"he didn't want to be credited for the first movie, but when they did he was pissed and didn't return for the second one."

No it wasn't that he did not want to be credited (that would be daft). The problem was that he agreed to do the film at standard union rate providing that his voice was not used on any merhandise that he film generated (but they did use it). He was always going to be credited on the film itself.
