“Bringing an urn is crazy”: People react with memes and jokes to creative containers bought for Bring Your Own Popcorn Bucket deal

Cinemark elevated snacking to a new level on National Popcorn Day (January 19). This year, instead of paying for expensive theater tubs, spectators were encouraged to bring their buckets and fill them with popcorn at just $5, which is a golden, buttery treat. Clean containers with a maximum capacity of 400 ounces are what you should bring.

For popcorn lovers everywhere, National Popcorn Day is one of the celebrations of the year at Cinemark. They seem to have figured out the secret to happiness: just roll in with a bathtub-sized container of popcorn instead of the small, medium, and big. The moment is arrived if you've ever wanted to recreate a popcorn pool party at the movies!

However, some people brought everything but the kitchen sink, suggesting that moviegoers took the "bring your own popcorn bucket" guideline a bit too seriously! From big bags that could be used as baggage to real urns - yes, urns! - people were willing to stuff popcorn into anything they could find. Even the person who brought the urns surprised everyone. Someone (@harv) on the X (formerly Twitter) platform said:

"bringing an urn is crazy"

Some person, obviously ready to swim in buttery bliss, had brought a bathtub-sized bottle. Was it even your intention to bring a container the size of a small vehicle at this point? The creativity? The popcorn game was serious. Unmatched.

As soon as the video became viral, the netizens flooded the social media platforms with funny reactions, comments, and memes. Let me walk you through how netizens reacted regarding this.

So this is how fans have reacted. This time, popcorn lovers truly went above and beyond, transforming a common snack into a remarkable show. Cinemark was transformed into a surreal container circus by popcorn lovers, who brought the mayhem. Like they were preparing for a year-long popcorn apocalypse, someone wheeled in a 30-gallon garbage container. One drawer for popcorn was insufficient, so another person dared to bring a whole desk with drawers.

Not to mention the one who arrived with a bucket so large that they could have sat with the popcorn inside. To be honest, we wouldn't be shocked if someone pulled a wheelbarrow or a kiddie pool in at this pace. Showing off who could envision the biggest - or deliver the biggest - was more important than snacking.
