Farace here. Phoenix, brace yourselves — The SpongeBob Movie: Search for SquarePants is washing up in the middle of the desert, proving once and for all that Bikini Bottom has a better navigation system than most tourists on I-10. This time SpongeBob is desperate to prove he’s a “big guy,” so he chases the Flying Dutchman — a ghost pirate who probably handles your 118-degree summers better than all of us — straight into the deep sea. Meanwhile, Bikini Bottom loses its mind, Ice Spice pops in, Mark Hamill voices a pirate, and the whole thing is somehow still less chaotic than Phoenix airport traffic. Advance screening hits 12/13 at 10am — while supplies last. Winners will be notified on 12/11 at 2pm local time, so check your inbox before you assume we’re just emailing you about solar panels again.
