Yorgos Lanthimos has issued a warning for the independent film sector, saying “it is getting more and more difficult” for independent films with “different themes” to get made.

“It has been a trend for a long time,” said Lanthimos, speaking at the press conference for his Venice Competition title Bugonia. “The weird and complicated thing about cinema is that it’s both art and entertainment. Because of the cost to make films, it becomes very challenging to choose which films are going to be made.”

"It's a very complicated landscape. I wouldn't rush to separate everything into categories."

One half of our dyamic duo will be at Rose City Comic Con next weekend thanks to PDX Guild of Geeks and Geek the Halls to talk about our first film, Browncoats: Redemption, and the impact it and other Browncoats had on the fandom.

Honored to say that the PDX Guild of Geeks and Geek the Halls are bringing our co-owner Michael Jayne to Rose City Comic Con for the “Firefly and Serenity: A history of the fandom 20 years later” panel!

If you’re in the Portland area, or coming in for the convention, I am going to be slow and using a cane, but I hope to see you.

Today’s not just about fireworks.

It’s about the freedom to tell your own story—loudly, proudly, and on your own damn terms.

At Big Damn Films, we believe in independence:

Independent voices.
Independent films.
Independent creators.

Whether you’re lighting up a grill or staying in with a good movie, we’re grateful to be building something bold and weird and real with all of you.

Happy Fourth from our big damn film family to yours.

Let’s keep making noise, making movies, and making each other proud.

On Memorial Day, we pause.

As a third-generation veteran-owned company, this day means more to us than words can say. We remember the fallen—not just as heroes, but as family, as stories, as sacrifice.
