We ask away.

Were used to the story being very much a campy fairytale.

Is this version meant to be darker?

I also think the way its shot is quite beautiful, its quite hyper-real, particularly with the 3D.

How are you finding that process?

Its really not pleasant.

It takes a long time to shoot a movie anyway, but this just makes it a lot harder.

How does it make it harder?

I still dont understand it.

The cameras make it cumbersome.

There are some technical issues with them, because I think theyre very new.

I know that fight sequences are difficult to shoot, because of the way the perspective is in 3D.

How do you find it as a cinemagoer?

I dont need it Im okay!

Its not my thing.

But, anyway, I think it will look beautiful.

It will look beautiful!

Do you think 3Ds a phase, or will it have a lasting impact?

I hope it does decline, honestly.

I think for certain things 3Ds really fun, you know.

But it makes you nauseous, and to me its a gimmick.

And I dont put a lot of stock in gimmicks.

So I dont know the answer!

Stanley Tucci, thank you very much.
