In the ice cave, Sid turns around a bend, looks right (heaves a sigh of relief), and then looks left to find the scary fish fossil. Then he turns right and immediately sees the dinosaur fossil. There was no dividing wall or corner between the 2 fossils, so the dinosaur should have been visible to Sid even before he saw the fish. See more »

Alternate Versions
An alternate scene of Sid in the hottub with the ladies shows him saying to them "Let's jump in the gene pool and see what happens." One of the female sloths then kicks him in the groin. This was cut because it was not suitable for children and may have gotten the film a PG-13. Other innuendos with Sid were also cut from the film. See more »
I saw the movie with two grown children. Although it was not as clever as Shrek, I thought it was rather good. In a movie theatre surrounded by children who were on spring break, there was not a sound so I know the children all liked it. There parents also seemed engaged. The death and apparent death of characters brought about the appropriate gasps and comments. Hopefully people realize this movie was made for kids. As such, it was successful although I liked it too. Personally I liked the Scrat!!
