But Buck has another reason to make speedy tracks. And of course, somehow Buck, thanks to another special brain appearance in the form of Pythagorus Buck, is able to devise a countdown clock giving our prehistoric residents a reason to put a spring in their step as they head for the valley. Remove the magnetic field that’s attracting the meteors. With some grand infusions of science talking about magnetism, and with instructional commentary provided inside Buck’s brain by Neil deBuck Weasel, the solution is clear. And Buck knows just what they need to do. Given this isn’t your average meteor shower, and because there have been extinction level events in the past from meteors, there must be something on Earth that is attracting all the meteors.

Smarter than the average mastodon or mammoth (and thanks to some cosmic clues unearthed on series of ancient tablets), Buck quickly realizes what is happening and why. And in the midst of it all, who should appear but another old friend, Buck the one-eyed weasel.

With love in air and the party in full swing, it looks like the night is a huge success that is, until asteroids and meteors too big to burn up start crashing into the Earth forcing everyone to run for their lives, and Manny to be in the doghouse with Ellie. As they burn up entering the Earth’s atmosphere, a spectacular fireworks display unveils in the skies, something for which Manny takes credit as it being a surprise for Ellie. But remember all that banging and crashing Scrat is doing in outer space? Well, all those loose asteroids and meteors flying around start heading towards Earth. While Ellie and Peaches have planned a huge surprise party, Manny has done nothing for his wife. Ellie isn’t too happy either, but knows that you have to use psychology in order to get one’s child to do what the parents want.Īs if Manny’s woes about Peaches’ impending nuptials aren’t enough, he’s got an even bigger problem. And as every dad throughout time can relate to, Manny is less than happy about Peaches getting married – especially to Julian. Also on hand are Granny, Louis, and Crash and Eddie. Meanwhile, down on prehistoric Earth, we catch up with some of our favorite friends and family, woolly mammoth Manny and his wife Ellie, their daughter Peaches who’s now engaged to a hipster mastodon named Julian, that slippery lisping sloth Sid and of course, Diego the saber-toothed tiger and his better half Shira. Now loose out in space, things get even crazier as Scrat and his flying takes on all the bells and whistles of an apoplectic pinball machine, ultimately knocking planets and asteroids and comets around resulting in the solar system as we know it. Needless to say, Scrat’s antics get the acorn stuck in controls, prompting levers to start moving and in turn, the spaceship. And now we learn about the creation of the solar system as Scrat sits in a vast icy wasteland trying to hold on to a lone large acorn when he stumbles into an alien spaceship frozen inside a glacier. Remember the splitting of the continents? Scrat.
That’s right folks! The ICE AGE franchise continues with this fresh and funny fifth installment, ICE AGE: COLLISION COURSE.Īs has become the story standard, everyone’s favorite saber-toothed squirrel Scrat and his mishaps are the catalysts or inspirations for each film. Scrat’s back and as to be expected, he’s up to his old tricks again this time inadvertently creating the solar system and causing more than a few problems for our prehistoric pals on Earth thanks to his never-ending pursuit of that elusive acorn.
