The San Francisco-based online platform takes advantage of the new Jobs Act allowing general solicitation of accredited investors.
A pool of investors can now use the Junction facility to put money into two fully financed projects.
A Hologram For The King is financed by Silver Reel and stars Tom Hanks while Triple Nine is backed by Worldview and stars Casey Affleck, Chiwetel Ejiofor and Kate Winslet.
The accredited investor pool comprises roughly 10m Americans who earn more than $200,000 a year or have a net worth exceeding $1m excluding primary residence. Prior to the Jobs Act, filmmakers were only allowed to ask money from people they knew.
Endgame Entertainment, PalmStar and Qed are also said to be working with Junction on current projects.
Junction is led by CEO Adam Kaufman, a former investment banker at Goldman Sachs and lawyer at Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz, and president Brian Goldsmith, a former CBS television producer.

The Hallmark Channel's countdown to Christmas is fully under way with the premiere of its new holiday movie, "The Thanksgiving House." Starring "Haven" star Emily Rose, the movie tells the story of a house that might actually be the site where the first Thanksgiving was held.
The movie hits the notes of all traditional Hallmark movies: a troubled love story, daddy issues and a great heart. Rose's character Mary Ross is a lawyer who inherits the Plymouth home from her late aunt and initially wants to sell, but warms to the location and its connection to Thanksgiving as time passes.
Her greedy boyfriend Rick (Adam Kaufman) tries to convince her to sell the home, but it's local historian Everett Mather (Justin Bruening) who helps her realize why the home -- and Thanksgiving -- are so important.
Mary also has a conflict with her father, which she ends up deciding to...

The 50th anniversary of "Doctor Who" could get a whole lot cooler if fans of the show have any say in the matter. One of them, a New Yorker named Adam Kaufman, has a great idea. In order to properly celebrate, why not turn the Empire State Building into a giant Tardis?
Adam has launched a petition asking that the building be lit up in Tardis blue on November 23, the date the 50th anniversary special will air around the world. It's not unusual for the building to be lit up to celebrate big moments in pop culture, so why would "Doctor Who" be any different?
Adam's petition has passed 20,000 signatures en route to it's goal 25,000, which will be submitted to the building's management. The paperwork to become a lighting partner has already been turned in. If you want to support the cause, head over to the petition and sign away.

Poppy Montgomery comes from a family of colorful names - and her son Jackson almost also ended up with a name that would have been a bit unfortunate.
The "Unforgettable" star stopped by Access Hollywood Live on Monday, where she revealed that her 3-year-old son with actor Adam Kaufman was not initially named Jackson.
"We were going to call him Jack, but his last name is Kaufman, and if you say Jack Kaufman three times fast..." she told Billy Bush and Kit Hoover, with a laugh.
"A week before I gave birth, his grandpa walks in - ...

A marine is run over, but he is already stabbed and dead. McGee (Sean Murray) removes sprinkles from a donut. Tony (Michael Weatherly) stood him up, they were meant to meet at a bar at the Air and Space Museum. Ziva (Cote de Pablo) asks if they're both dating now.

Ziva thinks they're like an old married couple. Gibbs (Mark Harmon) doesn't agree, they're still speaking. Ducky (David McCallum) finds the Vic was stabbed with a big knife.

A couple out for a walk, sing the mocking bird song to their baby, as Gibbs (Mark Harmon) used to sing to Kelly. Then hear gunshots and find a woman kneeling over the man's body. Tony (Michael Weatherly) says something very special "is happening to very special agent Anthony Dinozzo today." Ziva (Cote de Pablo) asks who he's seeing Kurosawa? She didn't know he was into Asian women. He's into all women as if she doesn't know! Tony: "Kurosawa's a dude." Ziva: "I certainly did not know you were into Asian dudes." He's the greatest filmmaker, made the Seven Samurai and The Hidden Fortress. Ziva mentions her book being a work of art and Tony asks her if she's got the new Judy Bloom. He always liked 'God Are You there, It's Me Margaret'. Another book comment from Tony, why has he read that particular book. Ziva meant the Declaration...
