Do you have proof that McG called him?

I did not witness the call if thats what you mean, but Harry did post about it on his twitter page. And I promptly asked if that sort of thing happens a lot, directors calling or e-mailing him about bad reviews. He said it didn't happen all that much, but it wasn't unheard of. I really have no reason to doubt his sincerity.
For the record though Quint is named for the character from Jaws.
