Novelty popcorn buckets have become an almost essential piece of movie marketing in the last year. We can probably thank the Dune: Part Two bucket for this, made to look like one of its grody sandworms but, well, becoming famous for other reasons, as its virality is what got every movie exec looking for the next big hit. I’ve got two of them sitting on my shelf from the multiple times I went to see Sonic the Hedgehog 3, so I’ve fed into the machine a few times and can’t judge. The practice of making absurd, sometimes impractical popcorn buckets has become so common that fans are now creating early mock-ups so good that the official ones may pale in comparison. That’s what one fan did for Fantastic Four: First Steps. Marvel hasn’t announced what the official buckets will look like when the movie launches on July 25, but it will probably not compare to these imagined versions by artist BossLogic
