This is a big part of why everyone was so happy to see Black Panther do as well as it did.

But it really shouldn’t be like this.

Some movies bomb. Some movies do well. It’s the nature of the business.

But it never means “Yeah, well, one movie starring mostly Asian actors flopped, so let’s not do another movie starring mostly Asian actors.”

Never saw anyone refusing to do movies with white people after John Carter epically bombed.

I’m confused

It used to be that paper currency was backed by gold and silver for its value. A 10$ paper note would be redeemable for 10$ worth of gold or silver following the gold or silver standard. Currently our bills are fiat money which means they are not backed by any tangible item. They’re just based on the strength of the economy. The economy can fluctuate so it makes the actual value of a bill unstable. These Mcdonalds coins, however, would be a currency that are redeemable for a Big Mac. This would make them a technically more stable currency as they are always have the value of a Big Mac they can be redeemed for.
