Deletion

Why was the future section deleted? Original research? Vandalism? Needs CITATION. Kausill 12:35, 26 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Supposed fourth film

I removed the section that said there was a fourth film on the works, there have only been rumors of this in the net on non-reliable sources like Aintitcool, only when FOX announces a fourth film and it appears on IMDb or Comingsoon.net we should have a fourth film listed. --201.173.220.73 (talk) 21:32, 15 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Extended content

There is a few characters that are coming in for Continental Drift that aren't listed at the table that I believe should be added on. They are stated on the same source as Peahces and Scratte. I'll place the example of the correct template and the code below.

Note: Egbert, Yoko and Shelly are the three young t-rex from Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs, aparently they are appearing back for Ice Age: Continental Drift.

{{editsemiprotected}}

I noticed a few errors in the character template. Jennette McCurdy needs to be added on the Peaches column where the "?" is.


Also, Avril Lavigne is on all three baby dinos, when she only needs to be by Shelly, and Carlos Saldahna needs to be removed from the Shelly column. I'll give a code to make it easier for editors.

Missing 2010 Scrat's Continental Crack-Up

This is missing the short (2 min 40 sec) film from 2010, Scrat's Continental Crack-Up, and the short (2:54) from 2011, Scrat's Continental Crack-Up Part 2. Kid Bugs (talk) 20:33, 17 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Scrat's Continental Crack-Up 1 and 2 are not original shorts, but they are two short segments from the fourth Ice Age film. Even the producer, Blue Sky Studios, does not list them under the "Shorts" section: http://blueskystudios.com/films/ There is a something written about the shorts on the Ice Age: Continental Drift article, in the "Marketing" section. --Carniolus (talk) 07:01, 18 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Rotten Tomatoes "Top Critics" scores

Ice Age is not the first franchise to have five theatrical installments there is few Dragon Ball with 19, Peter Pan with 8, Case Closed with 20, Pokémon with 18, Doraemon with 37 and I can go.

Reception

Shouldn't we talk about the ratings of the Ice Age films? Like: The first Ice Age received a 77% "Certified Fresh" rating on Rotten Tomatoes and 60 reviews on Metacritic. Unfortunately, its follow-ups did not do any good as the original. The Meltdown, Dawn of the Dinosaurs, Continental Drift and Collision Course received 57%, 45%, 37% and 15%, respective "Rotten" ratings on Rotten Tomatoes and 58, 50, 49 and 34 respective reviews on Metacritic. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:6000:CDC7:4C00:85B9:9B09:20A1:EF51 (talk) 08:51, 18 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure when it was added (possibly in response to your concerns) but I think the table is explained and summarized by the preceding prose "has suffered a steadily declining critical reception with each succeeding film." -- 109.79.179.190 (talk) 12:33, 8 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
