Default Movies with high framerates.

I'm currently watching Byzantium, the most immersing experience I've ever had with movie. All because of the high frame rate and low amounts of motion blurring. I actually don't know how to explain this other than it's like it's happening right in front of your face.

Know of any other movies that have high framerates, and almost no motion blurring?


EDIT: Why isn't this a thing? Why don't other films do this? Why haven't we done this earlier?

The Hobbit was recorded at 48 frames in 3D, no idea if the Blu-ray has 48 frames on blu though...

Even things like soap operas and documentaries have higher frame rates than films. I don't know why I noticed, but when I was much younger and watching the behind the scenes of the first TR film, I noticed the film footage compared to the backstage footage was much more 'cinematic' if you like. Only a while later did I learn it was because of the frame rate being lower, at 24fps I think. I don't know why that is the case. But I definitely prefer it with 24fps. It feels much more cinematic.

Avatars 2, 3 and 4 will be filmed at 48fps.

I think I might actually prefer the higher frame rate.

The reason it may look odd:
Our brain takes the 24fps and pieces them together, we have to "imagine" what happens in-between the frames. With 48fps the brain doesn't need to fill in as much, making it appear more "lifelike".
