The show has definitely grown on me, and I was amazed at how much I enjoyed the movie. Especially the scene where he's hungover from eating too many ice cream sundaes. It was almost scary. I was really impressed by how many different facial expressions they packed into it, and they did such a good job animating Mindy it looked as if Spumco did the work. Of course they didn't, because John Kricfalusi can't finish anything anymore (which is very sad indeed, but unfortunately the truth). I really think the Spongebob folks have taken every good aspect of the John K./Spumco cartoons and turned them into a finished, enjoyable product. It's about time!
