Sweet. Have you considered painting / treating the wall. A really good black paint around your desired screen size will give you killer contrast. 

Something like this. https://culturehustle.com/products/black-3-0-the-worlds-blackest-black-acrylic-paint-150ml

I'll post my ''last gen'' set up in a day or so. Plan on getting an LG GX55 in the new year / February to go with my XX which I hope to get by Jan / Feb. 

I've been on the fence on what to do.  I watch movies in 3 different formats (aspect ratios), and I also go to a smaller projection when doing 3D movies.  I was only looking at repainting the white to a flatter white for less reflection.  I wish I could have 4 separate pull-down screens, or 1 large one with curtains on a mechanical set up to change widths and heights.  

Its definitely worth doing some form of masking. I do that so I can watch the two main aspect ration (.85 and .35 and its variants). The results are worth it. 4:3 movies are a bitch to mask though, I never bother with it anymore. Where the aspect ratio allows it, I watch movies on a 124'' 2.35.1 screen (which is the equivalent of watching a movie on a 136'' TV with black bars)and play SP games on a 112'' screen. 

My gaming selection is so small now I lumped it with my anime, which is also smaller than it used to be. 

I decided to go "digital" in 2017 and sold 50+ 360 games and a dozen or so XO games but as 2018 started I fell out of touch with gaming so hardly got any of my favorite titles digitally. Now a good 80% of my 30 or so digital games are through GP/GWG. 

I do miss my 360 collection though. I always liked the way the covers looked.

I doubt the XX will change much of my gaming habits now but I am looking forward to getting one. I do mostly game on a 40'' TV which I am looking to upgrade to a 55 OLED. But I have played through dozens of games on my 112'' screen.
