Hi,
This year I am going to be conducting my final year university
project. I have chosen to make a device that will control what media
is being played on a computer, like an advanced remote control. The
control will connect to the computer via bluetooth.

Now that you know what I am doing here is my question...
Could anyone recommend which PIC, bluetooth module and LCD display to
use? Also would this project be simple enough to program is ASM or
would it be better to do it in C?

For the LCD, I highly recommend using the Nokia 3210/3310 LCD. You can
get them from handphone spare parts vendors though the cheapest I've
found is Jelu:

$9 each - since they're cheap enough buy 2 or 3 in case you damage
one. The interface is SPI and is well documented. You'll find it used
in lots of hobbyist projects so there's lots of code for it floating
around out there on the web. It's just black & white though but for
your app I think it should do fine.
I have briefly looked on Rapid Electronics for bluetooth modules and
they have this onehttp://www.rapidonline.com/productinfo.aspx?kw=bluetooth&tier1=Electr...
If that link doesn't work go tohttp://www.rapidonline.com/and search
for 43-0426
Is this a good bluetooth module or can you recommend any better ones?
Don't know if it's better but the module from SparkFun looks nice:
