Although continuing the funny and brisk tone of the Ice Age, I think this is a movie about salvation, as I said to Young before, "The depth of the story has nothing to do with the person who tells the story, but by listening to the story. People decide." When I watch movies, I like to analyze the characters' hearts, so I can always see more redemption.
Mammoth Manny found a companion, got redemption from the desperate situation facing extinction, and finally showed his feelings more bravely, allowing himself to be redeemed for the mistakes that put Ellie into a crisis because of his stubbornness.
The saber-tooth tiger Digo was afraid of water by nature, but at a critical juncture, he jumped into the flood to save the lives of his companions, and quickly learned to swim with a tenacious mind. He didn’t know until he got ashore that the "most animals" that have been supporting his beliefs "I was born to swim" This sentence does not include tigers. In order to overcome his inner fears for friendship, Diego obtained the redemption of no longer fearing water.
Sloth Sid was in a low status in peacetime and was even bullied by children, but still undauntedly wanted to start a summer camp, wanted to do something to make his existence meaningful, and his flexibility brought Manny and Ai together. Li, he encouraged Diego not to be afraid of the water, which allowed him to prove the importance of his existence and was redeemed.
The female mammoth, Ai Li, has lived with two possums since she was a child, and she firmly believes that she is an possum, and finally remembered that she was alone in the ice and snow when she was young, and she met her mother and child and lived with them. Circumstances, she finally realized that she did not doubt the identity of the opossum, but because once she questioned her identity, it meant that she was helpless in this world, so she had always played the role of the opossum. And now, she saw Man Finally, Ni and his party were no longer alone. Allie finally dared to face her mammoth identity, and she was also redeemed.
As for the two mischievous possums, I can’t help but think of the two mischievous brothers in Harry Potter. These two possums really don’t need salvation, even if they actually should be comforted for their companions in their hearts, but believe For the word salvation, they disdain to be connected with it.
However, no matter how I analyze the other characters, the true, forever, and irreplaceable absolute protagonist of the Ice Age is the squirrel who appeared in the entire movie for about 5 minutes. This "mascot" who has the saddest destiny in film history has infinite resentment for pine nuts. Even when he is dying, he enters the "pine nut heaven". The pine nuts in the mountains are the real salvation. Of course, when it was so happy, its sad fate came again, and it was dragged out of heaven by Sid's artificial respiration and returned to the world of endless resentment. . .
Ice Age 2, not only the melting glaciers, but also the inner walls and fears.
