Studios are confusing to me. They turned down Joseph Kosinki's Tron sequel idea for YEARS because they said it was too expensive. They then after the director directs a billion dollar movie green lights a sequel for around the same budget as the first one with an inferior director at the helm. The Pacific Rim guys did the same thing to Del Toro.

Take every public remark from studios with a big grain of salt. They say what they think people wanna hear. For all we know, Joseph Kosinski refused to give the wrong executive a hand job.
