*Foreshadowing: Before the reveal of the literal ocean of melted ice on the other side of the wall, Fast Tony and his oafish assistant are attempting to advertise hollow reeds as a snorkel. To Fast Tony's irritation, his assistant has shoved the reed into his own nostril (because that's where he breathes from) and cheerfully declares he can smell the ocean. That'd be because it's technically within view (though from this side it looks like ice), and the infamous "Eviscerator" waterfall nearby is sourced directly from it. That the "Eviscerator" even exists doesn't bode well for the wall's integrity.

Added DiffLines:

* CompressedVice: Diego suddenly has a massive phobia of water that he has to overcome, to the point where even stepping in a shallow puddle causes him to freak out. This was never even hinted at in the first movie, where he had no problem chasing Roshan's mother across a river and only backed off when she jumped down a waterfall to escape.

* BothSidesHaveAPoint: Manny and Ellie's arguments:
** Ellie has room to be offended when Manny suggests a little too openly that they should "save the species", especially when he tries saying it's their responsibility. That said, she later admits she overreacted, especially when it nearly gets the group killed trying to pass over a rock bridge.
** When the group finds the geyser field has activated from the approaching floodwaters, Manny and Ellie want to either cross it directly or go around, respectively. Manny wants to go straight through since they already overslept and the dam is going to burst soon. Ellie points out that it's a death trap, which every other character agrees with, and wants to go around it. Ultimately, neither side ends up completely right. Manny ''does'' nearly die in the geyser field and nearly gets Sid and Diego killed; while the dam ''does'' burst shortly before Ellie and her brothers make it to the boat.



* BreakUpMakeUpScenario: Manny and Ellie, twice.

* BreakUpMakeUpScenario: Manny and Ellie, twice. The first time is when they hit it off but Manny ruins it by a bit too forwardly suggesting they "save the species" together, offending Ellie, but they work together to save the group from a collapsing rock bridge; the second is when they can't agree on what path to take to the boat when faced with the geyser fields, which they make up over once Manny saves Ellie from the flood.
