That's exactly my complaint about the motion-smoothing tech on HD TVs. Especially for a fantasy movie where I don't want it to look like people, because then it just looks like actors. I want it a gloss of artificiality so I know I'm looking at Frodo or Gandalf, not Elijah Wood or Ian McKellan.

Perhaps, but then again the first color movies don't look like what eventually became the standard for color movies. No one gets a new technology right the first time because they don't know how to use it yet. It's going to have short comings, it's going to "feel" wrong, and it's going to change in response to feedback and experience.
