Scrat - No time for nuts
Synopsis :
Scrat découvre une machine à remonter le temps et s'en sert pour notre plus grand plaisir.
Synopsis :
Scrat, the saber-toothed squirrel (a fictional animal from the
Ice Age film series),
while trying to find a place to hide his acorn, finds a buried time
machine next to the ice-encased skeletal body of a human time traveler
that looks like
Einstein.
He accidentally activates the machine, sending the acorn away. Scrat
gets mad and tries to beat up the time machine and it sends him to the
Middle Ages. Finding the acorn wedged under a rock, Scrat sees
the Sword in the Stone
and decides to use it as a lever to move the rock. He pulls out the
sword but then finds himself under attack by a group of unseen archers,
and uses the sword to block the arrows fired by the archers. He frees
the acorn and takes it and the time machine and races off to find cover,
only to hide in the barrel of a cannon. The cannon fires him into the
path of hundreds of incoming arrows. The time machine teleports the
acorn mid-flight and Scrat just barely manages to activate the machine
again for himself.
He materializes in an arena in
Ancient Rome.
Scrat reaches for his acorn, but is dragged off when his tail is caught
on a passing chariot. Scrat manages to free himself just as a fanfare
sounds. He thinks it is victory music and introduces himself to the
crowd like a triumphant
gladiator,
proudly holding up his acorn. Then he hears the growl of a lion coming
from the tunnel behind him. He activates the time machine again, and
lands on a field of ice. He is overjoyed, thinking he is home, but he
soon learns he's really in 1912 when he sees the
RMS Titanic heading straight towards him. The time machine is activated after impact, and Scrat finds himself in the first
Ice Age movie, where he encounters himself and fights himself for his acorn. (
Manny,
Sid,
Diego, and
Roshan made a cameo watching the fight.) The acorn is teleported again, much to the distress of both Scrats.
The time traveling Scrat is then sent to many dangerous situations
where he would have been killed if he had not activated the time machine
in time; under a launching rocket, in a dark jewellery store, in a
girl's locker room (where he is hit by a roller brush), in the
French Revolution (where he appears under the falling blade of a
guillotine), during
Benjamin Franklin's kite flying
experiment, in front of a
wrecking ball, in front of the
Hiroshima, on the tracks of a steam locomotive and in front of
Michelangelo's
David
(this actually isn't dangerous but Scrat still displays discomfort).
Frustrated, Scrat punches the machine, which sends him into a strange
realm of floating timepieces. Scrat spots his acorn and grabs it, just
before being drawn into a
wormhole along with his acorn and the time machine.
The wormhole lands Scrat in front of an enormous
oak tree.
Overjoyed at the sight of so many acorns, he tosses away his own acorn,
which lands on and activates the time machine. Before it can fire
again, Scrat smashes the time machine. Scrat attempts to remove the nuts
from the tree, but soon discovers that it is only a sculpture, with a
plaque
on it reading "Here Stood the Last Oak Tree." Scrat realizes he's in
the far future, where oak trees (and acorns) are extinct. He realizes
that the acorn he brought with him is the only real one around. He makes
a dash for it, but the time machine manages to fire one last time,
transporting the acorn right out of his paws right before the time
machine collapsed into pieces. Stranded in the acorn-less future, Scrat
lets out a scream of frustration, ending the film.
Then the lost acorn ends up floating behind the credits of the film.
