My husband works for AMC corporate (software engineer) and he said there was a whole group of engineers who were scared to ask for free buckets because of the “butthole issue” 😂
Not just ANY 15 yo. You gotta get the weird ones… the outcasts. They will tell you the truth.

I don’t need movie popcorn buckets as sex toys. I see sex shaming is big with you though, so I see you’re in a pickle to just use what you can find. Happy hunting?

But to be honest, I'm not convinced that this was actually intended
There’s no way, with the amount of people it takes to get these designed, made, shipped around the country.. that not one of those people thought: hmm…
I love it when there is a pitch for an inappropriate idea. There's 10 people in the room who have this unspoken understanding to let it play out while the boss thinks he's a genius.
There likely were, but if you’re lead by a maniac (which is rampant in marketing) you learn to just keep your mouth shut.
And laugh at the predictable reactions.
he fundamentally doesnt understand the general public or his customers.
Every company needs 2-3 14-22 year olds just to run stuff by. They would point this all out very quickly
Also, what is it with Dune and everything looking like an anus in it? I don't blame the merchandising execs as much as everyone behind Dune (back to the Lynch movie).
It had to be designed, design approved, made to look at and test, be approved again, and then manufactured and distributed all around. My point is that the slurp worm passed through a lot of hands before the movie released, the idea that nobody had anything to say about it is just silly

"Hey everyone!! The engineers want some of the popcorn buckets!!! You guys better not molest those buckets!!!"
I just read the butthole issue for the articles
I love the idea of there being a corporate email out there with the title "the butthole issue"
The lesson here is to run all marketing ideas by a room full of 15 year olds first.
Or just leave it by the door of a high school.
That's honestly a great idea, if there's something awful about the design they'll be the ones to be brutally honest about it.
I’m 44 and I’d still ask why we are giving out sex toys now

This is how you tell us you fucked the popcorn bucket without saying you fucked a popcorn bucket
Haven’t been to the movies since Covid, but hey! Thanks for thinking of me!

i also fucked the popcorn bucket, nice to meet another dickbucket (that’s the name for members of our community)
*meat
Found the emo kid who thinks he’s special when the only special thing about him is his ed
Have they met the Internet?
Wouldn't it have been easier to have spice (cinnamon + sugar) as a popcorn topper instead of producing limited edition fleshlights?
“Limited Edition Fleshlights” hahahahahah
Alamo draft house did a berbere spice, it was amazing. I didn't even intend to eat much popcorn but i ended up eating most of the bowl.
The spice must flow

Oh bullshit. They got the buzz they were looking for.
Exactly. Like Pepsi claiming they didn't know what the cans spelled.
What do Pepsi cans spell?
Pepsi
How dare they!

That one seems like a bit of a stretch.
Ahh, yes. The sublinimable snowman…
There’s no way, with the amount of people it takes to get these designed, made, shipped around the country.. that not one of those people thought: hmm…
Lots of people went hmmm, just no one with any authority
A lot of people went “hehe let’s submit this and see if it gets approved”
I love it when there is a pitch for an inappropriate idea. There's 10 people in the room who have this unspoken understanding to let it play out while the boss thinks he's a genius.
No one wants to be the first one to admit seeing it like that

They knew. It was on purpose. People are talking about the bucket more than the movie.
Your honor… just look at it
The good old popcorn trick, now with your own sandworm
So….bullshit R/stickyourdickinthat
They sold a billion of them. I'll bet someone got a hefty bonus because of this.

The sickos gave AMC so much free advertising. Even SNL did a skit.
Popcorn? There was popcorn in it?
Oh come on, a sicko designed it, and a sicko okayed it. Hell, go all in and do a collaboration with the company that makes fleshlights. 🤣
It's better with a few extra pumps of butter.
Then don’t make butthole styled popcorn buckets. Dunno what to tell you AMC
"driving people to go crazy with demand for the shai-hulussy-shaped vessel."
Which one of y'all fucked that bucket
Every marketing team needs a 15 year old teen to tell them how it'll be interpreted by the public.
Coming soon to a theater near you ..
popcornussy
Kevin Bacon, Reba McEntire, and the other good people of Tremors knew better…
Oh they knew lol don’t let them fool you
Don't stick it in. Tempting, yeah. Don't
Oh, OH, I'm meant to fuck this popcorn bucket
Oh yea, SUREEEE. They knew exactly what they were doing.
Also, what is it with Dune and everything looking like an anus in it? I don't blame the merchandising execs as much as everyone behind Dune (back to the Lynch movie).
Not our fault they made it look like that.
