The Big Bounce Theory has been creating unforgettable entertainment experiences across Nassau and Suffolk counties for over 17 years. We’re the family-owned company that Wantagh residents trust when they want their events done right.
We understand Long Island families. You work hard, your time is valuable, and when you host an event, you want to actually enjoy it instead of stressing over logistics. That’s why we handle every detail from delivery to breakdown.

Ready to get started?
Your inflatable movie screen rental comes complete with professional-grade equipment that delivers theater-quality results. The HD audio/video system ensures crisp picture and clear sound that reaches every guest comfortably.
Nassau County’s evening temperatures create perfect outdoor movie conditions from spring through fall. Our equipment works flawlessly in Long Island’s climate, and our experienced team knows how to optimize setup for Wantagh’s typical backyard configurations.
Each rental includes the inflatable screen of your choice, commercial-grade projector, premium sound system, deluxe popcorn machine with supplies, and a professional attendant who manages everything. You simply provide the movie and we handle the rest – from setup to breakdown, your only job is enjoying the show with your guests.
Screen size depends on your guest count and viewing distance. Our smallest screen works perfectly for intimate gatherings of 20-50 people in typical Wantagh backyards, while our largest accommodates up to 500 guests for community events or large family gatherings.
The key is ensuring everyone has a clear view from their seating area. Our team evaluates your space during booking to recommend the optimal size. Most Nassau County residential properties work well with our medium screen, which provides excellent visibility for 75-150 guests while fitting comfortably in standard suburban yards.
We also consider factors like your home’s layout, existing landscaping, and where guests will be positioned. Our 17 years of Long Island experience means we know exactly what works in local settings and can guide you to the perfect choice for your specific event.
Movies should start at dusk for the best viewing experience. Even our high-powered projectors can’t compete with daylight, so timing is crucial for picture quality. In Nassau County, this typically means starting between 7:30-8:30 PM depending on the season.
We recommend planning your event timeline around sunset rather than a specific clock time. Spring and fall events can start earlier, while summer movies need to wait for darker skies. Our professional attendant arrives well before sunset to complete setup and test all equipment.
This timing actually works perfectly for most Wantagh families. It gives you time for dinner, socializing, and getting everyone settled before the main event begins. Kids stay engaged, adults can enjoy the social aspect, and everyone’s ready when that first scene lights up the screen under the stars.
Long Island weather can be unpredictable, but we’ve got you covered with flexible rescheduling options. If rain or severe weather threatens your event, we work with you to find an alternative date that works for everyone.
Our equipment is designed to handle typical outdoor conditions, including light wind and humidity that’s common in Nassau County. However, we prioritize safety and won’t operate during thunderstorms, heavy rain, or high winds that could pose risks to guests or equipment.
The key is staying in communication as your event approaches. We monitor weather forecasts closely and reach out proactively if conditions look problematic. Most Wantagh families find that having backup dates in mind makes rescheduling stress-free, and many discover their rescheduled event turns out even better than originally planned.
Our system connects to laptops, streaming devices, gaming consoles, and traditional DVD/Blu-ray players. You can absolutely stream Netflix, Disney+, or any other service directly to our inflatable movie screen. Many Nassau County families love this flexibility for accessing the latest releases or kids’ favorites.
The main requirement is reliable internet connectivity in your outdoor space. Most Wantagh homes have strong WiFi that reaches their backyards, but we recommend testing your signal strength beforehand. If needed, a WiFi extender usually solves any connectivity issues.
We can also display live sports events, video games, or even slideshow presentations for special occasions. Our professional attendant handles all the technical connections and ensures everything runs smoothly. Whether you’re streaming the latest blockbuster or showing family vacation videos, our HD projection system delivers crystal-clear results that everyone can enjoy.
Most Wantagh backyards have plenty of space for our inflatable movie screen setup. We typically need a flat area about 25 feet wide by 15 feet deep for the screen itself, plus additional space for guest seating and our projection equipment.
The total footprint varies by screen size, but our team evaluates your specific property during booking to ensure everything fits comfortably. We consider obstacles like pools, gardens, fences, and existing structures to create an optimal layout that maximizes viewing for all guests.
Nassau County’s suburban lots generally provide excellent flexibility for positioning. We can often work around existing features like decks, patios, or landscaping to create the perfect outdoor cinema setup. Our 17 years of local experience means we’ve successfully set up in virtually every type of Long Island backyard configuration you can imagine.
Every inflatable movie screen rental includes our deluxe popcorn machine with enough supplies to serve your entire guest list. We provide the kernels, oil, salt, and serving containers – you don’t need to purchase anything additional.
The machine produces fresh, hot, buttery popcorn throughout your event. It’s not just a novelty; it’s commercial-grade equipment that delivers that authentic movie theater taste and aroma that makes outdoor cinema complete. Most Wantagh families are amazed by the quality and quantity it produces.
Our professional attendant operates the popcorn machine, so you don’t need to worry about timing, refills, or cleanup. We keep fresh batches coming as needed and handle all the details. It’s one of those touches that elevates your backyard movie night from good to absolutely memorable for everyone who attends.
