[@liamdude5722]

Actually, Burger Beard's backstory is given in a deleted scene. He actually always wanted to be a fry cook, but his Father forced him to be a pirate. That's why he needed the formula, since he never learned how to cook before.

The worst part was the trailer said it would only focus on SpongeBob in the real world while most of it is SpongeBob and Plankton time traveling to find the formula.

[@SoshiTheYoshi]

but I agree that it's a GOOD movie.

[@adampkalb]

The trailer did say "To save their world, they'll have to come to ours." but never said that was the "only" thing Spongebob would do. The trailer did a good job of masking the other big plot elements before that point.

[@shamaboy11]

After this movie. The newer episode got better because the creator of the show returned to write this movie and being executive producer on season 9 and onward. I hope the Third movie takes place after the first movie and having a proper ending to the show for the 20th anniversary.

[@shamaboy11]

It wasn't confirmed. But i hope it ends

[@steveross2868]

I found it quite odd that the third film is just going to ve called "The SpongeBob Movie" and nothing more. It has me wondering what it will be about.

[@booklover4330]

Even though the show is getting better, or is better I do hope that it ends soon. Because before too long the series will end up getting bad again, it would be better ending it soon that way people will have good memories of it.

I seen this movie, and it was surprisingly good. It seems that ever since Stephen Hillensberg came back to produce the show, it's gotten much better these days, and while there are still some weak episode of this season, it's still outweighed by the good episodes, and at least the characters have finally gotten de-flanderized. One of the few cartoons that experienced seasonal rot and was finally able to get back on its feet.

The movie will be an original story about how SpongeBob first met friends Patrick and Squidward at Camp Coral, a summer camp. This movie will be fully CG animated, and will once again involve the characters going into the live action world.

[@GuyNamedCrystal]

I honestly really liked the movie up until the final act. From there, it reminded me of all the worst parts about live-action cartoon adaptations like The Smurfs or Alvin and the Chipmunks. It also doesn't really help that I found the seagulls really annoying and Antonio Banderas' character really bland.

[@billybarnett9518]

I actually liked the first Chipmunks, Film Brain and Todd in the Shadows did too.

A Guy Named Crystal the character models in the third act of the film is very stylized since every live action and animation fail to give the 3D animated character stylized designs but the Spongebob movie 2 finally done it since it's like 2d characters in a 3d world type of vibe

In my opinion I give the movie 7.5/10 The first movie was better but I still love the gags and the visuals, I believe the CGI should've been used more like in Bubbles UFO. The 3rd act was great with the action scene and the gags on the beach, but the only complaint I have with this act 3 is that all of plankton's character development was just wasted he just went back to normal, and they should've gave burger beard a back story

[@brycefourn2001]

I personally enjoyed this movie. It was a nice return to form for SB. I remember getting hyped for it because of Stephen Hillenburg's return. :)

You know, on the taco house, I think that it was a reference to "Welcome to the Chum Bucket," where in that episode, SpongeBob said that he was in the mood for tacos. Of course, it could also be referring to "SpongeBob, You're Fired," as there was a Mexican food restaurant in that excuse for an episode.

[@toon4thought]

Honestly, what bugs me about how they introduced Spongebob and company here is that you can very much tell the "Thank Gosh It's Monday" song was originally meant to serve that purpose, and it does that so much better. Why didn't they keep that in?

But no, he's just Some Random Pirate Dude.

[@jtothepmoreno1010]

It's kinda sad to see that all of plankton's character development is thrown out the window and it just amounts to him becoming completely evil in the first movie. (Since sponge out of water is a prequel)

[@DarkkirbyKRPG]

I love both Spongebob movies, but I certainly prefer the first one. The first one's story was one of self-finding and going over a character arc that could be argued goes back to the very beginning of the series: The childish nature of Spongebob's character. At first he attempts to deny it and even feels ashamed of it, but through his journey with Patrick, he realizes that said childish nature is who he truly is, and learns to embrace it while also learning that just because he's childish, doesn't mean he can't also be responsable, mature and get the job done. Patrick sort of also has one, but it doesn't really conclude in any way, besides the same conclusion Spongebob reaches at the end, just not mentioning it. It's a fantastic animated film that makes me not only laugh but also really enjoy the character arcs. Sponge Out of Water is also a fantastic movie, but I feel that certain parts kind of drag the movie down enough for me to prefer the first movie, like the mentioned time machine issues in your review. Still, the interactions between Spongebob and Plankton as well as seeing Bikini Bottom in a different, Mad Max-esque light are phenomenal, specially since these scenarios are mostly new for the characters. The villain is a bit weak, I agree, and the Superheroes do come out of nowhere (in fact, when I saw the "The Spongers" promotional poster, I feared that the movie would be seasons 6-8 quality of awful) but the action sequences and overall funny tone of the movie makes it easy to overlook said issues.

[@Fallingwithstyle1995]

Having also poured my soul into making a looong video review of this movie, I watched it a ton of times. And I think we see eye to eye on a lot of its pros and cons, with some exceptions. For example, I actually enjoyed the surreal nature of tangents like the Bubbles the Dolphin scene and Plankton in SpongeBob's brain (the rainbow Plankton vomits referring to him as his father is lovely). I think they definitely go further with the strangeness than the original seasons often did, but in a way that makes a 15+year old franchise feel surprising and fresh. They were definitely tangents, but in a charming, SpongeBob-esque way. It was the live action scenes that I felt were often more starkly disconnected and pointless than anything else in the film, not because of the animation medium change, but due to the departure from the SpongeBob and Plankton storyline. Why throughout the majority of Act 3 is Plankton, who they've built up as one of the film's two leads, placed in SpongeBob's sock, and given brief moments to pointlessly mislead you into thinking he's an antagonist again? Not only would I'd much rather have seen Plankton having to work with the other characters THROUGHOUT Act 3, I think that's just the way the story was going, especially given the narrative of teamwork. And it'd be extremely new and satisfying to see Plankton working not just alongside SpongeBob, but the rest of the principal cast. But on the whole, I really agree with you that the movie is good. It has lots of funny moments, the 2D animation is gorgeous, the stakes are engagingly high, the difference in ideology between SpongeBob and Plankton makes for a great dynamic, and perhaps best of all, the characters feel like themselves again, which just adds this enriching sense of authenticity to the proceedings. I personally prefer the first film since it really explores the character of SpongeBob and his placement between childhood and adulthood in a very interesting, adventurous, funny, and large-scale way. I think the original film was more focused on emotion whereas this one is more about entertaining the viewer on a moment-to-moment basis, which also absolutely has its merit. So I'm glad both exist, and geez, I don't know about you, but I'm BEYOND curious to see where they go with the third one.

[@Silver01Son]

I like how you split the review into acts.

[@danofthehour4119]

I think that the Burgerbeard plotline underwent a massive rewrite during production, to the point that it just barely resembles what it was originally intended to be. If you look back at the early trailers the plot was going to be; Burgerbeard steals the secret formula because it was written on the last page of his magical book, and in order to make the books magic work he needs to restore the page to the book. I would've preferred if movie used this storyline instead

[@ethansprague2005]

Nice video. I love these videos and you honestly are the best critic on youtube

[@proudlilgiraffe1617]

I agree that this movie was better than the 2004 SpongeBob movie. It had better use of characters that really dont get spotlight. The 2004 movie didn't really make the characters do much and it kind of pisses me off

[@adampkalb]

I am so glad to see someone else in the comments section who noticed that obvious improvement in Sponge Out of Water.

[@skibot9974]

I completely understand you don’t wish to do the every episode of Spongebob anymore but I’d love to hear your thoughts on the third film

[@adampkalb]

While the trailer for Sponge Out of Water spoiled a lot of what happened in the CG live-action scenes, it also did a good job of subverting our expectations by keeping most of what happens in the hand-drawn majority of the film a surprise. The story focuses more on Spongebob traveling above water than the first movie and any previous episodes did, but much of the movie is also about the journey of events before the Spongebob characters realize they need to go to the surface world to get the secret formula back.

Now I have the idea of Spongebob singing "Everything is Awesome" stuck in my head

[@giovanniorellana2200]

This will be the best 35 minutes of my day!

[@rhodrimayer3127]

My feelings were mixed. On one hand it was a really fun movie with many great gags and characters that I have become invested in for many year, yet on the other hand it doesn't follow a single - straight forward - story-arc. It jumps from the secret formula disappearing and the post apocalyptic theme, to a spongebob and plankton buddy-comedy, to a weird superhero fight at the end. Oddly enough, my favourite part of the whole film was the time travel sequences. The "Squeeze Me" song is catchy as the animation was visually pleasing. I just feel, had they stuck to one element of the story and developed it a little further, this could have been a fantastic movie. However, it's been interesting hearing your constructive criticism and saying that you enjoyed this film more so than the first. You're the first critic I've come across to say this but it's refreshing. You stray away from the obvious arguments and give a new idea on something. I really enjoy watching your spongebob, and general, reviews because of your critical and nostalgic balance. It has helped me to shape the way I critique things.

[@astrologywithwidward315]

The first movie was very nostalgic to me but I still think this is better then the first movie because 6/7 out of the characters actually do something compared to the first which was 4/7 and I don't get the whole being a kid thing when clearly spongebob and Patrick are way bigger then any of the other fry ( which means younger fish for people who don't what that means) in the show

[@cheesypasta-salad4472]

[@darkmagicianscousin5261]

[@RidleyKraid187]

The best way I can describe the difference between this and the first one? The SpongeBob Movie was a movie. Sponge out of Water was a really long SpongeBob episode. Sure, the SpongeBob Movie was really cinematic and somewhat epic, but it was lacking in comedy in a lot of places, and felt needlessly darker and grimmer than it needed to be: Characters are swearing (even if it's only once or twice), SpongeBob and Patrick die, Mr. Krabs is threatened with death, Neptune is constantly threatening to kill people, there's a lot of scenes that take place in visually dark settings, and Plankton goes from being a comedic villain trying to steal the formula to an evil dictator trying to take over the world using mind control and whatnot. In the series proper, all Plankton wants is to be more successful than Mr. Krabs. He's not trying to take over the world, and while he does talk about domination, he never actively pursues anything more evil than petty theft most of the time. And honestly, could you picture Dennis showing up in a normal SpongeBob episode? He's not a comedic murderer like the Strangler; he's taken very, very seriously. Sponge out of Water has a MUCH lighter tone. Yes, there's the apocalypse, but the lead-in to that plot point was more of a joke than anything actually serious, and nothing actually happening in the apocalypse (aside from trying to sacrifice SpongeBob and holding Karen hostage) was taken very seriously. Not all of the jokes in the movie stick, no, but it at least feels like they're trying to go for a comedic approach to this movie, wheras the first one, it feels like they're trying to go for a serious story, which may work well for other shows, but for a comedic show like SpongeBob, it's best to go for a lighter tone and a more comedic story than something grand and epic.

[@adampkalb]

I also like Sponge Out of Water better than The Spongebob Squarepants Movie because it has better use of the main show's familiar characters and settings instead of being another animated road trip movie, and finds creative ways to blend four different styles of animation and remembers to credit all four teams of animators. It also gives us a far more interesting storyline about the main characters traveling out of water than Pressure and Rodeo Daze.

[@brianlevine871]

It's been a while since I've seen this film, but I definitely remember enjoying it, in spite its flaws. Though I personally found the first film a little better, mainly because the story was more cohesive. That one also felt like an actual movie, whereas "Sponge Out of Water" kind of felt more like three random episodes that somehow got strung together. But again, it was still fun and even felt like a taste of older Nickelodeon, especially with that song from the time travel scene. Your critiques for this movie were also really good, especially on improving Burger Beard's character and tying in the superhero stuff.

[@avisreviews5471]

To be honest, I disagree. I thought this movie was just "okay", but definitely on the upper side of okay. The movie kind of felt like a rough draft and needed to be developed a lot more. There's a lot of things that are unexplained and random (the book, the super heroes, etc.) and felt like they need a lot more explanation/foreshadowing. This movie has good concepts, but the execution was fairly flawed. Again, it's not a bad movie. I think it's just alright. But I can see why a lot of people would like it.

[@billybarnett9518]

It got more psotive reviews from critics than the first, there seems to be a disconnect there.

[@Bionicleforever]

At least the entire way they resolved the problem wasn't unexplained -_- I'm sure if you think about the plot too much you can say "hey this doesn't make sense!" but this isn't the movie that needs a tightly woven script. The fact that it was able to use most of the characters, had more original and funny jokes and original jokes(instead of haha their naked) , as well as have you know a proper ending instead of the entirely random song that saved the day for no apparent reason. Makes it a better *SPONGEBOB* film than the first (imo) (you could say that I'm worrying too much about the ending but ....its the ending... when the ending makes no sense you feel like you've been cheated of the entire film)

[@steveross2868]

Avis Reviews The reason why this movie is more random than the previous film is because, unlike the first one that was more like an adaption of the TV show, this one is more so a surrealistic comedy that is it's own thing.

[@avisreviews5471]

+NEW VIDS IN NEXT 1-2 MONTHS. I think you're worrying about the first movie too much in general instead of just the ending No matter how much you don't like the first movie, how does that make up for the second movie? The second movie is it's own thing, and just because another movie is worse in your opinion shouldn't sway your opinion. I mean, if we were going by that logic, that means almost every single movie is good just because Foodfight is bad.

[@Bionicleforever]

I would actually say this is a better adaption of the tv show than the first with this feeling more like an extended spongebob episode while the first felt more "serious" and "edgy" and more beat for beat a regular normal movie... unlike the show...

[@InfinitySor625]

Gotta admit, kinda surprised you liked this one more than the first one as when I watched this movie, I felt the opposite. The Original SB Movie is a much stronger piece story and character wise while the sequel...prequel...the 2nd movie had it's moments but fell flat with some important elements i.e. the Villain and had a lot of scenes that just felt random and out of place. Different strokes I guess.

Also, I'm not criticizing you, but I find it odd you didn't look at this movie from a regular movie perspective and a spongebob fan perspective like you did with your spongebob movie 1 review ..... Another being that you went through the whole plot of this movie but not for the first movie. I hope you can do some sort of comparison between the two someday in a future video

[@MisUnderstood_Rose]

A whole team being required to beat Burger Beard is reasonable considering how powerful he is, at least I think it is.

[@billcipher2604]

I love this movie but i always sort of lose interest when they leave the ocean. My favourite thing of this movie is all the interactions of Spongebob and Plankton and the amount of character development from the two of them, with also the fact that Plankton is a great straightman for Spongebob's comedy. Sadly, that was simply gone when they got in the human world and all the characters that now became important to the movie were just there and nothing compared to Plankton. Also, the 2D animation was really really good and that magic got lost when things got 3D, becoming more of an stereotype of what a Spongebob movie would be. I still love it but i wish things had never left Bikini Bottom, the stakes were high enough already.

[@billcipher2604]

The 3D segments are really good on their own right, but it feels like it belongs to a different Spongebob movie with two acts that fit more.

[@okinachan2123]

I liked the movie, though the trailer made it seem like there would be more "out of the water" scenes rather than underwater, but the actual movie was the other way around.

[@mr.roboto9210]

You brought up an interesting point at the end. Maybe you could make a video talking about the disappearance of traditional animation in film in the last 10 years?

[@friedsoap9681]

Unrelated to the video but have you been watching the new Samurai Jack season and will you be giving your thoughts on it? I personally am loving it so far and would love to hear your own opinion once it concludes!

[@audreytheausllyologist502]

I like SpongeBob but I think it's about time the show ended. It's been on for just too long.

[@audreytheausllyologist502]

Oh how on earth could I forget FOP? I like that show as well but it needs to end

[@Schnickelo]

I especially agree with Fairly Odd Parents. I personally think that show's seasonal rot is WAY worse than SpongeBob's.

[@trxpn3rd]

Schnickelo you read my mind

[@Justin213-f2y]

Honestly iʻve been thinking the same thing for over 12 years. The show was originally going to be ended by the creator after the first movie because he was leaving it for some apparent reason that i donʻt remember but the sponge had risen to success and Nickelodeon starting bleeding the show out to become a cash cow. Popularity keeps the show alive and i do realize that many people want the show to die but honestly iʻm neutral. Yes, the obvious drop in quality made me lose a bit of respect for the show after the creator left but as of now its kinda the only positive show currently on Nick. There was Harvey Beaks but they screwed that up and i know pretty much everyone loves Loud House except me. When the sponge dies, so does Nick well at least thats what i think because they really donʻt have enough support to hold them up. Then again thats me sorry if i wasted your time with this comment but this show has always had a special place in my heart and no other long running can top it with the exception of South Park

[@audreytheausllyologist502]

Uncle Grandpa Hey it's cool we all have our opinions

[@alex_raine_]

Thanks for making new vids plz do more often. I have watch through hours of your old reviews and I would love to see your review on the rest of season 9 of spongebob as well as some first impression reviews of some other shows like maybe Star vs the forces of evil or the amazing world of gumball ( I am not sure if you have before ) Also Cartoon Network is coming out with new shows that I don't think are going to be too good and I was curious what you may think? Sorry if I made any typos I am one of the younger viewers of your channel I think

[@Fiddl3head]

+PIEGUYRULZ What do you think of the bizarre animation sequences during the time travel scenes? I personally really enjoyed them, because the beautiful animation is highlighted in a spectacular way.

[@joshthecritique]

Nice video and I was wondering when you will post the season 9b review

[@RoninCatholic]

Plankton! You knew I'd never distrust a dollar!

[@GlossyCandle]

After hearing this review, I was surprised to hear how much 2D animation was in this movie. I've only seen the trailers, and from them, I figured about 70% was CGI/live-action.

[@EmmyJoy]

It is really neat watching you review a movie in this way! Picturing the scenes as you describe them is really fun for some reason! Also your criticism makes a lot of sense. Honestly still have not actually seen the movie. I'm getting worse and worse at actually watching stuff as my life goes on. Haha! Probably won't like this movie as much as the first because the first is incredibly nostalgic for me. It seems like this one is a better movie though. Although the rap battle sounds like a horrible idea... Wow.

[@PatrickBoy412]

Thx for the bday present m8

[@j_6469]

I thought the movie was...fine. I don't think it's as good as the first movie, it didn't have the same heart and comedy as the first. However, I do think this was pretty enjoyable, like a pleasurable time waster.

[@blaa6]

I like both films. Plus, the video games of the first movie were awesome.

[@pongodecky]

The only reason I believe people think the first movie is better is because of the Nostalgia Power it had.

[@cuckinabag2002]

I hope the "All episodes of Spongebob Season 9B Reviewed" comes soon **hinthint PieGuy** XD

[@TodoDekuOTP]

Do you predict that the third movie will be the long overdue conclusion of the series as a whole? I'm hopeful for that outcome.

[@runningoncylinders3829]

I like the first movie more because I think it flowed better. Overall it was a better story about SB growing up; clear hero's journey. The second film had moments that could've been handled better or elaborated on, and it felt a little disjointed/random at times. Basically it's like picking your favorite fruit (mine's pineapple :P) which movie you prefer! At least both had funny moments. We have the one that's like a single ep. plot stretched into a film and the other that has 3 very distinct acts. I find it interesting.

[@youdontknowsponge6218]

In my opinion the second movie feels like Seasons 1-4 and the first movie feels like Season 5.

[@Ashman-sw3be]

agreed!

[@tonygunk8157]

plankton basically kills Karen in this movie

[@Mart8ndoStudios]

There are only 4 Theatrical Movies with traditional animation in this decade (2011-2019): Winnie the Pooh (2011) Sponge out of water (2015) My Little Pony (2017) SpongeBob 3 (2019)

[@alfa01spotivo]

And Teen Titans Go to the Movies

I sorta wish that we got a recap analysis on seasons 4 - 9 like we got for seasons 1 - 3 with your review of movie 1.
