Bob Esponja: La película

Intended to be the series finale of Bob Esponja (1999), the show was renewed for a fourth season due to the film's success and the show's popularity. Further episodes were told to take place before the events of this movie, but this was confirmed to be untrue by the show's cast and crew, who have claimed that the show has "never really been chronological".

In the opening sequence, Mr. Krabs says to Spongebob that the customer "took a bite of the burger, and... No cheese!", but when Spongebob goes in to help the customer, there isn't a bite taken from the burger. The opening sequence is a dream and things in dreams aren't always as described.

After the credits, the pirates are still in the movie theatre and an usher tells them that they have to leave. After the scene ends, the Paramount Pictures logo is shown.

In the Hungarian version, much of the dialogue is rendered in rhymes and includes a lot more puns and wordplays than the original.
