Mondo Unveils SpongeBob Tiki Mug Collection

SpongeBob SquarePants debuted on Nickelodeon on May 1, 1999. Do you know what that means? The show is now old enough to buy alcohol. And we know just how the denizens of Bikini Bottom should celebrate coming of age. They should throw a huge luau at the Krusty Krab and serve cocktails in Mondo’s new line of SpongeBob tiki mugs. - And there’s already a “Pineapple Under the Sea” recipe for them to try.

Drink Under the Sea With SpongeBob SquarePants:

The latest addition to Mondo’s line of pop culture tiki mugs celebrate Nickelodeon’s beloved animated series. There are three different options, all designed by Joe Allard and sculpted by Ramirez Studios. The first is a 32-ounce one of SpongeBob himself. The mug ($50) features our favorite fry-cook looking like he might have had a few too many tiki mugs himself. It’s like he’s giving his concerned friends a double thumbs-up while they get him some water.

SpongeBob’s best friend Patrick Star also has his own mug ($60). The big lovable starfish can hold 25 ounces, but looks shocked that anyone would be drinking out of the top of his pointy head. The sculpt is inspired by the "Surprised Patrick" meme.

Finally there’s one based on Squidward Tentacles’s moai-inspired house. The 30-ounce drinkware ($55) is much less of a buzzkill than Squidward would be.

Each mug comes with three colorway options. They are all available in a base color that matches the series. And all three designs feature Riptide and Driftwood variants. The Riptide mugs have a blue/brown glaze, and the Driftwood mugs come with a reactive brown glaze. All nine versions are available to order right now at mondoshop.com.

Check out the Mondo x SpongeBob SquarePants Tiki Mug collection below!

Mondo SpongeBob SquarePants Tiki Mug Details:

"Are you ready for Mondo's very first SpongeBob SquarePants Tiki Mugs, kids? AYE AYE, CAPTAIN!

For more than twenty years, Nickelodeon's unapologetically silly animated farce has entertained children and grownups alike. We're big fans of SpongeBob, and sooooo excited to introduce you to three mugs in three different colorways based on our favorite Krusty Krab employee, his starfish sidekick Patrick, and the moai-inspired home of their neighbor, Squidward Tentacles. Each sculpt is available in three colorways – Regular Variants matching their series coloring, the Riptide Variant with a blue/brown glaze, and the Driftwood Variant featuring a reactive brown glaze."

Mondo Pineapple Under The Sea Drink:

Mondo also shared a perfect recipe for them. Their “Pineapple Under the Sea” cocktail calls for pineapple juice, rum, blue curaçao, and cream of coconut, along with a pineapple wedge and maraschino cherries for garnish. But only people—and TV shows—that are 21 and older should drink them.

If you'd rather use these SpongeBob-inspired tiki mugs for something other than drinking your favorite beverage, they work extremely well as house planters too, and these look to be the perfect size for that purpose.

Netflix Acquires ‘SpongeBob: Sponge on the Run’ International Rights From ViacomCBS

Netflix has acquired the international distribution rights for the latest SpongeBob film, insiders familiar with the deal have told Variety.

The streaming giant picked up the foreign rights for The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run, the twice-delayed Paramount Animation title from Nickelodeon Movies and Paramount Pictures. The film is one of many theatrical releases thwarted by the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic this year.

The deal excludes China, where Netflix has no presence, one source said. Paramount also has plans to release the film in Canada at some point, added another individual, after which Netflix will stream the film in that territory.

Representatives for Netflix and Viacom had no immediate comment.

The international release date for the third film in the SpongeBob franchise is not set, but Netflix is not beholden to the 2021 domestic debut before offering the film to its customers abroad.

Paramount announced in late June that Sponge on the Run would forgo theaters entirely and debut as a paid VOD title in early 2021, before heading to its sister streaming service CBS All Access as a home entertainment exclusive.

While the film’s budget is unknown, the animation hybrid’s latest installment cost roughly $60 million. MRC co-financed the project. Between the Netflix and CBS All Access deals, Paramount has been made whole on the cost of the project, said sources.

The acquisition is one of several recent transactions between Netflix and Paramount, including the shuttling of films like Kumail Nanjiani and Issa Rae’s Lovebirds, Aaron Sorkin’s Trial of the Chicago 7, and Martin Scorsese’s The Irishman.

Update (8/13) - Netflix has added placeholder pages for The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run to its international platforms, including in the UK! Netflix are billing the movie as a "Netflix Original":

It seems the Netflix deal has been confirmed! The #SpongeBobMovie Sponge on the Run has been added to Netflix international servers as a "Netflix original".https://t.co/IcfTVjkxOh

The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run follows SpongeBob SquarePants, his best friend Patrick Star and the rest of the gang from Bikini Bottom in the first-ever all CGI SpongeBob motion picture event. After SpongeBob’s beloved pet snail Gary is snail-napped, he and Patrick embark on an epic adventure to The Lost City of Atlantic City to bring Gary home. As they navigate the delights and dangers on this perilous and hilarious rescue mission, SpongeBob and his pals prove there’s nothing stronger than the power of friendship.

Directed by Tim Hill, voice cast of The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run includes Tom Kenny, Awkwafina, Clancy Brown, Rodger Bumpass, Bill Fagerbakke, Carolyn Lawrence, and Douglas Lawrence, and guest stars including Keanu Reeves (as a tumbleweed named Sage), Awkwafina, Reggie Watts and Snoop Dog.

Its the third SpongeBob film, after 2004’s The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie and 2015’s The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water. Those movies were commercially successful, earning over $450 million globally combined.
