I prefer the A380 seat & bar option but the 777 is perfectly fine. The screens are actually better than the 380 I'd say but I'm sure that could be debated.

I choose to fly the 777 via my home airport in BOS rather than connect to JFK for the A380. To me it's not worth the 3-4 hours of connecting.
They get new J occasionally (just looked a historical regs) unlike BOS, ORD and DFW which you are very likely to get the new J
