The Alex Bale Theory: Alex was a main writer of spongebob. He had the idea to secretly make hidden meanings so that years down the road, when the show was losing popularity, he could produce spongebob theory videos to bring it back into the spotlight. He is not credited on any of the episodes, as that would give away everything.
After he finishes the ARG, then he’s gonna start making the stuff from his theories actually happen in new Spongebob episodes to make more people watch the new season. And then it’ll all build up to another SpongeBob movie
Even better, he was tasked by Stephen Hillenburg himself to unveil all his hints to get SpongeBob taken down due to massive controversy once he'd be dead and Nickelodeon would go way too far with it.
@@MiloMurphysLaw A movie where the stakes are higher then before, will Spongebob realise his besfriend is a robot before plankton initiates order 66, will the alien death in finally make their presence known, will squilliam confess his love to squidward, will pearl find out what actually happened to her mother find out in Spongebob : The Last Theory
Right?? Dude I am so easily creeped out by the smallest things, and I was feeling so uneasy through the entire thing but that ending?? That took me so off guard I just stopped freaking out
Alex you think your not doing a lot but, I used to fear my sister was coming into a depression. She never ever came outta her room unless it was to get food water or to go to school. Now every time you have a new conspiracy she runs to me and asks me to binge watch all of them to get a recap. You do more then make conspiracies you give people something to do in a time they need it most. We all thank you for going through all this effort I just wish there was a way I can actually show you how thankful we are
*plot twist* : _Plankton's wife, Karen, is actually the mastermind behind the robot invasion and is secretly tweaking and repurposing all of Plankton's failed inventions to aid her secret plan of total robot domination in Bikini Bottom_
Not to mention that he has a robot wife who supports him in all his plans AND that in the 2004 movie, plankton actually attempts to control bikini bottom with the technology in the helmets he made them put on. So I guess after that his plans of ruling over bikini bottom with technology and robots just turned out to be smarter and smarter
Let's review: 1. Squilliam and Squidward are bitter exes 2. Bikini Bottom is unknowingly being filmed as a documentary and Sandy and Mr. Krabs are spies for the camera crew 3. Mrs. Puff is a delusional kleptomaniac who's being tormented by someone she screwed over in her old life in Kelp City 4. Neptune turned regular fish into intelligent ones to rule over. Mr. Krabs took part in a war against primitive fish, killed a whale and took in the whale's daughter, sells the whale's meat as food, and probably plans to do the same to his daughter 5. The Atlanteans (who are aliens) were betrayed by Poseidon who took their technology and used it against them. Neptune was adopted by aliens and used to kick Poseidon off the throne. There's also an alternate timeline (caused by Sandy) where Poseidon stayed in power 6. Goofy Goobers is actually an alien death cult that uses its vendors as a front to push their agenda and trap people. SpongeBob and Patrick are more than likely already victims 7. Plankton is planning a robot invasion and is kidnapping people to replace with robots. Among his victims are Patrick and a baby. Bikini Bottom just has a lot going on right now
I don't think people realize how scary Patrick being controlled is. This theory not only makes Patrick's story a *Tragedy,* but I believe that Plankton *chose* Patrick, because he is so close to Spongebob. Whereverer Spongebob goes, he is the first to follow. He's not one with society. He does whatever he wants. The idea that Plankton is constantly watching the characters through Patrick just adds a whole new sense of fear to Plankton's character.
For some reason I think that Plankton is Euron Greyjoy (from ASOIAF), in the Drowned God’s watery halls where the ironborn go after they die. Plankton has one eye with a red iris. Euron’s sigil is a red eye crowned by two crows. Plankton wants to take over the world, as does Euron. Both are also closely related to the sea.
I love how Victoria reveals parallels between her and Alex's career with film making and TH-cam. She even asks about how his channel is doing and tries to convince him to keep it up knowing she gave him his muse. and then his other friend starts talking about how he hasn't had the same luck as the other two hinting at him getting his muse next.
Also, happy meat farms, confirming matpats theory in all of this, I’m surprised he didn’t notice that. His skills are matched only by that of Alex bale himself.
@JESSE NO she is absolutly a robot Plankton literally created and programmed her Which is weird considering the amout of times she contradicts him and even kicks him out of the house
Let’s just appreciate that not only has he make a really good horror arg, but also made very compelling, interesting, SpongeBob theories to go with them. Edit: Ok, thank you so much for 1k likes! I have never gotta this many likes before!
Why is everyone calling it an ARG? Those are interactive, require audience participation. He's just weaving in a fictional story about himself the creator in the videos. Its not an ARG unless I'm missing something?
@@luvenstein1852 it is an ARG because there are things outside of the videos that you have to go out of your way to find, and other youtube channels that are connected too - watch for the sponsorships in the videos, one of them is very much not like the others.
@@luvenstein1852 you do know arg has become the popularized term for internet mysteries in general right? No need to act like a smartass and ignore the obvious
Just wanted to point this out, in addition to plankton's whirlybrain's & brain coral's controlling mechanisms, he's also controlled spongebob in the first season with a small control panel attaching to the brain in the episode Plankton!, possibly his first prototype in controlling minds, and even in The Spongebob SquarePants Movie, Plankton uses bucket's on the fish's heads similar to that of the Brain Coral that it controls each one into his own army
I don’t know if the whole “I don’t wanna be the spongebob guy” thing is entirely genuine, but you have leveraged this whole project into an incredible and delightfully creepy cinematic powerhouse cleverly disguised and doubling as this collection of simple theory essays(which are in and of themselves also excellent) and I just really and truly hope you’re proud of this, just 21 minutes in and I feel like applauding alone in my bedroom. Bravo
Honestly man. You dont have to necessarily be the “spongebob guy” You have a knack for making theory videos in general. If you decide to do any other shows I would 100% watch it.
He's a film maker, Its not about. being the "SpongeBob Guy" This series is portraying being forced into doing content you don't have a passion for, because people do not want or care for artistic vision, Alex is forced to make theories, as without them and the musse, he would be a noone, and irrelevant
Alex, whatever you choose to do, whether it be films or continuing these theories, I truly hope whatever it is, it fullfills you and your goals. Please dont make these theories if they have a negative affect on your mental and/or physical health, your loyal fanbase is here for you, choose what truly makes you happy.
That’s cool and all, but why should he or would he believe in one guy, the fact is most people aren’t part of his loyal fan base, and most people haven’t even seen one of his films, he shouldn’t make the theories If he doesn’t want to, but it would have a negative effect on his career, why do you think his sponge bob theories have one long story separately placed along all of the theories, so he can expose the people to his films and his skills in a place people actually watch.
You picked the perfect series to do this to. I'm pretty sure I'll never know how much was intentional by the creators coz there's just too much of it and it was relatively untouched by the fanciful lunatic community (compared to something like "Bart died")
The thing that makes lots of sense with this theory is that in the older seasons there is less robots and robots get used way more in the later seasons
26:05 yeah its true all that but we dont talk about the fact that since the electrical plug exists it means the outlet does too, in other words he is a robot yes
yes, 'Inside a mind' has covered Alex before and is a big fan. he's already covered the SpongeBob stuff but he's also covered one of alex's previous series.
lol, I just commented a damn long multi-paragraph theory about The Tentacle Monster XD and was wondering why no one makes videos about Alex Bale's theories.
Don't worry, Alex! There's plenty more for you to do besides Spongebob theories. I mean there's entire lineups of cartoons for you to do theories on- Fairly Oddparents, Jimmy Neutron, Dexter's Lab, Courage, KND, Power Puff Girls, Catdog, Ren and Stimpy, so many in fact you could do this forever and ever and ever and ever, wouldn't that be great? You'd never have to stop! Ever!
I love how- despite all of the asks for him to keep being "The Spongebob Guy" -he's somehow managed to create something truly creative and intriguing out of what he was given to work with. It's the perfect middle point, and now I'm here more for the story instead of the theories. As well as the short films he's put out. Can't wait for what's next. (edit): bruh, why the hell did my complement turn into a warzone but also, thanks for the likes UwU~*
I love how SponserBlock skips all of that worthless tangent and allows me to just watch the video without out-of-place interruptions. From a 30 minute video to 22 minutes. 8 minutes of.. whatever other skit he's trying to add. Seriously. Imagine trying to watch Avatar: The Last Airbender and every 4 minutes there's an out-of-place 3 minute segment of the author trying to get you to go watch his reality comedy-drama slice of life series.
i enjoy the inversion where the deeper he gets into being the spongebob guy the more his actual passionate work starts to shine through, it’s kind of interesting, maybe worth looking at thematically
This is also proven by the new episodes that are linked. In an episode, everyone but plankton and Karen is robots. (Dunno why Karen is not a robot.) Giving a fact that plankton is getting true power. It’s also in the future.
late reply but assuming ur referring to the ep "welcome to binary bottom", plankton was a robot in that ep, he was a lil wind-up toy. the reason karen was a fish was bc she's normally a robot, so in the universe where everyone else is a robot she is the only fish
The plot twist in the sponsor was pure gold. The arg is also amazing, his film making talents are truly magical. I wonder what things he will make up next! Can't wait for the next horror short
@@evecates2232 Because I thought the theory part of the video might be interesting. I'm not watching for the attempt at a horror story. Look, if he really wants to make short horror films, more power to him. My real problem with it is that he forces it into a completely unrelated video. Imagine watching a movie, but every ten minutes, there was an ad for adult diapers within the movie itself. I'm willing to bet you wouldn't be too happy about that.
I’m really invested in this monster thing…. So creepy yet so intriguing… definitely looking forward to the next one! The theories are amazing but the monster side plot is just incredible
I like the thought of Patrick being somewhat artificial inside his brain, but still biological enough to require food and water. It’s a fascinating combination that isn’t quite android, nor cybernetic.
Honestly the little movie segments in-between each part is just amazing. You can clearly see you film talent come through with the way in which you structure it so as to build a gripping story which always ends on a suspenseful cliff hanger. Hopefully you can make this a full length film one day, would love to see it.
HELLO!!! I want to spend time with celebrities. Just kidding. GAGAGAGAGA! I only want to spend time with my two girlfriends and record videos for TH-cam with the 3 of us. OH YEAH. Don't hate me for living the best life, dear av
You’re filming expertise mixed with your amazing theories makes for such an amazing video, and it keeps spongebob entertaining for all of us who grew up watching it. thank you for all you do, Alex.
This was a very interesting theory, and I will say this... you were on point with the Patrick stuff. After thinking about it, I thought to myself, "Well that would explain Patrick's behavior throughout the show."
Alex, I must say this is amazing the world building in this is spectacular, on top of that the Camera angles and the music is just a wonderful touch. Honestly you should consider making a full 30 minute short film because I would pay to see that. Keep up the great work i'll always be rooting for you!
Don't forget the first spongebob movie where plankton was able to control everyone in bikini bottom using those helmets. They all seemed so robot like in their speak and movement.
The second brain coral was actually smart enough to realize that spongebob doesnt want the smart patrick, spongebob will keep switching them out no matter what until he is his normal self, the brain coral was acting dumb so he doesnt get switched out. That could be a whole other theory is that patrick is no longer patrick, he is a brain coral controlling his body.
The problem is that Spongebob wouldn't switch them no matter. Like the first smarter patrick wanted to change his own smart head and spongebob even asked him if he is really ok with that beforw he changed his head.
I'm blown away by how much better the live action segments feel? The shooting, composition and editing have drastically improved lately, and they were already pretty good
I didn’t even realize that the anchor fish and Plankton were the same voice actor. This theory definitely didn’t top the Goofy Goober theory or the Mrs. Puff theory but was really fun to watch and really creative. You did theories about Mr. Krabs, Sandy, Mrs. Puff, and now Patrick. I want a theory on Squidward and maybe why he is so grumpy all the time. I also heard you might do a bubble Illuminati theory and that would be fun. Anyways, whatever you do I love your videos so keep making more!
I think it is a combo of multiple things such as his life in general, the antics and shenanigans of multiple Bikini Bottom residents, and constantly getting the short end of the stick for no reason for absolutely no reason whatsoever from having a whole grill blow up in his face point blank to the loan of his house being cancelled for indirectly destroying the town due to a faulty security system that attacked him instead of the targets it was designed to attack.
My favorite theorys from worst to best 7. Neptune theory 6. Television theory 5. Squilliam theory 4. Robot theory 3. The krabby patty secret formula/pearls mother 2. Alien death cult theory 1. Mrs puff theory
A tiny squidward theory is that he is a guardian for spongebob because adhd or autism is getting at spongebob but squidward is helping him whilst battling depression himself
The scene where you searched on google, it took me a few tries, but I finally managed to spot a previous search that says, “What is a muse?” NOW THAT is great attention to detail, you’ve really gone all out and it shows. Keep up the great work!
This theory makes tons of sense. This would also explain how plankton has near limitless funding. Him selling his inventions around bikini bottom would definitely give him a stream of money for more robots or inventions.
22:09 the happy meat farms reference with the « begin planting spore » video is so awesome I watched this video so many times before realizing that. This guy really pays attention to detail
Damn, that feeling, when u kinda feel all the conspiracies may be over by now, but then a new video comes in and it just clicks , everything makes sense... Hats off Alex, and the fact that this theory hasn't been covered yet on youtube , atleast to this extent is a also respectable
That was such a good ending; “what?!” I was actually more interested in the intermission show than the actual spongebob theory. You’re doing good, Old Root. Keep it up!
@@libbyx5211 I actually was too, after the 2nd clip I was like, okay wtf is he hiding in the basement. Not sure why different minds always has to equal lying?
Any other TH-camr would see that one specific series of theirs gets more views and only start to make that, but the fact that you were able to turn that into one of the most ambitious and well made ARGs I've ever seen is a stroke of pure genius.
@@huang111 Alex is known for his Pizza Time Pizza arg tho. It's not unreasonable to think this arg was intended to have a slow role out. Part of the story is him becoming the Spongebob Guy, and it not having hints at an arg in those first videos enhances that quality of the story, I think. Anyway, idk. Just assumed it was obviously intended to be an arg from the start, but I could be wrong.
@@jaykay6222 Definitely was, Happy Meat Farms has been a website since Episode 1, which is where the muses come from (Tentacle, Antonio, Sonc, and the old lady)
YES MORE SPONGEBOB THEORIES!!!! I don’t have access to all the SpongeBob episodes please put more crazy theories out there, they are fun, entertaining and absolutely on point I can’t correct anything cause you’re right! I love SpongeBob and seen almost all them and love the connections you make to them step by step. Thank you for all your work but please just more SpongeBob conspiracies please!!!!!
Alex, I love your SpongeBob theories! They all have a crazy premise that I would never consider as a possibility for a SpongeBob theory. But you have such amazing little films. I really love watching all your videos and I hope you never stop making them.
I feel like a lot of people are misunderstanding the point of these videos. They’re not “Spongebob theories with horror in between” it’s more like “a horror series that uses the attention grabby Spongebob theories to enhance it’s message”.
I don't think it's as simple as that. The theories are part of the horror story. The monster provides inspiration and strange ideas, which the character uses to gain internet fame.
As much as I love these theories, it’s the acting and the bits with you we see that I really love. It’s brilliant. You’re a brilliant and talented writer, Alex.
Can’t disagree anymore. He should keep them separate. Stop ruining the SpongeBob vids with these uninteresting muse stuff. Keep them separate, so the muse nerds like you can watch that and we can watch this undisturbed
@@burner680 I’d say the SpongeBob theories and the Muse stuff kind of needs each other to really succeed. If it was the SpongeBob stuff on its own, then, while albeit interesting for the time being, it’d likely get lumped with the other countless theories. If the Muse ARG stuff was on its own, it likely would fail to garner attention and wouldn’t be able to get the message across as effectively.
Every single aspect of this series is incredible and so skillfully done - the intros, the ads, the in-depth coverage, the editing, the clip selection, the ominous creature segments, the stages of grief over becoming the spongebob guy... honestly this showcases so much of your talent in other areas while also being an eye grabber for past and current Spongebob fans and curious algorithm passersby. This isn't a plea to continue down this path, more of a thank you for doing something like this, it reeled me in as part of your audience and now I'm here to stay. Appreciate your time and work!
On season 7 episode 1, squidward asks Patrick "just how dumb are you?" And Patrick answers "it varies". He is consciously aware that he suddenly becomes smart, but then reverts back to his normal self.
alex, you continue to amaze me. each theory and edition to the muse arg is like another puzzle piece added to this amazing story. i love your work! and dont worry, you arent only the “spongebob guy”.
The sponge bob theories are how I found this channel but I am as interested in the muse as the theory, if not more so. Can't wait to see the next part of both
Theory: Alex is actually using the Happy Meat Farms ARG as resume material so he can secretly apply as a writer for the spongebob show and make all the theories come true.
These videos are so good. Like 10 minutes in I was like “well, that was a pretty good theory…” wait… there’s 30 minutes left. And at fifteen minutes “Wow, that was an incredible theory, surely it’s almost over” and the theory just gets better and better. This is one of the best videos on TH-cam, the theory is so great but gives a great layer of like… purpose with the underlying ARG. Like even though the theories are amazing, the little bits of lore really make it seem so important. Idk. You’re definitely going places man!
In Greek Mythology, the Muses are the gods of creativity, and you always praise the Muses before you do a play- if you've ever seen any Greek play like Antigone, they always begin with praising the Muses. Alex's Muse is his god of creativity, and but it's been consuming him because of his struggles with being unable to express his true passion for creativity.
We also wear little hats for Dionysus. They were uh... Phallic shaped. ... ... ... Theater and film is an amazing major that will also teach you about the ancient world, I swear you WILL NOT regret it. It also teaches you how to endure many idiots in one place at one time. Think of learning how to endure ten Kirk Camerons at once. You'll learn to do it! :D I'm not dead inside I swear. Promise.
For all the people saying "alex your horror shorts are trash", ignore them. You are pretty talented when it comes to this stuff and you should continue making them. edit: holy crap yall thanks so much for 800 likes it means so much to me that so many people agree that alexs horror shorts are actually good!
Have to disagree there. They couldn't hold the tension and it was usually cut with awkward monolog and dialog that if they weren't included, would have made it much more bearable. I will admit that people just saying they're trash should be ignored, but they could be better and the constructive criticism should always be taken
And Robot Plankton is also gay for Robot SpongeBob. Considering that Robo Plankton is built off the original's likeness, as is Robo SpongeBob based on his Ka-Rah-Tae attack, this just proves Plankton secretly has unrequited feelings for SpongeBob. Could this unrequited crush be his primary motivation for using SpongeBob so much in his plans or something?
We don’t watch you for sponge-bob, we watch you for the theory’s and the dedication you put in your videos. Any theory you do on other shows or even other content besides theory’s we would still watch. It’s your channel, make what ever you want :)
@@zekiz774 I know nothing about that, so I can't say anything about it, but I do know that this definitely is NOT an ARG. There needs to be audience participation for it to qualify. Where in this whole thing is there any of that?
it’s not even the fact that he makes these that’s awesome, it’s the fact that he’s able to watch the same show we watch but he’s able to see something off about it, and then able to connect the evidence from other episodes. It’s crazy i don’t know how he does it lol, i love this series so much
At the big plot twist at the end, I realized that my "Alex Bale" theory about the unknown tentacle monster in his basement being a manifestation of the hate, negative comments, and people who want Alex to only post content related to his popular Spongebob Conspiracy may have just gone down the toilet. That said, this was a very interesting and well-made video. Keep up the great work!
I really think that the 8th theory is gonna be the "Flying Dutchman Theory" because in the Goofy Goober Theory, theres a random word generator that says "Robot Apocalypse and Ghost Pirate. Robot Apocalypse is the 7th theory and Ghost Pirate is the 8th theory But thats just a prediction.
It's great that people are finally actually talking about Alex Bale. Before, people would just "wow" or gawk at how "true" these theories are. In actuality, these theories are the works of a film analyst. The art of analysis in film is finding things that aren't actually there, and because he studied film in uni, of course he can construct these "theories" so well. He's good at finding motifs and forming something "real" around them.
@god's follower eh I’m not convinced that the writers are doing this intentionally… I am, however, impressed with Alex’s effort and ability to make it appear so
God I know right. From time to time I get a little sad about how long between videos it takes while we wait for a new one but the insane amount of thought and Research.. my God. It must take a lot to do this kind of shit so in depth and so often.
Well yes, but also no. Did you notice how the realistic fish (his name is either T. McTrout or Johnny Elaine according to my research) has a different voice in Mrs Puff flashback/nightmare vision? And not just any random voice, he has the same voice as Perch Perkins. I feel more like either Mrs Puff forgot what the original news anchor fish looked like and mixed him with Johnny Elaine/T. McTrout in her mind, or Plankton did something to the original news anchor fish and replaced him with our favorite realistic news anchor fish. Given this theory, the latter seems more the case..
He’s multitasking the theories and story, because that was his favourite thing on his channel but didn’t grow as much popularity. The spongebob theories were a blast, so he could sprinkle in the thing he loved most.
Alex Blake is clearly a genius because this is the third time he's used some innocuous but well done series to push an underlying massive equally as amazing story. Absolutely love his work.
@@dracvich Also, he has two other series, one he made in high school that was a series of commercials for different after school clubs at his school. I unfortunately can never remember the name of it. Then there's his Pizza Time Pizza ARG. The dude's a legend.
Hold yourself to this tile as a “film maker” not a spongebob theorist, we like your videos because your the maker of them other wise we wouldn’t be watching them. Make anything you want it’s the fact that your making them is what makes them so special.
This is an arg. The spongebob guy thing is part of the arg and all of that scene is also part of the arg you should look for inside the mind's vid on Alex bale
@@happyjay9168 That doesn't mean We can't Support him, I love His spongebob I think they're Hilarious and Intruiging but I do like what HE Loves to make, which is Film making. Sorry about me Rambling
@@happyjay9168 I don’t know many things about filming so that explains the two words, I just feel as if maybe he wants to diversify what he makes this year and a lot of creators do get into a lop at some point, plus I watched only a couple of his videos. I just noticed he puts a lot of passion into them and just thought I could give my personal opinion on how I see him.
i dont know how, but i never noticed that consistency beforehand and its really creepy considering where the theories come from in-universe, because it could mean one of two things, that the muse *wants* to be discovered, or that something is controlling even the muse itself
I love how this ARG is unfolding, and how the theories aline with the overarching story. Edit: I've edited this comment because I mistook the camera shot of Alex from behind as his muse being a copy of him, turns out I get confused easily. Sorry to those who liked this!
@@user-jl7cz2pe6d When he thinks his muse is giving him the silent treatment, we see it only from the back, being careful to not see his face. That, or it's a shot choice to point out the dark surroundings and feel like a jarring switch of pace.
The random bit from a The Theorizer video was hilarious. His whole thing is that you can't tell if him being mad is a bit or not (or at least *I* can't tell if it's a bit or not), and grabbing a tiny portion of a video is just perfect.
7:00 make something preassure resistent and seal tight enough and it can 100% exist. Just when it breaks via open circuit now the entire system is shorted and you need rebuild it entierly.
Hi Alex, idk if you'll see this comment or not but i'm sure it's frustrating wanting to show off your art with people only wanting one thing. your talent for cinematography and filmaking is so not talked about enough! are you kidding!? i had goosebumps every time your cutscenes would show. but above all that, spongebob is my childhood and I always appreciate the theories
It breaks my heart to see Alex think that people will unsubscribe if he starts focusing on things he is passionate about. I have been subscribed for a while now and no matter what he creates I always enjoy. Weather it’s horror films (my favorite out of all of his stuff) or theory’s. Either way people will support you Alex so do what you love!
“How To Defend Yourself From A Larger Opponent” and “How To Defend Your Home” in the search bar is so simply placed yet so important to the overall story is amazing storytelling. I love the tiny details as well as the story itself and its “monster” from your past videos so much. I love your storytelling and filmography!

The Alex Bale Theory: Alex was a main writer of spongebob. He had the idea to secretly make hidden meanings so that years down the road, when the show was losing popularity, he could produce spongebob theory videos to bring it back into the spotlight. He is not credited on any of the episodes, as that would give away everything.
After he finishes the ARG, then he’s gonna start making the stuff from his theories actually happen in new Spongebob episodes to make more people watch the new season. And then it’ll all build up to another SpongeBob movie
Even better, he was tasked by Stephen Hillenburg himself to unveil all his hints to get SpongeBob taken down due to massive controversy once he'd be dead and Nickelodeon would go way too far with it.
@@MiloMurphysLaw A movie where the stakes are higher then before, will Spongebob realise his besfriend is a robot before plankton initiates order 66, will the alien death in finally make their presence known, will squilliam confess his love to squidward, will pearl find out what actually happened to her mother find out in
Spongebob : The Last Theory
There actually is real Alex bale theory by inside a mind. Recommend checking it out
I'm not sure he's old enough for that but it would be a fun theory
That ending was honestly the biggest plot twist I never saw coming. Absolutely wonderful.
Same, I was so shocked and got chills!!
Inside a mind claled it
This whole time I was thinking it was squidward lol
Right?? Dude I am so easily creeped out by the smallest things, and I was feeling so uneasy through the entire thing but that ending?? That took me so off guard I just stopped freaking out
I think the other muse that Victoria has is the other Happy Meat Farms experiment that escaped!
Alex you think your not doing a lot but, I used to fear my sister was coming into a depression. She never ever came outta her room unless it was to get food water or to go to school. Now every time you have a new conspiracy she runs to me and asks me to binge watch all of them to get a recap. You do more then make conspiracies you give people something to do in a time they need it most. We all thank you for going through all this effort I just wish there was a way I can actually show you how thankful we are

Not to mention that he has a robot wife who supports him in all his plans AND that in the 2004 movie, plankton actually attempts to control bikini bottom with the technology in the helmets he made them put on.

The last plotwist was really well done, that "WHAT" is incredible. GREAT JOB!
I swear that was the funniest thing I have heard a day
@@artslife4424 WHAT?!??
That was Alexs reaction btw
“The Cynical Critic” (the one that cause Alex Bale to make the 5th SpongeBob Theory) also has a Muse as well.
I also said “WHAT!”
Let's review:
1. Squilliam and Squidward are bitter exes
2. Bikini Bottom is unknowingly being filmed as a documentary and Sandy and Mr. Krabs are spies for the camera crew
3. Mrs. Puff is a delusional kleptomaniac who's being tormented by someone she screwed over in her old life in Kelp City
4. Neptune turned regular fish into intelligent ones to rule over. Mr. Krabs took part in a war against primitive fish, killed a whale and took in the whale's daughter, sells the whale's meat as food, and probably plans to do the same to his daughter
5. The Atlanteans (who are aliens) were betrayed by Poseidon who took their technology and used it against them. Neptune was adopted by aliens and used to kick Poseidon off the throne. There's also an alternate timeline (caused by Sandy) where Poseidon stayed in power
6. Goofy Goobers is actually an alien death cult that uses its vendors as a front to push their agenda and trap people. SpongeBob and Patrick are more than likely already victims
7. Plankton is planning a robot invasion and is kidnapping people to replace with robots. Among his victims are Patrick and a baby.

@@yaboi-rowlet something tells me spongebob is connected to fnaf
I don't think people realize how scary Patrick being controlled is. This theory not only makes Patrick's story a *Tragedy,* but I believe that Plankton *chose* Patrick, because he is so close to Spongebob. Whereverer Spongebob goes, he is the first to follow. He's not one with society. He does whatever he wants. The idea that Plankton is constantly watching the characters through Patrick just adds a whole new sense of fear to Plankton's character.
For some reason I think that Plankton is Euron Greyjoy (from ASOIAF), in the Drowned God’s watery halls where the ironborn go after they die. Plankton has one eye with a red iris. Euron’s sigil is a red eye crowned by two crows. Plankton wants to take over the world, as does Euron. Both are also closely related to the sea.
i feel like Patrick could be a cyborg tho and his mind is going agianst it
@@yaboi-rowlet it would make sense.
I love how Victoria reveals parallels between her and Alex's career with film making and TH-cam. She even asks about how his channel is doing and tries to convince him to keep it up knowing she gave him his muse. and then his other friend starts talking about how he hasn't had the same luck as the other two hinting at him getting his muse next.
the little detail at 9:53 of "how to defend yourself from a larger opponent" already being googled is god-tier effort on your end, Alex

Why is everyone calling it an ARG? Those are interactive, require audience participation. He's just weaving in a fictional story about himself the creator in the videos. Its not an ARG unless I'm missing something?

Ik I get excited every time he posts
But horor videos they are good tu 🥺
Just wanted to point this out, in addition to plankton's whirlybrain's & brain coral's controlling mechanisms, he's also controlled spongebob in the first season with a small control panel attaching to the brain in the episode Plankton!, possibly his first prototype in controlling minds, and even in The Spongebob SquarePants Movie, Plankton uses bucket's on the fish's heads similar to that of the Brain Coral that it controls each one into his own army
He's continuing to become more advanced
Yeah I'm surprised he didn't mentioned that
I don’t know if the whole “I don’t wanna be the spongebob guy” thing is entirely genuine, but you have leveraged this whole project into an incredible and delightfully creepy cinematic powerhouse cleverly disguised and doubling as this collection of simple theory essays(which are in and of themselves also excellent) and I just really and truly hope you’re proud of this, just 21 minutes in and I feel like applauding alone in my bedroom. Bravo
his whole channel is an arg too, insanely genius
Even though the cat died (so sad btw 😭😭), it was a nice touch to name him Gary (SpongeBobs snail/cat)
Great job Alex!!
Honestly man. You dont have to necessarily be the “spongebob guy” You have a knack for making theory videos in general. If you decide to do any other shows I would 100% watch it.
A regular show theory would be INASANE! 💯💯💯
@@lifeofrk2099 Oh man that would be crazy!
But does he want to make theory videos? Would you stop watching if he stopped making theory videos?
He's a film maker, Its not about. being the "SpongeBob Guy"
This series is portraying being forced into doing content you don't have a passion for, because people do not want or care for artistic vision, Alex is forced to make theories, as without them and the musse, he would be a noone, and irrelevant
It’s like Jschlatt being forced into Minecraft.
Alex, whatever you choose to do, whether it be films or continuing these theories, I truly hope whatever it is, it fullfills you and your goals. Please dont make these theories if they have a negative affect on your mental and/or physical health, your loyal fanbase is here for you, choose what truly makes you happy.
It's a fictional story. He makes horror films and these thoeries are his longest film yet.

@@dropi6574 Ya ya I get that, its just the guy seems kinda burnt out, maybe he needs a break ig.
That’s cool and all, but why should he or would he believe in one guy, the fact is most people aren’t part of his loyal fan base, and most people haven’t even seen one of his films, he shouldn’t make the theories If he doesn’t want to, but it would have a negative effect on his career, why do you think his sponge bob theories have one long story separately placed along all of the theories, so he can expose the people to his films and his skills in a place people actually watch.
You picked the perfect series to do this to. I'm pretty sure I'll never know how much was intentional by the creators coz there's just too much of it and it was relatively untouched by the fanciful lunatic community (compared to something like "Bart died")

lol, I just commented a damn long multi-paragraph theory about The Tentacle Monster XD and was wondering why no one makes videos about Alex Bale's theories.
Don't worry, Alex! There's plenty more for you to do besides Spongebob theories. I mean there's entire lineups of cartoons for you to do theories on- Fairly Oddparents, Jimmy Neutron, Dexter's Lab, Courage, KND, Power Puff Girls, Catdog, Ren and Stimpy, so many in fact you could do this forever and ever and ever and ever, wouldn't that be great? You'd never have to stop! Ever!

i enjoy the inversion where the deeper he gets into being the spongebob guy the more his actual passionate work starts to shine through, it’s kind of interesting, maybe worth looking at thematically
This is also proven by the new episodes that are linked.
In an episode, everyone but plankton and Karen is robots. (Dunno why Karen is not a robot.) Giving a fact that plankton is getting true power.
It’s also in the future.
And robot Sandy went full Thing mode and assimilated *everyone*
late reply but assuming ur referring to the ep "welcome to binary bottom", plankton was a robot in that ep, he was a lil wind-up toy. the reason karen was a fish was bc she's normally a robot, so in the universe where everyone else is a robot she is the only fish
The plot twist in the sponsor was pure gold. The arg is also amazing, his film making talents are truly magical. I wonder what things he will make up next! Can't wait for the next horror short

Look, if he really wants to make short horror films, more power to him. My real problem with it is that he forces it into a completely unrelated video.
Imagine watching a movie, but every ten minutes, there was an ad for adult diapers within the movie itself. I'm willing to bet you wouldn't be too happy about that.

I like the thought of Patrick being somewhat artificial inside his brain, but still biological enough to require food and water. It’s a fascinating combination that isn’t quite android, nor cybernetic.
Honestly the little movie segments in-between each part is just amazing. You can clearly see you film talent come through with the way in which you structure it so as to build a gripping story which always ends on a suspenseful cliff hanger. Hopefully you can make this a full length film one day, would love to see it.
Idk if you know, but those segments are part of an horror arg called happy meat farms, a arg Alex has created, and is very interesting and terrifying.
I agree, I'm glad he's doing this. I don't want to see him doomed to forever be "The Spongebob Guy". He's clearly got more talent than that.

I fear plankton now, because before watching this I always thought plankton was a joke villain. However he is secretly an evil genius.

The second brain coral was actually smart enough to realize that spongebob doesnt want the smart patrick, spongebob will keep switching them out no matter what until he is his normal self, the brain coral was acting dumb so he doesnt get switched out. That could be a whole other theory is that patrick is no longer patrick, he is a brain coral controlling his body.
The problem is that Spongebob wouldn't switch them no matter. Like the first smarter patrick wanted to change his own smart head and spongebob even asked him if he is really ok with that beforw he changed his head.

14:56 I love that’s little short story segs u been putting in, really does show ur passion in film/video
I didn’t even realize that the anchor fish and Plankton were the same voice actor. This theory definitely didn’t top the Goofy Goober theory or the Mrs. Puff theory but was really fun to watch and really creative. You did theories about Mr. Krabs, Sandy, Mrs. Puff, and now Patrick. I want a theory on Squidward and maybe why he is so grumpy all the time. I also heard you might do a bubble Illuminati theory and that would be fun. Anyways, whatever you do I love your videos so keep making more!
Honestly he’s probably just mad/sad all the time because his neighbors are SpongeBob and Patrick
I think Squidwards just depressed. His life is in a dead end
I think it is a combo of multiple things such as his life in general, the antics and shenanigans of multiple Bikini Bottom residents, and constantly getting the short end of the stick for no reason for absolutely no reason whatsoever from having a whole grill blow up in his face point blank to the loan of his house being cancelled for indirectly destroying the town due to a faulty security system that attacked him instead of the targets it was designed to attack.
My favorite theorys from worst to best
7. Neptune theory
6. Television theory
5. Squilliam theory
4. Robot theory
3. The krabby patty secret formula/pearls mother
2. Alien death cult theory
1. Mrs puff theory
A tiny squidward theory is that he is a guardian for spongebob because adhd or autism is getting at spongebob but squidward is helping him whilst battling depression himself

Stop trying to be a sycophant

I feel like a lot of people are misunderstanding the point of these videos. They’re not “Spongebob theories with horror in between” it’s more like “a horror series that uses the attention grabby Spongebob theories to enhance it’s message”.
I doubt it. I'm pretty sure he inserts his horror series in the spongebob theories videos as a way to get more people to watch them.

I don't think it's as simple as that. The theories are part of the horror story. The monster provides inspiration and strange ideas, which the character uses to gain internet fame.
Not me. I'm here for theories and theories alone, all this horror stuff on the side isn't interesting to me.
@Aspie Symbolism
Well, I'd say it's actually a mix of both.
As much as I love these theories, it’s the acting and the bits with you we see that I really love. It’s brilliant. You’re a brilliant and talented writer, Alex.
Exactly. I love the horror videos he make and not just the theories, his acting is on a different level and I love it.

@@burner680 I’d say the SpongeBob theories and the Muse stuff kind of needs each other to really succeed. If it was the SpongeBob stuff on its own, then, while albeit interesting for the time being, it’d likely get lumped with the other countless theories. If the Muse ARG stuff was on its own, it likely would fail to garner attention and wouldn’t be able to get the message across as effectively.
That conversation with Alex and his friends gave me some real chills. That was so good
That twist at the end oh my god
Every single aspect of this series is incredible and so skillfully done - the intros, the ads, the in-depth coverage, the editing, the clip selection, the ominous creature segments, the stages of grief over becoming the spongebob guy... honestly this showcases so much of your talent in other areas while also being an eye grabber for past and current Spongebob fans and curious algorithm passersby. This isn't a plea to continue down this path, more of a thank you for doing something like this, it reeled me in as part of your audience and now I'm here to stay. Appreciate your time and work!

In Greek Mythology, the Muses are the gods of creativity, and you always praise the Muses before you do a play- if you've ever seen any Greek play like Antigone, they always begin with praising the Muses.
Alex's Muse is his god of creativity, and but it's been consuming him because of his struggles with being unable to express his true passion for creativity.
We also wear little hats for Dionysus. They were uh...
Phallic shaped.

Theater and film is an amazing major that will also teach you about the ancient world, I swear you WILL NOT regret it. It also teaches you how to endure many idiots in one place at one time. Think of learning how to endure ten Kirk Camerons at once. You'll learn to do it!
:D
I'm not dead inside I swear. Promise.
For all the people saying "alex your horror shorts are trash", ignore them. You are pretty talented when it comes to this stuff and you should continue making them.
edit: holy crap yall thanks so much for 800 likes it means so much to me that so many people agree that alexs horror shorts are actually good!
jk listen to them and be sad
alex your horror shorts are trash
never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down, never gonna run around, and forget you!
Have to disagree there. They couldn't hold the tension and it was usually cut with awkward monolog and dialog that if they weren't included, would have made it much more bearable. I will admit that people just saying they're trash should be ignored, but they could be better and the constructive criticism should always be taken
Are you talking about the awkward monologue in Late Night Snack?
@@AlexBaleFilms yeah, that one.
Let's not forget that in Battle for Bikini Bottom, the most powerful of Plankton's rogue robots are giant robotic doppelgangers of the main cast.
And Robot Plankton is also gay for Robot SpongeBob. Considering that Robo Plankton is built off the original's likeness, as is Robo SpongeBob based on his Ka-Rah-Tae attack, this just proves Plankton secretly has unrequited feelings for SpongeBob. Could this unrequited crush be his primary motivation for using SpongeBob so much in his plans or something?
I want to see more of this story Alex has going. Hearing his friend had a monster too has me interested in where this could go
Me to
That is where i'm pointing too
What if it's not just those two who have monsters
Think of the cynical critic
Seemed to be heavily based of the babadook, especially in the first 6 episodes
@@Orionthehumanoidkaiju in the cynical critic's videos you can see doors open themselves and black ooze come from a vent, he has one 100%
We don’t watch you for sponge-bob, we watch you for the theory’s and the dedication you put in your videos. Any theory you do on other shows or even other content besides theory’s we would still watch. It’s your channel, make what ever you want :)
The views say something different. While his SpongeBob videos gain at least 2m views, his short movies only get 100k
@@zekiz774 I’m sure if he posted a short movie now with the new subscribers he’s gained, he’d get a lot more views on it than before he blew up.
@@zekiz774 Yeah, and he's super butthurt over nobody caring about his crappy films, so now he's forcing them into what people actually watch.
@@mattpace1026 he's pretty good at it. Have you watched Pizza Time Pizza? One of the best ARGs ever created
@@zekiz774 I know nothing about that, so I can't say anything about it, but I do know that this definitely is NOT an ARG.
There needs to be audience participation for it to qualify. Where in this whole thing is there any of that?
it’s not even the fact that he makes these that’s awesome, it’s the fact that he’s able to watch the same show we watch but he’s able to see something off about it, and then able to connect the evidence from other episodes. It’s crazy i don’t know how he does it lol, i love this series so much
Exactlyy! Ik it takes ages to bro idk what I'd do
Its the muse
I like to do this with Steven Universe xP
@@BBWahoo there are some very dark and bad things about that show. The theories and facts are not as funny, it's extremely tragic
@@walmarp
Indeed
I really like how you’ve combined your love for cinematography into your work. You’re the best :)
At the big plot twist at the end, I realized that my "Alex Bale" theory about the unknown tentacle monster in his basement being a manifestation of the hate, negative comments, and people who want Alex to only post content related to his popular Spongebob Conspiracy may have just gone down the toilet.
That said, this was a very interesting and well-made video. Keep up the great work!
The basement Monsters is the Monsters spider cow from happy meat farms
I really think that the 8th theory is gonna be the "Flying Dutchman Theory" because in the Goofy Goober Theory, theres a random word generator that says "Robot Apocalypse and Ghost Pirate. Robot Apocalypse is the 7th theory and Ghost Pirate is the 8th theory
But thats just a prediction.
wh- what's meat muse spore theory gonna be?
I think it means that the Muse is the missing mutated creature from Happy Meat Farms but idk for sure.
@@kaiaska508 Why is everybody talking about meat farm? can someone explain
I'm so hyped with the Bubble Illumination one.
Maybe it’ll delve into the Dutchman’s past before dying
It's great that people are finally actually talking about Alex Bale. Before, people would just "wow" or gawk at how "true" these theories are.
In actuality, these theories are the works of a film analyst. The art of analysis in film is finding things that aren't actually there, and because he studied film in uni, of course he can construct these "theories" so well. He's good at finding motifs and forming something "real" around them.
@god's follower eh I’m not convinced that the writers are doing this intentionally… I am, however, impressed with Alex’s effort and ability to make it appear so
It’s all a calculated scheme from the Muse
@@nicolatressler9838 if u haven’t watched the mrs puff theory yet go watch it that one is insane
@@nicolatressler9838 Even if the writers aren’t intentionally hiding conspiracies, the patterns truly are there.
God I know right. From time to time I get a little sad about how long between videos it takes while we wait for a new one but the insane amount of thought and Research.. my God. It must take a lot to do this kind of shit so in depth and so often.
Soo if that realistic fish is a robot that mean Plankton knew about Mrs Puff ? 17:42
Well yes, but also no. Did you notice how the realistic fish (his name is either T. McTrout or Johnny Elaine according to my research) has a different voice in Mrs Puff flashback/nightmare vision? And not just any random voice, he has the same voice as Perch Perkins. I feel more like either Mrs Puff forgot what the original news anchor fish looked like and mixed him with Johnny Elaine/T. McTrout in her mind, or Plankton did something to the original news anchor fish and replaced him with our favorite realistic news anchor fish. Given this theory, the latter seems more the case..
At this point we're not even here for the actual theories but for the lore that comes with these videos (with exceptional filmography)
Yeah whatever
Fr lmao. It goes so deep and I love it.
Ikrrr
He’s multitasking the theories and story, because that was his favourite thing on his channel but didn’t grow as much popularity. The spongebob theories were a blast, so he could sprinkle in the thing he loved most.
Incredibly dumb voice it has tho it sounds like meat Patrick
Alex Blake is clearly a genius because this is the third time he's used some innocuous but well done series to push an underlying massive equally as amazing story. Absolutely love his work.
I love Alex Blake idk who this Bale guy is though
Also what were the other two times?
@@dracvich Jesus Christ, almost a full day without seeing that. I'm dumb as hell xD
@@dracvich Also, he has two other series, one he made in high school that was a series of commercials for different after school clubs at his school. I unfortunately can never remember the name of it. Then there's his Pizza Time Pizza ARG. The dude's a legend.
Hold yourself to this tile as a “film maker” not a spongebob theorist, we like your videos because your the maker of them other wise we wouldn’t be watching them. Make anything you want it’s the fact that your making them is what makes them so special.
This is an arg. The spongebob guy thing is part of the arg and all of that scene is also part of the arg you should look for inside the mind's vid on Alex bale
@@happyjay9168 That doesn't mean We can't Support him, I love His spongebob I think they're Hilarious and Intruiging but I do like what HE Loves to make, which is Film making. Sorry about me Rambling
@@happyjay9168 I don’t know many things about filming so that explains the two words, I just feel as if maybe he wants to diversify what he makes this year and a lot of creators do get into a lop at some point, plus I watched only a couple of his videos. I just noticed he puts a lot of passion into them and just thought I could give my personal opinion on how I see him.
Oh dang I forgot my “o”
It is an Arg. Not something Serious.
The fact that there is also a SpongeBob video game where the main theme is a robot invasion is an interesting parellel
I love how most of the Spongebob theories have to do with some mastermind manipulating the scenes. Really clever Alex
look up happy meat farms on youtube
that'll probably give a clue about that mastermind behind spongebob videos
@@marcosacurero8404 Lol yep, which is why I pointed out how clever it is the theories mimic that
i dont know how, but i never noticed that consistency beforehand and its really creepy considering where the theories come from in-universe, because it could mean one of two things, that the muse *wants* to be discovered, or that something is controlling even the muse itself
I love how this ARG is unfolding, and how the theories aline with the overarching story.
Edit: I've edited this comment because I mistook the camera shot of Alex from behind as his muse being a copy of him, turns out I get confused easily. Sorry to those who liked this!
Wait when do we get to see it?
@@user-jl7cz2pe6d When he thinks his muse is giving him the silent treatment, we see it only from the back, being careful to not see his face. That, or it's a shot choice to point out the dark surroundings and feel like a jarring switch of pace.
@@infiniteideassquared9102 Thank you.
Lol its alex, you can see the arm movement match up to when he starts pointing at them
It took me a second, sorry. It was so close to the end of that camera shot I didn't notice. I have edited my original comment to rectify my mistake.
The random bit from a The Theorizer video was hilarious. His whole thing is that you can't tell if him being mad is a bit or not (or at least *I* can't tell if it's a bit or not), and grabbing a tiny portion of a video is just perfect.
The Theorizer… Has he made a new theory yet tho?
7:00 make something preassure resistent and seal tight enough and it can 100% exist. Just when it breaks via open circuit now the entire system is shorted and you need rebuild it entierly.
Hi Alex, idk if you'll see this comment or not but i'm sure it's frustrating wanting to show off your art with people only wanting one thing. your talent for cinematography and filmaking is so not talked about enough! are you kidding!? i had goosebumps every time your cutscenes would show. but above all that, spongebob is my childhood and I always appreciate the theories
so true
U spittin facts Right here
@@Kappi__ what makes it so bad?
@@Kappi__ no you
@@Kappi__ ok anime pfp
It breaks my heart to see Alex think that people will unsubscribe if he starts focusing on things he is passionate about. I have been subscribed for a while now and no matter what he creates I always enjoy. Weather it’s horror films (my favorite out of all of his stuff) or theory’s. Either way people will support you Alex so do what you love!
No, it's because it's an arg. There's a monster in his house.
It's me, I'm those people. His skits aren't good. He has the acting skills of an 8th grader performing in a play they didn't want to be in.
@@shellum then why are you here, if you don’t enjoy a thing the person is doing, you just don’t watch their content
@@KingCrazyOne Spongebob theories. That's why I'm here. It's the only area in his content that has any actual talent behind it.
@@shellum so that’s flat out wrong.
“How To Defend Yourself From A Larger Opponent” and “How To Defend Your Home” in the search bar is so simply placed yet so important to the overall story is amazing storytelling. I love the tiny details as well as the story itself and its “monster” from your past videos so much. I love your storytelling and filmography! Cant wait to see more of the hidden story in the future Alex! :D
look up happy meat farms on youtube,that'll will problably give a proper explanation of what that muse thing is
there's a whole conspirations about this
Can we all agree that, sure his Spongebob theories are good but his MOVIES A WORK OF ART
