TMP made money, $139 million in 1979. The problem was the budget for TMP had ballooned to $44 million, cutting into profitability, and Paramount expected it to be bigger based on Star Wars (~$775 million in 1977).
IIRC if you adjust for inflation, TMP bests each of the other films in box-office.

If they went digital only, they'd probably entertsin licensing the right to print to another company (assuming they don't just license the characters rather than do digital comics, but I've seen a lot of speculation about using digital editions to expand content delivered through Netflix as a goal)

Not really a comic, but a fun celebration of old comics (old in 1971) with articles and lots of pinups. #TopShelfFriday #comics #comicsky

The MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE movies. Loved the TV Series, so Peter Graves and Gregg Morris talking about how the 1st film trashed the TV series made the films a never watch for me.

GAME OF THRONES - when people began insisting I read it online (the first place I'd heard of it), they - strangers to me - all obsessed over how 'real' and 'gritty' it was by...constantly bringing up that two characters are in an incestuous relationship.

Rewatched it recently for the first time since I rented it on VHS back in the day. It's a fun film.
Iirc, the Blue Monkey was supposed to be tied to one of the kids talking about a nightmare they had, and the name gets applied to the insects later but the scene got cut.
