I’m not much of a popcorn guy, but I’ve been weirdly delighted watching the popcorn bucket arms race escalate, with major blockbusters often trying to outdo others with concession stand flexes. We’ve already seen some truly unhinged designs lately, like the $80 Galactus bucket for The Fantastic Four: First Steps and the viral NSFW Dune 2 bucket. Well, the soon-to-be-released Avatar: Fire and Ash is officially entering the chat with a popcorn bucket that comes with quite the hefty price tag.
Both AMC and Regal have unveiled the Avatar: Fire and Ash Banshee Popcorn Bucket, a limited-edition collectible that’s part snack holder and part display piece. Modeled after the luminous mountain banshees from the sci-fi epic, the bucket features a massive wing span and enough detail to make it look like it could take flight mid–movie marathon. The only thing more jaw-dropping than the design might be the price.
