#18: The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water
Evidently we're in the minority, but the idea of a 3-D movie based on the premise of two-dimensional cartoon character SpongeBob Squarepants and his friends leaving their underwater cartoon environment and entering and interacting with the real world still feels a bit ... freaky. Aside from this novelty, the sequel The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water closely hews to the standard zany SpongeBob formula and even includes the customary celebrity guest role (Antonio Banderas). This all adds up to a winning formula: Sponge Out of Water doubled the box-office earnings of the previous film.
U.S. Gross: $162,994,932
