But they soon found they had more in common, especially in how they were annoyed with Sid's antics. At first, they seemed to keep their relationship professional. Manny met Diego under very different circumstances than he had with Sid. But they became true friends, enough to risk their lives for the other. But as time went by, he became somewhat protective of Sid, mostly because he thinks that whatever Sid's gonna do he's gonna wind up hurting himself. Manny's friendship with Sid the Sloth "began" when he saved him from a pair of rhinos, after which Sid stuck with Manny for protection and annoyed him with his endless jabbering and stupidity. He became a loving father, a loyal mate, a good friend, and a worthy leader. Manny wanted to name her after her mother, but Ellie suggested using the codeword Peaches instead, and they agreed. Ellie woud soon give birth to their baby daughter. When Ellie went into labor, he got frantic but was backed up by Diego, who ran to protect Ellie while Manny fended off a pack of predators. Upon meeting the wacky weasel, Buck, he became more concerned with Ellie, but still willing to save Sid. He then said they needed a codeword for Ellie to say "the baby's coming", which he chose to be "peaches" because he likes peaches. When Sid was captured by Momma Dinosaur, Manny, Ellie, and Crash & Eddie went to rescue him, although Manny tried to get Ellie to stay home. Manny focused all his attention on Ellie that he disregarded Sid most of the time, and wasn't able to see eye-to-eye with Diego's notion of leaving the herd. In the third film, Ellie is pregnant with Manny's child, causing him to become over-protective of her, and to get a little overly dramatic over even little details, likely from how he lost his first mate and child and didn't want to go through that again. He also stated he likes Diego better than Sid. But after much soul-searching, Manny and Ellie finally found their feelings for each other and became mates, even after they were revealed to not be the last of their kind. It was made even harder due to the fact Ellie thought she was a possum like her adoptive brothers, Crash & Eddie, and because they were apprently the last of their kind t was their "duty" to procreate and continue their species. He was also reluctant to try to make a relationship with a female mammoth he met named Ellie due to lingering feelings for his family. In the second film, Manny has developed into a "leader" sort of character, but in denial that mammoths could go extinct, due them being the biggest things on earth. And his new friends, Sid and Diego, helped him develop into a more social and nicer 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. In the first movie, Manny was a grouchy, antisocial mammoth with a firm belief in staying loyal to others, and was easily annoyed, mostly at Sid's idiosyncrasies. This has also lead to a dislike for creatures that kill for reasons other than food. It is apparent that this is the reason he does not like socializing with any other animals - he is afraid that if he ever cared for someone again, there is the chance he will lose them. While his true name is " Manfred", many other characters throughout the films refer to him as simply " Manny".ĭuring the scene with the cave paintings in Ice Age, we learn that Manny's first mate and son were killed by a clan of Neanderthals out hunting. Manfred is a woolly mammoth shown as one of the main characters in both the first and second Ice Age films. History and background Main article: Manny's family
