Not sure if they still do it this way, but they used to use two cameras alongside each other so they were filming the same thing from a slightly different angle. Then they would print both images with different tints on them onto the same print. Then if you watched them with the naked eye, they would look fuzzy and with slightly odd colours. However, when you watch with the two coloured lens glasses, the odd colours would be cancelled out and you would see one image in one eye and the other in the other. Hope this makes sense.

When I was younger, all the 3D movies were really bad, so I have never bothered watching them since. I suppose some action and western movies would be good in 3D.
