It's a Michael Keaton biopic, pretty much. Actor plays superhero then everyone forgets about him and now he's old.
So you are saying that the Hobbit looks like a sports, talk show or news broadcast?
In a way, yes.
In what way?
As I said before, it's a look we've come accustomed to from (mis-)educating our brains into thinking that higher framerate is sports/news/etc from TV.
Reality runs at the same framerate so nothing should 'look like sports' just as nothing should 'look like movie'. But it does.

watched PK (india film) and ittttts awesome 
lots of "nod" to other old films too (terminator, et.. more).

would it matter since the difference is 1fps
movies are 24fps u.k tv is 25fps
It generally matters because TV broadcasts would be at 50hz as opposed to 24fps for film. In the US it's always been 60hz and I'm not entirely sure if the HD age switched us over to 60 too or we're still stuck at 50.
Either way, big difference indeed.
50i is really not the same as 25p.
50i is 50 (half) frames per second, therefore smoother.
25p is 25 full frames per second, therefore not as smooth.
Hence why 48p at the movies 'feels' smooth like TV broadcasts, and not like a 'normal' 24p film. Which is the argument everyone and their mother have used against the whole Hobbit movies running at higher fps. Also why they call it 'soap opera effect', as it looks more like TV, which runs at a higher framerate (50i/60i) since the days of standard television.

I'm just not convinced that not being used to it is the sole reason people think it looks like crap. Maybe the limitation of the traditional 24 fps projection is also a kind of visual abstraction layer enhancing the bigger-than-life look most movies are going for. People argue it's more realistic. I'm saying that's precisely the problem with it.
24p can never be considered more realistic, I don't think. It's the 'film look' we have been educated to for the last 100 years. I think it's all rubbish.

Should have been more clear: people in favor of hfr say it is more realistic. I'd have to agree. I just happen to think added realism isn't really a benefit.
is that a remix of birthday to you?

I wonder if at 1m 03s we are seeing Hemsworth losing his Thor powers for "good"
It kind of looks like the lighting is extracting out of him... I sure hope not.
Looks more like he's shooting it without the hammer. We'll see!I wonder if at 1m 03s we are seeing Hemsworth losing his Thor powers for "good"
