The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water (2015) Live Movie

Plot: Burger-Beard is a pirate in search of the final page of a magical book that makes any evil plan he writes in it come true, which happens to be the krabby patty secret formula. When his search is completed and

 the formula is missing, the entire city of Bikini Bottom is in danger. SpongeBob, Patrick, and the gang need to go on a quest that takes them to the surface. In order to get back the recipe and save their city, the

gang must retrieve the book and transform themselves into superheroes to fight Burger-Beard and his super villain pirate crew.

The upcoming SpongeBob SquarePants feature film, The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water has released a special holiday video for its fans.

In the video, SpongeBob and his best friend, Patrick the Star, get into the Christmas spirit by decorating a tree. Naturally, Patrick makes for the perfect tree topper. It’s just too bad that the tree’s lighting had to short out, giving Patrick a much brighter Christmas than he bargained for.

The brief video uses the same CGI animation style that will be used in the upcoming feature-length film. In The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water, SpongeBob and his friends leave their underwater world for the first time. When they arrive on dry land, 

which was shot in live-action, they transform into computer generated cartoons from their typical two-dimensional style of animation. Sponge Out of Water will mark SpongeBob’s second theatrical appearance, after 2004's The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie. However, that film was made entirely in the classic two-dimensional animation style.
