While the Borderlands movie is finally on the big screen, it seems to have landed with a whimper, not a thud, but at least moviegoers will have some exciting popcorn buckets to collect from their local AMC, Regal, and Cinemark theaters.
The Rotten Tomatoes score, at the time of writing on opening day, sits at a measly 3% from critics. And box office projections do not appear much brighter, forecasting a $10-15 million opening on a $120 million budget (via World of Reel).
Borderlands: Where To Buy AMC's Popcorn Bucket
The Borderlands popcorn bucket available from AMC is arguably the centerpiece of the line-up, being shaped and designed like the iconic Claptrap.
Claptrap is often considered the comic relief mascot of the Borderlands franchise and is fittingly voiced in the live-action adaptation by comedy legend Jack Black.
The bucket boasts the familiar Claptrap design with its white and yellow coating, glowing blue eye, mechanical arms, and wheelbase. Although Claptrap can be found perched on a chunk of rock, aiding in standing up this popcorn bucket.
This Borderlands bucket is available in AMC theaters now for $39.99 plus tax, with a large popcorn included with the purchase. A press release shared with The Direct notes how "a very similar version of this collectible concession vessel concession vessel was a crowd favorite at this year’s Comic-Con."
