Previously, SpongeBob made his way to the big screen in 2004’s “The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie”. Last month, it was announced that a new SpongeBob movie is in the works – in 3D!
The new movie, produced by Nickelodeon & Paramount pictures, “The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie: Sponge Out Of Water”, will feature SpongeBob getting out of the ocean for his most super-heroic adventure yet. While you can expect the animated adventure to be just another long-form episode of the show, the makers have got a few tricks up their sleeves for this one.
For starters, in this movie, the animated sections will be in 3D, blending both CGI and hand-drawn techniques. There will also be some live action scenes which will be folded into the animated stuff. Think cartoon and real life worlds colliding.
And that’s not all.
In true Comic Con fashion, the Paramount Pictures 2014 San Diego Comic Con panel gave ample opportunities for the makers to unveil a first look at “The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie: Sponge Out Of Water”. Check out the characters in the real world:
They do look different now, don’t they? What do you guys think of Patrick, SpongeBob, Squidward, and Mr. Krabs in their redesigned style? Let us know in the comments.
