Gemini Man? personally, I can't see the fascination with that film, more so with it's relevance to your TV. I'd say there are great films which are visual marvels that you can rewatch your tv with. the Dark Knight for example or LOTR, Inception, etc... can't wait to watch the upcoming new Batman movie with it. as far as Netflix goes, I'm curious to rewatch the QUEEN's GAMBIT on it.

I'm on the fence on buying a 4K gaming console (PSV or XBOX SX) or buying an RX 6800XT 4k GPU for PC. price is as close as it gets.

Got a headache figuring out logistics for unmounting, moving, mounting two TVs right now. I move tomorrow and my mover who was gonna do all this just cancelled on me SMH.
Currently I have:
55" Samsung 9 Series (on stand)
65" LG E8 (Sanus - Premium Series Advanced Tilt TV Wall Mount)
My plan was to unmount the LG, move both to the new house, mount both in the new house. I have geeksquad coming to do the unmount tomorrow, but they won't move it after that. I'm ok with moving it once it's in the box but I'm moving literally two blocks away and they can't remount for another week. Makes no sense.
So I called this hellotech place that comes up in google when you search geeksquad. Tried to see if they could do it all at once. They say their prices are better than geeksquad which is a lie. Every quote they gave me was more than geeksquad.
They quoted me like $400+ to unmount one TV, then remount two TV. Just a waste of time on the phone with them.
So I guess I'm just going to move my TVs for now and not even use them until I figure out my set up. I guess it will be good to get all the furniture in first any way but damn, moving these TVs is annoying.

$400? might as well learn how to unmount your tv. I believe it can be done within half an hour. with the proper tools.

Taskrabbit. Search mounting.

Didn't even think about Taskrabbit. I will check that out.
Replaced the mover that bailed on me with a different company and they said no problem to dismount and move the TVs with the rest of my stuff. So now I don't have to pay geeksquad for the dismount and just have to worry about putting them back up eventually.
The time it would take me to learn how to unmount/mount the TV would actually cost me more $ than just paying someone to do it. And my partner helping would be my girl and that is just a fight waiting to happen, or a broken TV because she's clumsy lol. Need someone who knows what they doing.
Still, the prices are OD. I have 5 year geeksquad protection on the E8 that was $730. Moving the TV should be included with that.

Hisense if the $50 isn't a big deal

Both seem pretty reliable
. Hisense scores are a bit better across the board but I don't think you can go wrong with either
If this is for next-gen gaming you'll probably get similar performances

Guys, as much as I love the thing, I REALLY need to upgrade from my 2012 1080p Panasonic plasma now that I have a Series X. I'm looing to spend around $600-$700 and am seriously considering a Costco purchase as they have 5 year warranties for members. I've narrowed down my search to these two deals-would you guys recommend or do you have other options? (not necessarily from Costco)
Sony 65" Class - X75CH Series - 4K UHD LED LCD TV (4k 60htz):
LG 65" Class - UN8500 Series - 4K UHD LED LCD TV (4k native 120htz w./ HDMI 2.1):
Any/all help would be appreciated!

between the two, I'd go for the LG. higher refresh rate and HDMI 2.1 compatible. given a choice of availability, I'd go for something else better at that price range not because I'm worried about not having a Costco return policy.

Coming from a Penny plasma... I highly recommend you save up more, or sell some shoes, and cop an OLED. Black levels on LCDs will disappoint you more than shifty retros.

I'm waiting until next year to cop a new TV.
There are gonna be a lot more companies bringing out OLEDs now there are two suppliers, and more bringing out MiniLCD. So hopefully there is more downward pressure on prices.

I’ve noticed a trend that when the last 2 gens of game consoles released, you’d see massive drops in TV prices in the following 1-2 years afterwards. Happened after the 2005-2006 gen of consoles dropped and again after the 2013 gen dropped.
