Remember themed popcorn buckets? Of course you do! Well, the excitement continues as the upcoming Minecraft movie is set to introduce its own line of concessions novelties, available during its theatrical run. According to images shared by DiscussingFilm on X / Twitter, the Minecraft movie is bringing a unique twist with a TNT box popcorn bucket and a chicken jockey drink container. These items are exclusive to Cinemark theaters across the United States, but we're eager to see what other theaters have in store for Minecraft fans.

These Minecraft-themed novelties are the latest addition to a trend that became a national sensation starting with the 2019 'Rise of Skywalker' R2-D2 popcorn bucket. The viral success of that snack container over six years ago sparked a wave of excitement among theater executives, leading to a fun, though somewhat overdone and pricey, modern theatrical tradition. If these collectibles bring more people to the cinemas, it's a win in my book!
