Actually, the lighter color tan walls would be better a darker color, I kinda like the green. Here is my in progress room.

Is the room dedicated? It looks it. If it is, consider putting up a chair rail, and dividing the room into two or three colors (darker color on bottom, like a blue, and a slightly lighter color on top, like a darker Khaki. The wal behind the screen can either be black or some other color, depending on the contrast of your projector and the darkness of the room.

Pick a color scheme that you like with the lights on - they really won't show during the movie anyway, will they?

Captain Pickard suggestion is a good one, but you can do just about anything you want. A deep blue and medium khaki would look fantastic. I really like the bold blue in Sirquaks room.

Most people seem to use red, but I think that's just because commercial theaters seem to use red. Deep burgandy or purple would look good.

I'm one of the usual red folks (see my site below for pics). Whatever you do, I reccomend the black ceiling if you can do it in a flat or eggshell finish. If your wall color is dark enough and you watch movies with the room darkened, you wouldn't need black on the front wall.

Post some pics when you decide and show us how it turns out.

To me it appears he already has a chair rail, it is just painted the same as the lower color on the wall.

Very nice Ty, where did you get the curtains? Are they Black Velvet for soaking up the stray projector light?

Here is a thread with some my in-progress pics.

I really like your new color Eric, the component cabinet looks very sharp with the colors. Nice setup!
