Picture this: your family and friends gathered under the stars, watching their favorite movie on a giant screen in your own backyard. No driving to crowded theaters, no overpriced snacks, no rushing to make showtimes. Just pure entertainment in the comfort of your own space.
Our inflatable movie screens transform ordinary backyards into extraordinary entertainment venues. Kids sprawl out on blankets while adults relax in lawn chairs, everyone sharing popcorn and creating the kind of memories that get talked about for years. It’s the magic of drive-in theaters combined with the convenience of home.
Whether you’re planning a birthday party, family reunion, or neighborhood gathering, an outdoor movie night brings people together in ways that indoor entertainment simply can’t match. The experience becomes about more than just watching a film – it’s about connection, laughter, and those perfect summer evenings that make Long Island living special.
The Big Bounce Theory has been creating unforgettable moments across Long Island since 2007. As a family-owned company based in Bohemia, we understand what makes events special for local families and organizations.
We’ve seen firsthand how Islip residents value community connections and quality family time. That’s why our inflatable movie screen rentals come complete with everything needed for a seamless experience – from the sealed-air screen that inflates quietly in minutes to the professional attendant who ensures everything runs perfectly.
Fully licensed and insured, we serve Nassau County, Suffolk County, the Hamptons, and Montauk with the same commitment to safety and customer satisfaction that has made us a trusted name in Long Island entertainment for over 17 years.
The process couldn’t be easier. You choose your date and provide the movie – we handle absolutely everything else from start to finish.
Our professional delivery team arrives at your location with the complete setup: the inflatable movie screen, HD audio/video system, deluxe popcorn machine, and all necessary equipment. The sealed-air screen inflates quickly and quietly, requiring no running blowers during your event. A trained attendant stays on-site to manage the technical aspects, so you can focus entirely on enjoying time with your guests.
When the movie ends, our team handles all breakdown and removal. You’re left with nothing but great memories and probably requests from friends asking when you’re hosting the next movie night. It’s professional entertainment made simple, designed specifically for busy Long Island families who want maximum impact with minimal effort.

Your inflatable movie screen rental comes as a complete entertainment package designed for Long Island’s outdoor conditions. The sealed-air screen technology means quiet operation without constant blower noise, perfect for residential neighborhoods in Islip where you want to maintain good relationships with neighbors.
The HD audio/video system delivers crystal-clear picture and sound quality that rivals traditional movie theaters. Multiple screen sizes accommodate different group sizes, from intimate family gatherings to large community events with up to 500 guests. The included deluxe popcorn machine adds that authentic movie theater atmosphere that makes the experience complete.
Given Islip’s location on the Great South Bay, weather can be unpredictable, but our professional-grade equipment is designed to handle Long Island’s coastal conditions. Our trained attendant monitors weather and equipment throughout your event, making real-time adjustments to ensure optimal viewing quality regardless of wind or other environmental factors.
Space requirements depend on your chosen screen size and guest count, but most Islip backyards can accommodate our setups comfortably. For our standard screens, you’ll need a relatively flat area approximately 25 feet wide by 20 feet deep for the screen itself, plus additional space for guest seating.
Our professional attendant conducts a site assessment during booking to ensure your space works perfectly. We consider factors like power access, ground conditions, and optimal viewing angles. Many Long Island homes have ideal setups near patios or pool areas where guests can spread out comfortably.
If space is tight, don’t worry – we offer multiple screen sizes and can work with compact areas. The key is having enough room for safe setup and comfortable viewing distances, which our experienced team evaluates on a case-by-case basis.
Our professional attendant continuously monitors weather conditions and has protocols for various scenarios. Light wind isn’t typically problematic since the sealed-air screens are designed for outdoor use and don’t require constant blowers that might be affected by breezes.
For more significant weather concerns, our attendant can make real-time decisions about continuing, pausing, or rescheduling your event. Our equipment is weather-resistant, but safety always comes first. If conditions become unsuitable before the event begins, rescheduling options are available.
Given Long Island’s coastal location, we’ve developed extensive experience handling various weather conditions. Our team comes prepared with backup plans and will communicate clearly with you about any necessary adjustments to ensure both safety and enjoyment.
You provide the movie while we supply everything else needed for the complete cinema experience. This arrangement gives you total control over content selection, ensuring the movie is perfect for your specific audience and event type.
Our HD audio/video system accommodates various formats and sources, from streaming services to physical media. Our professional attendant helps coordinate the technical connection and ensures optimal playback quality. We can also provide guidance on movie selection if you’re unsure what works best for outdoor viewing.
This approach means you can choose age-appropriate content for family events, select crowd-pleasers for community gatherings, or pick themed movies that match your party’s style. You know your guests best, so you make the content decisions while we handle the technical execution.
Booking at least 2-3 weeks in advance is recommended, especially during peak season from late spring through early fall when outdoor movie nights are most popular across Long Island. Summer weekends fill up quickly since many Islip families host graduation parties, birthday celebrations, and community events.
Earlier booking also allows time for proper planning and site assessment. Our team can visit your property ahead of time to identify the optimal setup location and address any potential challenges. This advance planning ensures everything runs smoothly on event day.
However, we understand that sometimes great ideas come with short notice. If you have a last-minute need, it’s worth calling to check availability. Our local Long Island location means we can often accommodate requests with shorter lead times, especially for weekday events or off-peak seasons.
The rental includes everything needed for a complete outdoor cinema experience: the inflatable movie screen, HD audio/video system, deluxe popcorn machine, professional delivery and setup, on-site attendant throughout your event, and complete breakdown and removal afterward.
The sealed-air screen technology means no noisy blowers running during your movie, and our professional-grade equipment ensures theater-quality picture and sound. The included attendant handles all technical aspects, troubleshooting, and equipment monitoring so you can focus entirely on enjoying time with your guests.
Additional services like themed decorations, extra concession machines, or extended rental periods are available for an additional cost. The base package is designed to provide everything most events need, with options to customize based on your specific vision and budget.
Absolutely! Our HD audio/video system works perfectly for sporting events, video game tournaments, presentations, or any content you want to display on a large screen. Many Islip residents use them for Super Bowl parties, playoff games, or family video presentations during reunions and celebrations.
The same professional setup and attendant support applies regardless of content type. Whether you’re hosting a neighborhood watch party for a big game or displaying a slideshow during a milestone birthday celebration, our equipment delivers the same high-quality experience.
This versatility makes the rental valuable for various occasions throughout the year. The large screen format creates an engaging experience that brings people together, whether they’re cheering for their favorite team or watching family memories unfold under the stars.
