How do you watch your movies? Do you own a 4K + HDR TV? Do you pay attention to encodes? Do you care about HDR? Do you care about 5.1/7.1 sound? What are the best-looking movies? How do you deal with light bleeding and other common issues? Does 8K have a future in home media? Post your collections.
LG 50 inches here. I have some slight light bleed in a corner, but it's only noticeable in really dark scenes (Midnight Mass looked like horseshit). HDR is pretty basic. 4K blu-rays look damn amazing tho.
I refuse to pay any attention to resolution, encoding quality or number of sound channels except with regard to a small file size. The sweet spot is 360p.2pygx

I watch in DVD quality since my eyes are in that quality

But user, you have TWO eyes, which means you see in HD.
I have Samsung something and it's pretty much changed me life as far as my movie-viewing life is concerned. I saw The Batman in theaters and that experience paled in comparison to simply watching any random movie from my streaming apps on the tv with my noise cancelling Sony headphones.
32'' Samsung TV no no no no To the Wonder, 28 Days Later, Julien Donkey-Boy, Inland Empire - no

coming from someone with both, the visual and audio experience is honestly comparable between a real home theater and the VR headset, but the discomfort of a hot box strapped to your face and inability to see your snacks makes the difference for me.

1080p. Anything higher is pointless unless your tv is 70 inch or larger.
