#ICE AGE THE MELTDOWN CHARACTERS SERIES#

Grumpy Bear: Moreso in the first film, but toned down greatly in the next three.

By the end of the movie, though, their friendship becomes genuine, albeit, a bit volatile.

Gleeful and Grumpy Pairing: The happy go lucky and outgoing sloth, Sid, formed a one-sided friendship with the grumpy wooly mammoth, Manny.

Gentle Giant: As grumpy as he can be, he's harmless unless you mess with his herd.

From the fourth film, Sid often gets on Manny's nerves a lot, but his biological family unhesitatingly abandoning the poor sloth behind his back with his grandmother left behind as well was something that shocked him, and he genuinely felt bad for Sid when breaking the news to him.

As much as a jerk he could be in the first film, he noticeably always intervenes when it looks like Sid, Diego, and especially Roshan are in life-threatening danger, even if just moments before or afterwards he's grumbling about how much of a pain they're being.

Even at his lowest point during the first film, Manny makes it very clear to Carl and Frank that he doesn't like animals that kill for pleasure.

Dope Slap: Is prone to giving these to Sid when he does something that annoys him.

Determinator: Once he sets his mind do something, he is either far too headstrong or far too stubborn (or both) to give up on it.

Fortunately, Roshan, Sid, and Diego fall into his path and give him something more to live for, and his friendships with them gradually reveal the deep warmth of Manny's heart.

Defrosting Ice King: His apparent cold exterior at the beginning of the original Ice Age is because he's suffered the recent loss of his family.

Deadpan Snarker: Though not as pronounced as Diego.

Dark and Troubled Past: Manny lost his first wife and child by hunters.

Cynicism Catalyst: His wife and child were killed by humans, which is why he is so grumpy now.Curtains Match the Windows: Brown pelt and brown eyes.Crusading Widower: It's revealed in the first film that his wife and son were killed by humans.And his new friends, Sid and Diego, helped him develop into a more social and nice guy. But as the film went by, he revealed himself to be a good person who had just lost his way after the loss of his family. Character Development: In the first movie, Manny was a grouchy, antisocial mammoth without a firm belief in staying loyal to others, and was easily annoyed, mostly at Sid's idiosyncrasies.Catchphrase: Manny has two, that relate both to his weight.Broken Bird: His first wife and first kid being killed by hunters was what got him to always defy friendship.Blonde, Brunette, Redhead: The brunet to Sid's blond and Diego's redhead.Big, Thin, Short Trio: The big to Diego's thin and Sid's short.He's a Gentle Giant, but you do NOT want to piss him off because he will attempt to kill you. The Big Guy: Manny is a combination of Classes 1 and 2.

Big Good: Throughout the entire series hes one to his herd and family.

He also hates being called fat claiming hes poofy.

This makes him something of a Bully Hunter - though rather than being something he goes out of his way to do, it's rather that it's one of the few things that can take him out of his apathy and shows that he really does care.

Creatures who kill for pleasure, likely due to his experiences with humans.

He even comes damn near close to killing Diego right then and there. After he finds out about Diego's ambush, he becomes the most furious we've ever seen him.

Belligerent Sexual Tension: With Ellie in the second film.

Babies Ever After: He and Ellie have a daughter, Peaches, by the end of the third movie.

Animal Species Accent: Ray Romano's low, nasally voice goes hand-in-hand with Manny's long trunk.

Amazon Chaser: Manny, himself, refers to Ellie as 'stubborn and hard-headed' and loves her for it.

However, he's had to learn to respect the fact that Peaches isn't a baby anymore several times.

Aesop Amnesia: He never does get over his fear of something happening to Ellie and Peaches, but considering that he watched his first family die while he was unable to protect them (and that dangerous things refuse to stop happening), this is entirely justified.

Affectionate Nickname: He's called 'Bro-Dad' by Julian.

Either way, he doesn't shy away from getting into a fight if it means defending himself and/or his family.

Action Dad: Both an actual dad and a Team Dad.
