I took a lot of convincing to watch the movie ICE AGE 3. I consider myself a movie buff but was never interested in any animation movies. They were left alone for the kids to enjoy. But 2 of my friends argued otherwise and we ended up booking for show in one of the multiplexes. In truth, kids were in less numbers and the average age in the theatre was around 30+. I didn’t have any expectations of how the movie would be when ushered into our seats.
Once the title cards rolled, I was glued to the screen and soon was transported to a different world. Only the projectionist had the efficacy to bring us all back to senses when he unceremoniously interrupted the show for a break. I realized in contrary to my earlier opinion about animation movies that I had shamelessly enjoyed it. Intermission is something that is meant for Indian movies when the director dishes out those suspense scenes to be continued in the later part. Intermissions look awkward in a 90 minute movie or in any Hollywood movies and who do we blame but the theatre bosses for their marketing strategy to sell those awful samosas and popcorns for an inflated price. When the movie resumed after 10 minute recess, the joy ride continued for another half an hour before a happy ending. It was a worthwhile 90 minute entertainment.
When it was time to leave, I knew I had enjoyed the movie to the fullest but then who would not. There was only one botheration though, we missed watching the movie in 3-D.
The ice never melts in this part of the world!

Good that you started enjoying "fantasy" movies as you call them.
