With New York Comic Con rapidly approaching, Legion M--the world's first fan-owned entertainment company--is showcasing two of its current projects at NYCC, "Memory: The Origins of Alien" and "Jay and Silent Bob Reboot"! Legion M was the first fan-owned entertainment company to acquire a film out of Sundance when it picked up the fascinating feature-length documentary "Memory: The Origins of Alien" with its partner Screen Media. Legion M harnessed the power of fandom when its members used the company's innovative Film SCOUT platform during Sundance, which directly lead to Legion M acquiring "Memory."
"Memory: The Origins of Alien" - Debuts at select nationwide theaters and VOD on October 4!
- Legion M will be hosting three "Memory: The Origins of Alien" fan meetups at Cinema Village in New York City (10/4 at 7 p.m., 10/5 at 9:05 p.m., and 10/6 at 7 p.m.). Attendees will get a free limited-edition movie poster (while supplies last) and can also get a free limited-edition H.R. Giger egg pin (while supplies last). To join one of the three meetups and purchase movie tickets go to legionm.com/memory-meetups

- On Saturday, October 5 at 5:30 p.m. EDT at SYFY Wire's Live Stage, Join Mythbusters’ Adam Savage, Legion M’s VP of Development David Baxter, and the creative team behind pop culture documentarian Alexandre O. Philippe’s upcoming films "Memory: The Origins of Alien" and documentary short "Becoming Ripley," as they discuss the enduring impact of Ridley Scott’s cinematic "Alien" masterpiece 40 years on.
- "Alien" fans will want to stop by Legion M's Booth #746 for NYCC-exclusive "Memory: The Origins of Alien" merchandise, including a super cool NYCC-release "Chestburster" tee: Sketch was drawn by Dan O’Bannon, the screenwriter of "Alien," when he was concepting the classic Chestburster scene. The documentary "Memory: The Origins of Alien" takes a deep-dive into the making of the scene and the monster inside.
"Jay and Silent Bob Reboot" - Special Fathom Events screenings on October 15 and October 17
Legion M is not only a financier on "Jay and Silent Bob Reboot" but it's hooking up NYCC attendees with cool "Reboot" swag! Along with NYCC-exclusive merchandise for sale, anyone who stops by Legion M's Booth #746 dressed in Jay and Silent Bob cosplay or has proof of purchase to the Fathom Events screening will get a FREE ChronicCon lanyard and badge replica that is worn in "Jay and Silent Bob Reboot"!
