Ellie: Me too, everyone falls from the tree every now and then, they just don’t admit it. -Wait, what? -Some of us have a tough time holding on the branches, I mean it’s not like we’re bad or something we don’t have wings to keep us up. -And you were in the tree because…? -Ouhh, I was looking for my brothers who always get into trouble. -Brothers? You mean, there is more? -Sure, it’s lots of us. -Where? -Everywhere. Under rocks and in the wholes in the ground; usually we come at night so that birds don’t carry us off. -Sid:...You’ve found another mamooth! -E:Where? Wait a minute, I thought mamooths were extinct. What are you looking at me for? -M: I don’t know, maybe because you’re mamooth? -E: Me?, don’t be ridiculous, I’m not a mamooth, I’m a possum. -M: Right, good one. | + | A 2006 American computer-animated film ''Ice Age: The Meltdown'' depicts the phenomenon of somnambulism at one of the main characters, Ellie.
