Former projectionist here. I'm in love with the 24 fps standard that is being dropped. The "fluidity" of the higher frame rates makes it look like you aren't watching a movie at all. This is what Jackson was going for, though. He wanted to give it a sense of reality. Not sure if I think it's a good change for the industry, though. It might alienate some long-time cinema-goers.
