00:00All right everybody, welcome back to the Snack Boys. I'm Eddie, on the other end is Clem.
00:04Today we're joined by Rico Bosco in the middle, where we will be reviewing AMC Theaters Perfectly Movie Theater Buttered, Extra Buttered I should say, Popcorn.
00:15This was your second pick right now.
00:17Yeah, I do not think I love Popcorn as much as Dave, because he polished all four large Popcorns.
00:26And I said I would want that challenge, I don't think I could do four, he's the king of that.
00:31But I love Popcorn, I've also used one of the apps to just deliver Movie Theater Popcorn to me for a sporting event.
00:39That is a move, and I respect the shit out.
00:41It's a fucking veteran move, like if you know it's on there.
00:44Even my dad was like, how the fuck did you get Movie Theater Popcorn like that?
00:47They throw butter on you for you?
00:48Yeah.
00:49I have to listen.
00:50I'm pretty sure with the same container.
00:53Same container.
00:54Same container.
00:55Same container in everything.
00:55Like, I'm pretty sure, yeah.
00:56It was like a TV show finale or something, and I ordered the box.
01:00Did you?
01:00That's a move, that's what you do.
01:02Now, would you say, maybe you can have a Popcorn off with Che, because Che's another
01:05guy.
01:06Yeah.
01:06Well, that was, that Yak episode, when it was Popcorn Day, they shut it down midway through,
01:14because Dan was like, you know, we can't have a whole show where you just eat.
01:17Like, ultimately everyone was eating.
01:19Like, it's not a show.
01:20At that point, you're just eating.
01:22It's ASMR.
01:22I did think I, in an hour, I could have polished off the large.
01:26The large.
01:26Yeah.
01:27Like, I was, I fucking love Popcorn.
01:30So, an AMC Popcorn is great Popcorn.
01:31No, and Movie Theater Popcorn is, like, in its own, you know what I mean?
01:35Like, even when you get a bad batch, which isn't rare, let's be honest, it's still good
01:40enough.
01:40You throw enough butter on there, it gets you through.
01:42Yeah.
01:43So, AMC, Ed, you're a big AMC guy.
01:47By, by default.
01:48Yes.
01:49It's the local one.
01:50Yeah.
01:50But it's also a big chain and known for their corn.
01:53How does it measure up?
01:55Ask them over here.
01:55I almost don't want to give you that.
01:56Are you?
01:57He's going to take some promotion.
01:59Listen, there is a movie theater I had a dude to do with.
02:03They didn't have Popcorn one day.
02:06And then I went to a supermarket across the street, bought it, and the guy goes, you can't
02:10bring that in.
02:10I said, stop.
02:11Like, if you run a fucking movie theater, you need to have a fucking Popcorn.
02:18Yeah, for sure.
02:19Popcorn machine was down that.
02:21So, I know AMC Popcorn very well.
02:24I mean, this is AMC Popcorn.
02:25Is it?
02:25This is it?
02:26Yeah.
02:26And I'm not big like Popcorn in a bag that's not either out of a microwave freshly popped
02:33or, you know, a movie theater freshly popped.
02:35This is good.
02:36And it says on the bag here on the top, it says heat and heat and heat.
02:42And it tells you to take it out of the bag, throw it in a bowl.
02:45I think this might cook you before when it's nice and warm.
02:47What's it saying?
02:48Heat?
02:48It's saying the heater for the end of seconds in a bowl in the microwave.
03:10I don't know why I'm so amazed that they hit this.
03:13Because it should, every time you get something in the store off the shelves and it never translates, this is what it should be.
03:19This is the gold standard for, like, that kind of stuff.
03:21So he said it doesn't like popcorn out of a bag.
03:23Me and you are from the same regional area.
03:25If you were just buying popcorn out of a bag, I do think there's one brand that stands above the rest.
03:30Do you know what it is up the top of your head or do you agree?
03:32I'm...
03:32It's the Wise Yellow Bag.
03:34Like, yes, the butter popcorn, but the butter popcorn.
03:37Yeah, but that is not nearly what this is.
03:41I mean, Smart Pop is coming to the game.
03:42Skinny Pop is coming to the game.
03:43Anyway, I honestly think that they, like, how they make the popcorn, they just figured out a way to bring that machine to a place and just bag it.
03:52I really do.
03:52That's really what it tastes like.
03:53I even, like, you even got the residue.
03:55Yeah, you got the residue.
03:56It's a little wet.
03:56It's not, like, just a dust.
03:57It's a wetness dust.
03:59I think AMC could have a problem here, guys.
04:02Potentially.
04:03Why?
04:05What does that go for a bag?
04:07We don't know.
04:08Okay.
04:08Because if it's less than a medium popcorn at the movies, I would see people smuggling it in.
04:16Yeah.
04:16Because you ain't missing it.
04:17It's a big bag to smuggle it on.
04:20And you do get it warm.
04:21And this one, and the one in the theater has the butter.
04:24You'd have to then...
04:24Yeah, okay.
04:25If you smuggle the butter, you're a sick.
04:28Oh, you're a lunatic.
04:29How about large, Rick?
04:30The guy, Mr. Fucking Moneybags over here, yeah, he keeps the cups and keep...
04:33He reuses his soda cups for his whole family.
04:36That's insane.
04:37He brings them home and watches them.
04:38At the movies?
04:39At the theater.
04:39Yes.
04:40That's nuts.
04:40The paper cups.
04:41Rico, I'm not talking about he has some, like, theater with a, oh, like, a reusable cup.
04:45Yeah, the paper.
04:45He uses...
04:46But how does the movie theater let him refill it?
04:49Because there's a machine there.
04:50So he just goes to the machine.
04:52Oh, well, that's on the theater.
04:53That's on the theater.
04:53Either that or he says it's free refills for large and he just gets his largest refilled.
04:58That's on the theater.
04:59You can't have a...
05:00You need...
05:00The crazy one.
05:01Yeah, movie theater needs that.
05:02Yeah, I'm going 7-9.
05:04I think that's really good.
05:06And I don't like bad popcorn to the theater.
05:08All right, so, like, a perfect score means that it's like you're eating it at the movie theater.
05:13So, like, I don't know how the highest score ever given, but we'll go 9-6.
05:19Wow.
05:19It's that fucking close to what we're eating.
05:21It is.
05:22It's just not a one.
05:23It's like somebody said, like, if you were saying, again, like, you know, the crossovers on snacks.
05:29I guess it's not really a crossover because it's popcorn being popcorn.
05:33But it's popcorn being movie theater popcorn.
05:35It's damn close.
05:36Do you think they just took the giant clear badge of the corn and then they'll just put it in a different bag?
05:40That's what I'm thinking, too.
05:41Yeah.
05:42I'm going player comparisons.
05:45This is going to seem crazy.
05:47It's pitcher show hail time.
05:50Oh.
05:50It's not the hitter, but the pitcher's pretty fucking good in his own, right?
05:54And a rare breed.
05:56Yeah.
05:56You know it's a rare breed.
05:57You can have it in a better form.
05:59I get it.
05:59Yeah.
05:59All right.
06:00That's sort of your thank you.
06:01You know who I would say?
06:02Who?
06:02Tim Lentz.
06:04Ooh.
06:04When he came on the scene, it was like somebody...
06:06It was like something we'd never seen before.
06:08The crazy wind-up.
06:09The long hair.
06:10Tim Lentz.
06:11We're just going to be throwing on the baseball players all over them.
