of Soto's pack to use their pelts to keep them warm. Some people might see his hate as understandable, but he makes it clear that he sees the deaths of his pack as more of a blow to his ego than having any genuine care for them. Cretaceous and Maelstrom were a pair of mindless aquatic predators from the age of the dinosaurs who, while no less terrifying than Soto, were basically Plot Irrelevant Villains who had no personal vendetta against the heroes and only saw them as another potential meal. Rudy was a colossal albino Baryonyx who, while also a prehistoric reptile like Cretaceous and Maelstrom that had no personal vendetta against the herd, was a land-based predator seemingly possessing some level of sapience, as evidenced by his grudge against Buck for knocking out one of his teeth to use as a knife and grinning menacingly when he though he had crushed the weasel to death. Furthermore, Rudy is the only villain in the franchise who works independently, as opposed to the leaders Soto, Gutt, and Gavin were and the partners Cretaceous and Maelstrom were. Captain Gutt was the first antagonist since Soto to be both an Ice Age-era mammal and the leader of a group of villainous animals, but unlike Soto, who at least has the benefit of a Freudian Excuse due to his desire to avenge his slain packmates, Gutt is shown from the start to be a selfish, greedy, power-hungry animal who values no life besides his own and who only sees his subordinates as a means to an end, openly berating Shira for not bringing down Manny when she had the chance and being an overall Bad Boss to his crew. Gavin is a blend of all the qualities of the previous villains in the franchise. He is a ruthless reptilian predator like Cretaceous, Maelstrom, and Rudy but is notable for being the only reptile in the franchise (barring his children) capable of speech while the last three only communicated in growls, roars, or hisses. Like Soto and Gutt, he is the leader of a group that causes trouble for other animals and comes into conflict with the herd as a result. But unlike the previous antagonists, Gavin is convinced into pulling a Heel–Face Turn out of love for his children and becomes friends with the herd at the end of the film.

Chekhov's Skill
 Ice Age / int_acecb17d
comment
Chekhov's Skill: The possum’s tails are used to stop predators in Dawn of the Dinosaurs. Crash’s tail slingshots berries while Eddie’s tail holds the rest as he fires. With just their tails, they leave half of the pterosaur flock knocked to the ground and one pterosaur stuck as a big bloated balloon floating around. Ellie being the only tree-climbing mammoth thanks to her possum upbringing,helps her to save one of the Sid’s adopted dino eggs in Dawn of the Dinosaurs. Diego's forcing a panicked Manny to flee towards the giant raft in Meltdown qualifies, as the other saber-tooths' plan to ambush the mammoth in the first film involved driving him to his death. Presumably Diego knows how to do that too. In the original 2002 movie, Sid's proficiency at wintertime athletics allows him to distract Soto's pack. Peaches' tree-swinging abilities and Louis's tunneling in the 4th movie help save Peaches from Gutt.

Too Dumb to Live: The dodos. When the protagonists first encounter them, they're at regiment strength. After one rhubarb with the pathetic sloth Sid, they manage to topple off a precipice. Every last one. Often (and hilariously) subverted by both Scrat and Sid, often just barely. One particular example involving Scrat is when he tries to bury his acorn at the top of a hollow tree...during a thunderstorm! Predictably, he gets zapped by lightning, leaving him smoked and covered in ashes.

Anthropomorphic Shift
 Ice Age / int_be2a5b42
comment
Anthropomorphic Shift: From the second film onwards. The first film depicts the animals living their animalistic lifestyle, with pretty much the only major human ability to be talking. The succeeding films slowly shift the animals' anthropmorphism to Partially Civilized Animal, capable of human-like ways of life. Though the main villains of the second and third films were actually more animalistic than the cast.

 Ice Age / int_c1944f9

Getting Eaten Is Harmless: In Ice Age 3, one of the baby dinosaurs swallows several animals at the playground, only to reluctantly regurgitate them later. Also in the third is when Buck gets half swallowed by Rudy. In Ice Age 4, Precious swallows Sid and Granny to take them to their destination. In Ice Age 5, a raptor briefly swallows Granny, only to violently regurgitate her when she begins attempting to leave out the back entrance.

Shout-Out
 Ice Age / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: Ice Age: The alien ship seen in the cave is a reference to Star Trek. The baby even does the Vulcan salute as they pass by it. During the ice slide scene, Sid says, "Captain, iceberg ahead!" — an obvious take on the Titanic. Towards the beginning, a group of Moeritherium are stuck in a mud hole, referencing the Rite of Spring segment from Fantasia. The Meltdown: The vultures sing "Food, Glorious Food" when pursuing Manny, Sid and Diego. Crash sings "I Believe I Can Fly" when Manny launches him out of a tree. Scrat's "death" is reminiscent of King Kong. No Time for Nuts: The corpse of the time machine owner resembles Doc Brown. Dawn of the Dinosaurs: Rudy is analogous to the title character of Moby-Dick, while Captain Ahab is represented by Buck. When Crash and Eddie inhale the gas, they try to sing like the Chipmunks ... or at least a Chipmunk song. Ellie slides down a dinosaur's back like Fred Flintstone, while yelling his catchphrase "Yabba-dabba-doo!". The quote is also played with seconds later by Manny. After defeating a pterosaur that tried to scare him and his brother, Crash personally farewells the distressed pterosaur with a phrase parodied from Terminator 2: Judgment Day: When Buck mentions that he calls the dinosaur he fought Rudy, Manny wonders why he didn't call him something more terrible, like Tim. Buck's analysis of the "crime scene" always ending with "leaving... a vegetable!" This scene is also quite similar to the scene in Shaun of the Dead when Simon Pegg's (who voiced Buck) character is trying to make a plan upon realizing there's a zombie outbreak, with each proposition ending with "and wait for all of this to blow over". Could also double as Actor Allusion. This line from Buck: Continental Drift: The leader of the hyrax army paints half his face blue, a clear reference to William Wallace in Braveheart. The army as a whole, with their Zerg Rush against the pirates and Sid's communication with them by dance, channels the Ewoks in Return of the Jedi.

Freudian Excuse
 Ice Age / int_c868a42a
comment
Captain Gutt was the first antagonist since Soto to be both an Ice Age-era mammal and the leader of a group of villainous animals, but unlike Soto, who at least has the benefit of a Freudian Excuse due to his desire to avenge his slain packmates, Gutt is shown from the start to be a selfish, greedy, power-hungry animal who values no life besides his own and who only sees his subordinates as a means to an end, openly berating Shira for not bringing down Manny when she had the chance and being an overall Bad Boss to his crew.

Rudy was a colossal albino Baryonyx who, while also a prehistoric reptile like Cretaceous and Maelstrom that had no personal vendetta against the herd, was a land-based predator seemingly possessing some level of sapience, as evidenced by his grudge against Buck for knocking out one of his teeth to use as a knife and grinning menacingly when he though he had crushed the weasel to death. Furthermore, Rudy is the only villain in the franchise who works independently, as opposed to the leaders Soto, Gutt, and Gavin were and the partners Cretaceous and Maelstrom were.

Sour Supporter: In the first film, Manny is snappy, extremely hard to please, and the opposite of optimistic. He also gets his fun from others' (namely Sid's) suffering, whenever he doesn't get angry at his idiotic antics. Despite that, Manny is as determined as the others to return the baby to his family and, among the three, is the most competent one. He mellows a great deal in the next three films — with the notable exception of the fourth when his overprotective tendencies cause him to relapse.

Art Evolution: Played With as it both evolves and devolves as the series progresses. While the overall animation does improve with each sequel, due mostly to advances in CGI animation technology as well as being made on bigger budgets, the character designs (mostly for the minor characters) becomes increasingly simplistic; for example, take a look at how more accurate the glyptodons look in the first movie, compared to how silly and cartoony they look afterwards.

A meta example for Blue Sky as a whole. The first movie opens with Scrat somehow causing an ever-growing crack with the acorn. In a 30-second short that was posted online shortly after Scrat Tales came out, Scrat is about to do this all over again, before stopping himself and eating the acorn instead, ending on a lingering shot of the now eaten acorn.

In the second film, Diego asks Manny what's holding him back from moving on with Ellie, Manny's response? "My Family".

Conspicuous in the Crowd: Manny not only stands out because he's a woolly mammoth, towering over the other creatures, but he's also trundling against the flow of migrating creatures. One of them even gets snippy with Manny for "going the wrong way."

Brick Joke: In the second movie, Scrat's vision of Fluffy Cloud Heaven includes rows of dodos welcoming him — could they be the same ones that essentially extincted themselves in the first movie?

Innocently Insensitive: Sid can come off like this sometimes, most notably in the third movie where he doesn't even give his friends one word of thanks for embarking on that perilous journey to save him, and instead complains about how hard watching his kids were — for one day! It's more about immaturity than simply being a jerk.

Shown Their Work: While they may not be anatomically or historically accurate, the obscurity of the animals in the series is outstanding. Some of which don't even appear in documentaries that much. Dinosaurs and marine reptiles are clearly depicted as warm-blooded, roaming about in snowy environments and cold temperatures. Feathered dinosaurs would also show up in the franchise. This is one of the few series to remember stegosaurs can stand on their hind legs, as displayed by the Kentrosaurus in the third film. Gutt the Gigantopithecus is designed after an orangutan, which is the closest relative of Gigantopithecus. Raz the Procoptodon has a single hoof-like toe on each foot which the genus is known for.
