What if the 1963 movie Jason of the Argonauts had smoother stop-motion animation for its effects scenes made by the famous Ray Harryhausen? I used an AI prog...
I think that the movie compensated for the low frame rate of animation by reducing the overall speed of (most) of what they animated because they were pushed to the technical limitations of the time.
As an armchair expert, it seems as though there was a compromise between the frame rate and the overall speed of what was animated in the film; if the animations moved any faster than they currently do then I suspect that it would look really janky in the original and the audience would become aware of how low the framerate was, so when you improve the fluidity of the stop-motion animation it reveals the slow movements of what was animated in the film to be much more obvious.
