Hi, I'm new, but I thought I'd give some advice for this. I'm no expert by any means, but from years of experimenting and seeing other people's pads, I think I have some good ideas as to what impresses some girls.

Blue is very boyish. Especially sky blue. I'd recommend you'd try and stick to a red, white and black theme. Red especially since it's a very sexy, erotic colour. Red is also the colour that has been scientifically shown to enhance and stimulate sexual arousal. Look up red's effects on the human brain. For the walls, you could simply stick to white... if you feel the need to paint the walls, go for a maroon colour. It's sophisticated and classy.... not to mention it will match well with red and dark coloured furniture.

No offense, but I would avoid that. This is hard to pull off and it comes off tacky most of the time. Relaxing noises should come from your stereo.

This depends, it usually won't make or break the room anyway... so it doesn't really matter. Just stock a few of the classic movies like "The Godfather", maybe some educational movies stuff like "Planet Earth". Books are pretty much the same. It should be a reflection of you or your taste... maybe one or two odd ball books for conversation.

Again, boyish... I would avoid posters. Go for some art... or at least frame the posters. If you choose art, it should be a reflection of the theme of the room... doesn't have to be pricey art.

I find this to be expensive... if you can find this cheap or do it yourself then I guess... but it's probably unnecessary and excessive.

Best idea you have. One directly in front of the bed, if it works, is great too.

Lots of pillows. If you go for a red, white, black theme, the pillows should be the same. A few red throw pillows, a few black. I would say about 5-8 throw pillows on the bed alone. Red sheets, red comforter, also to keep with the theme.
I recommend having a hardwood floor with a lot of nice rugs... red rugs. Carpets get dirty, retain odours, etc. Rugs are lower maintenance and allow more variety.

I also recommend a lot of mood lighting. You can find these cheap at places like Ikea. Ideally, some nice red mood lights work well. Especially lights that you can dim.
Some plants too. Even if it's just a few. It doesn't need to be a jungle in there, but a few nice plants really change the atmosphere of a room.
A small liquor cabinet/shelf wouldn't hurt... not too much or you'll look like an alcoholic. Maybe a small stash with an ice bucket when needed.
Try to hide any loose wires/cables strewn around. Keep the room tidy/clean. Don't put video games in the room either.
Obviously candles and incense as others have mentioned go a long way.
