As to movies looking better on a TV than a monitor, I don't see why there should be a difference.

I read somewhere once that DVDs don't look their best on computer monitors because the pixels on a computer are a different shape than those on a TV. I don't know how much truth there is to that, though.

Some of my DVDs look gorgeous on my computer, some don't. The DVDs I record myself don't look good when played on my computer, for some reason- lots of motion artifacts, etc., but look great when played on my TV (I have an old Apple iMac and an early version of Apple DVD player, BTW).
