Yes, the first Ice Age was released in Spring of 2002, so it will soon be ten years since Scrat first started trying to catch that infernal acorn. The third Ice Age was one of the most successful films of all time overseas. As of this writing, it's seventh-biggest foreign haul of all time, it was third back in 2009. So a sequel was inevitable. For what it's worth, the third picture (Dawn of the Dinosaurs) was pretty entertaining, and even in a second-run 2D screening you could tell that those who paid for 3D got their money's worth. I will always have a certain fondness for said third entry, as it's the first movie I took my daughter to, just shy of her second birthday. To my surprise, she more or less sat in rapt attention, only losing interest during the final reel. Yes, Scrat was her favorite character. Fox drops this one on July 13th, 2012. If Allison wants to go, I will be seeing it accordingly. Thanks to Digital Spy for the 'get'.
