It's too early to tell whether moviegoers will think the latest 3D animated film is as cool as the other films in this new genre of feature animations, hut Ice Age could he the quirkiest. The prehistoric animated stars of this film are a moody woolly mammoth, a smooth-talking sloth, a sinister saber-toothed tiger, and an acorn-obsessed saber-toothed squirrel. Released in mid-March, the 20th Century Fox presentation of the Blue Sky Studios film features Ray Romano as the voice of Manny the mammoth, John Leguizamo as Sid the Sloth, and Denis Leafy as Diego the Saber-toothed Tiger. (Scrat, the squirrel, doesn't talk.)
