An extended trailer/short film promoting Ice Age: Continental Drift began showing on Christmas Day 2010, just ahead of the comedy film Gulliver's Travels. The trailer short was released online in early-January of 2011.http://www.reelzchannel.com/movie-news/8778/full-length-ice-age-continental-drift-short-featuring-scrat-released-online The trailer features only one character from the Ice Age series: Scrat, a prehistoric, sabre-toothed squirrel.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQMuqmrA2aU

The theatrical trailer for Ice Age: Continental Drift opens by introducing viewers to Scrat, a sabre-toothed squirrel (voiced by Chris Wedge). As in previous Ice Age films, Scrat is desperately trying to hang on to his beloved acorns. In this trailer, Scrat seems to be having some issues keeping the acorn in his paws. As he tries to hang on to a newly-discovered acorn, the Earth cracks open, sending Scrat (and the acorn) falling towards the center of the Earth.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQMuqmrA2aU

As the trailer continues, Scrat desperately tries to secure the acorn as the Earth's crust splits, dividing the continents. Eventually, Scrat lands on an iceberg. The force of his landing splits the iceberg into, with Scrat on one chunk of ice and the acorn on the other. Scrat is forced to watch, dazed from his landing, as the acorn floats away.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQMuqmrA2aU
