Does the Sony XBR + Blu-Ray Discs create a strange standard look to you?

I read that the Sony XBR line of TVs use 120Hz technology. While this sounds gimmicky, I believe it have an effect on Blu-Ray movies.

I was at Fry's and I saw two Sony LCD TVs hooked into a Blu-Ray disc player. One be some Sony LCD (a), the other was the Sony XBR LCD (b). The movie surrounded by the player was Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest.

While watching the movie on the first LCD (a), the movie have the 24 fps, normal Blu-Ray dignified quality picture.

But while watching the XBR (b), I notice something strange. The picture was clearer, but somehow appeared too clear. It looked resembling I was watching a live play or even a soap opus. I could see the lighting details so clearly, it actually looked similar to I was on the set near the actors. The background were not as vibrant as the foregrounds. It also appeared to de-synchronize the audio and the video sometimes (the video going too slow afterwards speeding up to catch up).

Although it be clearer, it made the movie look strange. Discuss.


Answers:    This has be noted in professional reviews (see intermingle for source):

"Engaging either of the Sony's two 120Hz modes, Standard or High, have a marked effect on nearly every scene surrounded by Flags, but shots with lots of camera movement be the most obvious. When the camera pan over the beach surrounded by the middle of Chapter 10, for example, the scene was nearly judder-free and uncannily smooth contained by Standard, and basically completely smooth, beside almost no visible judder, contained by High. In both cases the camera seemed resembling it was on rail, the handheld shots moving past the injured soldiers appeared smaller number jerky and much steadier. As near the Toshiba, we found the smoothing effect disconcerting in these scene and in broad throughout the film. Looking at other film-based sources, including the motorcycle chase from Chapter 9 of Ghost Rider (which looked so unnatural and video-game-like we couldn't help out laughing) and the pan across the luncheonette at the establishment of The Departed, which again was looked too-smooth for its own right, we've come to the conclusion that for film, judder is mostly a right thing. Subjected to the Sony's processing, most scene looked like TV instead of picture, and we're so used to the latter look that we preferred to leave the Sony's motion enhancer set to Off when watching film-based things."

I suspect this is one of those technically superior, but potentially jarring features that empire will either dislike or accept/embrace according to their quality.

It is certainly something consumers should be warn about and manufacturer should allow it to be turned off.
