Remember those awesome themed popcorn buckets? Get ready for another one! The upcoming Minecraft movie is jumping on the concession novelty bandwagon with its own unique offerings, available during the film's theatrical run.
According to images shared by DiscussingFilm on X (formerly Twitter), shown below, the Minecraft movie will feature a TNT box popcorn bucket and a chicken jockey drink cup. These items appear to be exclusive to Cinemark theaters in the U.S., but other theaters may have their own Minecraft surprises in store. We'll have to wait and see what other goodies they roll out for fans.

This Minecraft-themed merchandise follows a trend that started with 2019's Rise of Skywalker R2-D2 popcorn bucket. The viral success of that bucket sparked a new theatrical tradition – fun, but perhaps a bit overdone and pricey. Still, if it keeps people going to the movies, it's a win-win.
