The popcorn in question. This bag wasn't mixed very well so I get a VERY SWEET piece and then a VERY SALTY piece and it's rather jarring. Parents got it for me because I decided to be a contrarian when everyone else in the family was dunking on the idea of it.

Just going off the top of my head, I can recall more works having used wands since *before* those movies. Animated Disney and the like. As for after I can only vaguely recall one visual novel or something. Games tend to use staves more often or just bare hands.
