Never mind the battles and action scenes, just any scenes with normal movement of the camera.

There is a lot of panning in the initial scenes of The Hobbit (opening scene is the fall of Erebor). I watched that movie initially with the new higher frequency, and everything was soooo smooth. When I rewatched it, every single time I have to experience the terrible, terrible choppy, hard-to-see-anything lower frequency transformations and I cry. This is the 12st century, and the movies can't even pan across some landscape smoothly?

In that first viewing I saw everything in those caves, it was so easy. Oh how I miss that.



It's really infuriating that after decades of dealing with the implications of NTSC video systems not supporting 24 FPS the Blu Ray designers chose not to support 48 FPS even though 60 FPS is supported.
