Ice Age Interviews

Just a few short story chapters with the Ice Age cast being interviewed, and what it was like filming. Hope you enjoy! Reviews Please! I DO NOT OWN ICE AGE.

Coming up next, we've got-Sid the sloth! So Sid, how you been?

"Pretty, good, actually, I've just discovered the buffet table!"

Ha, ha! So, are you nervous tonight about the big premire?

"Er, a little bit. I get very nervous with things like this, the stuff you don't think about when your in front of the camera, something I'm not used to, because I mostly do stand-up comedy, I might slip a little joke in later. You kind of just do what you want, you can act as goofy, or silly as you want, and it's fun-until you realise every child across the country will be watching you on their Home TV, and will be buying the DVD in stores natoinwide! Personally, I'm a little nervous about exactly HOW I did something. I hate making a fool of myself in public-which is pretty ironic, because, that's ALL my character does!"

Heh, heh! So, Sid, tell me about your character, who is Sid the sloth?

"A very lazy idiot that can't step one foot in front of him without causing trouble-Nah! I'm kidding! I love him really! He's very fun to play! He really is just the loveable loser of the group, and he's gets tons of fanmail, too."

And, uh, what was it like to do the actual filming?

"Well, I get the call to do this movie "Ice Age," and I ask "What's it's about?" and they tell me, and I'm like, "Ohh, okay," so I come down to the set, and then, that's when I see a mammoth for the first time!"

And did he warm to you?

"Er, well, yeah, I suppose so. We were both pretty nervous, so we kind of felt sorry for one another. This was also MY big acting break, as well as his."

What about Diego? Do you think you get on better then you do in the films?

"Oh yeah, definetly, me and Diego have become really close friends. Although, what's really weird, is that I've noticed in the films, is that Diego is always shown playfully harassing me, and taunting me. He's a sabre-tooth tiger, and I'm a ground-sloth, so in real life, because I'm bigger then him, I could actually kill him if I wanted to. Not that I would, ever though, Diego, if you're watching this, I'd never dream of it! I also eat meat, because we ground-sloths are omnivores, but because Sid's meant to have this pleasant personality and attitude, he's always shown eating a diet of fruit and veg."

Interesting. You know quite a lot don't you?

"Heh, heh, well, I was a teacher. Went cross-eyed though, couldn't control my pupils! Sorry for the bad joke, that was really lame, and not one of my best material, didn't tell that sort of stuff on stage!"

Bwaahhaaaa! Anyway, *wipes tear* Manny was in here previously, and he said that you had an anwser to just about everything. Is that true?

"Uhh, it could be, either that or Manny's just trying to embarrass me!"

Are you good at Maths?

"Eh, I'm okay! Not too bad!"

Well, let's see here, I've got my calculator, so how about I give you a maths question, and then you tell me the answer.

"Okay-dokey!"

Right, let's see-ooh! I know, Sid, what is the square root of pi?

"Ooh. Um. Okay, that's a tough one. Let me think...is it... 1.77245385091?"

Hah! Oh, my, goodness! Yes, that's it, look at that! *shows to audience* this guys a whizz!

"I try!"

Wow! So, Sid. Your character is always worried about not finding a girl and having a family. Do you have anyone special back home?

"Um, no actually."

Still single?!

"Still, single!"

You hear that ladies? This guys still single! Better grab your chance now! Well, Sid. Granny, is she really your grandmother in real life?

"*laughs* Yes. She isn't 80 though, like she is in the films, as in sloth years, that would probably be 100 and something. No, uh, she instructed me not to tell you her REAL age, or she would hit me over the head with her cane. And I'm afraid that sometimes, just sometimes, she can be as stubborn as she is in the fourth movie!"

And, what about the fourth movie? She tags along on one ofyour adventures doesn't she?

"That, she does, which doesn't make it easy for poor Sid, as he has to tend to her every need along the way. Although, I do still like to tease her about the famous hunky sloth male model she saw in siren cove."

And who did you see?

"A very famous sloth-actress, who's in just about everything. We kind of called them in to do that pop-culture, gag, if you like, so we called them to appear as guest stars."

You think you would get a chance with her?

"Uh-uh! Sadly, no, she's actually married to the sloth male model!"

So, if Ice Age was shut down then, what would you say and do?

"NO, NO, NO, NO, NOOOO! This cannot be happening! This is my LIIIFEE!" Ahem! That is it would be, I were as dramatic as my character. I think I'd actually just leave if we got taken off the box office!"

And I heard that you "eavsdropped," on the directors, and that there might be a fifth Ice Age coming up. What do you say to that?

" Crack open the champagne!"

Hah! hah! hah! Well, thank you very much, Sid we look forward to your next appearence on the big screen! Coming up, Diego reveals his worst fear, and Ellie talks about her acting life. Stay tuned for more!

With many thanks to MBSAfan1, (although I did look up the square root of pi, I'm still not sure it's correct,) and there is still a lot more to come!
