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."
Not sure you can blame soap operas. It isn't like everyone who is complaining about 48 FPS watches soap operas and automatically thinks about them.

Not once while watching the Hobbit did my mind think about soaps, it just looked cheap and fake because the technology sucks.

The first time I saw HD was a totally different feeling. That looked crisp, clear and amazing. This looked fast forwarded, cheap and jarring.
