Continuity mistake: When SpongeBob says he should sacrifice himself, the squidosaurs Rex has Mr. Krabs in his hands, but when SpongeBob walks to the counter, Mr. Krabs is right next to Squidward. When the camera zooms in on a group of citizens and Squidward, Mr. Krabs is gone. Then, another shot of the squidosaurs Rex, Mr. Krabs is in his hands again.
The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water (2015)
Directed by: Mike Mitchell, Paul Tibbitt
Starring: Antonio Banderas, Clancy Brown, Thomas F. Wilson, Eric Bauza, Tim Conway, Eddie Deezen
Continuity mistake: When Squidward scares the people off, some of the burgers they drop disappear and change position.
Continuity mistake: During the sequence of plankton about to steal the krabby patty formula, there's a ship in a bottle on Mr. Krabs desk. When SpongeBob arrives with a vacuum, it's gone.
Trivia: The two surfer dudes eating Krabby Patties after Spongebob and his friends appear, are Lloyd Ahlquist and Peter Shukoff, the creators of the internet series "Epic Rap Battles of History." They were also the writers and performers of the rap battle before the credits.
Trivia: Most of the names on the check-out card in the book are actual fictional characters or real people, most being pirates. There's Davey Jones, Bluebeard, Blackbeard, Captain Kidd, and Frank Beard. Frank Beard is a member of ZZ Top and incidentally the only member without a beard. (00:03:35)
Trivia: The two popsicle sisters holding hands are a reference to "The Shining"
Fish: Alright, all secondary characters, come with me.
SpongeBob SquarePants: If we're gonna be on the same team.
Plankton: Maybe I don't wanna be on the te-am! You think of that?
SpongeBob SquarePants: But Plankton everything's best when your part of a team.
Patrick Star: I can't think of a sweeter way to go.
Question: Even though it claims to be the sequel to the first SpongeBob movie, there's no Krusty Krab 2 and Plankton is somehow out of prison and continues trying to steal the Krabby Patty secret formula. Is this movie one of those "prequel" episodes made after the first movie came out?
Question: Slash filmed his role as a live-action character named Jerry Vadergeld and is even seen in the film's first trailer, but not in the actual movie. IMDb also says that Frankie Muniz has an uncredited role as a cop, but no police officers are found anywhere in the film. Other background characters (ex. The ice cream bikini girl, the two girls talking about the animated characters as superheroes), scenes (ex. Patrick and the bikini girl's three-scoop ice cream cone, Burger-Beard throwing a pair of plastic rings on Squidward's nose), and dialogue (ex. SpongeBob saying saying "This is uncomfortable!" and "Come on, team. Let's get that book back!") from the trailers were also not in the actual movie. Can anybody explain to me why all that is not in the actual movie?
Answer: The point of a trailer for a movie is to get bums on seats in cinemas so the film-makers have to make a film look really good and generate a "I really have to see this" vibe. Because virtually all professional films shoot far more material than they need, some of it will end up in the trailer as exclusive content and some will end up in the special features section of the DVD (bloopers, deleted scenes etc).

Answer: The first movie is actually set after the series finale of the show. This is because Stephen Hillenburg wanted the show to end at the Season 3 finale and for the first movie to conclude the series, but Nickelodeon disapproved, since the show was making them heaps of money. So the second movie is probably in line with the episodes after Season 3 and before the series finale. So no, it is probably not a prequel. If we look at it from a logical point of view, Plankton could have been released or escaped, and the Krusty Krab 2 could've closed. We don't know how far apart the episodes and movies are set in terms of time. The series has lots of inconsistencies anyway.
