phone to tv help please

Hi so i have a samsung galaxy s3 and my 32gb sd card is full of films (both standard and hd) i want to play on my tv. I have tryed to play though a standard usb data cable but it does not work.

Im not tech savvy so if you could explain what i need or link me to where i can buy the right cable that would be awsome. My tv is a 42" lg if that helpd.

Thanks in advance

    You need a Samsung GS3 MHL adapter and a HDMI cable. This provides HDMI connectivity from the phone to the TV so you play the file on the phone and it appears on TV.

    Watch this video on Samsung GS3 connectivity which makes it all clear. I've skipped the part about connecting PS3/Xbox 360 controllers: http://youtu.be/46IiRyigUH0?t=14m20s
