I am quite curious about this process.  Back when I did 3D animation, the motion blur algorithms were new and didn't quite have the right look.  But heaven forbid you rendered without motion blur.  Even 30fps looked quite jumpy without it.  Also- Looney Tunes and other old school animation was drawn at 12fps, with every frame doubled to get to 24.  So they had to hand draw a lot of motion blur in, and they were pioneers in the art.

Yeah, I am very curious about the process too. A few days before The Hobbit came out, I was at a friend's house and we were talking about the 48fps thing, my friend's wife swore up and down that the movie was actually filmed twice, with two cameras mounted together, one filming in 24fps and the other recording in 48fps and there was no convincing her this wasn't the case. Because of this conversation, I did a google search to try to read more about the conversion process and came up with nothing substantial or even informative.

As good looking as the hobbit in 5k 48 and 3d and all that jazz was, it still did not hold a candle to 70mm.

I don't think film is dead just yet.

Really? A candle? I've never seen a 70mm film that looked like that.
