The difference is HFR isn’t just a preferential argument; it’s a technical one. It is closer to life and thus certainly more immersive.

I find it strange that somehow 24 fps has been deified. After all, we got 24fps because it was the slowest that we could move film through a projector and still get decent sound -- it had almost nothing to do with its visual quality at all. (When mo | | | | |
