Had this reflection that 144hz screens where the only type of screen I knew, that was not a multiple of 60. 60 Hz - 120hz - 240hz - 360hz

And in the middle 144hz Is there a reason why all follow this 60 rule, and if so, why is 144hz here

    Yep! Not the only issue with it, but certainly one of them.

    We also have everyone associating smooth motion with soap operas because of cheap digital television cameras (IIRC).

    I like higher framerates. Sweeping shots and action scenes in 24fps can be so jarring when you’re used to videogames.

      Specially using modern displays, too. I don’t particularly care about cinema, but on a modern OLED panel seeing a scene shot at 24 FPS can straight up give me a headache, the stuttering motion is so bad. I’ll take 60 FPS everyday.

      Staying at 24 FPS because that’s a “cinematic experience” would be like trying to develop Grand Theft Auto 5 as a SNES game because sprites are the “videogametic experience”
