Watching movies at home requires popcorn for the full theatrical effect. I have always had a hard time getting microwave popcorn either all popped or not scorched. For something that is supposed to be so effortless, it is expensive and you do have to pay attention. So if you are going to watch and listen to the popping anyway, you can have the fun of turning the crank on the Whirly-Pop popcorn popper on the stove. Bulk popcorn is dirt cheap and one of these on the stove on medium heat is a lot of fun to play with, especially for children (supervised, of course) and it makes what seems like a ton of perfect popcorn. A few pounds of your favorite popcorn will last nearly forever. One less reason to go out to the movies.

Want more luxury? A hot air popper is about the same price. Not sure whether to consider more or less luxurious, just a different vibe. Maybe a little easier to use, uses practically no oil, but also maybe a little less fun.
