These Minecraft-themed novelties are the latest addition to a trend that has been captivating audiences since the 2019 release of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, which introduced the iconic R2-D2 popcorn bucket. The viral success of that bucket sparked a wave of excitement among theater executives, leading to a modern tradition that, while perhaps overdone and pricey, continues to draw moviegoers to the theatrical experience.
