About the Film

Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs is a 2009 American animated comedy produced by Blue Sky Studios, the third installment in the franchise. When Manny worries about becoming a father, Sid adopts three apparently abandoned dinosaur eggs that hatch into T-Rex babies, whose actual mother — a massive, furious Tyrannosaurus — drags Sid into an underground lost world of dinosaurs beneath the ice. The herd must venture into this prehistoric realm to rescue Sid, guided by the unhinged, one-eyed weasel Buck, voiced by Simon Pegg, who has been living alone in the dinosaur world hunting a massive albino Baryonyx named Rudy.

Simon Pegg's Buck was the franchise's most inventive new character — a deliriously entertaining survivalist whose sanity has been lost to years of solitary dinosaur hunting. The underground dinosaur world gave the filmmakers a broader visual canvas than the previous films' ice age settings. Dawn of the Dinosaurs earned $886 million worldwide, the franchise's highest gross and one of the most commercially successful animated films of 2009.
