    Once their share of the popcorn market caps out they’ll lose the rights to all the good flavors and then raise the price.

      Or develop their own flavors in house like Cool Thousand Island and Wavy original flavor.

        Knowing Netflix and how their content quality has generally fallen in recent years, any new flavors will probably be like “Voluptuous Vomit” and “Dynamite Dog Shit”.

    They’ll bring out a cheaper version after a while where you need to open a load of advertising packets around the popcorn before you can get to it

    Jellyfin popcorn is much cheaper. I just grab it from the farmer’s field while he’s not looking.

        No, you take from the bucket of seeds the farmer keeps stocked, and spend a bit of time getting it growing - the farmer occasionally pops by to correct your setup, but for the most part it dries and pops itself for you.

        If you want good flavors you have to season it yourself though.

      They’re the kind of brand that come out with a netflix and chill flavor that’s just mint flavored popcorn and it’ll be the only thing they dont cancel after the first couple batches.
