Synopsis
By this time, you either like this guy or you don’t. There is a lot of fun goofiness here, butthere are also some ill-advised live-action additions (such as in “House Party” and “I Had anAccident”), which are just plain painful.
Audio
The 2.0 sound is crisp, clear, distortion-free and fun. The surround effect is pretty muchlimited to the music, but it’s pretty constant.
Video
As with the other SpongeBob DVDs, the picture is …eautiful: superbly crisp and with coloursso brilliant you’re almost blinded. A model for transferring TV material.
Special Features
As with all but the Nautical Nonsense release, the extras are minimal: an “Underwater Sun”video by the Bird Brains, a 2-minute interview with a background artist, the “House Party”storyboards in montage with dialogue but no music or effects, and a Nickelodeon trailer. Themenu’s main page is animated and scored. The menu generally is a so busy in its look that it isa bit hard to navigate.
Closing Thoughts
Oh, come on. If you’re reading this, you’ve seen the other SpongeBobs. Are you going topass this up? I don’t think so.
