| Plot |
Set during the Ice Age, a sabertooth tiger, a sloth, and a wooly mammoth find a lost human infant, and they try to return him to his tribe. |
| Trivia | Chris Wedge, director, is the voice of Scrat, but has no intelligible dialogue; the plan to have Scrat talk was quickly dropped, as he worked better as a silent character for comedic effect. The name ‘Scrat’ is a combination of the words ‘squirrel’ and ‘rat’, as Scrat has characteristics of both species; Wedge has also called him “saber-toothed squirrel.” Scrat’s opening adventure was inserted because, without it, the first real snow and ice sequence wouldn’t take place until about 37 minutes into the film. This was the only role intended for Scrat, but he proved to be such a popular character with test audiences that he was given more scenes, and has appeared in other movies. |
| Goofs | Continuity: When Soto describes his plan for bringing down the mammoth, Zeke and Oscar swap positions between shots. |
