Yep, the decision to change the invaders from Chinese to North Koreans was ridiculous. Just how many movie tickets did they sell in China to warrant this change? That said, the original Red Dawn was terribly cheesy, but pretty...

I have the exact same TV and the exact same flicker when playing back 24p content at 48 Hz. Unfortunately, the best solution (for me) was to switch back to 1080p60. A little bit of judder on the credits was far preferable to annoying...

Walking Dead and Lion King both are excellent. NCIS and Sponge Bob are passable entertainment. The rest of that list is terrible dreck.
