Actually, the reason he lives in a pineapple is because pineapple is used in Polynesian crafts, and Hillenberg thought he would like the smell of a pineapple home
The show's aeathethic is a mix of hawaiian/polynesian mix with old retrofuturistic underwater exploration, you can see it on the metalnbuildings of the city and on plankton's tech
You can absolutely tell that a scientist geek made SpongeBob and it would have never been as good if Hillenburg WASN'T a nerd. Excellent art direction.
it cant be a mix of hawaiian and polynesian because hawaiian is a subculture of polynesian. thats like saying italy is a mix of italian and european culture
@@Rootiga thanks for the correction, i'm open to learn, so let's call it polynesian. Personally a think bionicle did a even better job with the polynesian culture
Easter Island is considered Polynesian like Hawaii despite being close to South America, because the natives came there from the west across the Pacific.
Even the Hawaiian music and tracks really helped to sell the atmosphere of the show. But the flowers in the sky and even in the wallpaper of the homes also gave me Hawaii vibes.
It truly is sad that SpongeBob no longer fits the relaxed and inviting Hawaiian vibes of the earlier episodes. It produced such a unique feeling that no other cartoon could. Along with the laughter and such of a regular cartoon, the Hawaiian aesthetic almost made you part of the land somehow? Like you were there with the characters, however they couldn't see you. You were one with the Hawaiian vibes, but without getting into the antics of the characters.
I always wondered how the references to Hawaii, Texas, and pirate talk translated over to foreign audiences watching foreign dubs. I mention pirate talk because it's more or less just based on the accent in south-west England, where there were many ports that pirates would've used. However, that's specific to an English speaker's idea of what a pirate sounds like.
I started watching the show since episode 1 aired and stopped at around season 4-5. I’m glad I lived through SpongeBob’s Goledn age and not the mess that it is now
Squid should have his own show, and here’s the plot: Squidward finally decides to move for real. He leaves the pacific altogether. The show will be a mix of squid being squid (doing art and music and just indulging in life) and stumbling into some adventures
according to Google, the Easter Island in the South Pacific has a distance of around 7.221 km from Hawaii, which should be somewhere in the range of 4.500 miles (give or take a few). Maybe the hawaiian vibe was chosen because many people might almost only know hawaiian music and aesthetics when thinking about any given region in the Pacific Ocean. It´s just like how many people automatically think of certain types of music when they think of France for example, or Germany, India, China or the deep south of the US.
Easter Island is most def not Hawaii, however both areas were settled by Polynesian navigators, and it seems to me Spongebob has more generally a Hawaiian/Polynesian inspired aesthetic.
I like the tikiland ending. The way SpongeBob and Patrick endure pain just so Squidward is happy shows how much they want(ed) to help him be happy. I think its a nice touch, not perfect but nice.
I'd be so much more likely to watch the newer seasons if they had more Hawaiian music just because the vibe. The clip you showed of Patrick pouring a drink and chilling is actually great
i’ve always resonated with Spongebob’s Hawaiian and Pacific aesthetics in general, especially since i was around a lot of that kind of style and cultures during childhood when Spongebob was first airing as someone who was raised by the South Bay CA area it makes sense since there’s a number of Hawaiian and Pacific Islander communities in the area
I really loved the calming nature of the early seasons. I even listened to some of the audiobook versions of some episodes as a kid to fall asleep. And I think the hawaiian music really helped a lot. I wish we could get something like that again. Why is modern Spongebob refusing to do anything remotely similar to the early seasons again? Why is it so stubborn to stick to the zany over-the-top no-breathing-room style? Criticism of modern Spongebob is some of the most unanimous media criticism in recent media discourse history after all. I guess that could be a potential discussion video in itself.
That show was also chill and happy like spongebob. Which was good as a breather after the dbz like x and y, but I do wish they went back to seriousness for journeys.
I’m not sure if we have a name for that part of the cinema in English At the very least I’ve never needed to refer to it specifically. You know what, it’s probably Lobby. Like a hotel lobby. It’s defined as a room which connects several other rooms or corridors, often at or near the entrance of a public building. Edit: I googled it, this is correct. It’s either called a lobby or, more formally, a foyer
I never noticed the 3 different roofs on Mr. Krabs’ house. I guess I never paid that much attention but I always thought it was just an anchor with the pointy parts that anchors have
Actually, I like that the mid seasons started using songs that felt more SpongeBob cartoony over the Hawaiian music I mean I’m a fan of both, but I prefer stuff like slide whistle stooges, wahine wobble, Marlin madness, and others luckily there are also some that are a Fusion of the two like Aloha Bikini bottom
Man your cooking something. i used to be a reviewer, but then i retired a bit and i wanna come back. But i dont think ill get alot of views. When you blow up make sure to keep on cooking with these videos. You have something special
I guess you could also make a Argument that there's a third Aesthetic, which could be called Trashcore or something similar (Car Muffler Houses, the Chum Bucket being a actual Bucket.....)
i think its both sad and rediculous that newer seasons seem to just completely forget and ignore that they are UNDERWATER! In older episodes, when things like fire came up, they often joked about it in a self aware fashion, or they would drink a glass of water by swooshing a glass through the "air", etc.. these days its just unironic and without care or consideration, and that ticks me off
Easter Island (not Eastern Island) is in Polynesia, the southern pacific ocean, much like Hawaii. Though Easter Island, or Rapanui as the natives call it, is owned by Chile and not the USA
Modern SpongeBob got rid of the old seasons' amazing tone and atmosphere. It feels like I have to be only sensory overloaded and only super happy which makes it very tiring out and feels painful to watch.
@@awespongebob I think you should re-upload the video without that music but with the audio, because no offence, the silence ruins the video a little. I really love your vids and wanna hear what you wanna say, especially something like this which nobody really talks about something that there aren't many videos on :(
Could we get a pinned comment or something about the portions of the video with muted audio? I know its probably not an error and is due to the copyright issues, but to not see it acknowledged is kinda lame.
Sad to see even the hawaiian music in the background barely appears anymore. The whole vibe just completely switches in those modern seasons, not just animation, writing and so on but even the original asthetics of the show such as the background music. They completely overuse those boring "cartoony tracks" nowadays and replaced most hawaiian tracks with them. Kinda sad to realize that.

Some clips in the middle of the video are muted due to copyrighted music in the episode
you said in video that they are copyrighted and still fall from it? 😕
Yeah, the music is strong in "Enchanted Tiki Dreams," but also a big target for copyright.
Rip
The Hawaiian aesthetic is also why Spongebob lives in a pineapple, since they're a common motif in Hawaiian illustrations.
Patrick always wears swim trunks with a Hawaiian flower pattern.
Actually, the reason he lives in a pineapple is because pineapple is used in Polynesian crafts, and Hillenberg thought he would like the smell of a pineapple home
So, that explains it.
The show's aeathethic is a mix of hawaiian/polynesian mix with old retrofuturistic underwater exploration, you can see it on the metalnbuildings of the city and on plankton's tech
You can absolutely tell that a scientist geek made SpongeBob and it would have never been as good if Hillenburg WASN'T a nerd. Excellent art direction.
Another good example of retrofuturism is the buses in SpongeBob

@@raidenstark315 Oh you mean Bionic Chronicles?

yes, and tikis aren't Hawaiian either. I think a more appropriate term would be Polynesian Aesthetic
@@waspsandwich6548it’s like orientalism for islands
Even the Hawaiian music and tracks really helped to sell the atmosphere of the show.
But the flowers in the sky and even in the wallpaper of the homes also gave me Hawaii vibes.
The flowers in the sky are actually supposed to be jelly fish. There are supposed to be like clouds I guess.
The ending song from "Jellyfish Jam" had a Hawaiian vibe.
I have been obssessively looking for the shirt Steven Hillenburg is wearing where he "holds" spongebob

Yup
SpongeBob season 1 is the ultimate comfort cartoon.
One day ill gaslight myself into thinking the Hey in the intro says Awe
... HEY
I take the "Hey!" as an expression of awe.
Awe, true to Caesar
I was literally just thinking that last night, lol.
"Awe!" says Hey.
SpongeBob aesthetic is so nostalgic and comforting to me
Enchanted tiki dream is one of the best post movie episodes.
One of the best episodes period
@@abrahamlincoln1600 I’d say it can easily stand toe to toe with early spongebob
The music is one of the thinks that make SpongeBob episodes so awesome. The early seasons gives me a calm nostalgic feeling.
SpongeBob best anime, cartoon, adult film, best movie, best show.
This is perfection.
Adult film???
suponjibobu sukueapantsu
@@sashimi879 Sandy's Cheeks were backshotted ;>
"lobby" might be a better word for the main space in a theatre
spongebob also had a bit of a rockabilly vibe at times that I dig

My case too, but i quit around season 7 when the show reached modern simpsons level of quality
Same here
Season 4-5 and 9-12 are great
Spongebob episodes today aren't even that bad
SpongeBob isn't as bad as it once was.
Modern SpongeBob is going to bring back the Chrome world from SB-129 in an upcoming episode. That deserves a video from you.
Iv seen people disliking that idea but it could be a possible new time travel episode and if people wanted "continuity" then there it is
The Patrick Star Show episode "The Yard Sale" had chrome in it as well.
Squid should have his own show, and here’s the plot: Squidward finally decides to move for real. He leaves the pacific altogether. The show will be a mix of squid being squid (doing art and music and just indulging in life) and stumbling into some adventures
I allways know SpongeBob and Hawaii have Connections. This is why I love SpongeBob and Hawaii Shirts

SpongeBob got me into Surf Rock like Dick Dale and his Del-tones,
Super based.
me 2
this is why enchanted tiki dreams is the best episode past the first 5 seasons fight me
There are still episodes I like from season 9, that’s as far as I’ll go tho
SpongeBob soundtrack is wonderful. I can't believe we got to grow up with such good music.
Squidward house has an emoji: 🗿
I just realised that squidward's house is the first moai I ever saw...🗿
Spongebob's house too 🍍
🧽
🪨 🗿 🍍
enchanted tiki dreams was literally my cousins and my fav episode, we had it recorded in the tv so that we could play it whenever she came over.
yoooo dude i love your videos they're so chill
There's sections of the video where the audio randomly cuts out.
Yt music copyright censorship type deal, I imagine.
It saddens me how much they just torture squidward these days. I can't stand it. I miss these older episodes.
I listened to the Spotify playlist of all the Hawaiian songs in SpongeBob, and it’s nice knowing the names of the songs.
I always felt drawn to the Hawaiian aesthetic when I watched Spongebob as a kid. No idea why.
I like the tikiland ending. The way SpongeBob and Patrick endure pain just so Squidward is happy shows how much they want(ed) to help him be happy. I think its a nice touch, not perfect but nice.
I was just thinking about this channel so I'm happy to see a new upload ❤
I'd be so much more likely to watch the newer seasons if they had more Hawaiian music just because the vibe. The clip you showed of Patrick pouring a drink and chilling is actually great
And surf rock music too. That made up so much of early Spongebob's identity and now they don't even play it
I don’t have a wife
Real
Stay strong, king.
Relatable
Oh wow! That is relatable!

Hello Bikini Body from Season 8 has a great Hawaiian aesthetic.
Bubblestand is still my favorite episode
Today I make a living playing pedal steel guitar.
The origin of my love for that instrument is hearing lap steel in season one of SpongeBob
Loving the videos bro, i often smoke and fall asleep to your channel bro
Tgis communitz is really cool just man of culture gathering
I hope the creator somehow gets rich through this stuff he is a true man of culture
This spongebob hawaiian aesthetic is something that I wanna achieve one day
U forget about the grocery store walls

Another show that does a Hawaiian aesthetic good is Pokémon The Series: Sun & Moon.
That show was also chill and happy like spongebob. Which was good as a breather after the dbz like x and y, but I do wish they went back to seriousness for journeys.
this Hawaiian style makes the show great to unwind to
Getting high and watching these videos is pure bliss.
Soundtracks are the backbone of franchises.
SpongeBob was the reason why Hawaiian Culture still alive.
I’m not sure if we have a name for that part of the cinema in English
At the very least I’ve never needed to refer to it specifically.
You know what, it’s probably Lobby. Like a hotel lobby. It’s defined as a room which connects several other rooms or corridors, often at or near the entrance of a public building.
Edit: I googled it, this is correct. It’s either called a lobby or, more formally, a foyer
Atleast easter island is in the same ocean
I never noticed the 3 different roofs on Mr. Krabs’ house. I guess I never paid that much attention but I always thought it was just an anchor with the pointy parts that anchors have
In the videogames, the breakable objects are tikis
Actually, I like that the mid seasons started using songs that felt more SpongeBob cartoony over the Hawaiian music I mean I’m a fan of both, but I prefer stuff like slide whistle stooges, wahine wobble, Marlin madness, and others luckily there are also some that are a Fusion of the two like Aloha Bikini bottom
Weeeellcome to Squidward's tiki laaaand
Man your cooking something. i used to be a reviewer, but then i retired a bit and i wanna come back. But i dont think ill get alot of views. When you blow up make sure to keep on cooking with these videos. You have something special
That part of a movie theater is called the lobby.
the aesthetic / music is great, also great video :D
None can describe how hard Happy Jose goes
hey my favorite spongebob guy is back!
8:36 speaking of that PL-1314 is coming out in July 15
Squidward got a win in the end for once, that's a rather rare occurrence though!
There is a ancient greek atmosphere too
I enjoy the tropical aesthetic, but I'm still team nautical, so I hope you'll make a video on the nautical aesthetic too.
Finally someone made a video about this.
Easter Island is Polynesian, which is a cultural group which Hawaii is in, like Croatia is in the Slavic culture group.
I guess you could also make a Argument that there's a third Aesthetic, which could be called Trashcore or something similar (Car Muffler Houses, the Chum Bucket being a actual Bucket.....)
i think its both sad and rediculous that newer seasons seem to just completely forget and ignore that they are UNDERWATER!

The tiki land song is my fave, after that is this kitchens not the same without you
audio cut out like a gazillion times😂
Am I the only one who thinks this guy sounds like the brother of the SpongeBob narrator?
Im team nautical but i love both
(Easter Island is property of Chile)
7:51 By the way, I think you were looking for the word "lobby"
Easter Island (not Eastern Island) is in Polynesia, the southern pacific ocean, much like Hawaii. Though Easter Island, or Rapanui as the natives call it, is owned by Chile and not the USA
love your analysis
7:56 it's called the lobby. If you're ever forget, just remember the song, let's all go to the lobby

i put the sky flowers on my grad cap along with some of the jellyfish ☺️
9:52 I love to listen to that 🎶
I love this
love your videos
There are random spots near the early-middle of thr video where it is silent. The parts where you talk about season 7 and something related to tikis.
Copyrighted music :(
@@awespongebob Ah well... still cool video!

SpongeBob is a great show, but i just don't like that Nickelodeon is milking the franchise because of how popular it became.
When is the squidward house video dropping?
In 2 weeks so the video after the next one!
Easter island is in Chile.
