    Shooting at 24fps with a 180' shutter angle is the same as 48fps at 360' angle. They both expose the film for 1/48th of a second, the main difference is that at 24fps you "blank out" for 1/48th between frames... the motion blur is the same however, you just get "all" the frames instead of 1 out of 2.

    That being said, projectors in cinemas are usually projecting at 48fps, pulled up from the original 24fps stock... so don't worry about the look of this one, if anything, it's going to be Peter Jackson's aesthetic choices that will make this ugly and not the technology.
