The funny thing about "gimmicks" like 3D, faster FPS, SuperHD, etc., is the pursuit of "realism" often turns out to be off-putting. The more "real" a visual presentation gets, the more ordinary it becomes; remember all the TV shows shot on videotape rather than film in the late 60s thru the 90s? If you look at them now, they seem quite more like home movies instead of network TV shows. The same can be said for all those "realist" films shot on handheld cameras after the success of "Easy Rider". Most audiences rather prefer the careful lighting and atmospheric film effects to films that make you feel like you're watching an expensive home movie. It's kind of like the difference between a photograph of a beautiful or dramatic scene and a well-executed painting of the same scene: one is documentary, the other is art...
