Bubble Poppers Forever

Bubble Poppers Forever was a movie/special based on the spin-off NKC, which was set to release in January 2023. The film was written by Locknloaded23, and takes place after the 3rd season.
==Plot==
Bikini Bottom's most notorious gang, long since disbanded, reforms together to take back their rightful place as the baddest gang to ever exist.
==History & Production==
=== Pre-Production ===
NKC's first episode, titled "Welcome To New Kelp City', released April 27th, 2018. At that time, the series was still owned by SpongeBot678. When the series released, current series owner Locknloaded23 asked if the Bubble Poppin' Boys, a gang of greasers who appeared in the SpongeBob episode the spin-off was based on, would make any sort of appearance; Bot confirmed that they would not be in the series. Since the spin-off was very inactive for over 2 years, Bot decided to look for users to hand the show off to. 
=== Production ===
On January 12th of 2022, Bot decided to give the show to Lock, who announced that the show's second season would be continued after being incomplete for 2 years, and that there would be 7 new episodes written. 
From the beginning of her acquisition of the show, Lock wanted to find some way to incorporate the Bubble Poppin' Boys into the show, but couldn't decide on any conclusive way to introduce them; Instead, she had one of the former gang members appear in the infamous episode MKFC, as a trenchocat who offers Krabs a job starring in necrophilia films. This former member dies in the episode New Kelp Anarchy, after Krabs kills him in anger after being fired (and begins having sex with his corpse). 
Season 3 of the show eventually rolled around on February 26th of 2022, with the episode From Rags To Riches To Rags Again, and the Bubble Poppers still were absent throughout the entire season. However, shortly after the penultimate episode of the season released, titled Finishing The Job, Lock decided to finally try and find a good way to introduce the Bubble Poppers; she decided that the best way to introduce all the ideas she had for them was to make a full-on special/movie centered around them, and during April of 2022, production had officially begun. 
The film/special was unannounced for quite a while, until Lock officially revealed to the public the card for the film/special on April 9th of 2022, via a blog post, while also announcing in the same blog post that this would be the official series finale of the show. On the same day, she made the page for the special.
The official final episode of NKC, being the season 3 finale, released on April 11th 2022, and Lock announced the same day that the movie would officially enter production.
On June 14, 2022, Lock announced on the SBFW Discord that the movie would release in January 2023.
=== Writing ===
==== Plot 1 ====
Lock began working on the official plot outline for the movie April 9th of 2022, intending for it to be done before the end of April. However, the writing process became very slow and muddled, with numerous production delays, and the first plot wasn't finished until May 5th of 2022. Lock then announced that writing phases for the film were officially beginning, but she found it hard to write, as she was heavily unsatisfied with what she wrote. Still heavily dissatisfied and not being able to get work done, Lock decided to completely start over with the plot outline. She announced via a blog post that the movie would receive a delay in production as she began reworking the story.
==== Plot 2 ====
On May 6th, development of the second plot commenced. Lock found herself way more satisfied with the new plot than the previous one, so she got it done on May 8th, only 2 days afterwards. Writing commenced the next day on May 9th of 2022.
== Accidental Leaking ==
On May 27th, 2022, Lock was asked to release the movie early as a joke. Lock thought it would be funny, so she released the movie, making the link to access it invite-only so only she could read it. Then, she made a fake document, replacing everything with just the word "porn" (and rewriting the first line of the script so the film begun with pornography). Lock decided to take the joke one step further, and make the link so that everyone can view it, and posting it to a private channel on the original SBFW Discord server. After posting it in this hidden channel, Lock teased that the film was posted in the original server, as the users began looking for it.
However, the server owner, SpongeBot678, decided to play along with the joke, briefly making the channel readable to everyone before privating it again. What Bot didn't realize, however, was that the link to view the document was changed, meaning any user who saw the document could access it and read the film, much to Lock's dismay.
In response, Lock purged the entirety of the document, and put the film on hiatus so she can decide whether or not to rewrite the film or put the original contents of the document in a separate document. Lock would later comment on the incident with "this prank backfired horribly."
