    Because you're used to 30 fps for film, that's all.
    30 fps feels like shit for video games because it's less reactive to your controls.

    you mean 24fps?
    for better or worse we've been brainwashed and hardwired to dislike 30fps for movies, it makes it feel "cheap" unlike 24fps.

      Movies are 24fps and that's only because Hollywood has always been cheap bastards.

      Some movies have been filmed in 30fps as opposed to 24fps.
      Notably, Oklahoma and Around the World in 80 days were filmed in Todd-A0 which was at 30fps.
      Each scene was filmed twice, in 24fps for most theatres, and again at 30fps. You can get the DVDs for Oklahoma in both 24 and 30fps and see the difference.
      But 24fps or 30fps for films may "feel" better than higher framerates because in the past low budget television was recorded on cheap videotape at 60 interlaced (fields) per second, instead of expensive film, so people were conditioned to associate higher framerates with low production values, hence the "soap opera effect". But gamers know higher framerate is objectively better.

    The whole 24 thing being a stylistic choice from the beginning narrative is an attempt to rewrite history. The truth is 24 was just cheaper to market for huge screens to project at cinemas so people got used to it.

    It doesn't. 60fps movies are fricking awesome.

    Convention. TV broadcasts are often at 60fps, but when a movie reaches that framerate natively (as in, no stupid interpolation like you get from certain youtube clips) people complain that it looks cheap and sitcom-like because they're used to high framerates being associated with those things.

    Cinema is like theater with a timer, movies are constructed to follow a 24xHz rhythm.

      For a better visualization see Mellies, his movies had movement that matched framecutting but at different rate as this was before the 24 standard was settled.
