So you live in a Hotel huh?  JK

 
No but I have a TV like that!

Here is my 55" LED in my bedroom.
 

 
Here is my 60" Plasma in my Den.
 

My Sony 60"

Wouldn't it be cheaper to buy a pair of glasses instead of those big screens?  I know that americans do have larger screens than the average European has but how large do you want to go? I have a sony KDL-32W5500 32" screen and I must say that it is a great size.. I want the picture to as sharp as possible.. I know my screen isn't LED so I dont know how LED looks at those large screens (50"+) but my guess would be that a large non-LED screen would look awful at that size. My parents have the excact same screen as I have except their screen is the 40" model. Pic-quality is much worse than on my screen.. I think it is a matter of personal preferences.. 

I agree that some screens tend to look ugly when those pixels are stretched. Blu-ray movies look great on my screen. Honestly, after having a 60", I would have a hard time going any smaller. My Brother-in-law has one of those 73" Dlps and it looks fairly good, but I hate DLPs. I am scoping out the new 64" Plasmas Samsung has coming out. For gaming, I think 24"- 27" is the magic number but for movies, as long as the source is good, I need it big.

My 105" Theater ;-) Came with the house. The wire hanging from the ceiling is tucked away now. I ran it for the Wii sensor bar. I play my PS3 on a 40" though...it gets better internet speeds than down in the basement.

 

I will have to take a picture when I get home, however this is the display I am currently most proud of (obviously, since I listed it in my signature even though I rarely drag the box out there to game on it):

It is basically the 58" version of Panasonic's 2010 flagship plasma display model. Every review I could find of TVs that were 55"+ listed this as their top pick for 2010 and Q1 of 2011 (not this size, but the specific model... I would have opted for the 65" version, however I got a killer deal on the 58").
 
I have owned a LOT of high end televisions in my day and this is by FAR the best I've ever owned, beating out my old Kuro plasma.

If I had a basement where I could have zero light, I'd go with a 1080p projector. I'd keep it just under 100" after that you start to notice the poo. At least the ones I have viewed. Since I am not building a basement/ underground man-cave anytime soon, I am waiting for the perfect plasma.

 
See above.

my 60" plasma. cant see all the gaming and surround sound systems vary well... top left is a Samsung HT-C6500 Blu-ray Home Theater System, stop right is a Xbox 360(the Kinect is behind the tv to the left). middle left is the Wii and middle right is the Ps3.. i will take a new pic when the light isn't coming in to the living room

and the 50" Led in the bed room

You guys make me jealous with how rich you are. 
 
I think there was a decision made somewhere along the line, either feeding my kids or having these amazing setups.  

Too bad kids have to eat me out of house and home. haha

That's exactly why I am not having kids! Funny thing is that those projectors and screens cost the same amount as one of those over hyped 55" 3d tvs. The bad part is the cost of the stupid bulbs.
 
On a side note:I did TV reviews for some time and it makes me sick how bad some people are misinformed and sold on gimmicks and size alone. I go into Walmart/Best Buy and listen to people spew out nonsense and then I politely educate anyone that is about to make a bad purchase. I can't help it.

Well, for those of us on here who might be about to make a bad purchase, what should we be looking for?
