He cares too much about the fans, after all. So just you wait, there will be epic Ninja Action and tons of it, and the movie will definitely NOT be the corniest goddamn thing you ever saw. Honest."
I believe you were also called a "whiny know-it-all" and stuff like that quite repeatedly for daring to doubt them. I may be paraphrasing. And when they found out they'd been 100% in the wrong, all they had was, "Whatever, it was still good!" People sure don't like having to stand by their rhetoric.
I'll cop to being wrong, it made more than I expected. That's about it.

Oh yeah. I was hoping upon hope it would tank and probably even said that it would.
Didn't make as much as GotG or most of the other GOOD summer blockbusters this year, but it made money.
And now we get to do this all over again!
But yeah. I won't NAME NAMES or anything but...I, we, was so, so utterly right about...pretty much everything!
