How to mount a flat panel tv in my bedroom?

My walls are thin plywood, and standard mounts feel like they would pull out. What is the best way to reinforce my wall so that I can mount a 50 inch flat panel tv, probably weighing 75 pounds.

Surprisingly, drywall would hold that weight with a few good anchors, but since that’s not what we’re talking about, you’ll need to find the studs in the wall. Sink some good size screws into those and mount from there.
