Ice Age: Continental Drift
	Blue Sky Studio's series of family-friendly cartoons about the adventures of three prehistoric chums – Manny the mammoth, Sid the sloth and Diego the sabretooth tiger – plus assorted hangers-on and family members, gears up for a fourth instalment. This time, at sea.
Little Big Shots
Sydney	Australia's only major annual film festival for kids (and the grown-up kids) is back again, once more featuring only the very best in local and international children's shorts, animations, documentaries and even films produced by kids themselves.
The Amazing Spider-Man
	Teens will be all over this school holiday blockbuster. This version of the Marvel Comics staple is an origins tale (dead dad, classroom bullying, spider-bite) which is low on psychological trauma and high on regular teen woes.
