“Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs” DVD Review & Giveaway – 2

Ice Age 3

My family and I own all of the “Ice Age” movies and love the characters and the movies!  My favorite character is Sid the Sloth.  He is so funny and clutzy (kind of like me – lol).  I also love Scrat and Manny.  I really enjoyed watching “Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs.”  It took a whole new turn on the “Ice Age” series and I can’t wait to see what will come out next!  It is definitely one you want to see and even own.  I give a thumb’s up to “Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs.”  There is also a 2 pack (I haven’t reviewed), but looks like an awesome deal.  The pack includes “Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs” and “The Scrat Pack.”  I’m sure it’s amazing.

Ice Age Dawn of the Dinosaurs 2 pack

Get ready, for the dawn of a new age!  Manny, Sid, Diego and Ellie are back for more pre-hysterical hijinks when Ice Age: Dawn Of The Dinosaurs stomps onto Three-Disc Blu-ray Disc/DVD Combo Pack October 27 from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment.  The third film in the outrageously popular Ice Age franchise, the sub-zero heroes return another wild and fun adventure.  Scrat is still trying to nab the ever-elusive nut (while maybe finding true love); Manny and Ellie await the birth of their mini-mammoth; Diego the saber-toothed tiger wonders if he’s growing too “soft” hanging with his pals and Sid the sloth gets into trouble when he creates his own makeshift family by hijacking some dinosaur eggs.  On a mission to rescue the hapless Sid, the gang ventures into a mysterious underground world, where they have some close encounters with dinosaurs, battle flora and fauna, run amuck, and meet a relentless, one-eyed dino-hunting weasel named Buck.  The coolest animated comedy of the year, Ice Age:  Dawn Of The Dinosaurs features hilarious performances from Ice Age veterans Ray Romano (“Everybody Loves Raymond”), John Leguizamo (The Happening), Denis Leary (“Rescue Me”), Queen Latifah (The Secret Life of Bees), Seann William Scott (Planet 51) and Josh Peck (“Drake & Josh”), along with newcomers Bill Hader (Forgetting Sarah Marshall), Kristen Wiig (“Saturday Night Live”), Jane Lynch (“Glee”) and Simon Pegg (Shaun of the Dead). 

The Ice Age: Dawn Of The Dinosaurs Three-Disc release includes the BD, DVD and Digital Copy and provides hours of extra fun for the entire family including an Ice Age digital story book maker, commentary by director Carlos Saldanha, deleted scenes, making-of featurettes, two special Scrat shorts, a how-to-draw Scrat tutorial with the filmmakers and much more.  The Three-Disc BD/DVD Combo Pack will be available for a suggested retail price of $39.99 U.S./$49.99 Canada.  Additionally, the Ice Age: Dawn Of The Dinosaurs standard DVD will be available for $29.98 U.S./$43.48 Canada.

The Ice Age: Dawn Of The Dinosaurs “Scrat Pack” Double DVD Pack, a great value for moms and fun for kids, will also be available for a limited time only featuring an overload of special features focusing on the determined squirrel including three “Scrat” games exclusive to the disc.  The “Scrat Pack” will be available for a suggested retail price of $34.98 U.S./$45.98 Canada.  Prebook is September 30.
