The V

Right you can probably guess the drill here and perhaps some of you may have one already but anyway...

Before a movie comes up these days it seems like there are five or six companies that 'present' or 'produce' etc etc. It's all over TV shows too. Some quick examples would be JJ Abram's Bad Robot, Joss Whedon's Mutant Enemy, Peter Jackson's Wingnut Films and James Cameron's Lightstorm Entertainment.

So, what would your company name be and why? When the day finally arrives and you are making a Hollywood blockbuster, what's the first title card going to be? You can, I suppose, be boring and just follow the 'Quentin Tarantino Presents' style but where's the fun in that? You get major bonus points if you have a little drawing to be your logo and can post that up too.

Go!

Runs Without Feet Entertainment!

(Yes, the ! will be part of it.)

Etc. House Productions. I'm sure there was a reason way back when, but damned if I can remember it.

Going as always for maximum confusion, I'd call mine Santa Brings Me.  So at the begining of the movie, it would say Santa Brings Me Presents.

Mine was going to be Spyglass Productions in 1997, so you can imagine how annoyed I was when i first saw Spyglass Entertainment's logo in front of a film the following year.

I've been grooming Melbatoast since then, but have recently been thinking of ditching it.  And while not URL affordable in my current state, I've been dancing around the idea of Persiflage Productions.  I have a backup, as well.  If they introduced a .PRO domain code, I'd scarf it up for both Melbatoast and Persiflage in a second, though, just to be prepared.

I've been bouncing this around for years. I had one called 'No Art Films' (to imply our artlessness and also as a kinda pro-genre movie statement) However, it suddenly occured to me when submitting to film festivals, that this was a terrible name for a company. I'm thinking of calling the new one Golden God Films because it sounds reasonably classy and is a Cameron Crowe reference. It's shit, but then I suck at naming stuff.

NECKBEARDS, INC.

Someone else should do UNREPTENTANT SODOMITE.

Back when I ran a website with someone we were End of Monkey Productions. Just liked the sound of it and I'd totally use that again.

I came up with "Favourite Crayon" because all my early comic strips were short and pointless.

God's Sorrier Creatures.

I told some friends this was the name of my hypothetical company and they said it was too emo, which made me sad as it's a Nick Cave lyric.

Mudgeon Hill

Named after a hill in the fictional Massachusetts town that appears in most of my stories and novels.

Local legend has it that some time in the 19th century a giant named Mudgeon lived in the clouds above Putnam. When violent storms came, he refused to leave his home and was eventually knocked out of the sky and fell to his death. The townspeople couldn't move the bastard, so they just piled dirt on top of him and named the resulting mound Mudgeon Hill. Years later, a very exclusive cemetery was established on Mudgeon Hill, where only the most affluent of the North Shore of Massachusetts could afford to be buried. Whether Mudgeon is really there or not, the rich like the symbolism of their final resting spot being next to a giant.

Varmint Productions, I guess.

It's not a Cameron Crowe reference, it's a Robert Plant reference that Cameron Crowe used. 

Undaunted Productions.

Y'know, because it's accurate.

DEWLine Productions.

Conversely, 'And The Ass Saw The Angel' would make a great name for an adult entertainment production company.
