It makes me sad you feel you have to say you're a S2 apologist! There's nothing to apologise for imo, S2 was awesome, I loved it.
don't worry, i use "apologist" in loose terms, cause i definitely don't apologise for it. i love season 2 and think it's a spectacular season of television. it makes me go nuts.

Hey, can I just say how much that 55 minute-long review of Sponge on the Run on YouTube angers me? The reviewer is so incredibly nitpicky and points out every single small aspect of the movie that doesn’t even impact the viewing experience in a negative way. :(
Nah but I feel this. I don't mind a lot of the criticism towards Sponge on the Run. I love that movie but its a bit of the weakest of the 3. Probably from all the rewrites it's been through.
The movie isn't except from criticism and I feel like a lot of the flaws that others have pointed out are fair. They just aren't so bad as people make them out to be but everyone's got a different opinion.
But you have to aknowlege that a lot of the harsher criticisms towards the movie is mostly because of other things *cough*kamp koral*cough* and people believing this ruins the legacy of spongebob. People really went too far. I'm biased too since I'm the spongebob connoisseur, I think that's obvious enough but I'm stupid so don't mind me 👌 I still think some people went ham to hate for this movie.
I've seen some people acting like cinemasins and pointing out the basic stuff of any film and treat it like it's a cardinal sin because it's sponge on the run. A lot of them think Hillenburg wasn't involved with this movie at all and that they made this movie behind his back. Bro this movie was in production since shortly after the 2nd movie came out???? I literally was keeping watch on this movie since they announced production. Which was literally a few weeks after the 2nd movie. He literally pitched the plot of what became the final movie. I hate discussing this with people. They think I'm saying they have to like it or that I'm a movie defender. Just stating the facts gets people so mad. Idk what to do.
I don't like even talking about this since it's not worth my energy. Nobody has to like it. I find it understandable why some people don't like it. But some people don't behave when it comes to things like this. Some people who never cared about SB for the past 10+ years suddenly acting like they're the god of justice protecting the legacy of spongebob for a movie they don't like,,,,,
I know there's a lot of misinformation from kamp koral and stuff but it's getting out of hand when it causes actual problems. Like people sending death threats and stuff on the regular. I'm getting off topic here tho. Some people are weirdly petty about this.
I remember the dude who made the video talking about his thoughts on sponge out of water and his thoughts boiled down to "if you like this movie then you should feel bad about it" and he later talked about sponge on the run talking about how its the worst thing possible and that at least sponge out of water had some qualities.
It's a lot easier to admit you don't like something just because you don't rather than to make up weird reasons and nitpick to feel superior about it. Spongebob has and always have been obscure. Nitpicking it for being too obscure is pretty dumb especially if you're praising the classic era or movie for doing the same thing. Acting like your defending the legacy of the show while ignoring what the og crew even said about it and following a bunch of misinformation is dumb.
My thoughts are a bit jumbled. This has been sitting in my ask box for a while because I'm exhausted from the negativity lately and having to constantly clarify and discuss about this is draining. But I do think a lot about this. I thought it was fine and I didn't mind. I knew it would get a lot of hate from the misinformation and this reaction would be expected because if I know anything about the internet. People can't dislike things normally. But I just don't want to deal with it now.
