America has a deep love for popcorn. They’ve dedicated a day to its honour, made it the official snack of Illinois, and the whole country annually consumes enough of this cinema snack to fill the Empire State Building 18 times!

Popcorn also makes a great snack choice while playing online bingo, seeing as it requires only one hand and is not messy.

Just be careful when you jump for joy at your next bingo win not to spill it!

LEARN THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN ONLINE BINGO, SLOTS AND SLINGOS

Here at Sun Bingo, our players usually have a favourite bingo room that they like to play in.

That love doesn’t need to end when they stop playing.

They can pick a film to enjoy with the rest of their popcorn that’s in keeping with their bingo room of choice.

Check out our six film suggestions below.

HAVE YOU DISCOVERED PRIVATEER RICHES?

Age of the Gods Bingo – Troy

Fans of the ancient world might find themselves enjoying games in the Age of the Gods room.

Here you can enjoy 780 daily chances to win, with tickets priced between 5p and 30p.

The room is open 24/7 and has its own designated chat room. The Age of the Gods room even hosts games called Troy Story!

CHECK OUT OUR ANCIENT WORLD DATING SITE

That’s not all. Each game also features the Arena of the Gods. At the end of the game, a panel of nine coins is shown to the full house winner.

The player selects coins until three identical symbols appear. This determines the distribution of the full house prize.

It could be Zeus (100% to the community), Athena (75% to the community and 25% to the winner), Ares (25% to the community and 75% to the winner) or Hades (100% to the full house winner).

GET TO KNOW OUR 10/10 CHAT HOST SAVANNAH

Fans of this room should check out the 2004 film Troy, starring Brad Pitt, Orlando Bloom and Eric Bana.

The film focuses on the events of the Trojan War, with all of the fights, betrayals and romances.

Popcorn had already been eaten for thousands of years by the time the events of this film are said to have taken place (approximately 1184 BC).

There is evidence of popcorn being consumed nearly 7,000 years ago.

DO YOU KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN 75, 80 AND 90 BALL BINGO?

Cabaret Room – Chicago

An obvious answer would have been to suggest the film Cabaret but here at Sun Bingo, we like to do things a little differently.

The Cabaret Room offers 90-ball games until 11:30pm each day.

There are three prizes per game and the chance to trigger the room’s jackpot, which starts at £1000.

For a film that captures the glitz and glam of cabaret, why not try watching Chicago?

DO YOU LIKE THIS CLASSIC MUSICAL MOVIE?

This musical is set in 1924 and shows life inside a women’s prison, starring Catherine Zeta-Jones and Renée Zellweger. Can their lawyer (Richard Gere) to get them off Murderess’ Row?

At the time of the film’s events, popcorn vendors had already been selling their goods outside of cinemas for some time.

While initially not happy about this, even going so far as to ban the crunchy snack inside of screenings, cinemas eventually relented.

By 1912, they were a staple of the cinema experience.

WE HAVE SLOT RECOMMENDATIONS BASED ON YOUR STAR SIGN

Cash Cave – The Descent

Fans of Cash Cave will know that for just 1p (the starting price of tickets), they could win more than £5,000.

That’s in part thanks to this room’s jackpot, which is currently worth over £30,500.

Features to look out for here include Last Chance Saloon, where all eligible non-winners are given a free bonus scratchcard after the game.

This could award a cash win or bingo bonus.

DISCOVER THE HIDDEN TREASURES IN THESE FIVE FAMOUS CAVES

Fans of Cash Cave who never went to enter a deep cave again might like 2005 horror film The Descent.

Six women enter an uncharted cave system and are terrified to learn that they are not alone.

Will they survive? The pressure is on…

Speaking of pressure, ever wondered how popcorn comes about?

Each kernel contains a tiny amount of water because, unlike most corn, popcorn shells are not water repellent.

This means that when they are heated, the water turns to steam and pressure builds within the kernel.

Eventually, the pressure gets so high that the kernel bursts. When this happens, the kernel becomes known as a flake.

Heart Room – About Time

When it comes to our romantic players, Heart Room is the place to be between 9am and midnight.

This room hosts 80-ball games, with each game offering up to four prizes.

That’s not including the progressive jackpot prize that starts at £1000.

NEW PLAYERS CAN LEARN ALL THEY NEED TO IN OUR LEARNER ROOM – WITH FREE GAMES

Tickets cost between 10p and 25p, with players able to purchase 25, 30 or 40 tickets per game (depending on the game).

Our Heart Room fans should indulge in a viewing of the romantic time travel film About Time.

In 2013, Rachel McAdams and Domhnall Gleeson stole our hearts as a young couple whose entire love story, from meeting to marrying and the births of their children, are altered multiple times when Gleeson’s character makes use of his inherited ability to travel back to various points in his own timeline.

WIN OVER £2 MILLION IN THESE SLOT GAMES

Some changes are for the better and others prove that he did things right the first time around.

It’s a shame that Gleeson’s character isn’t old enough to use his gift to go back to the 1940s to experience the revelation of using microwaves to pop corn.

However, he might be old enough to return to 1981 and experience the first time that microwaveable popcorn was commercially sold.

Clover Rollover Bingo – Irish Wish

In the land of the Clover Rollover Bingo room, players have the chance to win a special prize, in addition to the games’ prizes, by accumulating 250 gold coins.

WE’VE GOT GREAT IRISH-THEMED GAMES LIKE CLOVER ROLLOVER

Coins are earned by marking off numbers on your bingo tickets.

Some games have the Clover Multiplier feature attached. If you win a house prize in one of those games, the multiplier will be applied to any coins earned during that game!

This room hosts multi-price bingo so the price you pay for your ticket will impact your potential winnings pot.

Fans of this room might want to stick in the Emerald Isle and check out the 2024 film Irish Wish with Lindsay Lohan.

Her character makes a wish that it was her getting married to her secret crush, and not her friend.

WE HAVE A BRITAIN’S GOT TALENT SLINGO GAME

As events unravel, we learn that sometimes the happy ending we imagine for ourselves isn’t all it cracked up to be.

It seems that Lohan’s character is worried about ending up an old maid or spinster, which coincidentally is the official name for corn kernels that have not popped after popcorn is made.

Rapid Room – The Fast and the Furious

This 90-ball room puts the “go” in bingo! With the balls coming thick and fast in this speedy bingo room.

HERE’S WHAT HAPPENED WHEN I PLAYED IN THE SPEEDY BINGO ROOMS

Despite running fast, the Rapid Room never runs out of steam, and is opening 24/7.

Check out sessions such as “Rush Hour 1”, “Over Taker” and “Half Way Point”, which have the Free Tickets feature enabled.

This means that any bonuses that have granted free bingo tickets can be used in these games.

This room’s exclusive progressive jackpot is called at a speedy 35 balls. It starts at £2,500 but is currently worth over £13,000.

With tickets starting at just 1p, an average of 1700 chances to win daily, and full house prizes of up to £120, you might want to act fast if you want to take part.  

LEARN 10 THINGS ABOUT OUR CHAT HOST LEXI

You know who can handle the need for speed? Not only our Sun Bingo players, but also the characters in the Fast & Furious franchise.

Check out where it all began in 2001 when Vin Diesel, Paul Walker and Michelle Rodriguez first put pedals to the metal.

Although we don’t know how fast popcorn can go, we do know that they can jump an impressive 3ft.
