I agree with you that the interpolation isn’t ideal, I’m not praising it. It’s merely a necessity for me to not get headaches. It’s also much less noticeable on its lowest settings, which serve just to take the edge off panning shots.
The “soap opera effect” is what people call video at higher than 24 fps in general, it has nothing to do with interpolation. The term has been used for decades before interpolation even existed. You seem to be confused on that point.
Source video at 120 looks no worse than at 24, that’s all I’m saying.
You have never seen a movie at 120fps. Gemini Man exists at 60fps and that is as close as you are going to get. That blu-ray is controversial due to that fps. I thought it was neat, but it 100% looks and feels different than other movies.
Thanks. I'll give it a try.

Please stop repeatedly misrepresenting what I said. This is not reddit.
I have repeatedly said that this is about the interpolation, and that I'm NOT judging things actually filmed at higher framerates, as I don't have experience with that.
> Source video at 120 looks no worse than at 24, that’s all I’m saying.
Again, give me an example. An example that is not video games, because that is not "filmed".
You are asserting that there's no such thing as something that's trivially and consistently repeatable, so forgive me for not taking you at your word that a 120fps filmed movie is free of soap opera effect. Especially with your other lying.
So actually, please take your misrepresentations and ad hominems to reddit.
Edit: one thing that looks much better with motion interpolation is panning shots. But it's still not worth it.
There is plenty of 50/60 and even 120 footage out there, some is even popular. I’m sure you can find it yourself.
I don’t see what I lied about or what Reddit has to do with anything. I will definitely stop replying to someone so needlessly aggressive.
