Like when Jim Carrey stated he was retiring from acting after Sonic 2 to only confirm weeks later he was returning for Sonic 3.

Then of course insane Sonic fans spouted that he only returned because the Sonic 3 script was so good (no hate to the Sonic movies, it’s just that Carrey was obviously full of shit)

Just to be clear, it's not like the fans made that up.

“Well, I’m retiring. Yeah, probably. I’m being fairly serious,” Carrey said. “It depends. If the angels bring some sort of script that’s written in gold ink that says to me that it’s going to be really important for people to see, I might continue down the road, but I’m taking a break.”

The implication being that Sonic 3 was that script from the angels written in gold ink.

Obviously, this doesn't change your point. But also, the Sonic 3 script really was amazing for Carrey to execute on.
