Back to 2012 Movie Preview: Family Movies
'Ice Age: Continental Drift'
Release Date: July 13
Plot is almost inconsequential to the 'Ice Age' series; all you need to do is show your kids a picture of Scrat the Squirrel and you're committing to buying an opening weekend ticket (don't worry, you're not alone; the 'Ice Age' franchise has earned over a billion dollars at the global box office). Time marches forward and Manny, Sid and Diego are separated from their herd after the continental land mass cracks apart. They set sail on a make-shift iceberg ship and encounter adventure on their sea-bound voyage home. We don't think anything too dangerous will happen to the trio, but the movie's pressing concern is: will Scrat finally get ahold of his nut?
