Doctor Doom’s New ‘Avengers: Doomsday’ Popcorn Bucket Has Glowing Eyes, Because Of Course It Does

Doctor Doom is coming for the multiverse. Apparently, he’s coming for your popcorn, too.

With Avengers: Doomsday hitting theaters on December 18, Marvel has unveiled what appears to be the first collectible popcorn bucket for the highly anticipated film. And if you’re going to build a popcorn bucket around one of Marvel’s most iconic villains, subtlety probably isn’t the move.

The bucket features a bust of Doctor Doom, complete with his signature armor, metal mask, and hood, standing with his arms crossed like he’s personally offended by the price of movie theater concessions. The popcorn itself goes in the back, because apparently even a supervillain has to make room for snacks.

But the real selling point? Doom’s eyes glow green.

It’s a pretty cool detail, especially for collectors who have turned limited edition popcorn buckets into something of a competitive sport. There’s just one small problem: Those glowing eyes are probably going to be a lot less cool when someone decides to light them up halfway through the movie. Seriously, don’t be that person.

That said, as far as collectible popcorn buckets go, this one is a pretty solid addition to the increasingly ridiculous world of movie theater merchandise. And with Marvel’s marketing machine just getting started, we wouldn’t be surprised if Doom has a few more tricks up his armored sleeves.

Avengers: Doomsday arrives in theaters December 18. Marvel has yet to announce pricing and availability details for the Doctor Doom popcorn bucket.
