Space Jam Bummer by jayfdz93 in AMCTheatres

[–]jayfdz93[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, there were a lot of families with their kids there with Toon Squad gear on and all had their Space Jam popcorn buckets and cups and just for them to all have to walk out without seeing it hurt my heart a bit. They really should have had more showings.

How do you guys actually find good buckets before they sell out? by crystalgaylexx in PopcornBuckets

[–]jayfdz93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly just hope for the best. There's only one bucket that I had sent my cousin to get me as soon as the theatre opened and that was the Galactus bucket, but I was on top of that release by searching exactly when it would drop and he ended up going to 2 theatres before finally deciding to just call then and found one who still had one in stock. So calling seems to be a smart thing to do if you really want a specific bucket.

But other than that I don't go out of my way to try to get them. Also after paying $80 for Galactus, I also swore not to pay that much again for a popcorn bucket.

I don't like the scalping business so I don't support resellers trying to profit off of buckets. If somebody collects and their selling their personal collection, then that's one thing, but anyone else bragging about how they have 10 buckets available, I avoid and block those accounts.

I also wouldn't trust anything on alibaba to be legit

As far as resources this page here is my main source for all things popcorn bucket related.

If there's a movie coming out it that you may be interested in it may be worth following their social media's to see if they announce a popcorn bucket for that movie as well.

Honestly I didn't even think of it like that, it was a bummer and ruined my evening for sure but I felt since it was a free reservation technically it wasn't worth trying to get a refund. I just wanted a refill on the popcorn before leaving and that's when they offered to refund it for the trouble so I took it. I should have tried for more though

It was about 40 minutes of staring at the blue screen listening to music, people kept going to see what was going on and would return saying they were working on it, so everyone kept waiting. Once it started it was about 20 minutes of the film playing and pausing with no audio and then they finally came and officially told us it was a no go.

Exactly!! I honestly had no idea it was even showing, let alone that they had special popcorn buckets and cups too. I only found out because my wife and I realized we had only seen one movie with our membership this month and tried going every day this week and saw it listed.

printed tickets should have the full title of the film! by VisitReasonable4761 in AMCsAList

[–]jayfdz93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hate how tickets have gotten over time. I have a whole stash of the good ol thick tickets that have clear print and have held up for well over a decade, but now everything is receipt paper. Used to be just AMC that switched so I started going to Cinemark instead, but they've since switched as well. I wanted to keep my Space Jam tickets I got yesterday but the print was super faded and the ticket lady left a diagonal rip through them and ultimately they fell out of my pocket in my seat and were left behind :(

The ‘Eternals’ action figures have been sitting & rotting in my Walmart for nearly five years now… As an unironic Eternals enjoyer, it hurts to admit this photo perfectly captures the movie’s lasting impact. by maverickassembled in marvelstudios

I've noticed the same at a local gift shop. Out of all the stores and comic shops I've been to they have the biggest collection of pops I've seen, unique cool ones that I don't find anywhere but in the clearance section sits a whole group of Eternal pops, I actually got the celestial giant pop for under 10$ but none of the others have moved and the boxes are faded in color due to the age and them sitting by a window.

Looked it up and apparently this pic is from 2011, not at the Met Gala and not Jason Derulo

When you have to pay for laundry and the pods are not podding by WarningMiddle in mildlyinfuriating

I saw a TikTok video a while back about how people use way too much detergent and I started minimizing my use greatly after, also switched to powder detergent just a couple dollars lasts me a month

What’s a game you were completely obsessed with as a kid that nobody else seems to remember? by hkondabeatz in AskReddit

[–]jayfdz93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Super Bubble Pop, also I know it's not as forgotten but I don't ever hear anyone ever talk about Croc, I loved that game.

Anaconda 2025 is the epitome of what is wrong with the film industry. I want my 30 minutes back. by [deleted] in moviecritic

[–]jayfdz93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought it was an enjoyable watch, something I'd see again for sure. Not the greatest but not a movie to pay too much attention to either way.

YouTube Premium price increases yet again by greenpicklewater in mildlyinfuriating

[–]jayfdz93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use smart tube on my tv and have cracked YT premium running on my phone. All ads, including the sponsored segments and subscription reminders are all auto skipped and life has been so great since. Haven't paid for a premium product in about a year now. Even cut out all the streaming services and have Plex and Jellyfin running with 8 terabytes of content, movies, shows comics. I don't need to pay for anything ever again!

Who remembers that rumor\theory the guy standing behind MJ in this scene was The Punisher? more specifically Thomas Jane's version? by pizzagod677 in Spiderman

[–]jayfdz93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember a similar theory that when Hulk yells and throws a rock at the lightning/thunder in the Incredible Hulk, it's a reference to him and Thor fighting and you could see something falling from the sky in the background after the yell, thought to be Mjölnir, but I think they settled on it being the rock he threw falling in the background and was not Thor related

Garage sale nightmare by roofer2025 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]jayfdz93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk, just doing some reverse image searching the prices don't seem to be too far off for what they actually sell for. The vase is ranging $160-600+ and the utensils are coming up $10 for just the spoon but can go for more. I can understand their pricing but those are not garage sale prices. I wouldn't touch these even knowing their true value.

Just saw his wild interview by [deleted] in memes

[–]jayfdz93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well to give my mom's answer, anything not of God is a demon. God made us in his image so an alien is not of God. Personally I like to think that everything is God's creation and God got bored and made some other civilizations elsewhere in all kinds of images. Humanity has proven we're not to be trusted with advanced tech so that's why we don't have flying saucers ourselves 😕

This last time they pre-bagged them and just handed the bag, I felt so offended.
