The '''Cyclops''' (portrayed by Neil Ross) is a large, male diver with vintage hardhat diving equipment who appeared in [[The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie]] as the tertiary antagonist who [[Plankton|Plankton]] sold [[King Neptune|Neptune]]'s crown to. The anonymous diver owns the dreaded [[Shell City]] and is feared by all inhabitants of the sea, mainly because he looks frightening, is gigantic compared to marine animals, captures sea creatures, and dries them out under a constantly burning heat lamp in Shell City to sell them as "smelly knick-knacks (as seen in the movie)." We discovered his existence in the beginning of the movie when [[Princess Mindy|Mindy]] warns our protagonists about the hazards of travelling to Shell City, the Cyclops being the biggest threat, she warns them not to let him catch them. Later in the movie, with not exactly knowing it, we finally see the heinous diver when he helped [[SpongeBob SquarePants|SpongeBob]] and [[Patrick Star|Patrick]] by stepping on [[Dennis (The Hitman)|Dennis]], crushing him with his boot Spongebob and Patrick called,"bigger boot", saving both heroes from Dennis (at the moment), but not from The Cyclops himself. Patrick was just about to make a run for it, when Spongebob notified him that the monstrous hardhat diver's "bigger boot" had saved them from a quick, but painful death, being stepped on by Dennis' spiked "big boot" so that way they would never find out that Plankton stole Neptune's crown. They showed gratitude towards the pernicious diver for saving them from Dennis about to kill the two, referring to the Cyclops originally as, "Stranger", for not knowing his true identity, and thinking they were completely safe with the unidentified giant. But happiness was soon crushed and realization struck Spongebob and Patrick when the Cyclops looked directly down at our two protagonists (most likely because he finally heard Spongebob when he asked,"Um, Stranger?"), discovering that this abnormally large, "Stranger", who saved them from the evil Dennis, was the even more atrocious Cyclops who guards the horrendous Shell City that Princess Mindy had warned them about. He then picked up both Spongebob and Patrick who tried to run away in a brief chase scene, but failed. Spongebob and Patrick fainted a couple minutes after they were captured, so the Cyclops decided to stuff them in a grubby bag to regain access to both hands so he could drive his boat back to his very own Shell City and proceeded to hold Spongebob and Patrick captive in a glass bowl. He displayed what he was going to do with the duo once he killed them by making a diorama of, "Alexander Clam Bell", out of a dead clam in front of the duo's glass bowl using his, "evil instruments of torture" (which was just googley eyes and glue he took out of his toolbox) while humming as if he had fun doing it.  Also the Cyclops scared Spongebob and Patrick for personal amusement by sneaking up behind them and stalking them until they notice. Once he had done these two things, he grabbed Spongebob and Patrick and placed them under his heat lamp so they would dry up and die. Before their death, they both cryed a single tear which rolled down the heat lamp's wire htat shorted out a power outlet that smoked causing the fire sprinklers to set off. Apparently they're in the bathroom too because the two proceed to lift Neptune's crown, you see the Cyclops (who was in the bathroom while the duo was slowly drying up) picking it up and giving Spongebob and Patrick a growl before the sea creatures the Cyclops had killed were revived and began to beat him up as revenge.

The Cyclops is very large, wears worn down, vintage hardhat diving gear (rough gloves, dented, brass helmet, weighted boots, grimy suit, faded understrap, slightly loose weight control belt, etc.) and doesn't even take it off on land, possibly because he is too excited about selling his knick-knacks or just to scare the marine animals he captures for entertainment or to maintain dominance among them. He is known as the Cyclops because the obvious assumption, made by fish and other marine animals, that he has one eye (which is really the single, florescent green window in his diving helmet)--a reference to the ancient Greek myths about Cyclopes.

The Cyclops gazing down at SpongeBob and Patrick in Shell City

The Cyclops (portrayed by Neil Ross) is a large, male hardhat diver that appeared in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie as the tertiary antagonist. This air breathing monster never takes off his gear, even on land, possibly because he is too excited about selling knick-knacks or to scare sea creatures for fun. The anonymous diver owns and works at the dreaded Shell City and is feared by all inhabitants of the sea, mainly because he looks frightening, is gigantic compared to marine animals, captures them, and dries them out under a constantly burning desk lamp in Shell City to dry them out and turn them into "smelly knick-knacks" that he can sell (as seen in the movie). He doesn't have any lines except for evil laughing, humming, "uh-oh," and "huh" when the dead sea creatures came proceeding to beat him up, but mostly you just hear the breathing from inside his helmet.

[edit] History

We first learn of the Cyclops' existence early in the movie when Mindy first mentioned him while she was warning our protagonists about the hazards of venturing out to Shell City, where Neptune's crown is being witheld. The Cyclops was said to guard Shell City and was described as giant when Mindy classified him as the worst of the hazards. Later in the movie, just when Dennis and his spiked "big boot" is about to step on SpongeBob and Patrick, we finally see the heinous diver appear, more specifically, his "bigger boot", (as SpongeBob and Patrick call it) step on Dennis in an ironic fashion, saving our duo from Dennis (at the moment), but unfortunately not from the Cyclops himself. Patrick is just about to make a run for it screaming "Bigger boot!" when SpongeBob notifies him that the hardhat diver's benefactor of a boot had saved their lives. They display gratitude towards the pernicious diver for saving them from Dennis, referring to the Cyclops originally as "Stranger" for not knowing the Cyclops' true identity at the time. But the Cyclops just stands there, looking for his next victims. Then fear and realization strike SpongeBob and Patrick when the Cyclops looks directly down at them (most likely because he finally heard SpongeBob when he said, "Uhh... Stranger?"), hands ready to grab. SpongeBob and Patrick then discover that this abnormally large "Stranger", who rescued them from the evil Dennis, is the even more monstrous and giant Cyclops who guards Shell City mentioned in Princess Mindy's warning. SpongeBob and Patrick try to run away, but with the diver's boots clomping down behind them, fail, and the Cyclops picks them up, gives them a long stare, and proceeds onward, abducting them to the surface. Our duo (who recently fainted) are stuffed in a bag, and driven to Shell City in the Cyclops' boat (as shown in script). The Cyclops then puts SpongeBob and Patrick in his glass bowl, and holds them captive in Shell City. First, he decides to scare our two heroes for entertainment, so he sneaks up behind them, stalks them a bit, exaggerates his breathing, and when SpongeBob and Patrick turn around, he scares the two and evilly laughs. He then takes out a small toolbox that SpongeBob refers to as his "evil instruments of torture." He takes glue and google eyes out, and answers SpongeBob's question about what his business is with them in front of the duo's glass bowl by making a humorous diorama of "Alexander Clam Bell" out of a dead clam, a play hat, a small rotary phone, and the craft tools he took out of his toolbox while happily humming to show them what he does to sea creatures and that they are next to be transformed into knick-knacks.

Apparently they're in the bathroom too because as the two proceeds to lift Neptune's crown, we see the Cyclops picking it up and giving SpongeBob and Patrick a growl before the sea creatures the Cyclops had killed are revived and begin to beat him up as revenge after being squirted in the face with glue. During the scene where the two ride David Hasselhoff, the Cyclops' "bigger boot" emerges from the water with Dennis on the boot's ratel.
