There’s no better accompaniment to a good movie than a big helping of popcorn. Make sure that you’re snacking in style with collectable popcorn buckets, which have become extremely popular lately. Today we’ll be checking out some of the different popcorn buckets produced for “Deadpool & Wolverine”, which hit theaters over the weekend. Resellers are already making tons of money flipping these buckets online, but it’s not too late to join in the fun.

AMC Deadpool & Wolverine Popcorn Buckets

If you’ve been to a movie theater recently, you’ve probably already seen trailers for “Deadpool & Wolverine”, or the incredibly unfunny “Turn Off Your Phones” PSA featuring Hugh Jackman threatening to sodomize you with your own phone.

It’s a Marvel movie, so the marketing budget is past the $100 million mark. From TV spots to billboards to some actually clever stuff like custom claw machines installed in theaters, this is one blockbuster from which you can run, but certainly not hide.

There are tons of collectable “Deadpool & Wolverine” popcorn buckets. Most theater chains are spinning up their own variants, but we’re going to be focusing on the ones that are reselling.

Obviously, AMC is the current favorite. Almost all of the most popular popcorn buckets from previous movies have come from AMC, like Barbie’s Corvette bucket and the notorious “Duneussy“.

There are two AMC “Deadpool & Wolverine” popcorn buckets. One you’ve probably already seen; it’s the sexually suggestive Wolverine head with a big open mouth, clearing riffing on the viral popularity of the “Dune: Part II” buckets.

These were teased a few months ago on social media, and picked up some decent attention. AMC Wolverine popcorn buckets are $30, and include a fill-up of large popcorn.

You can also buy AMC “Headpool” popcorn buckets for $40. These are made to look like Deadpool’s skull draped in a ragged cowl, and also come with a propeller hat lid for snacking on the go.

It seems like most theaters are carrying both, but it’s worth calling ahead of time to confirm stock. We can’t say anything for sure, but it also looks like AMC has produced far more of these popcorn buckets compared to previous releases. That means they’ll be easier to buy, but harder to resell.

Cinemark Deadpool & Wolverine Popcorn Bucket

And if you want a less suggestive and more functional way to eat your popcorn, Cinemark has you covered. They are also selling two different popcorn buckets for “Deadpool & Wolverine”.

The first is a pretty straightforward replica of Wolverine’s head and cowl. Flip open the top of his cranium to load with popcorn, and feast right out his head like a zombie. You can also buy a popcorn carrier made to look like a taxi with Deadpool riding on top.

Both of these “Deadpool & Wolverine” popcorn buckets are available from Cinemark theaters for $25. As always, you do not need to buy a ticket to purchase one of these buckets, and most locations will allow you to buy more than one.

Do keep in mind there are no return policies; no one wants to eat popcorn from a used bucket!

Whether you prefer AMC’s buckets or Cinemarks, both brands are having a lot of success on eBay. These popcorn buckets first hit theaters on Thursday, well ahead of the movie’s release.

Resellers have been able to get in early and begin loading up. Over the weekend, we’ve recorded more than 150 sales for “Deadpool & Wolverine” popcorn buckets. Some of these are from other theaters, but most are from either AMC or Cinemark.

Right now, a “Deadpool & Wolverine” popcorn bucket is reselling for about $50 to $80. AMC “Deadpool & Wolverine” popcorn buckets have been far more popular and made up the majority of the sales, but we’re seeing a steady uptick in the Cinemark popcorn buckets.

This is a great start for any film. We expect to see this continue to resell for the next few weeks, but it’s not too late to buy. Check your local theaters or call around to see if they still have any in stock. Try to not make it obvious that you’re a reseller, and it might help to bring friends (or even buy a ticket).
