If you’ve ever wondered if the upcoming The Bob’s Burgers Movie was going to act as a standalone story that doesn’t connect to the series, it seems that the writers have purposefully hidden Easter eggs that build-up to its release. Eagle-eyed fans noticed that a crack was starting to grow just outside of their restaurant, and it was included to build-up up the sinkhole that is the main storyline for the film.
Director Bernard Derriman revealed that they definitely mapped out how the crack would continue to grow in the press conference. He highlights that it’ll reach its peak in the episode before the film hits theaters, highlighting more that viewers will be rewarded for checking out the latest episode before watching the film.
