The sequel to last year's Wickedis finally in theaters, and with it come follow-up promotional-popcorn buckets. In true Wicked megamerchandising fashion, multiple buckets have been released, but by far the most thrillifying is Regal's Wicked: For Good music box, which marks a milestone in popcorn-bucket technology: It plays music! Will this be a totally fine and unobtrusive part of the moviegoing experience or a What technological hell hath we wrought? crossing of the bucket rubicon?

The heat-ray bucket is a marvel despite being DC. It's a whimsical concept, a meta-commentary on the means of production of the very popcorn within it.
