I totally understand what you mean when saying it looks fake. I remember my first time experiencing BluRay at a Best Buy and I felt the same way. It looked too good. Then my Aunt and Uncle bought an HD TV and I got more than just a few minutes experiencing it. My brain adapted and now just like everyone else I look at super clean HD videos and think they look awesome!

The uncanny issues people have with 48fps and used to have with HD are all psychological. I'm betting if you/any non believer could spend a few days only watching movies in 48fps, you'd lose that feeling of fakeness.


But why bother? 24fps are just fine for films. 48fps looks too real even the enviroments look like sets.

I just hope Cameron doesn't take movie making in the wrong direction again like he did with 3D and in the worst case I hope there's always a 24fps version of the movie.

Don't worry. Just like with color, HD, and 3D, the formats still contain all the information of primitive cinema. It would be a piece of cake for you to set up your TV to play everything at 24fps.

I guess I should mention though that I love 3D and Avatar is one of my favorite films. My views on this are practically invalid lol.
