Hi, I was just wondering if I don't want to get any film looks, just the 24p motion which plug-in would you recommened the standards conversion or film look?

You would want to go for the Standards Conversion, but do check out the filters in the Film Effects package. I use the curves filter for almost all my color correction now. And for most cases the film effects version of 24p (using the 2:3 pulldown) looks just great. I would go for Film Effects if I were you, but it depends on your needs.
If you want to edit on a 24fps timeline, then you'll need Standards Conversion. Also check out DV Film Maker as it does a fine job as well.

Do your own tests to see which you like better. There are demos all around.
