Minecraft Movie Gets Exclusive Popcorn Bucket

Remember those themed popcorn buckets? Of course, you do. The trend continues with the upcoming Minecraft movie, which is set to delight fans with its own unique concessions novelties during its theatrical run.

According to images shared by DiscussingFilm on X / Twitter, the Minecraft movie will feature a TNT box as its popcorn bucket, accompanied by a chicken jockey drink container—a nod to the game's iconic elements.

These Minecraft-themed novelties are the latest in a trend that began with the virality of the 2019 Rise of Skywalker R2-D2 popcorn bucket. That snack container sparked a national craze over six years ago, setting off a modern theatrical tradition that has become both popular and somewhat expensive. If these unique offerings encourage more people to enjoy the theatrical experience, then they're certainly worth it.
