Thanks to Dune: Half Two, and dozens of movies after the actual fact, the themed popcorn bucket has turn out to be a staple of the multiplex. Anytime a brand new film comes out, followers now suppose “Effectively, what is the popcorn bucket going to be?”

The reply to that query got here a couple of instances this week with the official begin of the summer time film season.

You’ve gotta love the Pink Guardian helmet however the limo? And the asterix? Come on. Too cool.

Subsequent up, Mission: Unattainable- The Closing Reckoning. This one can solely be unlocked with a key, identical to the all-important submarine within the film.

That’s each actually attention-grabbing and in addition doubtlessly irritating. How quickly till you lose the important thing? For me, it might be instantly. Transferring on a bit extra conventional, however nonetheless lovely, is The best way to Prepare Your Dragon.
