= ICE AGE 2! =

In this session I've liked the first scene when the squirrel appears trying to take his nut off of the glacier and all the wall starts having leaks. It's a very funny scene, this squirrel is maybe the best thing of all Ice Age's movies! I have also liked when Diego has to jump because the ice is melting under his paws, because he seems very strong and serious but in this scene we can see his weak part. I disliked when the children hang Sid down and use him as a piñata, because the children are very ugly and dumb animals and Sid is dumb too, but I like him, he's funny. Poor Sid! This session made me think about global warming, because the film shows you how the animals feel about this fact. They are thinking up ways to survive, like Fast Tony with his home-made snorkel. Also, there are animals sunbathing because of the extremely hot, and at the end of the session Manny, Sid and Diego watch how the ice melts under them and they discover that Diego's afraid of water. I've liked the way they show the global problem to people, and it's good to children to watch it!

__**SESSION 2: Everything is melting!**__ I've loved this session! I've liked a lot of scenes, like the one where the vulture warns the animals about the melting, he looks like an oracle! Also, it's funny when the vultures are watching the animals moving out and they start providing traffic information as if the animals were cars. During the walking of the animals there are more funny moments, like the dung beetle carrying a crap ball because it's her mother-in-law's gift, and when Sid starts singing about the extinction of mammoths. At the end I've loved the squirrel scene, he's the funniest thing in the full movie!

If I have to choose one scene that I've disliked, I choose when the animals start moving and an ant-eater family's father look up at Manny and tell to his children that Manny's the last mammoth. It's a sad scene, because Manny thinks that he's alone. There's a scene at the end that is sad and funny at the same time: when Manny hears a noise that sounds like a mammoth and he starts running like mad but actually it's a horse fart. (and Sid rides Manny narrating the running like it was a horse race).

This session made me think about animal extinction, because in the movie they show how Manny feels about being the last one of his species, and it's very sad.

__**SESSION 3: Ellie the possum**__ In this session I have liked when Sid and Diego meet the possums and they start fighting: the possums jumping through the holes in the ground and Sid and Diego trying to cover all of them. I've liked when they meet Ellie and she starts talking like she was a possum and Manny is very confused and thinks she's joking, but then he realizes that she's not. Sid, as always, blows it all, inviting Ellie to go with them. Also, I must mention the squirrel again, because he's so dumb I can't stop laughing at him.

I've liked all the scenes, but well, something that I don't like very much is Ellie, because she's a bit annoying when she tries to act like a possum. Although Manny shows that she's a mammoth, she keeps believing that she's a possum.

Supposing that I hadn't seen the movie, I would have said that this session made me think of the people who try to act like his friends/another people to avoid feeling alone or different, because Ellie lives with the possums so she thinks that she's one of them, but actually she's not.

__**SESSION 4: Let's roll!**__ In this session I've liked when Manny helps the possums, pulling the tree and shutting them into the pond, because Crash is the first being shuted and he starts singing "I believe i can fly", but then he's stamped into a tree. When he falls his brother thinks that he's dead, but when they realize that he's not, they start jumping and shouting of happiness like a drama film. Also, I've liked when Manny tries to make compliments to Ellie and he mentions her butt. This scene is really funny!

There's a scene that have scared me. When the sea monsters are following all of them and Diego gets blocked because he's scared of water, and Sid is swimming followed by one of the sea monsters. Finally Sid can arrive, but I was on my nerves! The best is the funny moment when Sid had to bit Diego's tail for unblock him!

This session made me think of people fears. We have to face our fears because we don't have to let them stop us. Sometimes it could be dangerous!

__**FINAL SESSION**__ In this long session, One scene I've liked is when the vultures start singing and performing while they follow Manny's team, because it's a great performance and I love their voices in English! I've liked too when Sid is kidnapped by small sloths, because it's really funny when the litle ones imitate Sid's movements. An adorable scene is when Diego swims to save Sid and the possums, because he faces his biggest fear and it's encouraging. Also, I've loved the final extra scene when the squirrel is in nut's Heaven. It makes me laugh a lot when he is almost touching the gold nut but then all disappears because actually Sid was doing the mouth-to-mouth resuscitation to him.

There's no scenes that I haven't liked, but I've get on my nerves when Ellie gets trapped inside the locked cave while all is melting and Manny can't help her because the sea monsters are attacking him, it's a very distressing moment!

This session make me think of friendship, because at first, Diego doesn't like the possums, but in the end he saves them because he appreciates them. Also, Manny likes Ellie and he tries his best to save her, and he success! Even Sid helps the squirrel in the final scene, and they don't know each other!

I love this film!
