This is to further adhere to the elements of a comedy type animated genre movie, but also so that it meets the needs of its target audience which mainly are kids to teenagers but anyone of any age can pretty much watch and enjoy this movie as a whole. in general the ice age 2 movie is a excellent choice for kids, as this is its main target audience, it adheres to the codes and conventions of the animated/comedy genre type movies.

The Plot:
 The plot of ice age 2 evolves around the typical characters making their entry for a sequel, after the events of the first movie. manny is becoming paranoid and depressed, because he believes strongly that he is the last of his species, this in turn means that he is slowly starting to alienate his closest friends Diego and Sid. while the trio are venturing through the winter tundra, they stumble across some broken bits of ice and some killer huge fish, they are all lucky to leave with their lives, especially Diego, as his inability to swim becomes somewhat of a pun throughout the entire movie.
therefore this plays in with the comedic humour of the film a lot and we see how much of a child-friendly movie this really is.


what we find out about the film:  although the film is essentially for kids and animated it tells us about a slight history I suppose of the ice-age in which the film portrays in a silly manner the mammals and crustaceans which lived during that time period. such as the woolly mammoth, and the sabre-tooth tiger as well as the ground-sloth, this trio makes up the main protagonist of our beloved franchise.
