~ Orson vowing to finish Buck.
“
No one outsmarts...ORSON! Now we're gonna have to play a little game called "Drop Goes the Weasel". It means, TAKE, DOWN, BUCK!
„
~ Orson telling his minions to kill Buck.
Orson is the main antagonist of the 2022 Disney+ film, The Ice Age Adventures of Buck Wild, a spin-off to the Ice Age franchise. He is the second arch-nemesis of Buck after Rudy.
He is a Protoceratops with high intelligence who wants to take over the Lost World.
Orson is a narcissistic, ruthless, ill-tempered and xenophobic protoceratops with a Napoleon complex due to his desire of ruling the Lost World. He also seems to be an abusive leader as he treats his velociraptors like slaves instead of allies, and he is also shown to hate mammals. This can be caused by the fact that he is smarter than all of the dinosaurs, but his large brain got him bullied as a child.
Appearance[]
Orson is a dwarf side protoceratops with crimson red skin. He has a humongous brain growing on the back of his head that reaches almost to his top forehead. He has long sharp claws that are long enough to make sparks giving him the ability to make fire.
Biography[]
Past[]
When he was young, Orson was constantly bullied for the massive brain on the back of his head (which just so happened to be his brain). That would make him have a superiority complex and also lead to causing havoc in the Lost World, but he was eventually defeated and banished to Volcano Island by Buck and his crew. Blaming the weasel for interrupting his moment of glory and his newfound ego, Orson swore to have revenge on him and that he would rule the Lost World as Orson started to plan his revenge for years until recruiting his army of velociraptors after discovering their love of fire.
The Ice Age: Adventures of Buck Wild[]
Orson later reappears in the middle of a cave where Buck, Crash and Eddie was inside, he orders his Raptors to eat Crash and Eddie but they escapes the Lost World after visiting it years ago and they wanted to live a life of adventures with Buck. However, Buck saves them while flying on his pterodactyl Penelope. Orson later closes the door of Buck's cave with a giant rock and starts explaining his plan and that the Lost World should be only for lost creatures like dinosaurs and that he plans to use his new army to rule the Dinosaur World. Later, Orson succeeds to knock off Buck but Zee manage to find Momma T-Rex so they can help them in the battle while Crash and Eddie distracts the Raptors by playing dead.
Orson locks Buck in a wooden cage and prepares to execute him in front of everyone by feeding him to his Raptors but Zee, Crash and Eddie saves him and begins a fight. Later Manny, Sid, Diego, Ellie and Momma T-Rex joined the fight and began attacking raptors. He fights back against Buck. He was beaten in brain and almost was caught. But he outsmarts Buck and uses fire once again to keep the Raptors under his control ordering them to kill Buck and his friends but they are saved by Crash and Eddie with fire. Manny, Sid, Diego, Ellie and Momma T-Rex later caught Orson and throws him into the other side of the Lost World, as he later faces all the other mammals that are extremely angry with him for his heinous crimes as Crash and Eddie who now has the ability of controlling the Raptors forces them to chase Orson away and treat him like a "chew toy" as he is defeated again for good.
It is unknown what happened to Orson afterwards since he was not seen again after this, but it's likely that he got killed and mauled by his own Raptors.
Quotes[]
“
Oh, you likey the fire?
„
~ Orson.
“
Nobody is smarter than Orson!
„
~ Orson.
“
(Buck: Look, the truth is: we all need each other.) [Attacks him with tail] (Down here, all creatures, mammals and dinos alike, we need to live in harmony.) Oh, you're so naive! This is why I feel sorry for you, Buck. You're too idealistic. In the real world it's survival of the fittest, or should I say smartest.
„
~ Orson ignores Buck's appealing.
“
Looks like you got me, Bucky. Or do you? [Chuckles] Seems I have outsmarted you once again. They're gonna tear your little friends to pieces, and they're gonna come for you. Watch this, Buckmeister. [Lights a leaf up] It's showtime.
„
~ Orson to Buck about raptors who are gonna kill Crash and Eddie.
“
What? You imbeciles! You raptors not possums. Get up!
„
~ Orson freaking out upon raptors' "defeat".
“
I don't know if you got the memo. I'm your king! I command you... [almost bitten by raptor] Ah! [Running away] Oh, whoa, that was cool! Please, don't eat me. You'll be depriving the world of a great genius! I'm full of tiny bones that'll get stuck in your throat! What have I told you about boundaries?...
„
~ Orson's last words as he is being chased by his own minions.
Trivia[]
When Crash and Eddie learned about Orson’s ability to speak, they said dinosaurs don’t talk. That isn't entirely true as the dinosaurs from the previous Ice Age film spoke. However, it's also possible that they forgot that Gavin and his family spoke or they simply chose not to acknowledge that fact.
He is the fourth speaking main villain in the Ice Age franchise. The first was Soto, the second was Captain Gutt, and the third was Gavin.
Orson resembles a Triceratops more than a Protoceratops, due to head shape and his intelligence as the Protoceratops species didn't have brains in real life. One of main Protoceratops attribute is small size.
Orson is also the second main villain the Ice Age series to have never interacted or meet Manny and the gang (except Crash and Eddie), after Gavin.
He is the first main antagonist in the Ice Age franchise since the dissolution of Blue Sky Studios (the franchise's original studio) the previous year.
Orson's name could be a reference to Orson Welles, as well as Maurice LaMarche's impression of Welles' voice as The Brain from Animaniacs.
