Quinn, the former co-founder of RADiUS, and League, co-founder and CEO of Alamo Drafthouse, had already acquired two films under their new venture, but had not released any details about the company itself. The pair purchased the Anne Hathaway monster movie “Colossal” at the Toronto International Film Festival in September and previously released Michael Moore’s “Where To Invade Next” in 2015, to indifferent box office results.
“Colossal” will screen as a part of the Sundance Spotlight sidebar. The movie hits theaters on April 7.
Neon will distribute films of various sizes, from wide theatrical releases to digital and VOD-focused titles.

Yesterday, the North American buyer of Toronto International Film Festival premiere “Colossal” seemed to be cloaked in mystery. Today, the truth turns out to be as cozy as a basket of poutine.
Tom Quinn and Tim League’s as-yet-unnamed company is the buyer, and while there’s still plenty to be learned — it’s backed by an unspecified Chinese-based media company — League and Quinn’s ties to the filmmaker extend nearly a decade.
As a Magnolia Pictures executive, Quinn released Vigalondo’s first film, “Timecrimes,” in 2008. That film also played Tim League’s Fantastic Fest, in 2007. Quinn and League, who are longtime friends, also became tight with Vigalondo, whose subsequent titles “Extraterrestrial” and “Open Windows” also played Fantastic Fest. “Open Windows” was even shot at League’s Alamo Drafthouse. (“Colossal” has already been announced as the Fantastic Fest closing-night film for later this month.)

The Toronto International Film Festival is the starting gate for fall acquisitions, but for buyers the greatest challenge isn’t their competitors; it’s a target audience that can’t be roused from their couches. That means indie distributors must amend their strategies — if not rewrite them altogether.
“A movie that tests 75 doesn’t warrant a theatrical release in the current marketplace,” said one indie studio executive. “Filmmakers are going to have to be okay with going to Netflix, and only Netflix.”
To that point, Netflix bought Svod rights to Ana Lily Amirpour’s “The Bad Batch” after its Venice Film Festival premiere — but theatrical remains available as it goes into Tiff. Netflix tends to reserve its theatrical platforms for awards titles. Without streaming rights, “The Bad Batch” would have to find a buyer who’s satisfied with only theatrical and DVD revenue.

The team behind acclaimed films like "It Follows" and "Citizenfour" is no longer in business with Harvey Weinstein, but he still controls their company. As Tom Quinn and Jason Janego prepare to announce the name of their new distribution partnership with Alamo's Tim League — which they launched with Michael Moore's first film in six years, "Where To Invade Next?," in theaters around the country — The Weinstein Co. is reconfiguring the company they left behind, three-year old multi-platform distributor RADiUS. After Quinn and Janego left Magnolia Pictures in fall 2011 to launch autonomous boutique distributor RADiUS at TWC, they had a great run, from their first film "Bachelorette" (which scored over $8 million on VOD) and horror breakout "It Follows" (which went wide to $14 million domestic) to their last release, "Goodnight Mommy" (the Austrian Oscar submission). Notably, they nabbed three...

Michael Moore has long been the biggest advocate for his home city of Flint, Michigan. When General Motors CEO Roger Smith closed numerous auto plants in the 1980s and sent the community into a economic depression, Moore picked up his camera to document the consequences and make his debut film, "Roger and Me." Recently, the Flint, Michigan water crisis has sent the city into national headlines, and just last month Moore wrote a powerful op-ed for Time lashing out at the government negligence to poisoning Flint's people.

At Moore's behest, the film's new, still-unnamed distributor, founded by exiting TWC-Radius partners Tom Quinn and Jason Janego and thriving Alamo Drafthouse exhibitor and arthouse distributor Tim League, pushed the film's wider release to the heart of the presidential primary season. (Though shortlisted, the film did not make the final Oscar five after qualifying engagements in New York and L.A. in December.) Now, the filmmaker's hugely entertaining agitprop doc "Where to Invade Next," his first in five years, will be preceded by a 50-state bus tour, with Moore in the role of campaigning politician—in this case, by echoing the film's cheeky, provocative case for the U.S. to adopt various European social programs. Read More: "Oscar Documentary Shortlist of 15 Revealed" "We hope to remind Americans they have the inalienable right to laugh, especially in an election year," the distributors said upon picking up the film, shortly before it.

In a timely move that will drum up more awards season publicity for his latest documentary, Michael Moore has publicly rejected the MPAA’s ‘R’ rating for Where To Invade Next.
The ratings body cited Moore’s film “for language, some violent images, drug use and brief graphic nudity.” Every one of his films has received the ‘R’ rating.
Distributors Tom Quinn, Jason Janego and Tim League have joined Moore in the appeal ahead of the film’s December 23 Us release.
“What is the real reason I keep getting all these ‘R’ ratings?” said Moore in a statement. “I wish the MPAA would just be honest and stick a label on my movies saying: ‘This movie contains dangerous ideas that the 99% may find upsetting and lead them to revolt.’
“Teens will be the most agitated when they learn they will soon be $80,000 in debt just by going to school.”

Last week I went and saw the horror film Goodnight Mommy, and as my brain was crying and the audience was epically disturbed, I realized that this was possibly the last release I would see under the Radius-twc banner. Earlier this year Tom Quinn and Jason Janego, the co-founders of the independent distributor, left the company in order to start a new one with Drafthouse (which we’re all jazzed about). Ever since then, the lights seem to be off at Radius with no signs of turning back on. So now, we take a look at just how successful they were in their all too brief but memorable run, which saw them giving great releases to challenging films like Only God Forgives, It Follows, Snowpiercer and Blue Ruin. It’s time to looks at the career batting line for their domestic theatrical releases.

Twenty-six years ago -- (Michael Moore reminded me how long ago it was) -- I was an acquisitions consultant for Warner Bros. and discovered a new documentary at the Independent Feature Film Market. I ran to the payphone (yes, pre-cell phone days) downstairs at the Anjelica Film Center and called my boss to tell her she must see it. The film was "Roger & Me." Warner Bros. picked up the film.
Since then, Moore continued making provocative and impassioned films, including the Academy Award-winning "Bowling for Columbine," "Sicko," "Fahrenheit 9/11," and "Capitalism: A Love Story." Moore’s latest film, "Where to Invade Next" explores the current state of the nation.
Moore: “My film is about us. I just decided to tell a story about America without shooting a single frame of the movie in the United States.”
Former Radius Founders and Co-Presidents Tom Quinn and Jason Janego are teaming with Alamo Drafthouse Founder and CEO Tim League to form the yet-to-be-named distribution label and will distribute "Where to Invade Next."
Here are highlights from the New York Film Festival press screening.
The idea for the film
“I was 19 and I just dropped out of college. I got the Eurail pass and youth hostel card and spent a couple of months going around Europe. I was in Sweden and broke a toe, and I was sent to a clinic. I went to pay the bill and there was no bill. I never heard of such a thing. And all through Europe I kept running into things like that. And I thought why can’t we do that? The idea grew organically as most of the things do in my films.”
Planning ahead
“Don’t give me too much credit for thinking this out a whole lot in advance. We don’t think it would be really cool to sit down at the lunch table with a can of Coke and see what the kids do.
The best stuff is what I don’t plan out. What my field producers do in terms of research -- I have them tell me only the basics, I don’t want to know any of the research. When the Italian couple (in the film) tells me about the 15 days paid vacation, this is the first time I’ve heard it, even if the field producers know it. I don’t want to act. We don’t do a second take. If the sound guy says we didn’t get it, you can’t ask them (the subjects) to do it again. We’ve seen too many documentaries like that. It has to happen with them and me in the moment.”
No, Michael Moore is not running for office
“…to say that you have the right to regulate a woman’s uterus but not guns? It’s like, I think the only safe place for guns is in a woman’s uterus. Then they would be regulated by our Republican congress!
I talk politically a lot, but if I really just wanted to make political speeches, I would run for office or give sermons.”
“I went to pick the flowers and not the weeds.”
A line from Moore’s film, which he further details: “Every country has a lot of problems. I didn’t go there to make a film about your countries. There are a lot of things you’re dealing with, but that’s not my film. My film is about us, not about you. I just decided to tell a story about America without shooting a single frame in the United States.”
About Michael Moore’s Happiness
“The difference about this film (compared to his others), some people say it’s not so angry, (that) I’m happier. I’m angrier than ever. Maybe I came up with a more subversive way to deal with that anger with the condition of this country.”
In closing
“We’re filmmakers. We love the art of cinema and we love what it can do to move people through fiction or non-fiction.”

Since then, Moore continued making provocative and impassioned films, including the Academy Award-winning "Bowling for Columbine," "Sicko," "Fahrenheit 9/11," and "Capitalism: A Love Story." Moore’s latest film, "Where to Invade Next" explores the current state of the nation.
Moore: “My film is about us. I just decided to tell a story about America without shooting a single frame of the movie in the United States.”
Former Radius Founders and Co-Presidents Tom Quinn and Jason Janego are teaming with Alamo Drafthouse Founder and CEO Tim League to form the yet-to-be-named distribution label and will distribute "Where to Invade Next."
Here are highlights from the New York Film Festival press screening.
The idea for the film
“I was 19 and I just dropped out of college. I got the Eurail pass and youth hostel card and spent a couple of months going around Europe. I was in Sweden and broke a toe, and I was sent to a clinic. I went to pay the bill and there was no bill. I never heard of such a thing. And all through Europe I kept running into things like that. And I thought why can’t we do that? The idea grew organically as most of the things do in my films.”
Planning ahead
“Don’t give me too much credit for thinking this out a whole lot in advance. We don’t think it would be really cool to sit down at the lunch table with a can of Coke and see what the kids do.
The best stuff is what I don’t plan out. What my field producers do in terms of research -- I have them tell me only the basics, I don’t want to know any of the research. When the Italian couple (in the film) tells me about the 15 days paid vacation, this is the first time I’ve heard it, even if the field producers know it. I don’t want to act. We don’t do a second take. If the sound guy says we didn’t get it, you can’t ask them (the subjects) to do it again. We’ve seen too many documentaries like that. It has to happen with them and me in the moment.”
No, Michael Moore is not running for office
“…to say that you have the right to regulate a woman’s uterus but not guns? It’s like, I think the only safe place for guns is in a woman’s uterus. Then they would be regulated by our Republican congress!
I talk politically a lot, but if I really just wanted to make political speeches, I would run for office or give sermons.”
“I went to pick the flowers and not the weeds.”
A line from Moore’s film, which he further details: “Every country has a lot of problems. I didn’t go there to make a film about your countries. There are a lot of things you’re dealing with, but that’s not my film. My film is about us, not about you. I just decided to tell a story about America without shooting a single frame in the United States.”
About Michael Moore’s Happiness
“The difference about this film (compared to his others), some people say it’s not so angry, (that) I’m happier. I’m angrier than ever. Maybe I came up with a more subversive way to deal with that anger with the condition of this country.”
In closing
“We’re filmmakers. We love the art of cinema and we love what it can do to move people through fiction or non-fiction.”
The New York Film Festival runs from September 25 – October 11. http://www.filmlinc.org/nyff2015/

Michael Moore might have turned a new leaf with his topical, engaging, simple and endearing Tiff premiered Where to Invade Next but so have Tom Quinn, Jason Janego and Tim League. IndieWire reports that Alamo Drafthouse founder and CEO has joined forced with former RADiUS founders and co-presidents for what will be a new, unnamed distrib entity. After shepherding Laura Poitras’ Citizenfour, Quinn and Janego have landed another under the radar docu item that is set to ruffle some feathers. The current quandary is do they throw in the anchor for the 2015 calendar (measuring up against The Look of Silence, Amy and Cartel Land) or wait until a specific, more politically friendly date? Thanksgiving has been mentioned.
Gist: This follows Moore as he tries to figure out how to make America better by “invading” other countries to see how they operate and handle a wide range of social, economic and political issues.

Less than two months after leaving the Weinstein fold, Tom Quinn and Jason Janego have resurfaced with a new partnership with Alamo Drafthouse founder Tim League to distribute Where To Invade Next.
The venture, the name and details of which are expected to be revealed shortly, marks a notable return to the fray for Quinn and Janego, who quit RADiUS in August after four years in the job.
The film will get a theatrical release in December. Further details will further illuminate what is expected to be an unorthodox strategy given the track records of the three partners.
“Together with Michael Moore and his extraordinary new film we hope to remind Americans they have the inalienable right to laugh, especially in an election year,” said the three executives. “We’re thrilled about our new label and can’t think of a better film or filmmaker to launch with.”

As Weinstein Co. suffered mounting executive defections over the past year, including senior VP Julie Rapaport to Amazon Studios, it was a severe blow when top lieutenant David Glasser announced his departure July 30, followed by the respected Radius team of Tom Quinn and Jason Janego. Glasser was seen as a pivotal exec to running the company, which has been slow to pay its bills of late, leading to speculation about cash flow. Relativity Media president Tucker Tooley reportedly was in talks to join TWC, which never came to fruition. After negotiations over the Labor Day weekend, Glasser changed his mind and has committed to a new deal to extend his seven-year run as chief operating officer and president. The timing was key: right before the Toronto Film Festival. (Glasser spoke to Variety here.) “I couldn’t imagine continuing this journey without David. He knows the company has huge assets that...

The Weinstein Company's Julie Rapaport is leaving for Amazon Studios, where she will serve as a development executive as production head Ted Hope and his boss Roy Price's original feature film slate rapidly expands. Rapaport began seven years ago at TWC as assistant to Weinstein COO and dealmaker David Glasser, who will be exiting the company this Fall. Rapaport's projects include October-dated "Burnt," whose awards chances look slim, as well as "Big Eyes," "August: Osage County" and "The Giver." This is the latest shakeup at the cash-strapped Weinstein Company, which recently shifted "Macbeth" from its main slate to the autonomous Radius for a late 2015 theatrical release, to be followed by VOD play on Amazon in early 2016.

Screendaily has confirmed that Tom Quinn and Jason Janego, the pair who founded the theatrical and VOD day-and-date enterprise four years ago under the auspices of TWC, have left the mothership.
The former Magnolia Pictures colleagues Quinn and Janego are lining up a new company and will reveal plans in due course.
Meanwhile Screendaily understands the official line is that Harvey and Bob Weinstein are pleased with the Radius model and intend to keep the label alive with no redundancies planned for the small staff.
TWC will continue to weigh up the awards prospects of Macbeth. Radius recently brokered an Svod rights deal with Amazon but was not set to release the film itself theatrically.

Variety has reported that Tom Quinn and Jason Janego, the pair who founded the theatrical and VOD day-and-date enterprise four years ago under the auspices of TWC, have left the mothership.
The report claims former Magnolia Pictures colleagues Quinn and Janego plan to start a new company and that TWC intends to keep the Radius label alive.
At time of writing it remained unclear whether there would be redundancies or a scaling-down at the boutique distributor. Clarity was also lacking on reports elsewhere that the partners were planning to move into the theatrical-only prestige business with partial backing from TWC.
The future of the outstanding Radius release slate remained uncertain, as did the fate of two possible awards season prospects for the months ahead - Macbeth and documentary The Hunting Ground.
Neither TWC nor Radius spokespeople had returned calls at time of writing.

Tom Quinn and Jason Janego, heads of Radius-twc, are exiting the company after four years to pursue a new theatrical venture, an individual familiar with the move told TheWrap. The men joined Harvey Weinstein’s studio in 2011 to launch the spinoff division Radius-twc — a multi-platform endeavor that pioneered several titles in day-and-date release format like Kirsen Dunst’s “Bachelorette” and last year’s Oscar-nominated “Snowpiercer.” While media reports Wednesday said the pair would launch a rival service to Radius-twc, the individual said Quinn and Janego are looking to break into the traditional theatrical model, leaving streaming and VOD behind.

Iconoclastic in their acquisitions and in their release strategies, Radius-twc presidents/co-founders Tom Quinn and Jason Janego are walking away from the company they started in 2011, and plan to start a new one. (Variety reports, and Deadline counterspins.) This is the latest shakeup at the cash-strapped Weinstein Company, which just last week lost Chief Operating Officer David Glasser. And whither Shakespeare adaptation "Macbeth"? TWC just recently shifted this high-profile awards hopeful from its main slate to the autonomous Radius for a late 2015 theatrical release, to be followed by VOD play on Amazon in early 2015. That could signal the direction Quinn and Janego are heading, as Harvey Weinstein has long nurtured a relationship with Netflix.

It was all about the past, present, and future of the way people watch movies, from the perspective of two of the guys who keep changing the way people watch movies. Jump forward less than two years and RADiUS-twc has shaken up the industry yet again. All it took was a little indie horror movie called It Follows and a whole lot of confidence. The effects of that movie's success may not be immediately obvious, but as Alamo Drafthouse owner Tim League pointed out, Quinn's unprecedented release plan, which seemingly overnight...
