I hear it's good for sports.



Sports are already shot at 60 fps. Same for any live TV events. It makes movies look terrible, like it was shot on video, to me and many others. Soap Opera effect. But for things that were shot live on video, it looks like what it is.

For the high frame rate version of The Hobbit that I saw, in my opinion it looked bad for character shots but cool for overhead action views.


Nowadays, TV sets can display a lot more that 60 fps (120, 144Hz sets are quite common).
