SpongeBob SquarePants 4-D: Ride is a SpongeBob SquarePants amusement ride. In this amusement ride, SpongeBob retrieves a pickle stolen by a high tech robotic version of Patrick.


Characters[]

Synopsis[]

The 4-D ride film begins with Painty the Pirate about to sing the television series theme as usual, but he instead pops out of the painting and throws the riders into Bikini Bottom. The audience ends up in the Krusty Krab, where SpongeBob welcomes them and shows them how to make a Krabby Patty by pointing at the ingredients with his spatula. When preparing the Krabby Patty, which was made for Sandals, SpongeBob accidentally loses a pickle. The pickle then bounces out of the restaurant into Patrick's hand on a pogo stick. Patrick steals the pickle. SpongeBob, while confused at Patrick's apparent betrayal, ultimately sets out to rescue the pickle, bringing the riders along with him on his bubble bike.

SpongeBob first rides out into town, wreaking havoc in the process, and eventually rides through Jellyfish Fields, where he is stung by a horde of jellyfish. Suddenly, SpongeBob ends up falling into Rock Bottom, where a fish pops the bubble bike by biting it. The force of the pop hurdles SpongeBob into the air, landing in the Chum Bucket.

It is revealed that the real Patrick had been kidnapped by Plankton, and the pickle thief was a high tech robotic version of Patrick. The robot then pursues SpongeBob, only to be unplugged by Patrick, who is looking for an electrical outlet for his toaster. Plankton is then crushed by his robot and SpongeBob recovers the pickle.

Sandals enters the Chum Bucket to eat his patty; however, it turns out that he is allergic to pickles. He swells up and then explodes. His head, eyes, and mouth land on his shoes and he runs out of the restaurant while suffering from an allergic reaction, at which SpongeBob laughs, ending the 4-D ride film.

Mechanics[]

Trivia[]

General[]

  • Some versions of the ride have stationary seats and are just considered 3D rather than 4D, especially the versions formerly located at Cedar Fair parks that were originally owned by Paramount Pictures.
  • This ride stopped playing at the Nickelodeon Suites Resorts because of "SpongeBob SquarePants 4-D: The Great Jelly Rescue!"
  • This ride can be found at many theme parks and aquariums around the world.
    • There were multiple versions of this attraction at several Cedar Fair theme parks, including Kings Island, Kings Dominion, Carowinds, California's Great America, and Canada's Wonderland. All of these parks were owned by Paramount Pictures at the time of the ride's opening until Cedar Fair Entertainment Company purchased them in 2006.
  • It appeared at Dollywood in summer 2006. There was also a shop close to the entrance of the ride selling SpongeBob merchandise.
  • It appeared in Flamingo Land in the UK.
  • The ride somewhat foreshadows the ending. When SpongeBob blows up his bubble bike, Sandals is shown shaking his head horizontally, but is pushed away by the bike. It is a hint to him knowing this is a bad idea.
  • Painty the Pirate makes a cameo in the beginning reciting his usual "Are you ready?" phrase, however instead of saying, "Ooh," he says, "Good, In you go!"
  • The movie was also shown in other languages:
    • In Germany, it aired on Movie Park Germany, where there are also other exclusive SpongeBob rides. It was replaced in 2008, with Shrek 4D.
    • In Italy, it was shown on Gardaland.
    • It also appeared in Walibi Belgium.
  • The places where this ride is still open:

Errors[]

  • When Painty shoves the viewer to Bikini Bottom, Patrick's house is placed on the right of SpongeBob's house.
  • Like many episodes, the Chum Bucket is not across the street from the Krusty Krab.
  • When the camera crashes into the Krusty Krab, it ends up into the back of the kitchen, when it should have crashed into the dining room or the front of the kitchen because it was crashing through the front of the Krusty Krab, not the back.
  • The Galley Grub reads "Krabby Pattie" instead of "Krabby Patty." It also reads "Krabby Conco" instead of "Krabby Combo."
  • When SpongeBob leaves the Krusty Krab on the bubble bike, downtown is to the right of the Krusty Krab. However, in the beginning of the ride, Downtown Bikini Bottom is down an intersection, which to the left of the Krusty Krab.
  • Right before the camera crashes into the Krusty Krab, the order of the 122 Conch Street houses is wrong. Squidward's house is on the left, SpongeBob's house is on the middle, and Patrick's house is on the right, when usually, Patrick's house is on the left, Squidward's house is on the middle, and SpongeBob's house is on the right.
  • Sandals is differently colored from his series counterpart.
