Hi,

Any recommendations for a good 24" (or 27") monitor for watching movies? I don't care about many things- like really dark blacks or 100% color accuracy- I just want something I can see movies on instead of my 15" macbook pro. I also don't want the monitor to color everything blue or green - but that's all, really.

I saw some people suggest the p2770hd 27" monitor, but I've read some questionable reviews of it. Does anyone actually own this (and would a 24" monitor be better)? Other than that, I'm very open to suggestions!

Thanks
 
Also (really quick) some of you might say that I should look around before asking, but I have! The problem is most threads are for gaming or photo/video editing and I'm not sure how they compare. For example, the average gamer doesn't care about viewing angle -but this is pretty important for movie watching. And photo/video editing requires a fidelity that I just won't really need. Thanks again!
