I can agree things like sports are a lot better at high frame rates. You want to see what players are doing precisely in a live setting. But people don't watch sports in movie theaters. I'd argue stylistically the lower frame rate works a lot better on a big screen. There's also the fact that high frame rates on a big screen seem to cause some people to get motion sick. I personally have no issue w/ action scenes which are shot at 24fps. Yeah, there is a fair amount of blur but it all seems natural (at least on a cinema projector), and conveys the fast movement, even if it might not be precise. Take Jackie Chan's Drunken Master epic final fight scene for example - yes it's a bit blurry but I can make sense of everything going on. If anything it enhances the feeling of action - if this was shot at 60fps, it would look much more "real" and be a lot less enjoyable. 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwDU3IOBEIk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwDU3IOBEIk
