"Ice Ages Three" is still just as funny the third time around.

No longer trying to stay realistic as the first two films did, or as realistic as a talking sloth saber tooth tiger and woolly mammoths can be. The story as you might have suspected from the title is about the ice age gang meeting some dinosaur and chaos in ensuing. Ellie and Manny are now expecting their first child, and Manny is obsessed with making life safe for Ellie due to the fact his first family was killed by hunters in the first movie. Diego meanwhile believes that he is getting to soft and losing his predatory nature as a tiger hanging out with the gang. Sid meanwhile grows jealous of Manny and Ellie family and “adopts” three apparently abandoned eggs that he finds in an icy underground cavern. But as you might have guessed they weren’t really abandoned and soon a mother Tyrannosaurus of the eggs Sid stole, returns and carries both Sid and her youth underground. So the gang has to go rescue him and discover that the icy cavern leads to a vast jungle populated by dinosaurs thought to be extinct. (Maybe it’s the same one in Land of the lost) Along the way they encounter a one-eyed, weasel named Buckminster, or Buck for short who has made it his mission to chase down Rudy (a huge albino Baryonyx to avenge the eye his lost to it. He agrees to lead the herd through the jungle’s perils to where Momma has taken Sid. Eddy and Crash think he so cool and Diego admires his tough guy bachelor life style. While Maney just thinks he’s nut and is worried about Ellie getting hurt. Despite it all the film is still funny even the third time around, with plenty of adult jokes too.
I feel tingly
Don’t say that when your pressed up august me.
Not that kind of tingly. Oh and of course there still plenty of humor with that crazy unlucky squirrel who runs by the gang but is to busy obsessing over an acorn and a sexy girl squirrel to interact with them.
