Ice Age franchise

🧊 manny, sid, diego, and of course, i had to draw scrat getting his acorn 🥲

those first two movies were quite literally my childhood: i remember seeing the first one with my brother when it came out (and my friends and i pretty much spent most of the summer quoting from it and we even tried our hand at written, collaborative fanfiction: it was between us but still). saw the second one with my cousins the day it came out: i wasn’t feeling well but i wanted to see it to lift my spirits (and boy, it sure did 😅).

and then… well, i’m not too sure what happened after that. i got older and looked for more cartoons to watch and love (started making my own, too), and the series underwent the similar treatment as what happened to shrek: got a bunch of sequels and spinoffs and became just another kids’ show under disney’s omnipresent hand when blue sky shut their doors a couple of years ago.

but like with star wars, the simpsons, family guy, pretty much anything that was on cartoon network prior to the great recession, and south park, i go back to the roots of it all, before money took over. it’s really wild to me how much i loved as a kid that started to go sideways after money started rolling in and it makes you appreciate the short-lived stuff as well as the beginnings of it all, and in a way, it does make me hopeful for the future: artists, writers, and creators from all around can keep their heart in it for the long haul. but i still think about the first and second ones, though: hearing ray be surly, down-on-his-luck mammoth, denis be a total badass, and johnny legs’ wet lisp is forever burned into my memory. 🦣🦥🐅

The fact that the rest of the Ice Age movies did not have Manny wearing the necklace on his tusk, and did not make it a plot point for why he was so protective of his daughter later, still irks me to no end.
