I have a 24" at the moment that uses 1920x1080 and most of the reasonable priced 27" monitors use the same res would it look stupid on a 27"?

It doesn't look 'stupid' at all. I review and use monitors of all different sizes and resolutions. I'm using a 1080p 27" monitor right now as I type this and it really didn't take me long to adjust to such a pixel pitch. Whilst I agree that a higher resolution is desireable on a monitor of this size for desktop work I don't shield my eyes in disgust! It is the physical size you will probably notice first and foremost but this is also easy enough to adjust to. Going the other way is harder though. ;)
 
I used to use a dell 2407wfp at 1920x1200
I now have the samsung s27a950d at 1920x1080, It does not look silly. It still looks crisp, I'm sat very very close to it and its fine.
