July 13th 2012 - that's when the ice shifts, the acorn falls [again], and Ray Romano's ever-so distinguishable voice again bellows through a packed auditorium of ankle-biters.

Twentieth Century Fox has announced plans for a new "3D" (well, of course!) sequel to silly 'n snowy CGI kiddie hit "Ice Age". The fourth film in the popular kiddie saga, "Ice Age : Continental Drift" will be sandwiched between the "Dark Knight" sequel, released a week prior, and the "Spider-Man" reboot, out the week after.

No word on plot yet, but it's assumed voice actors Romano, Denis Leary, John Leguizamo and Queen Latifah will return.

Yes drain the the last drop of profit and beat that dead horse, LOL. The last movie was good though.
