Could be culture. We are used to films looking a certain way and TV looking different, everything else could very well be rationaizations. Not that it changes much about the situation, though.
- taligent 14y agoIt is a cultural, subconscious effect. Higher frame rate content is associated with either real life (sports, news) or bad TV (soaps). I don't think the content association is the problem. The problem is that most people watch movies to escape from real life. It could be that higher frame rate is used for action movies e.g. Transformers and lower frame rate for dramas but I don't know how that would work. Oh and any argument about "getting used to it" can be shot down with 3D. The world has had plenty of time to adjust and overwhelmingly still hate it.
- zoul 14y agoThe problem is that most people watch movies to escape from real life. As I understand it, the problem is that movies are an illusion and in order for them to work, the viewers must buy into it, which is apparently a bit harder with higher framerate.
- agumonkey 14y agoThere's also a impressionist dimension to it. Like recent very high definition, very high quality models and organic animation, that all lacks some quality that you'd have with lower older games. I'd be happy to be proven wrong and enjoy a >24fps movie, but everytime I see one it breaks the magic badly.
