Trivia
Intended to be the series finale of SpongeBob SquarePants (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".

Goofs
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.

Quotes
Crowd: [Regarding King Neptune] BALD! BALD BALD! BALD! BALD!
Fish: MY EYES!

Crazy credits
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.

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

Absolute masterpiece

I can not recommend this movie enough. I may be exaggerating, but I love this movie too much. It's so aware of what it is and very enjoyable even having a good message. I recommend this to anyone even if your not a fan of the show.
