The TrueMotion stuff drives me crazy. Chalk it up to being raised on movies filmed at 24fps, plus a heavy dose of FPS games (Wolf, Doom, Quake) as a kid, but frame rate interpolation instantly makes it feel less like a movie and more like I’m watching a weird “Let’s Play.”

christmas day, walked into a relative’s living room to watch football and the players were literally gliding across the screen. lol

for me it ruins cinematic content, for sports i don't mind

It ruins it for me as well but from my understanding many people can't tell the difference.

Yes! A lot people can't tell the difference. It's just sad. Tells you how engaged people are with what they they watch.

I briefly feel bad for them but then I remind myself who am I to judge how they perceive things? It is possible that they get the same enjoyment from the story with all the effects and artifacts these TVs have. When I was a kid we had this smallish (probably 14-15") B/W TV set in my kitchen. Sometimes my whole family would watch a movie on that TV set and we were all absorbed into the movies, it didn't matter the TV set was small and colorless, back then I hadn't even seen a TV broadcast in colors. It's all relative I guess. Sometimes I think this soap opera effect is even worse than watching movies on that small TV set form my childhood but then again, who am I to judge?
