The distribution systems and the cinemas have adopted to the blockbusters, and they now get their main income from selling popcorn, and if you don't make a film that sells popcorn, it's very hard to get it out there.
I've tested every imaginable brand of popcorn and popcorn-popping product I could get my hands on.

I am a big popcorn fanatic. I love popcorn. In fact one year for my birthday, my husband bought me one of those big popcorn machines like they have in movie theaters.
I used to play ultimate Frisbee, and I just got a reputation for making popcorn at parties. I don't mean to brag on myself, but I make the popcorn in the pot, and it comes out fine every time.
My job scoring a horror movie is like being the barker at a carnival. A good barker can get anyone to walk into the roped-off tent. Especially with the main title, my job is to convince the audience to take the leap into the film even though their better sense is telling them, "I should put my popcorn down and get the hell outta here"!
Im a popcorn fanatic. No matter how full I am, I can eat popcorn.
I don't like popcorn, and I think it's so annoying when people have popcorn in the theaters. That is the loudest food.
I'm pretty great at eating. Mostly popcorn. I'm serious: I can finish a whole bag of popcorn in under 5 minutes, give or take.
I'm not a real film buff. Unfortunately, I don't have time. I just don't go. And I become very nervous when I go to a film because I worry so much about the director and it is hard for me to digest my popcorn.
Anyone who's been an usher knows it's a training in resilience. But you get such a film education. And the popcorn's free.
I love to go to a movie, get a Diet Coke and a barrel of popcorn, and sit there with my kids and watch a film.
I can't have cinema popcorn because it's all full of sugar, unfortunately. Well, I do have it and I don't have it. I love movie night and there's lots of healthy brands of popcorn nowadays, so it's good as a snack.
A really great popcorn movie is extremely hard to pull off. A really great popcorn book is equally hard to pull off, so I don't feel guilty devouring one.
That film 'Memento' creeped me out. I was looking over my back through the whole thing. I get more creeped out than scared and spill popcorn all over the place.

When I am down, there is nothing like a bowl of hot popcorn; popcorn means great movies and reading fantasy books wrapped up in a soft blanket to me.
