Don't Worry, A Minecraft Movie Is Getting Its Own Popcorn Bucket Too
Remember those themed popcorn buckets that were all the rage? Get ready for another one! The upcoming Minecraft movie is jumping on the concession novelty bandwagon with its own unique offerings, available during the film's theatrical run.
According to images shared by DiscussingFilm on X (formerly Twitter), shown below, the Minecraft movie will feature a TNT box popcorn bucket and a chicken jockey drink cup. These appear to be exclusive to Cinemark theaters in the U.S., but other theaters might have their own Minecraft themed treats. We'll have to wait and see what other goodies are in store for fans.

This Minecraft merchandise follows a trend that started with the Rise of Skywalker R2-D2 popcorn bucket in 2019. The viral success of that bucket sparked a trend, creating a fun—though perhaps somewhat overdone and pricey—theatrical tradition. But hey, if it keeps people going to the movies, I'm all for it.
