It’s an animated film of mammoth-size proportions: Blue Sky’s first film, Ice Age.

Highlights:

• Main Discussion: Ice Age

• History of Blue Sky Studios. It started out as a VFX and commercial studio.

• Interesting to see that a lot of studios start out as a commercial-making studio and then slowly grow to making features.

• Mother Gothel: “Enough with the migrations.”

• Surprising voice talent. What the Jack Black?

• The dodo sequence!

• The big moment that pays off: the cave painting sequence. It helps you really understand Diego… finally.

• Sequelitis: we rant about sequels. “And this is how we end up with Ice Age 5.”

• The random but pivotal moment of the sudden lava.

• Voicemails

• Mail bag
