Hey so if a movie cost $200 million to produce and the box office total was $300 million and the theaters take 50% of the box office, how much money did the movie make?

Take your time, TomChan
WRONG! Movie theaters take only 40% off of ticket sales, not 50%. And none of that matters anyway.

Now like Jynks said, let's keep this thread back on topic.

Speak for yourself, pal. I always looking at the stars, I am on cloud nine.

Ooo y’all don’t get this thread nuked. We’re having good discussion here now.

If we’re allowed to chat about it though I would argue “woke” is not a definition but more a set of rules and if you watch a lot of media (more recent media) you can see a lot of it. People wouldn’t have started using “woke” in its current definition if there wasn’t something to it. These things don’t just come out of nowhere.

How about this though @Vulgar. Separate yourself from your stance and make yourself completely neutral here. What would your definition or “rules” be if you could define woke yourself? I’m curious as to your answer.
No, no, you weren't tagged in, yet. It's not your turn.

Finish your Appy sauce.

Then maybe I'll think about letting you sit at the big boy's table.

The 50% is a fucking average...and is rounded up. The general percentage is actually averaged out to 51%. If you say it's 40%, cite your source.

Also "none of that matters anyway". So a theater taking a percentage of movie box office sales doesn't matter when figuring out how successful a movie was?

Bro, you are not a real person.

Man you are EAGER to dodge this. It's fully on topic because we can't discuss MK1 sales numbers if you are proven to be unable to be honest about movie sales numbers.
 
Oh don't reply to me, I'll call you slurs and threaten you physically.
Just being honest.

If by "honest" you mean just agreeing with everything you say just to be the rebellious people's champion against anything that is made in the west, then you only proving my point even further. I was honest through and through. You want me to give you the source, let's move this MCU topic to a private discussion only and remove the whole thing from this thread, like I asked you already. Either that, you or just proving me right again.
 
Are Sektor and Cyrax gay in MK1?

I think Mileena and Tanya are the only gay characters in the game, and Mileena's been canonically bisexual since MKX.

Hasn't Cyrax been black since AT LEAST MK9?

And is inclusion and culture sensitivity a bad thing?

Again, don't dodge the questions. We're in it now.
I believe I explained myself well….
Wokeness= everything is racist, sexist or homophobic.

The problem with the term "woke" is that if something is being discussed, 5 different people have 5 different answers on what they think it is. If I say "how tall is that chair, you can measure it and say 3ft 2in". If I ask 5 people "what would you call woke?" all 5 have a diff answer but argue with each about it.

Actually no; at least it was never confirmed.

The concept first came about in her intro dialogue (non-canon) with Tanya in Mortal Kombat X, post launch. It was extremely well received, and for her non-canon representation in _Mortal Kombat 11: Ultimate, they made her proper in a same-sex relationship. While DLC characters themselves are not canon, it was expected that the next time Mileena was canonically represented she would indeed be bi or prefer same sex relations, which is what happened with the New Era.

your Roy Arkon account.
I forgot about him. This explains a lot.

Man wtf is even this thread
I don't even know anymore either.

Where in MK1 is anyone called racist, sexist, or homophobic?

Supplemental question: I believe you referred to gender swapped Sektor and Cyrax as woke. Did they call anyone racist, sexist, or homophobic?
And I think some hindsight should win here. Even if you were critical of the Cyborg/Sektor gender swap (I was because I'm an old keep-everything-same type) you have to admit that it actually ended up working out great. They both feel like they have more life than the previous versions, and are more uniquely different from each other than the past. It ended up working out better than what we had before even if it wasn't the expectation to do be better for some.

I prefer cyborgs than female iron man.

I prefer cyborgs than female iron man.
The last game they were playable they were literally "Triborg", with almost the same moves with different specials across 4 different robots. I'm tired of the "power armor" stuff games and shows/movies run too, but it doesn't get as generic as "cyborgs who change depending on the color you pick in the select screen with minimal difference".
