Possible New Movie

I was hesitant to post this at first, considering the lack of sources, but I guess it doesn't hurt posting it:

Los Angeles Times wrote:"Paramount has two animated movies following "Rango": Steven Spielberg's motion-capture film "The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn," set for release in December, and another "SpongeBob" picture. Studio executives say more will follow, including a possible "Rango" sequel."

I don't think so cuz I looked at the up coming movies that will be out in the future and it doesn't say a 2nd spongebob movie in december. Here is proof look at december no spongebob movie. http://www.movieinsider.com/movies/-/2011/

It didn't say it was coming in December. It was referring to another movie.

So they don't know what exact date will it come?

No. I'm guessing Summer 2012.

This seems to be in such short notice. If there was really another movie coming out this December, they probably would've announced a year ago. Besides, I've never really been a fan of the idea of a second SpongeBob movie, unless the old writers come back to make it (including Stephen Hillenburg).

News sites can sometimes get their stories mixed up, so I'm not gonna believe it just yet. We'll just have to wait and see.

I think they mean they will make just another special. Like Atlantis SquarePantis and Truth or Square.

Perhaps, but I'm pretty sure it means a movie like the 1st one from 2004.

It could be a Direct-to-DVD instead of a full-length feature film. There would be so many upset fans if they decided to make a sequel to the SpongeBob SquarePants Movie. My guess is that it's going to be an extended special that will last 1-2 hours and will premiere on Nickelodeon.

ehh..not looking foward to it

Guess I'm the only one who's excited and hopes it's in theaters, even though I'm also in the minority who didn't love the first movie.

looking forward to it

Here is an interview with Paul Tibbitt that was posted today that might shed some light on this:

Paul Tibbitt wrote:Will there ever be a second Spongebob film?
"I think that they are talking about doing that, but I haven't signed up for anything. We just feel like we've told so many stories, and Spongebob exists so well in this short 11-minute form. It is a huge challenge, and was a huge challenge, to make a 75-minute movie. I wouldn't say no, but I don't know if there will be another one."

Interview itself: http://www.digitalspy.com/british-tv/interviews/a312387/paul-tibbitt-spongebob-squarepants.html

so Paul says that he's not sure if they'll be another SB movie

interesting

Face has a good theory here. I really wouldn't mind a movie sequel in theaters, but I think direct to DVD sounds more predictable.

If this were to happen, the old writers should be hired to write the story. The movie would flop if the new writers (seasons 4 and up) wrote this new story.

^This. But seriously, the chances of a sequel aren't exactly slim. SB still has a huge fanbase that aren't serious fans like us; it could do pretty well in the box office, just off of fans who love the show. It wouldn't be a bad idea, from the producers' point of view.

If they could make a sequel to The Rugrats Movie, what would stop them from making a Spongebob sequel? I can definitely see it hitting theaters.

Don't forget that counting the "Rugrats/Wild Thornberries" crossover movie, the "Rugrats" had three movies in theaters in total. So the idea of "Spongebob Squarepants" having a second movie in theaters isn't TOO much of an outlandish idea.

^ This.

Come on, not all episodes of the newer seasons were terrible. I'm sure the writers would do their best work to make a movie.

I'm actually looking forward to a possible sequel, as SpongeBob would say.... "I can hardly wait to see our favourite heroes, ON THE BIG SCREEN!"

As long as it's good, I wouldn't mind another movie.

I have doubts about the possibility of their being another feature length film. Though I don't see why it's not possible. If Rugrats could afford 3, why can't the even bigger SpongeBob afford 2?

Do I like the idea? Kind of... but I'm not totally sure. I do believe they could make a good one, but it could also not go too well. The first movie is a tough act to follow! I also don't know how they'd do the plot.

If they do have a second movie, it should end the series.

Well, technically the first movie is the end of Spongebob, taking place after the entire series itself.

Yes, but they could still have a second movie to follow up on the first one. And if they do that, I don't think there should be any more episodes.

Oh, really? I didn't the movie was placed in there chronologically.

The creator said it. Plus, it makes sense, doesn't it? It can't come before any episode without majorly contradicting.

Also, it's the perfect ending to the franchise.

If you've watched the movie it's pretty obvious.

i would love a second movie to be in theaters a sequel to the first one, but i do agree that they need to hire the old writers back to write the story. and i also agree that if they make it, it should be the end of the series because that would be a great ending and a great place to stop. spongebob was originally supposed to end after the first movie, but i assume that the decision to continue on with the show was because the movie was such a huge success and made a lot of money.
