Dude. Again, you are making definitive statements based off of assumptions. Maybe he does have a plan, maybe he doesn't. Why tell somebody they can't do something before they even lay out a specific plan? I just don't get that kind of attitude. Not saying you can't be right, just saying you have no idea what he's going to do yet taking such a prematurely critical stance. Historically, he's had a good track record, he's been adamant about pointing out that every film he's made has turned a profit (except Jersey Girl maybe?), I personally don't believe he would impulsively put out a project and not do his homework and the math first. But, that's my opinion. Just be careful what you shoot down without hearing the case, that's all.
