This shot is a farewell, a send-off on our own terms,” the Connecticut, US-based animation film studio wrote in the description of an unlisted YouTube video titled “The End”. “In the final days of Blue Sky Studios, a small team of artists came together to do one final shot. Speaking of the Acorn, Blue Sky has unveiled a (possibly non-canonical) video on YouTube that features Scrat finally eating what he’s been chasing forever. With Ice Age: Scrat Tales, Blue Sky delivers its final piece in the Ice Age mythology: a series of six shorts starring hapless saber-toothed squirrel Scrat and his adorable, mischievous Baby Scrat as they battle for the Acorn. Less than two years under its new owner Disney as part of its acquisition of 21st Century Fox, Blue Sky was shuttered last April with Disney citing effects of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
The Ice Age franchise expanded this week - on Disney+ and Disney+ Hotstar - with the shorts series Ice Age: Scrat Tales, but it’s the swansong for its creator and animation outfit Blue Sky Studios.
