No you’re illiterate
My initial comment made no mention of DC. It was about initial tooling cost recovery
You made this some DC va Demon Hunter pissing contest
Wow. That's some incredibly dishonest bullshit. Also, it's "no, you're illiterate.' Or 'No. You're illiterate.' If you're going to question my literacy, maybe use proper grammar, you fucking doorknob.
Let's go by the sequence of what was actually said, because you're too braindead to remember, apparently:
Back on Page 67, you responded to RexMason. He said the KPDH figures are loaded with accessories and he hopes they manage something similar with DC collector figures. Your response was, as you said, it's not a risk to go over budget with them because they're 'guaranteed' to make it back 10 fold. Which is simply... not true. It's not a guarantee. You're dumb if you think it is. Or it was hyperbole. I'll wait while you look that up.
Moving along....
I responded that I don't think anyone at Mattel expects KPDH to outsell Batman and Superman; the implication being that if they don't have to worry about KPDH, they'd also not have to worry about Batman and Superman. At no point in my response did I say they expected poor sales or saying that YOU said KPDH would sell better than Batman. I also wasn't making a new comparison - but referencing back to Rex's comparison that you responded to. Dipshit.
Then YOU responded with this dumb fucking gem:
Is this a joke? Before the movie yeah.
But now.
That’s like wondering if Zootopia 2 will make more than Batman and Superman after the success of the first one. The possibility is very high.
You decided to make the direct challenge (which you are now claiming you did not posit at all) about whether or not KPDH -could- and -would- outsell Batman and Superman. The implication of your above stupid-ass post is VERY clear to anyone... you know... literate.
You asked me if I were joking when I said Mattel did not expect KPDH to outsell Batman and Superman. You said that. I didn't force you to say it. I didn't say anything except that any inferences we can make about Mattel's ability to 'go overbudget in anticipation of sales' for KPDH would also apply, even moreso, to DC. YOU made it a challenge to argue that KPDH would, in fact, outsell DC. Your dishonesty about it now is mind-boggling.
You also doubled down in another post by pointing out that having the license first means they'll sell better than a license that's been passed around and had many opportunities for figures. YOU made the assertion you are saying you did not make.
Then I asked you to provide DATA to support what you were claiming as a fact; that KPDH, being a new property and first time toyline, would/could outsell DC. Since you were claiming strong sales as the REASON Mattel would budget a certain way, there would have to be data to support your assertion because it's the data Mattel would be using to make the decision you are claiming they would make.
You responded to this request for data by saying.... Mattel is the first license-holder for this property and that is 'proved.' Because you're a fucking idiot that can't read or understand logic.
Now's a good point to also bring up that at no point here did you say you're not saying KPDH could outsell DC. You'd spent a couple of posts saying exactly the opposite, actually ("they are the first license holder and this is proof of what I'm saying" is tacit confirmation you are continuing with the same argument you'd previously made).
NOW that I've pointed out how fucking stupid your argument is to the point where there is literally nothing you can say to dig out of your hole, you're just (badly) backpeddling and saying 'well, I never said that.'
Except, you did. You transparently lying dipshit.
Christ. Wouldn't it have been way easier to say "yeah, that's fair" - save some face, and move the fuck on with your life? Now everyone knows you read at a third grade level and don't understand what 'data' is. That's embarrassing for all of us.
