What I noticed about Spongebob.

Prior to the movie, Plankton was worse than Mr. Krabs, as he serves as the villain of the show. He was even more evil in the movie. Over time, the series still points at Plankton in a negative light and still respects him as the antagonist, but according to the fans, Mr. Krabs has gotten much worse. Plankton is still the antagonist, but judging by Mr. Krabs' behavior, it's safe to say that Mr. Krabs is now the real bad guy.

Haven't watched Sponegebob in a long time... When I was younger, I absolutely loved Sponegebob.

Yeah, it was good back in the golden days. Ever since the movie, it started doing worse. Looking at fan reviews, people started complaining about the show since season four (which had Squid Crane, All that Glitters, and Karate Island).

I think they had a director change at season four so that's when things went downhill.

Do you mean that Derek Drymon took over, or was there another director? I know they had new writers and Stephen Hillenburg left.

Yeah, from what I learned about Spongebob, Mr. Krabs and what he has become is the prime example of how bad Spongebob went. We also know how Spongebob got more insane than ever, Patrick is even stupider, Squidward gotten mean, and Sandy is all about science (as well as she became a fool). But Mr. Krabs was the one who suffered the worst character change over time.
 
I always look back at the old episodes and just sit down and think.
I thought that back in the old episodes squidward would stick up for spongebob from time to time and Patrick's jokes were funny, not straight up stupid. (FINLAND!)
Plankton's plans would make sense, the computer wife (her names Karen, right?) wasn't a straight up smartass and Mr. Krabs wouldn't fire spongebob over a damn nickel.

Maybe I meant writer. I don't know. One of the two.

Like I said before, as long Plankton is the main antagonist, they will continue pointing at him in a negative light no matter what. But since they made Mr. Krabs much cheaper and greedier (like when he stole a secret ingredient without even paying little), fans now think that Mr. Krabs is worse. Plankton is evil as in cartoon villains as Mr. Krabs is evil as in real life jerks. That's why people think Mr. Krabs is worse.

While he even cares over little amounts of money over more important stuff, he also won't even pay over cheap things. Of course, if he was given the opportunity to earn $1 million if he prevents anyone from dying, he would save the person from death, but that's only for the money and not the person's life. He's only guided by money, whether it's to do good or evil. I would go for morals rather than rewards, and avoid making evil choices.

Ugh I hated the Karate Island episode. I was about 6, and I "imitated" what Sandy did to break out of the cage, and my mom saw me, and told everyone to come look, and I've hated the episode since then. Brings back bad memories..
 
Hmm, back. Had a good weekend actually. Except two cats farting on me the whole film I watched on Saturday lol

Some people criticized it because of a scene of how Sandy used the blow dryer to defeat the lip monster in that episode. Just to repeat what that scene was about, when Sandy went to floor 2 in that tower, there is a lip monster. Sandy used a blow dryer to dry out her lips. When she used the lipstick to moisten the lips, they broke. This scene lead Spongebob one step closer to the dark side of animation (which also had shows like Squirrel Boy and Johnny Test, which were heavily criticized).
 
Seriously, this site has issues. When I post a quick reply, it turns out to be a double post. Is posting a broken system?

YOur internet or a glitch probably.


SO, on Thursday, a group of boys had a chat about the different video game companies. One of them said:

" Nintendo is for family, "

And I thought this ( I probably should've said it XD):

"Video games are meant to be fun, fun for everyone" - Satoru Iwata

They probably don't know who he was though :p

It's more of an internet issue. When you try making a duplicate post in the very same thread when someone hasn't posted after you yet in the span of five minutes, the forum doesn't let you make the post. So yeah, must be your internet delaying your post attempt.

But at least people understood why Karate Island was criticized, right? That was the post I was trying to make.
