'Ice Age 4' hits Manila

MANILA, Philippines - Ice Age 4: Continental Drift was launched at Glorietta 4 Cinemas in a special screening recently that included photo shoots for parents and their kids and a procession of kid-friendly treats — families lined up for cotton candy, sno-cones, McDonald’s fun packs (including Ice Age toys) and even Koko cereal in bowls. All to launch the third sequel to the popular Ice Age chapter, Continental Drift. This time, Scrat’s nutty pursuit of the cursed acorn has world-changing consequences – a continental cataclysm that triggers the greatest adventure of all for Manny (Ray Romano), Diego (Denis Leary) and Sid (John Leguizamo).  In the wake of these upheavals, Sid reunites with his cantankerous Granny, and the herd encounters a ragtag menagerie of seafaring pirates determined to stop them from returning home. Ice Age 4: Continental Drift is released by Twentieth Century Fox.
