What you alluded to saying, "People today are still bonding over Classic Spongebob".

No matter how talented the artists may be, ultimately, it's the higher-ups who have the final say. Take Disney's Wish, for example. It had the potential to be a good, even great film to celebrate Disney's 100th anniversary. However, the higher-ups botched everything up.
