The U of T community is anxiously awaiting the upcoming release of the film based on Robarts Library’s most notorious feces flinger. To commemorate the grand premier, Scotiabank Theatre is selling a commemorative souvenir popcorn bucket that appears to double as a portable lavatory. The Boundary spoke with Scotiabank Theatre representative Tarin Quentintino regarding the controversial kernel receptacle.
“We saw the absurd profitability of the fuckable Dune: Part Two popcorn bucket, the so-called “wormussy,” and wanted to recreate that success with something even more twisted,” he said of the Pee Pee Poo Poo Man premiere product. “Plus, it’s super practical when you think about it. Everyone hates having to use the bathroom halfway through a movie and missing important plot points. This is our solution. It doesn’t matter if you ordered a large drink or if your body rejects the hydrogenated vegetable oil topping on your $38 dollar popcorn, you won’t have to leave your seat. Of course, I would strongly recommend waiting until you’ve finished all your popcorn before you use the bucket for that purpose, but hopeful moviegoers figure that out on their own.”
The bucket is currently being sold for $11.22, in honor of the date of the original attack. “Since most of my money goes to my Criterion Collection subscription, I couldn’t afford to get one for myself,” Leeta Box, a first-year at Woodsworth, told one of our correspondents. “Fortunately, my roommate offered to pitch in, so now we’re sharing it. Two girls-One bucket, we call it. It’s super popular with the guys in our residence.” When asked to elaborate, Box declined.
Ultimately, we here at The Boundary just hope the movie doesn’t stink.
