Popcorn Buckets Are Making Theaters Rich | Dayton News

AMC expects $100 million from bucket sales alone this year, while Cinemark’s merchandise revenue jumped 40% thanks to these items. A $10 popcorn costs theaters less than $2 to make, but the collectible buckets push the markup to a jaw-dropping 3,400%. Giant designs like the 22-inch Trojan horse for “The Odyssey” are turning into collector’s items, fetching even more on eBay. While not the main draw, these buckets are proving vital for theaters fighting to stay afloat in the streaming era.
