BRAVE NEW WORLD’s amazing first popcorn bucket has been unveiled

At a time when theaters are still struggling post-pandemic, gimmicky popcorn buckets have become a big moneymaker. Some are better than others, but almost all of them become must-have collectibles that sell for much more on eBay.

Today we take a first look at one of the popcorn buckets that will be available Captain America: Brave New World early next year.

While a Red Hulk-themed version should be on the horizon somewhere – his fist perhaps? – this effort recreates Sam Wilson’s new flight helmet. That design has won the approval of fans and looks set to become a crucial part of the aerial battle for the remains of the Celestial Tiamut.

The Falcon and the Winter Soldier made a point of having Sam Wilson reject the idea of ​​taking the Super Soldier Serum if he were to wield the shield. With that in mind, how can the new, human Captain America ever go toe-to-toe with a Hulk?

“As soon as we decided that this was the story we were going to tell, we realized there was a big hurdle,” executive producer Nate Moore recently acknowledged this. VFX supervisor Dan Cox added, “If he gets hit, his head will fly around.”

However, Moore would go on to explain that Sam will be equipped with a Wakanda-made Vibranium suit “somewhat” levels the playing field.

“I say ‘somewhat’ because it’s a Red Hulk,” he admitted. “What are you going to do? We’re very aware that the movie doesn’t seem unfair. So giving Sam equipment to survive is different from giving Sam equipment to succeed.”

Cox added, “We had to choreograph the fight sequences so he could constantly use them as, essentially, two extra limbs, so he can take the Hulk punches from time to time, but he does everything he can to avoid them anyway. see it in the action scene; It’s not fun when he gets hit.”
