Love popcorn, especially at the theaters that still use real butter - I know of 3 here in LA that still do it right.

Couldn't help you with the microwave thing - don't own one. But I love my air popper. We do itevery Friday Night with the kids. Butter, salt & sugar, like simple kettle corn. Yummy!

Hey wow...it's an actor with a digitally-animated Orville Redenbacher head! That's really nice. Another groundbreaking effect from Digital Domain.

Beans.

No, really.

It is a composit of digital animation, old orville footage, and a live actor with prosthetics... the net result is just WEIRD.

I guess it does the job though, it certainly sticks with you...

makes me afraid of popcorn though.

Yes, yes...kettle corn. I don't know who invented that but it's great. There is a street fair held intermittently here, and there's usually a booth with a kettle corn maker, they use giant-size popping kernels. You can smell the stuff all the way down the street...uhhh...I want...

Get yourself a pack of this...

Look, I don't know or care what those little round things are. All I know is, bag. Microwave. Put bag in, close door, press buttons. Put bag in, close door, press buttons. Put bag in, close door, press buttons. All that other stuff just confuses me.

I added diagrams for simplicity, even a kak handed fool could follow them. :D

i agree for watching a theater movie, but if you're at home its not bad, but i usually just settle for chips instead at the outdoor, cause they're cheaper so i sneak them in along with my own pop and maybe some candy, steven sometimes gets taco bell or donuts you ever try chips during a movie

That may be part of your problem. if you are skipping the "open door, remove bag" steps, you are going to run out of room, and yes, the old ones are going to burn. Quite a bit, I would think :D
