I'm wondering the same thing. The brightness fluctuations on this TV, especially in 3D, are making me seriously consider some other option. Cinema Smooth fixes it in 3D but then introduces flicker.

I would be so grateful to Robert if he could check the opening of Prometheus in 3D with his firmware and see if it fluctuates. It's very obvious from the waterfall panning up to the spaceship to the scenes of the engineer. I don't expect Robert to take the time to do it, but boy would I be grateful (I mean seriously).
