    i just wanna say, i am so sick of this 120Hz & 240Hz HDTV bullshit. even if money were no object and i could get whatever i wanted, i'd still go with a regular 60Hz TV. i can't stand how the +120Hz tvs make movies filmed in 24 fps look like your day to day 30 fps sitcoms. i don't fucking want that. i want my films to look like films. not like they were filmed infront of a live studio audience. UGH! fucking hate where this TV tech is headed.
