I am thinking about getting a 32 inch LCD for my bedroom, and I was wondering if 120Hz is a big step up from 60Hz in this size of TV? Also, I will be using it to play my PS3 and Blu-Ray movies on it.

I would get a bigger LCD before I spent more for 120Hz... Hz = per second... So that 's 120 refreshes per second, which I can't see being useful for anything but stereoscopic 3d gaming in the near future... So unless you're planning on doing some 3D PC gaming, go with a bigger 1080p LCD instead...

Well like I said, it's for my bedroom, and it's not very big, so a 32" I think we do just fine.

There is a huge visual difference between 60 and 120hz, defiently go 120

Yes, 120hz is much smoother. Also you'll want a response time of 5ms or less.
