I still have a question though: why was this dragged on for so long?
I thought about this earlier today, and how we literally couldn't get in contact with Lorenzo for months on end. It would have ended so much faster if Reagal employees didn't actively ignore or block us.
If I had to take a guess, I'd say it was a combination of being overwhelmed by the popularity of a movie that literally didn't exist, and also not knowing who the "good guys" were in regards to getting information. I'm sure they were swamped every day with social media messages and they didn't know how to handle it.
Although a simple tweet suggesting "to whom it may concern, we have no information regarding ADWSS at this time" would have sufficed to a certain extent.
I just thought of this because at the end of the video Mr. Orange is like "I think I covered everything" (which he did a graceful job at), and then he leaves the opportunity to email him with further questions (which was directed at you guys?).
Really the only person I'm directing that Q at is Mr. Orange. Now that we know the details, it makes no sense why everyone acted so weird when questioned about this.
Anyway, I have this weird theory that Mr. Orange is Daniel Sean.
Looks like we REALLY reached the end of an era now.
Um...
So what now?
We've gotta find Riku and King Mickey.
I'm satisfied. I just wanted a conclusion, whether that meant it existing or not.
I love Mr. Orange. What a sane guy to be the mastermind behind this. He shared my same sentiments: "even though we were in contact with Lorenzo, everything was still so unclear".
I still have a question though: why was this dragged on for so long?
Aren't they going to get sued if one of the main characters is clearly SpongeBob?
omg, the Ongoing Mysteries video now reminded me of the original Lorenzo calls: "The movie was out for a short period of time", "We're going to remake (a movie that was never made) it"... right.
The title of the LMW article needs to be updated as well; it still gives a gesture that the movie exists.
btw, why didn't this hit the notice board?
Also, didn't Jorge Pacheco say he had nothing to do with ADWS? That the drawing was commissioned for something else?
The sad part is not that the film doesn't exist, but that the cool back lore is going to be forgotten.
Technically. If ADWSS is considered lost media, I guess canceled media counts too.
The thing is, it WASN'T lost media. People only thought it was. I'd argue, however, that it's article deserves to stay because of it's historical significance in the Lost Media community..
Bernie, you hit the nail on its head my friend. ADWS is no longer lost media, but the article deserves to stay for historical purposes.

I'm kind of thinking Lorenzo is messing with us on purpose as a form of viral marketing. He reaps more benefits from this search than we'd think. If you think about it, this search is pretty much an advertisement for him.
Not the first time I've seen this.
Excellent point, though this completely contradicts the fact that he just made Bernie and Ongoing Mysteries remove their very popular videos on the matter because he saw them as slanderous.
♪ Good day, good day, I'm glad you came my way... ♪
Welp, speculation time. Ongoing Mysteries is the channel for ADWS, and they recently removed their big video on the topic (which I thought was amazing), so maybe they struck some kind of deal with Lorenzo where he wanted them to remove that in return for something.
So how fucking ironic; the Ongoing Mysteries video is now lost media.
Edit: It's unlisted.
Why I Unlisted Ongoing Mysteries Episode 1
It wasn't easy having to unlist this video. But all in all it was the right thing to do. We are in contact with Lorenzo and he saw our video on the movie. He found the video hurtful, distasteful, and all around incorrect when it came to why Lorenzo created Reagal Films and his other company, Yae. He created Reagal out of his love for film. He wanted to make the movies he wanted to make and release them for the world to see. He created Yae! so he could create health food products. He is an advocate for people's health. He didn't create these companies as a means for money laundering nor for a prostitution ring. He respectfully asked the video be removed...so it was. We respect Lorenzo Holley...he is a good man. So it was out of respect and understanding that I removed the video. My friend Bedhead Bernie is going to remove his video on the subject as well. We will be redoing episode one. I am going to figure out whether it be about A Day With SpongeBob or not. The calls with Lorenzo will not be removed from our channel, and another update on A Day With SpongeBob SquarePants will be released in the near future so stay tuned. And thank you to you all for understanding.
So they actually got to know Lorenzo more... I wonder what that call was like.
Eh, you guys are kinda killing the creepypasta vibe here. Now it's like "The Life and Times of Lorenzo Holley". So all of the weird stuff associated with him and his companies is just coincidental?
God, what if the movie comes out, it isn't the worst thing in the world, and everyone just forgets about the amazing search that happened for it. Why did Lorenzo stay silent for so long? He could've put an end to this shit from the beginning.

I was more thinking that the kid would go through an office, and wait for Spongebob to meet, but the agents say that he's going to be late because of some problem, so the kid is bored and wanders through hallways and rooms, meeting people who are supposedly affiliated with Spongebob's carrier, and everytime, they tell him a bit about the history of Spongebob's rise to fame - as in, who were the people who created the animated series, and how it became popular. And in the end, Spongebob is never seen because he has a big appointment somewhere else.
Well judging by the quality of the other films produced by Reagal I wouldn't be surprised if that isn't far off (although you forgot the random Bill Cosby interludes)
Sup Vanessa.
Obviously nothing can be trusted at this point, but none of that matches up with the plot synopsis.
Being specific is the key. The article about the "Ice Climbers" lacks clarification: is it about the assets and code that enables the characters to be properly implemented in the game, or just about their absence from the final product? What's the condition to call them "found"?
It's their absence from the final product. The creator confirmed they were working at one time but scrapped because all characters had to run on both the 3DS and Wii U, and the 3DS couldn't handle them so they were cut from the game. There is no condition to call them "found", unless you raid Bandai-Namco and search for a development build.
Shouldn't that be a good indicator; that it has to be something you can find, or it at least has to be practical (not doing illegal things to find it, lol)?
Lost/cancelled stuff kind of go hand-in-hand, but this isn't the Cancelled Media Wiki.
A Tin Toy Christmas - from what I understood, it didn't go very far into production, rendering what would be the final product non-existent. Again, what are we looking for? 3D assets? Reference material? Possible animation?
This is key right here, this is key. This isn't a Wiki where we reminisce about cancelled things.
Searching for video game betas and stuff that was never meant to be released just doesn't seem practical. I think the people who make those articles are just making them as a history lesson, rather than actually something to search for. Again, it's not the Cancelled Media Wiki.
I don't really believe cancelled/cut stuff deserves a spot on the Wiki when it can't be found, or rather it wasn't mean to be released to the public at any point in time.
