‘Ice Age: Continental Drift’ Presents Scrat’s ‘The Artist’ Parody Video ‘The ScrATIST’

Twentieth Century Fox has just sent me over this awesome featurette for ‘Ice Age: Continental Drift,’ with everyone’s favourite acorn-obsessed prehistoric squirrel, Scrat, giving an Oscar-worthy performance in his very own ode to silent cinema: ‘The ScrATIST.’ In ‘Ice Age: Continental Drift,’ the voice talents of Ray Romano, Denis Leary and John Leguizamo are reunited with Queen Latifa and Seann William Scott, and joined by new voices Jennifer Lopez, Nick Frost, Aziz Ansari and Alan Tudyk in this new instalment of the award-winning and Oscar-nominated animated series. Directed by Steve Martino and Mike Thurmeier, ‘Ice Age: Continental Drift’ is set for release July 6th.

One of filmdom’s most beloved trios – “Ice Age’s” Manny, Diego, and Sid – embark upon their greatest adventure after cataclysm sets an entire continent adrift. Separated from the rest of the herd, they use an iceberg as a makeshift ship, which launches them on an epic seafaring quest. Manny and the gang are challenged like never before to become heroes and do the impossible, as they encounter exotic sea creatures, explore a brave new world, and battle ruthless pirates. Scrat’s reunion with his beloved but cursed acorn catapults him to places no prehistoric squirrel has gone before.
