I don't want to start a war with one of our star singers from last nite but
I think Scott might be mixing two memories together.
The "even you Brendan" reference was from the early part of Brads talk
before any questions... as I said Brad said in the transcript (and i owe a
better copy, soon, soon..)
"The most important message from LEGO is this: “we trust you with our
brand”. We trust you to do the right things and not dishonor the brand… Even
Brendan!"
That was before any questions, so it wasn't a comment that was attached to
the "dark" LoTR answer.
Thats my recollection anyway. I wouldn't make too much of it but I did type
that entire transcript in the order it was said...
