SpongeBob SquarePants 4-D (also known as SpongeBob SquarePants 4-D Ride, SpongeBob SquarePants: The Ride or SpongeBob SquarePants 3-D) was a 2003 cel-shaded 4-D film simulator ride based on the predecessor of the same name. It could be found at many aquariums and theme parks across the world. The ride consisted of a pre-show which then leads into a stadium seated auditorium. The ride is in 4-D, meaning it is a motion simulator with a 3D movie. The effects on the ride vary at different parks. Water spray, bubbles, wind, leg ticklers, smoke, and smells are usually found.

The ride debuted in various Paramount Parks locations in May 2003, including Kings Island on May 10, 2003.[1] The ride previously appeared at Camp Snoopy in Mall of America as a film rotation in the Mystery Mine Ride theatre. In 2006, The Funtastic World of Hanna-Barbera (renamed Yogi's Big Rescue at The Park at MOA) appeared at The Park at MOA as a film rotation in the Mystery Mine Ride theatre replacing SpongeBob SequarePants 3-D. In 2007, it was demolished to make way for the SpongeBob SquarePants Rock Bottom Plunge roller coaster, as part of the theme park's transformation into Nickelodeon Universe. In 2008, SpongeBob SquarePants 4-D premiered alongside Nickelodeon Family Suites' 4D theatre.[2] On April 19, 2013, Nickelodeon Family Suites premiered a successor titled SpongeBob SquarePants 4D: The Great Jelly Rescue. Italian, German, Turkish, and Canadian French dubs for the ride were also made.

Plot

[edit]

The film begins with Painty the Pirate about to sing the television series theme as usual, but he instead pops out of the painting and throws the riders into Bikini Bottom. The audience ends up in The Krusty Krab, where SpongeBob SquarePants welcomes them and shows them how to make a Krabby Patty (ordered by Sandals) by pointing at the ingredients with his spatula. When preparing the Krabby Patty, SpongeBob accidentally loses a pickle. The pickle then bounces out of the restaurant into Patrick Star's hand, as he rides on a pogo stick. Patrick then steals the pickle, and SpongeBob, not knowing why, tells the riders to find Patrick on his bubble bike, destroying half of Bikini Bottom. While going through Jellyfish Fields, SpongeBob plummets down the vertical road into Rock Bottom, where a fish pops the bubble bike by biting it. The force of the pop hurdles SpongeBob into the air, landing in the Chum Bucket where Plankton is holding the real Patrick hostage, revealing that the pickle thief was a robotic version of Patrick. The robot then pursues SpongeBob, only to be unplugged by Patrick (looking for an electrical outlet for his toaster). Plankton is crushed by his robot, and SpongeBob recovers the pickle. Sandals enters the Chum Bucket to eat his patty; however, he tells SpongeBob that he ordered his Krabby Patty without pickles (which Spongebob disregards) and then abruptly explodes, leaving only his head and feet. He then explains to him that he is allergic to pickles and walks away as SpongeBob quips, "Well, that was pickle-culiar!"
