Leda
Logline: The line between dream and reality begins to fade when newlywed Leda, living in her groom’s arboreal estate, finds herself impregnated by a supernatural force taking the form of a swan.
Elevator Pitch:
“Leda” is a 3D, black and white original film inspired by the controversial myth Leda and the Swan. The subject of thousands for pieces of art from painting to poetry, the myth now sets the stage for a tragedy of love, madness, and the divine. Leda and her husband begin a life together in a dream-like world of the past.

Lionsgate is releasing Dredd, one of my favorite sci-fi action films of 2012, on 3D Blu-ray on January 8. Directed by Pete Travis the film stars Karl Urban, Lena Headey, Olivia Thirlby, Wood Harris, Warrick Grier, and Porteus Xandau Steenkamp. This is the second adaptation of the comic, with the first being the 1995 film starring Sylvester Stallone. Urban is great as Judge Dredd, and the film has all the perfect elements of a fun action film. Where it falls short is it's scope and the lack of a strong villain.
Dredd takes place in the radioactive wasteland of “Mega-City One,” an urban sprawl with people living on-top-of-one-another.

Instead of having to wait for a criminal to go to trial,...
