This new Cinemark popcorn bucket has been created by the movie theater brand in celebration of the release of Now You See Me: Now You Don't. The popcorn bucket boasts an unexpected design that will allow moviegoers to make their snack disappear by enabling them to perform a magic trick. The magical bucket works by allowing fans to perform an illusion that sees their snack disappear with a bit of sleight of hand that plays with perspectives.
The new Cinemark popcorn bucket is being offered at Cinemark locations for $27.95 as the perfect piece of memorabilia for fans to pick up this fall. The bucket builds on the continued popularity of themed popcorn buckets that have gained quite a bit of traction over the past several years.
