Projector recommendations for 'small movie theatre'?

[Will B Good]

Looking to set up a movie night, Fridays and Saturdays, to draw in the locals.

 

The venue is outside, but covered, it should be quite dark, there are no street lights. Back wall to screen will be about 8m, but I guess the projector can go anywhere.

 

I've looked on Lazada, but there are about a million projectors from which to choose and the price range is phenomenal......... I now have analysis paralysis.

 

Can anyone who has gone down this route of projection rather than TV's, suggest what might be a good/decent/reasonable buy (or what to avoid like the plague?).

 

Thanks in advance.

use Bing AI copilot and ask and you'll get a list, then you can read the reviews on them. unless you have access to movies and an extremely high quality projector with the ability to stream from the internet a large screen TV would be the better route to go.

WOW!!!

 

Just been sitting here looking at our living room TV (75" I think?)......which we never use....and thought......why not use that?

 

Pure genius.
