Moviegoers have seen their fair share of collectible popcorn buckets over the years—but none quite like this. A new dino-sized drop is turning heads, sparking social media buzz, and sending fans racing to theaters, all for a bucket that’s giving serious prehistoric flair.
Cinemark just dropped a ‘Jurassic Park’–themed popcorn bucket that looks like it stomped straight out of Isla Nublar, and it’s already being hailed as one of the coolest releases yet. . As shown by @jurassicpedia, the collectible bucket is shaped like a terrifying T-rex head that’s surprisingly realistic.

The $30 (including an XL popcorn on the side) bucket commemorates the 1993 classic’s newest sequel. What better way to celebrate a movie about giant carnivorous lizards than with a snack holder that’s part art piece, part dinosaur shrine?
Cinemark also rolled out other collectibles to celebrate the new movie, including dino plushies, fun popcorn tins, on-theme souvenir cups and more.

On Instagram, fans are losing their minds. “I need this bucket IMMEDIATELY,” one user wrote, while another declared it a “must-have for any dino-loving adult.” The post’s comments section is full of people tagging friends and plotting trips to the theater to see the movie that’s out July 2, 2025 and to grab the collectible bucket.
Cinemark has leaned hard into the collectible craze in recent years, with popcorn buckets that double as statement pieces. But this one might be the apex predator of them all. It’s dramatic. It’s nostalgic. It’s popcorn with a roar.
And while yes, it’s technically made to hold snacks, don’t be surprised if this one ends up on display shelves. Many collectors are buying it just to keep as memorabilia. After all, ‘Jurassic Park’ fans are a passionate bunch—and this is exactly the kind of merch that hits the sweet spot between movie magic and fan-service gold.
The limited-edition bucket is only available at participating Cinemark theaters while supplies last, and considering the online buzz, supplies might not last long. So if you want to relive your childhood with a side of buttery popcorn—and a very dramatic snack vessel—you’ll want to move faster than a raptor.
Because when it comes to collectible popcorn buckets, this one definitely deserves a place at the top of the food chain.
