To get the most out of a blu-ray player, you should have at least a 46" HDTV with 1080p resolution, and one that will accept 1080p as input as well. Even better is a TV with 120Hz refresh that will accept 1080p 24Hz. This will provide the smoothest motion, since there is no "judder" (irregular motion of moving objects) from "3-2" pulldown.
