My advice is to download smc fan control 2, and configure the fans from your mac. mine's are set at 2000rpm during battery and 4000rpm during power cable, and that give's me about 30-45º temperature watching 720p for a long time and usually no more than 60º during 1080p playback. you can also create your own profiles and speed up the fans as you need. I found out that i cannot run my laptop without this program
I second downloading SMC Fan Control 2. One of the best apps for any macbook user, hands down.
