ICE AGE 5 FULL MOVIE PART 1 SERIES

I could watch an endless gag-reel of Scrat pursuing his acorn and getting one-upped by his predestined fate, and not get bored still. There still is a better love story waiting to be told in the 21st Century, and I am waiting. If all else fails, there always is Scrat and his pursuit of his ever elusive acorn. Pixar and Disney have shown that you don’t really need humans to establish a lasting emotional connect with the audience, but the first ‘Ice Age’ film that is in question here worked, not because of the humans in it, but the unique relationship that our main players: Sid, Manny and Diego tended to develop with them, especially the baby Roshan, despite the historical spat. A notable route would be to bring back the humans to the scene with the sixth film, a formula from the first film that clearly seemed to work from the first film.

All has been quiet on the western front since, although a few have spoken up in the favour of there being a sixth film, noting how it could be the very redemption that the series was looking for, given “how the franchise was moving further into absurdity and further away from leaving any lasting emotional impact on the audience”.Īnother look at the outlandish approach that the third, fourth and especially the fifth film took should really put into perspective what is being said here.

However, this was back in 2016 and the Disney Fox deal hadn’t come into play back then. Chu, co-director of ‘Collision Course’ seemed very hopeful on the possibility of a sixth film when the fifth one released, but was skeptical about the box office fate of the film. Ice Age 6 Plot: What Could It Be About?Ĭoming to the actual prospects of a sequel, Galen T. Considering both facets, I think we all know which direction the scales might tip toward. The fate of the sixth film might just be what they decide to call it a day on this franchise. Since the reigns have shifted over, this Fox distributed franchise may find its fate resting in the hands of the mouse house that sure has its own enviable animation line to boast of. The major factor impacting the production of a sixth ‘Ice Age’ film is also the major factor impacting the production of every other film in Hollywood: the acquisition of Fox by Disney. I am not even going to consider that with every subsequent entry in the franchise, the critical score has dwindled too, because it’s the money that really matters here. If there is a ‘for’ argument, there are, contrarily so, tens that are against. A disappointing sum by all means looking at the franchise’s successful history, but the trend still holds. That’s one reason for the studio to keep it going, right there, even if the fifth one, ‘Collision Course’ tanked with roughly $60 Million domestic and $340 Million from other territories. Upto roughly 70-80% of the franchise’s overall cume has been from international markets, especially when the franchise got up to the dizzying highs of the third film, ‘Dawn of the Dinosaurs’ bringing in more than $880 Million in global figures. That trend is the rising disparity in between the domestic and the international collections of the ‘Ice Age’ films with every upcoming release, and it would seem that despite the increasingly declining critical score, it’s the money that the franchise has been collecting from overseas locations it is released in that is keeping the franchise afloat.

There is an extremely interesting trend at the very heart of the Ice Age movies and the collections story they have presented with every successive release, that may very well be the reason for these movies continuing getting made, and also the key to whether a sixth one happens or not. All that said, things may not be looking too good for a sixth one. In a world where even the most lucrative ones, including ‘ Toy Story’ that still has it going with its fourth (and possibly final) film out recently after a gap of eight years, ‘Kung Fu Panda’, that is struggling to get a fourth film made, and ‘Madagascar’, that seems to have called the cards after a trilogy, the ‘Ice Age’ films have managed to get five of these movies made, two of them major box office successes, despite critics and audience both suggesting waning interest in the franchise with every successive instalment. Anyhow, narrowing into the reason why we are here - to talk about the possible next instalment in an animated franchise that quite possibly has the most number of instalments to date: the ‘ Ice Age’ series of films.
