  High rez versus high refresh...

So I just watched a few movies on Blu Ray, on a 1080p TV that refreshed 
at 120 Hz.

Specifically, "Sleepy Hollow," "Wall-E," and "TCoN: Prince Caspian."

And, my reaction in general was:

YIPPEE!

Seriously, the quality was absolutely astounding!  If I weren't already 
trying to pay down my debt, I would be sorely tempted to go out and get 
a new home theatre today :)

Of course, this brings me to the point of my post... that as nice as the 
added resolution of 1080p is, it didn't do nearly as much for the 
picture as having a 120Hz refresh rate.  The movement is absolutely 
amazing!  I can't wait until video is recorded at this rate natively, 
rather than interpolated by the TV!
