Thanks M for rescuing me!!!

I just absolutely loved Ice Age The Meltdown. The animation is fantastic. The jokes are hysterical. Its one of those movies that both adults and children can enjoy. Completely great. Ray Romano and Queen Latifah have the perfect voices for the Mammoths. John Leguizamo and Denis Leary are great too. I just loved the entire story line with Diego, and then Ellie the Mammoths story of growing up. Everything was so touching, yet really funny. And Scrat keeps showing up, so he makes everything great.

Even Jay Leno is in this movie. I let you guess which character he played. Amazing






This is an amazing story of survival for members of man's best friend. The story begins when the facilities expedition guide (Paul Walker) and his team of sled dogs is recruited by a scientist seeking out proof of a fallen meteorite. When the scientist is severely injured, the team gets him back to the research station, saving his life. A major storm blows in, and that coupled with the human injury, forces the researchers to evacuate quickly, leaving the dogs behind due to lack of space on the plane. The rest of the movie is told in two parts. One being Walker's quest to find a way back to his dogs, even though he knows he may not find them alive. He simply has to know. The dogs are his family and his love and he believes he owes them every effort to save them. The other part of the film follows the dogs across the frozen tundra in their quest to survive. They hunt, play, fend off an attack by a leopard seal, and stick together in a remarkably structured group.

It was an inspiring tale, based on a true story about people who follow their hearts. This just doesn't happen today in our world of cell phones, blackberries, etc. where everyone just seems to be out for themselves. It was also so nice to see a whole different world - Antartica- a place where most people never see. Having been to New Zealand I appreciate the beauty shown in this movie of the landscape. Go and see
