We were nailed with Zack Snyder's Justice League and Godzilla vs. Kong within, like, two weeks of each other. Mortal Kombat, The Conjuring 3: The Devil Made Me Do It, Space Jam: A New Legacy, and The Suicide Squad 2 are all on their way over the next few months. Our little hearts can barely handle the rumors about a director's cut of Avengers: Endgame.

Against all odds, 2021 is an iconic year for highly-awaited film releases. And so many big, badass movies can only be properly experienced on a big, badass screen. If you've been contemplating a TV upgrade, this weekend's looking like prime time — there are more 65, 75, and 80-plus inch TVs on sale than we've seen in a while.

Samsung

OUR TOP PICK: Samsung 75-inch Q60T QLED 4K UHD Smart TV (QN75Q60TAFXZA) — $1,299.99 (save $400)

Leftovers from Samsung's Discover Spring Event last week are lurking in every corner. Anyone looking to upgrade from their four-year-old bottom-tier 4K to QLED can do so without breaking the bank. This particular discount bring's Samsung's entry-level QLED (75 inches, no less) down to just over $1,000.

LG

OUR TOP PICK: LG 86-inch NanoCell 90 Series 4K UHD Smart TV (86NANO90UNA) — $2,199.99 (save $500)

It's not rare to see discounts on the NanoCell line, but it is rare for those discounts to top $100 off. Since 2017, LG's NanoCell TVs have been a solid choice that we keep coming back to. The technology builds on LCD and LED by deploying particles to soak up light and boost color saturation, while still staying out of the QLED price range. This one stretches that beautiful upscaled quality across 75 inches — so if you're still viewing on a 55-inch, the price to size up ain't half bad.

Sony

OUR TOP PICK: Sony 75-inch X750H Series 4K UHD Smart TV (KD75X750H) — $898 (save $401.99)

The X750H kicks off Sony's stellar mid-range line of 4K TVs. Going with a bigger display like this one could help mitigate its shallow viewing angles — compared to its pricier siblings, at least. However, it is armed with the same processor and 4K X-Reality PRO database as the X800H and X900H, using an algorithm to upscale all content to as-close-to-4K as possible. Sony's Triluminous display seals the deal.

Hisense, Vizio, and more

OUR TOP PICK: TCL 65-inch 6 Series 4K QLED Smart TV (65R635) — $948 (save $351.99)

Realistically, a 65-inch QLED TV for less than $1,000 seals the deal without requiring explanation. But TCL's 6-Series deserves a shout-out for packing such high quality into such a bargain. Bright colors, sizzling HDR, and Dolby Vision to create powerful imagery that was once reserved for pricier big brands. It's a reliable content upscaler that makes for a great baby's first QLED TV.
