Remember those themed popcorn buckets that have become a staple at movie theaters? Well, the upcoming Minecraft movie is jumping on the bandwagon with its own unique concessions novelties, set to be available 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, perfectly paired with a chicken jockey drink container—a treat that fans of the game will surely appreciate. These exclusive items are slated to be available at Cinemark theaters across the United States, but we're still waiting to see what other theaters might have in store for Minecraft enthusiasts.

This trend of movie-themed concessions began gaining momentum with the viral R2-D2 popcorn bucket from 2019's Rise of Skywalker. That bucket's popularity sparked a new tradition in theaters, which, while somewhat overdone and pricey, continues to draw fans to the cinematic experience. If it means more people enjoying movies in theaters, I'm all for it.
