Anybody need a starship pulse cannon?  
Or the next best thing.

My friend [info]smashwolf has put a couple of Really Big digital projectors (one 10,000 lumens, one 6,000 lumens) up for sale on eBay.

One of them is the one used for the famous "Dive-in movies" projected on the side of the DoubleTree San Jose Hotel above the swimming pool at BayCons past.

Check 'em out. They're in great working order, and it's a really good price.

Speaking of which, any chance of Dive In movies at the new place?

I suspect not.

Even if the hotel would allow it, the pool appears to be at one end of the multitower complex, not between the towers. The DT had the advantage of the Roof Garden as a projection point.

Sadness. Well maybe we can talk SiliCon into reviving it.
