A world premiere exclusive
Inside Out 2

Although average viewers may not get this collectible, other themed buckets are available in select theaters.
Numerous films, including
Deadpool & Wolverine
, are releasing unique popcorn buckets as part of a growing trend.
Unique popcorn buckets have become popular recently. Unfortunately, this one from Inside Out 2’s world premiere is something that regular average viewers are unlikely to get. This is a shame since not only does it look cool, but it’s also convenient. Fandango shared a video on social media, showcasing the exclusive popcorn bucket that was distributed during the Inside Out 2 world premiere. It’s shaped like the control module in Riley’s mind, and it even has a cupholder (a reference from the film’s trailer). And unlike the other popcorn buckets with its “questionable” design choices, it seems Disney decided to keep it simple and family-friendly, while also adding a lid to keep the popcorn fresh.
Unfortunately, this unique collectible isn’t something that will be purchased by the average moviegoer. But other unique popcorn buckets are on offer in select theaters. Regal has revealed its Anger-themed popcorn bucket. Meanwhile, AMC is offering a light-up memory orb cup with a mystery emotion topper. Not as great compared to the ones distributed during the premiere, but it’s enough for those who want to take home a collectible container.
Numerous films have been releasing a variety of unique popcorn buckets lately. Aside from Inside Out 2, Deadpool and Wolverine has revealed its bucket design, and director Shawn Levy claimed that it was “a stroke of genius.” Even Saw X released its bucket that features Jigsaw or Billy the Puppet’s clown face. It seems this trend of novelty collectibles will not stop, and only time will tell which other movies will follow suit.
