In the main commentary, Edwards and his fellow filmmakers Tony Leech and Todd Edwards talk more about the getting the tone of the film just right. "We didn't want to scare the kids," says Leech about the shadowy film noir feel, "but at the same time you wanted there to be some mystery and intrigue." Edwards reveals that there were many "debates" over this issue. "I wanted to scare the kids just a little bit," he says, "but not too much." Using "the language of film" was one way that Edwards and co. lightened the tone, eg recreating moments from Kill Bill (as Red and The Wolf eyeball each other).a b Edwards, Cory (May 19, 2007).

The premise of the movie sounds good - take an all star cast including Anne hathaway, Glenn Close and James Belushi, and a much loved tale...and tell the whole story, putting across everyone's arguments from Red Riding Hood, to Granny down to the Wolf...plus add a little mystery to the case...in this case a their who is stealing recipes from the townsfolk and disrupting their business which gives the movie more material to work with. Red starts her day making a delivery run for her Granny, who lives many miles away on the other side of the forest, delivering goods to various creatures around the forest ("Great Big World"), who all give her friendly greetings, while singing to herself about her desire to travel. It is revealed to us that Red is more worldly wise than she is letting on. Edwards, Cory (February 15, 2011). "Twitchy's Voice: The Sequel". coryedwards.com .
