How to get the Darth Vader popcorn bucket for the Revenge of the Sith re-release

by

This coming weekend, Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith returns to movie theaters, and a perfect way to celebrate its re-release is by purchasing the Darth Vader-themed popcorn container.

Approximately two decades back, the final chapter of George Lucas’ prequel trilogy, titled “Revenge of the Sith,” was released. In this movie, the character Anakin Skywalker (played by Hayden Christensen) succumbed to the dark side and metamorphosed into Darth Vader.

Unlike previous episodes, Episode III received widespread acclaim. Yet, the excitement for its cinema return highlights the nostalgic feelings that have developed towards the prequels. Remarkably, these films are now considered the least controversial Star Wars installments, particularly following the reception of the sequel trilogy.

To honor its 20-year milestone, Disney and Lucasfilm are going all out with festivities, and a specific movie theater chain offers an ideal popcorn container for this special event.

Where to buy the breathing Darth Vader popcorn bucket

If you want the Darth Vader bucket, you need to visit your local AMC Theatre.

As a gamer, I’ve been eyeing this exclusive item, but here’s the catch – it’s only available at physical AMC locations, not on their online store… yet. So, if you want to get your hands on it, you’ll need to make a trip to your nearest AMC in person.

THE SOUND OF VADER BREATHING!!!!!!!

As a dedicated Star Wars fan, I can’t wait to get my hands on the exclusive Darth Vader popcorn bucket, complete with his signature breathing sounds and a special 20th anniversary cup! It comes filled with a generous portion of popcorn and a drink, too. You’ll find this limited edition item only in theaters starting April 24, so grab it before it’s gone – supplies are limited!

The significance of those final words cannot be overlooked: “as long as supplies remain.” The craze for unique popcorn containers has surged dramatically in the past year, largely due to Dune’s “worm-inspired” design sparking the trend. People are eager to purchase one, regardless if they don’t have tickets for Revenge of the Sith.

heads up: Multiple Vader buckets are currently being auctioned on eBay over $90. Given they might have been bought already, if you’re interested in owning one, act swiftly.

How much does the Darth Vader bucket cost?

Based on reports from individuals who’ve bought it on social media, the Darth Vader popcorn bucket combo is priced at around $55.

Grab the Darth Vader popcorn bucket adorned with his distinctive breathing noises and a souvenir 20th anniversary beverage. Purchase includes a large popcorn and/or drink! Find it exclusively at #AMCTheatres on 4/24, while stocks last.

Based on unconfirmed reports, purchasing the bucket separately, without any popcorn or beverages, is thought to set you back around $44.99 (including taxes).

No sweat if you miss out on one, there’s plenty more where that came from! For instance, I just found out Cinemark is selling a sweet Darth Vader cup for twenty bucks, and guess what? You can grab it at Regal Cinemas as well!
