The first Ice Age Movie explored the dynamics that make a frienship work. By the end of that movie, you could call the three misfits a family.
Manny, Sid and Diego are back... and this time Manny's got to deal with the opposite sex. Enter Ellie. The moment she appeared, I had a feeling she doesn't think she's a mammoth. The surprise came when I learned she thought she was a possum! Anyway, while Manny is trying to know Ellie, and convincing her she's a mammoth like him, the background story is that the wall of ice that has protected their valley is cracking (yo Scrat, what've you been up to?) and everyone is trying to get to the "ark" before the water crashes in.
The most hilarious scene comes from Scrat at the end of the movie. He is knocked out cold and finds himself in squirrel heaven. Just when the golden acorn is almost in his grasp, he finds himself back in the mortal world, resuscitated by Sid.
