I watched the first of the new Sherlock Holmes flicks on a large LCD monitor and enjoyed it for what it was, then attempted to watch the sequel on the MiL's gigantic Sony Aquos 3D LED Superduperuber TV but gave up after only a few minutes because it looked absolutely crappy, like some straight-to-video junk from 1983. Later I decided to give it another chance and watched it on the big LCD monitor and it looked magic, as good as the first one.
This high frame rate stuff looks to my eyes just like that Sherlock Holmes sequel did on the LED TV. To me it appears to have been shot with a handicam. That doesn't bother me because I think Tolkein's work sucks the big one in the worst way possible, and I have zero interest in the Hobbit, but I really hope this high FPS stuff is a fad that doesn't catch on.
