SPONGEBOB CONSPIRACY #6: The Goofy Goober Alien Death Cult Theory

[@leiamartha7554]

The only other restaurant that made their customers wear hats and stuff was Plankton when he started selling Krabby Patties, and HIS goal was to LITERALLY mind control and enslave his customers.

Ok but now im questioning that episode where Patrick mistook strangers for his parents - that means both his sister AND him have wound up so separated from their origins that they dont recognise their own family. I havent seen an episode of the spin off but it makes me inagine their parents wondering what the heck happened to their kids. It also makes me wonder if Patrick was vulnerable enough to get affected by the cult tactics before but stupid and unpredictable enough to wind up getting out without ever knowing he was in danger but still very confused...or...maybe hes not out at all? Its just occured to me that we have no idea how someone as thoughtless as Patrick with no sign of a regular job manages to keep a house and afford anything 😅

[@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!!!!

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.

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.

[@redstonemecha7716]

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. Like in the end of the video it usually said Alex Bale, now it says the spongebob guy.

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.

also you can say that spongebob becoming the goofy goober wizard could relate to cults as well. ascension being key things in some cults (ascensionism, heaven's gate, etc). most importantly in some of them, have certain events to display their powers and gift. Like idk a whole ritual or even song they sing to set one's soul free and have them ascend too. doesn't that sound familiar? we see that happen in the movie, and after the fight it was revealed to be fake. so could the last fight be just a whole stunt to get people invested in the cult, though they were lucky it actually worked? could it be that spongebob rose the ranks in the cult, and having ties with them and have access to this sort of "power"?

[@downysgarbagebin5105]

even the lyrics to goofy goober rock are cultish. starts with the original song/mantra. "Put your toys away. Well, then I got to say when you tell me not to play" - talking about not listening to authorities. "...When you say I'm a kid. I say, say it again. And then I say thanks" - embracing being a goofy goober. "...you'd like to be like me. Go ahead and try, the kid inside will set you free." - you will ascend, if you join us. then ends with the original song/mantra.

Okay, if there are going to be seven theories then it must mean something. I believe the seven theories represents the seven deadly sins. The first was envy because it was about the rivalry with Squidward and Squilliam. The second was about pride because the people were using Bikini Bottom as a TV show. The third is wrath because the warden wanted revenge on Mrs. Puff and tortures her. The fourth could possibly be either greed because of the krabby patty. The fifth could be lust because lust can also mean a feeling a strong desire for something and Poseidon seems to want to look good. And the sixth could be gluttony, because the Goofy Goobers company is using ice cream to manipulate the people of Bikini Bottom to make them join the cult. I only sin that is left and could probably relate to the seventh, and possibly the final theory, is sloth. It either has to do with laziness or something that has to do with slow. ...Or I could just be losing my mind because of these conspiracy theories.

[@FNaF_Fun_Boi]

Imagine when SpongeBob becomes part of the public domain someone makes a goofy goober horror movie about a guy in the peanut costume murdering people or kidnapping them for his cult the trailer could be the theme song “I’m a goofy goober (AHHHHH) your a goofy goober (AHHHH) we’re all goofy goobers”

I love how you don't even have to know about the ARG to enjoy the videos, because they're genuinely good theories

Knowing that this is all part of an arg and the horror makes the theories a little less enjoyable to me. I enjoyed them more before that.

Its very smart what he does. Alex likes making horror shorts. So since he broke out with spongebob he embraced it and still mixed some horror short into the sponge of theories. What a genius

I love the little horror segments you do at the end of each theory. It’s fun to get a little mystery at the end of something solved. Gives it even more excitement to watch the next theory video. Can’t wait to see what you have in store for the next theory video!!

[@TamunaTsertsvadze]

Tbh, I'm also watching his SpongeBob theories for those little horror snippets now. I'm generally not into horror genre because it scares the hell out of me, but the short ones like this are supportable, hence entertaining xD

Also Caretaker style music really ties the whole thing together given how Spongebob uses stock music catalogues from similar eras.

As a longtime Alex fan, I wasn’t the biggest supporter of these theories, but I figured if he wanted to make them, that’s awesome and he should do that. I just felt it was slightly out of place. But now... Things are getting a lot more interesting. Keep up the incredible content, Alex.

[@eazyplayz3510]

I don’t think he really wants to keep making Spongebob theories he said he wants to keep making horror shorts but people are yelling at him to do it and even insulting his work…his HARD work

@@eazyplayz3510 In the Neptune video, it feels very obvious that he wants to be done with the theories. He even sighs when he realizes that there’s more to the theory that needs to be covered. However, here, he seems totally fine by it. He doesn’t seem annoyed or “enslaved” when narrating this video. I don’t know. I just thought it was something interesting to point out.

@@pepearown4968 I’m pretty sure he is incorporating his passion for making films into these theories and making this incredible hidden lore. I just found out about it today.

I just find it wild that so many people that watch these videos don’t know that they’re also watching an arg unfold. I’m going to bet that once this project is finished Alex is going to still get comments on his next project asking for more spongebob theories, which will be sad since most people didn’t get the overall message he was trying to convey. But props to Alex, I can see this guy becoming a titan in the film industry

All you need to know for the parts that we know are connected right now. There are 4 separate parts that are running concurrently and have ties to each other. Alex Bale is the main hub of the story with us seeing bits of the horror surrounding his spongebob theories, Happy Meat farms seems to be the main antagonist for their genetic splicing of animals (and possibly people) and the escape of one of these monsters, The Cynical Critic is one of the people that tells Alex to quit his directing careers to make spongebob theories but he too is being attacked by the monster while having more going on, and Sonic the Blue Rat…. Idk man it’s important but I it ties in more with the Cynical Critic
