One of SpongeBob SquarePants' worst outings. Find (almost) all my videos here: docs.google.co... Patreon: Patreon.com/MrEnter Link tree: linktr.ee/mren...
There was also an episode where SpongeBob takes in a bunch of stray snails and basically becomes a crazy cat lady. There’s no way in hell snails are considered endangered species in the SpongeBob universe.
@@Animestar21 Although i do agree with you, he did say in the episode that one or two is fine but not like a dozen of them. I do somewhat agree with you though
@@Animestar21 You mean "Sanctaury!"? Well Squidward even states in the episode that he's allergic to snails, although there is only a reaction if there are many snails. He can stand a few, which is why he was never allergic to Gary, but probably one of the reasons that he didn't like Gary.
What’s even sadder is this movie has been delayed multiple times and the people at Nickelodeon didn’t use that extra time wisely to make this a better movie.
@@professionaltrashcan6758 The plot is derivative of already existing Spongebob stories ("Have You Seen This Snail?" and the first movie). There's absolutely nothing interesting about it.
Sounds like what illumination's doing by having Charles Martinet have a cameo rather that let him voice one of the most important gaming icons of all time
They turned King Poseidon into a bubble Guppies villain Reasons 1. His evil plan is too baby showish 2. He cries like a baby in the climax 3. He redeems himself
The worst part about this plot is how easy it is to fix. Instead of Plankton stealing Gary to get the formula because all snails are endangered, make Gary specifically an endangered species. Neptune (because we don't need Posidon) sends out a royal decree asking for all blue snails with pink shells and a swirl and dots so they can start a repopulation program. The movie is then the gang trying to get there first. Spongebob and Patrick because it's the right thing to do, Plankton is trying to steal Gary for the reward, Krabs has an obviously fake snail, Sandy wants to offer her scientific expertise, etc. Everyone is in character, you get to the same place, and you can even include fanservice with references and cameos. You can even organically include the whole "friends breaking apart" plot that's always in these movies; Spongebob believes Gary must stay there forever, and goes home sad alone. Then, there's a knock at the door. It's Gary, when Spongebob asks how he can be back already, Gary pulls out a picture of some babies, his kids. Have picture fold out to a comically large amount of babies proving the population is saved. Role credits.
I didn't even realize that either. Even if that isn't the actual implication that still would be a dark twist that would actually work in that episode.
@@pepperonipizza8200 I thought that was a reference to how some weird people have family pets stuffed when they die, or even just keep the skulls as decoration
The fact that they put "In memory of Stephen Hillenburg" on such a movie that horribly misinterprets his creation and is meant to be a prequel to a series that he himself did not want feels like Nickelodeon making a giant penis on the ground in front of his tombstone.
Stephen Hillenburg did work on this movie prior to his passing, and Kamp Koral was one of his last projects before he passed away. Vincent Waller (Who knew Stephen Hillenburg personally) have stated this on twitter in case you were wondering
@@MisterVercetti Again, Stephen Hillenburg worked on Kamp Koral and this movie before he died. Litterly Vincent Waller addressed this last year. I don’t even get why people are still mad at this.
@@ShockwaveFPSStudios The idea for Kamp Koral was conceived a month before Stephen died from ALS. October, 2018. Stephen died November 26, 2018. I doubt he was involved at all, being literally on his deathbed. He had had increasing difficulty with communication, and was likely in no state to work on any projects during his last month of life. In fact, if you read the rest of Vincent's posts on the Twitter thread you're referring to, he said that "I had lost two friends to death in a short and it has kinked up my chronological memories of events into a bit of a slippery jumble for that entire block of time." Stephen did not work on Kamp Koral, and Vincent himself admitted he probably remembered it wrong. I know you probably don't mean harm, but you're spreading misinformation and didn't even read the entire twitter thread you're using as a source.
@@lindenbree9188 I wasn’t spreading misinformation, in fact Vincent Waller wasn’t the only one who backed this up, Tom Kenny stated that he and Stephen Hillenburg were approached by the producers of Kamp Koral.
F is for Failure, a shit kind of movie U is for Underperforming N is for Never forget what Nick tried to do with Spongebob almost immediately after Hillenburg died.
Originally, the 3rd SpongeBob movie was meant to be called "It's a Wonderful Sponge", a parody of the classic Christmas movie "It's a Wonderful Life". Keanu Reeves was meant to play as SpongeBob's Guardian Angel as he takes SpongeBob to an alternate timeline of Bikini Bottom when he didn't exist and why he means a whole lot to everyone, kind of like what "It's a Wonderful Life" did. However, figuratively speaking, Nickelodeon came into the studio during production and demanded the movie to advertise and promote "Kamp Koral", but Stephen Hillenburg said no and doesn't want it to happen. Nickelodeon obeyed his wishes. After Stephen passed away, Nickelodeon demanded the SpongeBob movie team to scrap everything, rewrite the script to include Kamp Koral, and tell Keanu Reeves that he will be playing a talking tumbleweed instead. Speaking of Keanu Reeves, you can tell by the look on his face and tone of voice that he regrets signing onto this movie after his role change. Other things about "Sponge on the Run" that makes this awful: 1. The words "hell" and "crappy" were said in the movie. 2. When SpongeBob reads the book about Atlantic City, the book said it was a "lost city" and warns whomever reads the book "not to go". If Atlantic City is "lost" and "forbidden", how did all the fish in the ocean and Bikini Bottom even get there?!? 3. If Poseidon is a king and he's rich, why couldn't he spend money on facial cosmetics to fix his wrinkles? What makes snail slime so important that it can cure wrinkles? 4. Speaking of the snails, if the snail population had depleted around the ocean, why isn't the authorities and/or animal rescue doing anything to find the snails? Why isn't the depletion making major headlines around the oceans? 5. The whole Kamp Koral flashback on how SpongeBob met everyone was not only terrible, but it sums up everything on what was already established in previous episodes and seasons that were set in stone: those episodes don't count anymore! Kamp Koral, according to Nickelodeon's case, is THE OFFICIAL backstory on how SpongeBob met everyone! SpongeBob told Sandy to become a Scientist, he told Mr. Krabs to open up a Krusty Krab Restaurant, he told Patrick to be proud of being stupid, he told Squidward to continue to play Clarinet despite sucking at it, he told Larry to workout, Mrs. Puff to open up a Boating school; etc. Bikini Bottom and all inhabitants exist because SpongeBob is their Messiah!
@@lpfan4491Mary Jo Catlett should have warned them not to turn them into a spinoff farm like her old show *Diff'rent Strokes* turned into after her predecessor once removed got her own show.
It really is a shame that the movie turned out the way it did, since the animation is REALLY beautiful and expressive and fits the tone of the show. At least I will admit that “The Secret to the Formula is You” is a real banger though the lyrics are a bit cliche, and (out of context and divorced from the rest of the movie) the scene where SpongeBob’s friends express how much he means to them is pretty heartwarming. Other than that, from what I’ve been hearing, this movie seems like a mess! 😅 Also, it barely seems like a SpongeBob movie, it feels a bit more like any generic kid’s movie, ESPECIALLY thanks to the pop songs.
I hated the soundtrack to *Rugrats in Paris* so much I was glad the first *SpongeBob* movie didn't go down that road. I also couldn't stand Chip Skylark or Britney Britney on *The Fairly OddParents* either. What the hell happened to music in the 1990s? Every genre turned to ear-Cosbying. Thank the God its creator doesn't believe in for *Family Guy* because at least with the music, there is a stop-loss on how bad they will let it get.
More continuity in Spongebob that is broken in this movie. Squidward is older than Spongebob, probably by 5 years minimum. We know this because Squidward has a head of hair when Jim, the best fry cook in the Krusty Krab is working there. So, if Squidward is older than Spongebob, HOW IS SQUIDWARD ALSO A LITTLE KID AT SUMMER CAMP?!
@@TacomasterStudios if anything it would make more sense to have squidward as the teen camp counselor and mr krabs as the owner (he made the camp thinking he could teach kids how to work and be a customer at the krusty krab BUT had to put ore legitimate camping stuff so people didn't notice anything wrong and he eventually shut down the camp because it costed too much)
@@ianr.navahuber2195 Actually, forgot to mention but Mr. Krabs first meets SpongeBob in Help Wanted as an adult. It's extremely likely that SpongeBob had heard of Mr. Krabs, but Krabs hadn't met SpongeBob until then. (Squidward actively tries to warn Krabs at the beginning of the episode of SB's arrival, as if Krabs hadn't heard of him.)
@@TacomasterStudios Actually, SpongeBob addresses Mr. Krabs when he first talks to him, so we can assume that they were at least a little familiar with each other.
This feels like the writers were trying to remake the original film for a new generation. And, on the one hand, I'm not completely against that. It's like moral-driven cartoons that retell the same morals other shows have. It's retelling those morals for a new generation of children who probably didn't see earlier examples. Sure, younger generations can still enjoy the original movie, but sometimes it's good to revamp something for a newer time. But this movie gives me the impression that the writers lacked what made the original movie great: Passion. You can tell a lot of love went into the original, even the actors playing the pirates at the start look like they're having a grand old time. Here, I'm not getting that vibe with Sponge on the Run.
If recycling the season 4 special plot of Wheres Gary with random celebrities popping up, a new animation style and being a ling commercial force noncanon spinoff is the best Nickelodeon could do as the first film without any input from Stephen, a bad start to out it mildly
Nah. It just honestly feels more like abunch of hacks siphoning off from a better work, because they can, and just using that for their sleezy snake oil hustle.
@@brainthebrian3690 Yeah. Why do you think I said it lacked the passion the original had? The people behind this movie had no passion of their own to speak of.
What's painful about the absence of the french narrator in favor of a more modern "planet earth" esque narrator is that it could have worked. It would be pretty funny if you had him and the french narrator fight with each other for the voiceover gig at the beginning or throughout the movie.
I think the reason this movie turned out so poorly was a mix of corporate meddling with wanting to promote their new show and them changing plots most of the way through storyboard development. The original storyboards got so far that they made promotional images for It’s a wonderful sponge, but they had to scrap all that and quickly make something else to meet a deadline. So they decided to just take what worked before, remove originality, add the Kamp Koral still to make the corporate suits happy, and get it out the door.
Yeah at least there was an actual reason for why this ended up being awful, unlike Wownow Entertainment's Dia of the Dead, which for some reason came TWO YEARS AFTER Coco, the movie Dia is ripping off.
@@ExtremeWreck a *Muppet Babies* movie would have been interesting, but not with what Disney has done to the IP. They cared more about emasculating Gonzo than compensating the guy who came up with the idea to do it as a series 40 years ago.
Hillenburg departing the show twice (the second because of the obvious) was the death-knell for the series as a smartly written, directed and creatively narrow focused franchise.
The fact this show turned into the mindless drivel parents originally complained would warp their kids makes it worse. It's like we stepped into an alternate universe where The Patrick Star Show-level humor and forced callbacks were always Spongebob's brand.
The death knell was literally the death of the creator, but Nickelodeon won't give it a break because they have nothing to take its place. Before *SpongeBob,* everyone was all about *Rugrats,* so it was taking the place of a show that had been popular but had run its course, went away for awhile, and came back.
This movie's more of a mocking eulogy for Stephen Hillenburg than a loving tribute to a dead man, it shows how little they actually gave a damn about the franchise that made them money even with its creator back in the saddle for a little while longer before he passed away.
Sponge On The Run was such an abysmal scam that I raged quit the modern series and went on to follow a Loud House fan on Instagram who makes better stories than the plot this film had. Soon enough, I lost respect for modern SpongeBob and now I mostly stick to the good portions of a fandom of a show or video game franchise. I’m glad you finally got to upload this video so I share my feelings about this movie with you. And 4 more AAs until 200!
The problem with the Bob's Burgers Movie is that Loren Bouchard demanded that it was fit for theaters but the only thing that seemed to work in its favor was the animation bump and the opening number with the story trying to catch up to it.
This movie feels like one of those times when they are legally allowed to use only somethings from story so they need make new stuff that replaces the stuff they couldn't use.
Something tragic must've happened to the snail population between this and Sponge Out of Water. In SOW SpongeBob's house was just lousy with them when Gary overtook It.
I'd be curious to see if this plot gets plucked from the vault for Movie 4, both for the chance of being a solid palate cleanser after this film and because it sounds like an interesting film
You know the movie is bad when lots of people say they think this plot actually sounds pretty interesting and would've wanted to see _that_ instead of what we ended up getting
It's Not a SpongeBob movie, It's a Kamp Koral commercial disguised as a TV Movie you can only find on Nick like Atlantis SquarePantis or Truth or Square.
@@jlev1028 , Nickelodeon Executives and Paramount+ executives seems to have the religious structure of the world of SpongeBob being a polytheistic belief structure like Hinduism 🕉️ more so than a monotheistic belief structure like the Abrahamic beliefs like Judaism ✡️, Christianity ✝️, and Islam ☪️ whereas if the original creator of SpongeBob were still alive to this day then clearly he wouldn’t have had his cartoon series having a polytheistic belief structure like in Hinduism.
i have a theory that the part where the characters say how they met spongebob was originally supposed to show recreations of past episodes like for sandy it would show sandy fighting the giant clam in tea at at the treedome or plankton stealing the patty in his debut episode but nickelodeon demanded that they promote the spinoff and the remake segments were scrapped
I'm actually almost entirely convinced this movie is responsible for killing the entire franchise and getting all three shows cancelled considering how it stole the tv slot for The Tidal Zone crossover special that was supposed to air back in November. If that is true then this movie is way worse than what everybody thinks it is.
Well considering the fact that Nickelodeon cancelled one of their biggest events of this year for the tv premiere of a movie which failed to reach US theaters, they most likely cancelled all shows unannounced. There's even episodes that have already been finished which will never air now.
1:47 to 2:01 This plot point might have worked if the movie said that the snail slime Poseidon needed only came from a particular & race breed of snail. Then it's revealed that Gary is a member of this rare breed.
Actually, if anyone can defeat Jason, it would probably be SpongeBob. It takes place under water, Jason's fear/kryptonite. SpongeBob has been torn to pieces before and always regenerates and multiplies. Finally, as stated by Death Battle, SpongeBob is probably THE fastest cartoon character in the multiverse.
This movie is just the first one again without the zombies in it. I'm...not surprised. At all. What I am surprised about is that the staff of the movie allowed the second half to be an advertisement for Kamp Krusty, no questions asked. Another thing about Kamp Krusty that honestly pisses me off is that, yeah, Spongebob has no solid continuity, *BUT IT HAS BITS OF SOLID CONTINUITY. That this movie just straight up threw out the window with Sandy.* But wait, there's another thing that pisses me off about this movie you forgot to mention: Bikini Bottom isn't just one island now, it's an *entire fucking landmass* and it never gets brought up outside of that overhead shot. Like, do you realize how weird that is in relation to the depiction of the island in the other movies? You expect me to believe that whole thing is Bikini Bottom? What happened, global warming just created another, bigger island?! Really? I mean, the *ABSOLUTE LEAST* you could do was slowly make the island PNG bigger in the second movie so that the overhead shot makes sense. *HELL, I READ THE COMICS, AND THEY HAD BETTER PLOTS.* Hold it, one more underlying thing the movies all keep going back to is the *SPONGE ON LAND!* subplot. There are now 4 movies that ape the original shock of the surface world - Sandy’s spinoff movie will be the fifth and I’m like, *“Please. Enough with the land crap.”*
Better idea: SpongeBob is misled to believe that snails are endangered, leading him to go to comical lengths to protect Gary, who is in no way endangered and can in fact protect himself. End the episode with Gary protecting SpongeBob and SpongeBob learning that snails aren't endangered--then a gag with Patrick believing that sponges are endangered and ending on a dumb joke with SpongeBob running from Patrick while Gary chuckles or something idk it's just what popped in my head as soon as I heard the premise and I think it has more potential than this movie plot
I think SpongeBob should’ve stopped with the 20th anniversary episode because SpongeBob has kinda taken a nosedive afterwards episodes like jolly lodgers and squid’s on a bus just annoy me hell I rarely watch anymore spongebobs big birthday blowout to me was a perfect send off for the character and a great tribute to Stephen hillenburg
Seeing that title card makes me wanna do this: F is for failing, what this movie does. U is utterly shameless. N is for never will Spongebob be good anymore. That is simply, Reality!
Given the original plot involved alien cats invading, my personal theory was that the original people involved decided to go all out with a crazy story to satirize how a 3rd film was unnecessary and how difficult it was to top sponge out of water Paramount/nickelodeon didn’t get the joke and thought the film diverted too far from what people associate with the IP and railroaded a low effort retread of the first movie with mandated references to the spin-offs
This video is fantastic. I may like the movie myself but you brought up very valid points and the editing is fantastic as usual. Keep up the good work Johnathan.
@@TheMysteriousMrEnter Yeah, way more effort than the guys who made the damn movie. It's like a mocking eulogy from someone who really hated Spongebob rather than the Nick execs. Oops, tautology! Either way, keep up the good work, at least you're smarter than the meatheads at Nick by a mile.
@@TheMysteriousMrEnter Is Scoob possible too for the chopping block? Associate that with Sponge On The Run because they're 2 films pushed back due to covid and werent worth the theatre trek once each got released in the early 2020s
@@TheMysteriousMrEnter I feel that out of the three SpongeBob movies, Sponge Out of Water is the only movie to feel like a “SpongeBob” movie. Also, I know SpongeBob said that he saw a Land Squirrel before, I didn’t think it would be this ridiculous.
If this movie really was "in memory of Steven Hillenburg" then it wouldn't exist, they would have cancelled the show over a decade ago, and they wouldn't make a ton of plastic spongebob merch to pollute the ocean with (something Steven openly said he was against).
@@Channeleven2345789 Why should I need to know Stephen personally to know that he was openly against plastic pollution??? You realize he was a marine biologist, right?
Stephen hillenburg didn’t say he didn’t want spin offs , he said he didn’t see spin offs . He said Patrick by himself might be a little too much . The Patrick star show gives Patrick other characters to play off of .
@@PhantomAarantula There was an interview he gave in 2009 from Television Business International. In the spin-off portion, Stephen said this: "The show is about SpongeBob, he’s the core element, and it’s about how he relates to the other characters. Patrick by himself might be a bit too much. So I don’t see any spin-offs." Even then, it's more of an observation than a request
Odd how shelled mollusks are ridiculously diverse in the real ocean but seem to be one species of different colorations in Spongebob. The fish are quite diverse but what happened to the molluscan fauna in this world? One king cannot deplete mollusks which breed like rabbits.
Also, if one king even could deplete all snails in the sea, that would wreck havoc on the ecosystem, which would frankly make for a way more interesting story
The only phrase that adequately describes this film is "Frankensteinian abomination". They pretty much exhumed pieces of previous Spongebob episodes and movies from the grave and thoughtlessly stitched them together, creating a horrific monster that should never have been.
Wait, am I missing something? Isn't Squidward supposed to be an older junior camp counselor in the Kamp Koral series? Whereas SpongeBob and Patrick are kids attending the camp. Why the Hell is he SpongeBob's age in this movie, as kid? Forget the actual SpongeBob continuity, this movie couldn't even get Kamp Koral's continuity right, which it's meant to advertise!
Spongebob used to be such a good show. I was there when it originally aired. There’s an episode in recent years called Random Land. It’s literally a remake of the Pizza Delivery episode. This show has fallen so far.
Same here. I used to be there from when the show first aired back in May 1st 1999 with Help Wanted, Reef Blowers and Tea at the Treedome. I hope that Cosmic Shake can get me back into the show.
I think what saddens me the most is the fact that it's so well animated! Here's a quote you can put on the poster Nickelodeon: "The animation is good but the movie is not"
It was essentially an extended episode of the show. Not that it was a bad thing. It gave me everything I wanted and more. It's nice they reference the movie in the intro. Really adds to the greater Bob's Burgers Canon.
an extremely goofy movie, hey arnold the movie, phenias and ferb across the 2nd dimension, Bigger Longer and Uncut, any of the fairly oddparents movies.
That's what I Said. . . Seriously; It Doesn't COUNT as a Road Trip Movie; Since None of Our Characters actually Leave Town. . . which is the Whole point of a "Road Trip"; to Leave Town; It's more like an Extended Episode of the Show; A Big Budget Episode of the Show; that can do a LOT more with the Animation than a TV Budget would allow for; With Big Musical Numbers; Fluid Animation; Higher-than-usual Stakes; Attention to the Show's Continuity; Answers to some of the Show's Biggest Mysteries[We get to find out the Origins of Louise's Iconic Bunny Hat; as well as Getting a Reveal for the design of Bob Belcher's Dead Mother]
Sadly something else took that title. This is because unlike Wacky World of Tex Avery producers DiC, at least Nick, you know, OWNED THE CHARACTERS(Tex Avery's characters weren't with DiC: they were split with Warner Bros. & MGM before Turner eventually decided to buy them) & thus didn't need to make it a knockoff/bootleg movie(speaking of which, SpongeBob In Tehran, a bootleg movie from Iran, is better than this movie).
Now John Waters will have to come out of retirement to put him in a movie. David Hasselhoff was also in *A Dirty Shame* the same year as the first SB movie.
This movie somehow managed to fuck up the continuity and lore of a show that didn’t even have any continuity and lore in the first place. I didn’t think that was even possible, but apparently it is.
My interpretation was that snails weren’t endangered, but that no snail was willing to work for King Poseidon because they all knew how he treated them. But even if that’s the case, they could’ve executed that so much better
“It’s a sad attempt to cash in on what came before and resulted in nothing but a pale imitation that leaves nothing of value.” Why did he just describe everything to us?
5:22 I had that Spongebob special on DVD and watched it religiously as a kid but I'm just NOW findind out Granny ATE her previous pet snails...???? I thought they got too fat and died from obesity from her "loving them too much". 😨
So... the "Sponge on the Run" title is even less accurate than "Sponge Out of Water"? I remember being pissed off when I saw that one that the titular plotline didn't actually happen until over an hour into it. So this one does it even worse? Great...
The thing is, that one at least made sense as a pun to justify it. Spongebob has absolutely no idea what is going on and is in a unique situration nobody could have anticipated, so he's like a fish out of water. I feel like they should have called this "Sponge hits the road".
3:28 The different narrator still works somewhat, because it fits with the 'wildlife commentary spoof' theme of the original narrator character, albeit changing the documentarian being spoofed-- Sir David Attenborough instead of Jacques Cousteau.
At First I didn't like this Movie but as Time goes By the More I think about it,the Worse it Get,the 1st and 2nd Films are Cannon to Me,but Sponge on the Run feels like a Huge Middle Finger to the Establish Lore of the Franchise and Seven Hillenburg,Hell the Original Idea of this Movie that was Scrapped is Much Better from what We Got,there's some Decent Parts but it's Not Enough to Save It,the Last 2 Movies were Fun but the 3rd One feels Miserable,the 4th Upcoming Movie I can't Tell if it will be Good.
10:52 tbh that sounds like a good idea for a SpongeBob movie. SB does something reckless (like cause a horrific boating accident), and he has to be on the run from the law. more original than plankton and the formula
God I heard that this movie is bad but this is a whole different level I respect the hell out of you for constantly subjecting yourself to this for content
Original: Excellent and timeless. Story remains relevant and poignant as ever. Out of Water: Good ideas-awful execution. Krabby Patty being basis of social order should have been replaced with a more serious catalyst-Should have focused more on their interactions with the “real” world and not being a budget super hero film. On the Run: Has ONE genuinely good idea-Mr. Krabs willingly giving up the formula due to depression. Would have been interesting to see a potential reconciling between Mr. Krabs and Plankton-retiring the Plankton attempts to steal formula now recognizing he has wasted his true potential on something rather minute in comparison to his true vocation, scientific achievement.
Reminder that in several episodes of the show and a couple of the games. Snails are potrayed as borderline pests in the wild with booming feral populations in both the wild and the urban jungles of cities. We see feral snail populations in Gary in Love, Have You Seen this Snail, and WhoBob WhatPants just to name a few, not to mention Revenge of the Flying Dutchman on PS2.
When I watched this, and we got to the end where they resolved the plot, but then Spongebob kept saying too much and angering King Posidon, I was thinking, "What sort of Deus Ex Machina will suddenly appear to save them from his anger?" And then I thought "Oh! The grill that shot into the sky from earlier! It's going to land on his head right now and knock him out!" But then he just gave up and cried, and I realized that I had forgotten that the movie wasn't that clever or competent.
Not only did the creators of this movie not make it better with the time they had but they also went against Stephen's wishes to create awful and ugly spin-off shows
And to create a crossover. I get that the crossover is with the spin-offs, but sooner or later, Nickelodeon might give SpongeBob a crossover with Big Nate or something. It’s gonna feel less like disrespecting Stephen Hillensburg’s dreams and more like an indirect jab at his face.😔
How do you fuck up the continuity in a show with no continuity? The only continuity in SpongeBob is pretty much "this character is introduced and may or may not become a mainstay from here on out." And given Kamp Koral, even that isn't true.
Fun Fact: "Sponge on the Run" is also the name of an autorunner mobile game made to promote Sponge Out of Water (the 2nd and last good movie) back in 2015
Also, it's sad that this is the only Spongebob movie that I completely skipped. I thought Sponge Out of Water might've been a cashgrab when I first watched trailers, yet I still watched it. Of course, I was 17 at the time and didn't have the standards I do know but still.
Originally this movie was gonna be about cat aliens, people thought that would be too weird or crazy. I bet those people wish they went with the original idea
4:30, when you said that every single movie based on a cartoon is a road trip movie, in MOST cases, you are right. Movies such as the 2004 SpongeBob SquarePants movie, the 2017 My Little Pony movie, and Beavis and Butthead Do America are definitely road trip movies. However, movies like The Simpsons Movie aren’t entirely road trip movies. Then there's South Park: Bigger Longer and Uncut, which isn’t a road trip movie, pretty much, at all.
