🧊 manny, sid, diego, and of course, i had to draw scrat getting his acorn 🥲

those first two movies were quite literally my childhood: i remember seeing the first one with my brother when it came out (and my friends and i pretty much spent most of the summer quoting from it and we even tried our hand at written, collaborative fanfiction: it was between us but still). saw the second one with my cousins the day it came out: i wasn’t feeling well but i wanted to see it to lift my spirits (and boy, it sure did 😅).

and then… well, i’m not too sure what happened after that. i got older and looked for more cartoons to watch and love (started making my own, too), and the series underwent the similar treatment as what happened to shrek: got a bunch of sequels and spinoffs and became just another kids’ show under disney’s omnipresent hand when blue sky shut their doors a couple of years ago.

but like with star wars, the simpsons, family guy, pretty much anything that was on cartoon network prior to the great recession, and south park, i go back to the roots of it all, before money took over. it’s really wild to me how much i loved as a kid that started to go sideways after money started rolling in and it makes you appreciate the short-lived stuff as well as the beginnings of it all, and in a way, it does make me hopeful for the future: artists, writers, and creators from all around can keep their heart in it for the long haul. but i still think about the first and second ones, though: hearing ray be surly, down-on-his-luck mammoth, denis be a total badass, and johnny legs’ wet lisp is forever burned into my memory. 🦣🦥🐅

I'll always love and appreciate the Ice Age sequels for making Scrat's design so much cuter and fluffier with their upgraded animation. X3 ❤️

Crash: What if we're the last creatures left alive? We'll have to repopulate the Earth!

Eddie: How? Everyone's either a dude or our sister!

My boyfriend confused the soundtrack of How to Train Your Dragon for Ice Age 2's soundtrack. I get that both OSTs are made by John Powell but....no...it's not the same melody...it's not...

THEY'RE NOT RIGHT???

I am rewatching Ice Age 2 and like

I love it, I grew up with this movie

But it's so cruel towards Manny.

Like, the first movie showed us his past. We watched the humans killing his partner and their child (and his decision to help the baby anyway)

How would you feel if after such a tragedy everyone says that you're the last of your kind?

Only now I realize how DAI and Ice Age 2 are similar 😂😂😂

ok time to write an Ice-Age-2-inspired romance.

post-apocalyptic world. It's mainly robots populating the world (and wild animals) but the hero is a human. He lost his family long ago but that's his backstory from movie 1.

One day he meets another human. The only (female) human he's met in twenty years. Raised by robots in an experimental center, she doesn't know she's human. He intends to seduce her to repopulate the earth.

She also has two talking oppossums for younger brothers we don't change that.

Their course is set south because of an impending doom of acid rains which will burn everything on their way.

In the end they pass a border out of the US or something and realize the apocalypse only happened in the US and Mexico is still fully populated with humans. Also the acid rains don't go in Mexico because it's a well-known fact acid rains don't go through borders (haha throwback to the french denial politics in the 70 about the acid rains in east-germany and USSR)

They still end up together even if he deceived her.

Can't get over how fucking adorable Scrat is in this scene. ❤️💕❤️

Me estoy viendo ice age

Me estoy viendo las pelis de ice age y no las recordaba tan buenas xD.

Eso si, algunos chistes solo los entienden los adultos porque dios mío.

My roomie n' I are going through and watching entire movie series lately and our latest journey started tonight by watching Ice Age 1 and 2

First of all Ice Age is such a classic, it's like THE quippy family adventure movie. Also it's honestly kind of incredible the difference between 1's visuals and Ice Age: Meltdown

Like in four years we got THAT much better at rendering 3d. It's insane. Also for a run of the mill Main Character Gets a Girlfriend sequel Ice Age 2 just feel like a more polished Ice Age one both visually and writing wise. Had an absolute blast.
