I have two ASUS laptops with different branded cores and I'm looking to draw a comparison between the two and decide which would be better suited for my purposes of university, movies and gaming.

Ok, if gaming is a core function you need, then the only choice is the i7, as it ships with a video card meant for gaming,
"There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there always has been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.'" -- Isaac Asimov

I would go with the i7 since it has a better video card. The hard drive is smaller but you can use external drives if needed.
Windows 8 is a useless OS that Microsoft released that has many flaws and bugs. DO NOT USE IT. Use Windows XP or Windows 7.
