I have an SDR Sony and the samsung player, it plays UHD's fine in SDR.

Question will my TV support the 60fps?, I think I read it did but not sure. Even without the HDR the 4k/HFR combo should look awesome, in case Hobbit comes out in HFR

We need better movies in HFR. Even if every movie trailer on YouTube is fake HFR, it still looks great.

I agree. I'm buying Billy Lynn purely based on HDR/HFR..I can't stand any of the cast and I don't like that genre of movie

If you have a Sony 4K TV then it will support 60p 4K signals.

Oh, this movie is terrible, and this is coming from someone who loves both the cast and genre. But that HFR tho.

I bought it as a demo disc only. I don't care for HFR personally, but it's an interesting example of exactly what the new UHD format can do when I'm showing people my setup.

Hate the film. Most Ang Lee films just don't seem to resonate with me, for whatever reason. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is the one exception; loved that one. And Life of Pi was an enjoyable watch, though I have to be in the right mood.

I dont like any of his movies, but I bough this used for just $12.50 since I am big supporter of HFR. I will approach this as I would a demo...I can't stand the kid playing Billy just from the 1:30 min trailer alone

You claimed to have purchased this almost a week ago. Why haven't you watched it yet?

I ordered a used copy from another forum member. I paid him last week so I am now waiting for him to ship it to me. With the weekend on the way and all, he had already informed me that shipping wouldnt happen until today.
I should have it by Thursday, I estimate

I am also curious to see how my Sony will handle the 60fps format...Sony has a slight advantage in overall motion compared to my LG 4K Oled, so even though I will lose HDR I might gain in slightly better motion quality on Sony

The UHD section of this site is literally the only place I see such HFR love. Which... makes sense, really.

Director intent and all. They can do no wrong.

I've never seen HFR before. This movie was pretty mediocre but I'd like to see HFR...

Is the Billy Lynn disc in HFR playing like the Hobbit 3D did in theaters? And if that is the case, is this really the preferred way to watch a movie?

I get it, more frames is a better number, but is it really desirable?

That is a very subjective question. Films have always been intended to look as close as reality as possible and the only factors to prevent that are technology and finances. Just like we want colors and shadows to be as close as possible to the real world so should go for motion
