Extra detail I just noticed rewatching the theory again: the two people who casually “interfere” with Spongebob fully joining the Goofy Goober Cult are Movie Neptune (who quite literally “interrupts” in the perfect moment) and Mindy, Movie Neptune's teenage daughter. Not only does it ally with the Neptune Theory of Movie Neptune and Mindy being hired actors for the movie, BUT it also aligns with the Television Theory: the writers are trying to pull Spongebob away from the cult because... there's no show without Spongebob.

[@speedartandmore]

Can't remember if this was mentioned in this video but the aliens from Atlantis have a thing for ice cream. Like the weapons shoot ice cream, and they can turn things into exclusively ice cream. So maybe those are the aliens they worship. I just thought it fits with the theory.

While a good point there is a question. How did anyone find out the Atlantians turned all their weapons and such into Ice Cream Dispensers? If I recall.

[@justtrash8796]

The shot composition at the ending scene was really neat, allow me to analyze for a moment: 1. in my interpretation, putting individuals at different heights creates a sense of dominance and superiority, the monster is quite literally a level above alex here - whereas before, alex was always the one who had to come down to its level - which cinematically demonstrates the shift in control here (as seen in the monster eating the cat despite it not being offered, it just took it instead of being given the meat). what was once a symbiosis has turned into a parasitic relationship. 2. Alex is forced to look UP to the creature - whereas before they saw eye to eye (literally) - which is also metaphorical as he is looking up to this monster for guidance and spongebob theories. And at the same time, this creature is looking down at alex, seeing him as a lowly pawn and a means to get his meat. (side theory/analysis: i think this creature is also a metaphor for us as an audience, a presence that is taking over his life, demanding to be ‘fed’ (content) and our growing insatiable hunger for more theories are taking over his life (since i’m sure crafting these theories takes a LOT of time). oh and the bottles it gives alex? perhaps a parallel to commenters and other people suggesting ideas for him to look into.) 3. Alex appears to be in a basement, which isn’t just to add to the creepy atmosphere! Generally speaking, one can’t usually leave or escape a house from a basement, you usually have to go up to the main floor to do so… but the creature is blocking off his exit, he’s literally trapped by this monster just like how he’s trapped making these spongebob videos. 4. I just wanted to point out that the obvious yellow light (in addition to the yellow clothes and other objects in later videos) clearly is meant to represent how spongebob is taking over his life. BUT what i also noticed is that the doorframe and the yellow make a YELLOW RECTANGLE, y’know LIKE SPONGEBOB! AND ITS LITERALLY LOOMING OVER ALEX LIKE SIME SORT OF OMNIPRESENCE!!! 5. oh yeah also alex is slowing being engulfed by darkness, especially when the monster is around… need i say more? Alex, my man, my dude, the level of detail and thought you put into the shots of these snippets of short films in these videos are astounding, and picking them apart is a lot of fun! great work!!!!

I think it’s strange how the SpongeBob movie had two crusty crabs and then after that there was never a second Krusty Krab ever again. Would it be possible that the entire movie was in a dream SpongeBob or Patrick had and that none this ever actually happened

[@dafilmqueen556]

Either that or Krusty Krab 2 was only a fictional location created for the movie but the in-universe producers destroyed it and then pulled a Men In Black on Bikini Bottom, erasing their memories and making them forget Krusty Krab 2 entirely. Of course, there needs to be an explanation for how that works, but that's all I can think up right now..

If you tie in both the theory and the actual lore, there's something in common. The theme of the theory is that Goofy Goobers is pulling strings on people. The current scenario in the lore is that the beast is pulling strings on Alex Bale on making spongebob theories. My best guess to the tie is that this solo theory isn't only another one made by the beast, but is also a hidden message from Alex Bale himself. Pretty much Alex Bale telling us about how he's being played and toyed like a puppet, and at some points doing things that he doesn't want to do. It's a wildcard I'm throwing upon the table, but it's decently solid.

[@Emmett_Br0wn]

Damn that makes sense

[@GhostW1thTheMost]

maybe the entire theory series is actually about what's happening to him? there are FOUR theories about fake identities, (neptune stealing poseidon's throne, which is basically his identity, mrs.puff changing her identity, squilliam pretending to be loved and famous and hiring actors to pretend to be his friends, and mr.krabs pretending to be pearl's dad) and TWO about being manipulated and controlled (this one, and the television theory). maybe he's been replaced by a clone and forced to disconnect from his family due to this monster?

The fact that he did one about Goofy Goobers being an alien death cult is very similar to Alex's character situation with his Muse. It came into his life when he was at his lowest, made him give it offerings for knowledge, even a living creature, made Alex rely on him, and changed his identity into the spongebob guy.

[@miker7920]

Bro, you totally ruined all my childhood SpongeBob memories. And for some reason I like it

[@noelleonhart]

Y'know, if you take this theory and buy into it, it honestly really explains a lot about how Spongebob would be portrayed as a character moving forward in the show's runtime. Spongebob, after his rebirth, is shown to be very different in the seasons after the movie. He's always been fun-loving and had carefree idiocy, but those traits seem to be more exaggerated in later seasons. Could this be a result of the rebirth perhaps? No longer easily giving into his other emotions because he has seen the light and he knows that his true fate is sealed. This could also be applied to Patrick as well, now a shell of his former self. Once a a slow and dopey fellow with a heart of gold, and now a braindead idiot who can be very aggressive and impulsive. I think it's very well possible that their rebirths did a number on the both of them, far greater than we'd realized until now.

And to add more fuel to the fire,this technically also kinda tackles in real life too when it comes to most celebrities. Kid/Teen Celebrities to be exact. At first,the Kid/Teen Celebrity acts all wild,carefree,and having a good time just having fun. You know,how all of us used to act like that back then when we were kids. But as the Kid/Teen Celebrity grows older and into adulthood or young adulthood,they changed for the worse: ▫️Constantly being violent and impulsive towards others ▫️Them being so rude towards their fans ▫️ Constantly getting into lots of drugs and/or sex(And possibly crime) without any form of reason ▫️While at the same time,acting completely aimless and out of their minds,feeling like they were being trapped and their childhood/teenhood was their trauma ▫️And many people would hate that their perfect childhood icon would be acting like this. So they'd either ridicule them,shame them,or in the very worse case scenario,be in total denial that it's still the same person that they saw all those years ago and get defensive(A Brittany Spears Fanboy for instance). While some Kid/Teen Celebrities managed to suffered from this,but managed to recover afterwards (Which is extremely rare nowadays),but sadly not all of them managed to recover from that darkness.

Then you decide to post a theory about, IDK a mysterious roblox account just because that one account interested you. What if that blew up and thats all people wanted to see? It would be hard to give up. Every day, people would be knocking at your hypothetical door saying "PLEASE MAKE ANOTHER ROBLOX THEORY!!11!" And it would be hard to not give in. And this is what Alex is trying to portray. If you give in, it becomes your whole fucking life. Sorry for the rant but I hate the people that ignore the story and focus on the theories themselves.

[@lovesourapple8858]

Maybe the trip they taken to get the crown for Neptune was all fake because maybe according to your theory they got inside theirs mind and tried to verify if they have been brainwashed correctly and by putting all of this hints during the trip they could 100% verify if they would understand that goofy goober wasn't an actual cult
