Gatinha and I got this great idea...
My barn is white... has no windows... would make a possible awesome movie screen! Run a long extension cord... set up a projector... instant outdoor theater! Not now, of course, it's 25 degrees, but when the weather warms up.
I just started searching... but if anyone else has done this... throw me a bone! Any tips?

At least 2000 lumen and you should be good to go. All other Specs are preference.

It would also be awesome for Guitar Hero.

My neighbor did this last summer with a simple laptop, a meeting type projector and a white sheet. worked great! Wait until it gets truly dark for better results. Didn't work well at dusk. He had some problems with the image "keystoning". I think some projectors have settings to correct for keystoning, but he didn't try and the kids didn't care.
