I think the Spongebob movie was a few years too late, like 5 years after the show premiered. By the time it came out, I had lost interest. South Park was great timing, though; only 2 years after it started, and afaik still holds the Guinness World Record for most swear words in an animated film.
They had the same or fewer employees when they were making games, though.
