48fps does look a lot like a soap opera because that's how soaps are filmed. Basically soap operas ruined the technology for everyone because they're so ####ty and low budget, so that frame rate is inherently associated with "####ty and low budget". As a result people aren't able to suspend their disbelief, it's jarring. I guess what I'm saying is if you didn't like the 48fps thing, blame Days of our Lives.

I saw it in 24 so I wouldn't be distracted by the technology, may see in 48 and 3d later. Although it only sort of worked because there were a lot of points where you'd go "well that shot is clearly there just to show off the 3d."
