Mean Girls' return to theaters with a 2024 musical movie has fans eager to snag a specially made popcorn tin from AMC. But how can they get their hands on it?
The Plastics are making a comeback for newer generations while also giving original millennial fans a nostalgic trip down memory lane. Staying true to the iconic moments and storyline of the original, the new Mean Girls movie follows Cady as she navigates American high school life for the first time. Is it a dramatization of the American experience, or is it based on a real-life book?
Mean Girls is making a big comeback on the big screen, and with it, The Burn Book is also making its grand return. The iconic bright pink album filled with cruel and outrageous remarks about students and even faculty members is back in the spotlight. In keeping with the Mean Girls theme, AMC has launched a special-edition popcorn tin designed to look like the infamous Burn Book. If you want to get your hands on one, here's how.
Is the Burn Book popcorn tin for sale?
Yes and no. Fans might try their luck at securing the Mean Girls popcorn tin by going to their local AMC theater and snagging one before they’re sold out.
The popcorn tin is exactly what fans were hoping for - a metallic replica of the Burn Book, complete with stamped cherry red lipstick kisses on the back. If you can't find it at your local AMC, you can also purchase it on the website. Currently, it's listed as Sold Out with the note "This item cannot be purchased. Coming Soon." However, you can always check back to see if it comes back in stock.
The official website advertises the Mean Girls 'Burn Book' popcorn tin as a way to unleash your inner Plastics. This 54-ounce tin is perfect for fans and those who enjoy a touch of drama with their snacks. The price of $19.99 is reasonable, although it does not include the popcorn. Fans on X/Twitter are raving about the item and its reusability.
Lol, it’s them knowing their ACTUAL Target Audience for me.

Another fan quickly noticed that those who are able to get one may sell them for a higher price. "These are going to be resold online for about $500, I can already tell," said a fan. Others mentioned that the Mean Girls popcorn tin has other uses besides holding popcorn.
Editor's P/S
As a hard fan of the movie Mean Girls, I am thrilled about the release of the Mean Girls 2024 musical movie and the accompanying Burn Book popcorn tin. The popcorn tin is a creative and nostalgic way to celebrate the return of the iconic Plastics. I appreciate AMC's understanding of their target audience and their efforts to create a unique and memorable experience for fans. The popcorn tin is a must-have collectible for any Mean Girls enthusiast, and I can't wait to get my hands on one.
However, I am concerned about the limited availability of the popcorn tin and the potential for it to be resold at inflated prices. I hope AMC will find a way to ensure that all fans have a fair chance to purchase the tin at its original price. Additionally, I would love to see AMC offer other Mean Girls-themed merchandise to further enhance the fan experience. Overall, I am excited about the Mean Girls comeback and the Burn Book popcorn tin, and I look forward to seeing what else AMC has in store for fans.
