Seems like the text is in danger of disappearing? Maybe it’ll look a little better in motion, but I don’t remember the Fox version having the bottom of the lettering in so much shadow from being further back on the "ledges". Nice that they kept the basic approach, though, even if this could have been a chance to go somewhere totally new with the same concept.

I can't say that this is bad news. Disney produces interesting films. When they were buying Fox, they simply expanded their scope. Now not only interesting, but also high-quality films will be released. It is quite difficult to find a good film crew that approaches their work with great responsibility. When I made films, I quite often encountered non-professionals and lazy people. A couple of times I was lucky enough to work with the film production company in morocco. These guys are real professionals in their field. All the films that they helped to make came out in the tops!

I agree with you. I wish someone else could send me his opinion

Yeah, that's weird: They're NOT milking the nuts out of Scrat again? They remembered other characters were in the movie?

[Daniel]

That just sounds wrong.

My confusion is Blue Sky is closed. Was this already made?

Also ack! I meant to post this in the Blue Sky thread!

[Ben]

It was animated, but not finished. That post work was completed in the past few months, likely at either the skeletal bones of what was left of Blue Sky, or at another Disney facility. Sounds like it was mostly sound effects and mixing work was done, so likely Buena Vista Sound.

They obviously didn’t want to go theatrical with it — not even an early Feb "home video" slot — so the drop to D+ in almost the same timeframe is a slight ignominious end to the studio, even if there’s *some* poignancy in ending with a final Ice Age outing.

Let’s continue this one here, shall we…?
