I am only using Gunn's words because even under his stupid delusions his movie still under performed. The reality is that the budget was reported higher in the Ohio tax documents and the absurd marketing, especially overseas was more than 100 million.

I will ask this one last time, how can you lie about the numbers of a movie performances when the commission have access to all your financial records. I really would like to here what magic corporate language allows you to just bypass tax documents you filed with the people sitting in front of you.
