In Reply to: RE: Blu-ray makes everything look like a cartoon? posted by mbnx01 on May 28, 2009 at 12:58:24
A friends BD into his 120Hz Samsung to me looks cartoonish, but a BD on my old X1 PJ looks fine. Yes, maybe he could play with his settings, but he's thrilled and not a techy guy, so I'm not going to muddy his waters.
I think you're seeing display and/or setting issues more than anything.

What I see with live action (not animated movies, which look AMAZING on blu-ray) is pretty consistent. People look like they are on a set, with lighting (and lots of it). It's like I'm in the studio watching it being filmed, in stead of watching film.
The first time I saw a blu-ray clip from one of the Spiderman movies I couldn't get over how NOT LIKE FILM it looked.
I'm not sure this can be attributed to 'bad tv setup at the store', but maybe. I doubt I'll know till I try a blu-ray at home. I doubt that will be for many years.
As noted by others below, stores will pump things up to bring buyers in. If your consistant cartoon experience is only in stores and/or only with LCD's then I'll say what I said before; it's quite likely the setup (basically all stores do this) or the TV. I'm not saying BD maybe doesn't have some part at fault, but on a decent and properly set up (not a store trying to attract buyers) display you may feel otherwise.
I've always found LCD's to have cartoonish pictures. The higher Hz units to my eyes are even more so. Try a BD on a PJ, plasma or CRT and I think you MAY see things differently.
