How Promising is Sponge Out of Water?

Hey, if she has more than 4 words it will already be more than she had in the first movie. <.<

Positives
- Kung Fu Panda writers writing it
- time travel thing (they better did a Doctor Who reference)
- All main characterd being in the movie
- Steve and Paul
Negatives
- The premise (everyone becoming superheros and a bad guy stealing a krabby patty? So uncreative and that ruins my exceptions of the movie)
- CGI
- Live action parts
 
- time travel thing (they better did a Doctor Who reference)

I'd rather they didn't. I don't watch Doctor Who, but I love the Back to the Future series and still wouldn't want them to do a too obvious reference to that. I don't feel like pop-culture jokes work in SpongeBob outside of the very rare instance of something like Davy Jones's locker in SpongeBob vs. The Big One.
 
What I'm worried about:
  • Chipmunks writers and director.
  • CGI. Why why why. Maybe I will get over it but at the moment I'm still sulking. It doesn't make sense. They came out of the water in the first one and looked great animated normally.
  • I don't like the first poster.
  • The title is too long and sounds kind of stupid.
What I'm happy about:
  • Tibbitt and Hillenburg wrote the story.
  • Unofficially released artwork all looks great.
  • Clancy Brown says it's very funny.
  • Mostly traditional animation.
  • Sherm Cohen.
Some of the positive things also make me nervous though. If this movie isn't good, the excuse that Hillenburg had no input isn't going to fly any more because as far as we can tell this is the most involved he's been in a SpongeBob project for years. It's nowhere near the whole old-school gang being back together, but there are a sufficient number of old faces, and highly talented new ones, to preclude this movie from being written off as Typical Post-Movie Disappointment if it doesn't deliver.

He's directing the animated parts and Mike Mitchell directed the live-action parts.
makes me wonder it's going to be mixed reviews once movie comes out.
 
I hope Sandy's fur actually looks like fur than CGI. But what are you gonna do, it's a cartoon. :dunno: Maybe Sandy is controlling these superheroes with something like an invention or maybe she trained them to be all muscles? (Have they even told us how they get these powers?)

Actually, I hope they follow the logic of the show and she's an realistic squirrel out of water. (Although, I hate the Alvin and the Chipmunks CG look with a passion so I hope if they do do it, it's a realistic doll or an actual squirrel if they can get one to do what they want.) Not sure what she'd look like if she becomes a superhero too, though.

It would be funny if they made her a real squirrel like in those deleted scenes from the first movie.

So, do they got their power from self-mutilation or by rocking out?
They get them by rocking out to a song about mutilation:
