As a seasoned gamer and movie enthusiast with a soft spot for unique collectibles, I must admit that the latest wave of movie-themed popcorn buckets has me absolutely spellbound! From the controversial yet iconic Sandworm bucket from Dune 2 to the hilariously suggestive Deadpool and Wolverine versions, it seems like the industry is pushing the envelope in more ways than one.
The latest accessory to have with you to watch 2024 movie releases in your local theater is movie-themed popcorn buckets. They’ve become a viral sensation ever since Dune 2’s popcorn bucket looked very much like a sex toy. While Wicked’s new popcorn bucket isn’t NSFW enough to become an SNL sketch, they still look absolutely gorgeous.
It’s surprising how the popcorn bucket from “Dune 2” ended up having such an…erotic appearance. The Sandworm popcorn bucket became so popular that it inspired other iconic characters like Deadpool and Wolverine to create their own risqué versions. In fact, even Saturday Night Live was moved by the sexually suggestive movie theater item from “Dune 2” and created a digital sketch depicting two high school students losing their virginity to that very bucket!
Hey there! I’ve got some exciting news as a gamer and movie enthusiast. Regal Cinemas has rolled out special popcorn buckets for the upcoming musical film “Wicked”. Now, these buckets might not be so scandalous that they could pass as an SNL skit, but let me tell you, they’re nothing short of stunning.
I’ve never come across a popcorn bucket as stunningly beautiful as these ones. They truly deserve widespread recognition, considering the skill required to make them appear so splendid. From Regal Cinemas’ promotional images, it seems there’s a Glinda tumbler adorned with a topper resembling The Good Witch of the North. Nearby is an Elphaba tin that exudes shades of green and gold.
Additionally, there’s a counterpart collection featuring an Elphaba tumbler and cover, along with a Glinda pail. Among them, the one that caught my eye is the popcorn container shaped like a lantern, adorned with golden frames and images of Glinda and Elphaba strolling together. Carrying this Wicked-themed popcorn bucket to watch the latest film will certainly give you a sense of being a resident in Oz.
Looking at the stunning design of the Wicked-themed popcorn bucket, it’s clear that a risqué popcorn container isn’t necessary to capture attention. In fact, many movie-inspired popcorn buckets have been visually impressive without being explicit. For instance, the Beetlejuice 2 Sandworm bucket was an exciting find, and the Terrifier 3 bucket, featuring Art the Clown, is quite chilling. The Gladiator 2 bucket, adorned with Maximus Decimus Meridius’ helmet, is another example of these creative designs. The imagination behind each popcorn bucket leaves me in awe, making me eager to see what new ideas will be unveiled for future films. If only we had such unique options when Barbarella was released!
The new Wicked popcorn bucket isn’t exactly funny or NSFW to become a future SNL one day, but I still think it’s gorgeous enough to look at. Whether you’re Team Glinda or Team Elphaba, holding the Wicked-themed bucket while watching the two witches sing tunes will make you feel magical yourself. The long-awaited musical movie will be ready for you to summon tickets for when it hits theaters on November 22nd.
