The Hobbit looked like a BBC TV show compared to LOTR. That said, I don't pay enough attention to film these days so maybe people have gotten better at it and I'm watching 48 fps all the time.

The hobbit had a 1/96 shutter, which is what made it feel like a TV show. The actual fps barely had an effect on its look.
