A 135/150 inch TV is impractical in all ways thinkable. Unless display technology improves to give us a 1-2 mm thick panel, it is not movable once setup. You can't take it outside on a fun day for that back yard party or make it the pillion rider on your motorcycle for that get together at your friend's place.
A 150 inch TV if setup on the wall, adds a lot of load on the wall studs/joists, and even more so when you have subwoofers shaking your room. Setting up such a huge TV properly, without structural damage in the long run can be expensive.
If the TV ever needs repair, you have to invite the technician into the comfort of your theater room, and 2 more people to take it off the wall When TV dies one day, you will have to pay to get it off your wall and out of your home.
A DLP projector from a reputed manufacturer almost always fails from a dying bulb, color wheel, a fan and or thermal sensor-all three can be easily replaced by an average DIYer. Been there, done that, so I know what I am talking about. Good luck troubleshooting your 150 inch TV, as the number of components are much more, movability and disassembly are much harder.
When I feel like going to the theater, I buy the 4K disc off of amazon for $20 (unlimited watch for the whole family), make our own pop corn and sink into our recliners. Think not missing theater visits, when you still have that 98 inch TV. In last 3 years, the only movie I watched at a theater is avatar, way of the water for the IMAX and bigger screen experience, thanks to my DIY home setup.
Andrew Robinson and many other A/V enthusiasts might think otherwise, but once you've used a projector it is only practical to assume that projectors are here to stay.
You clearly have no idea what you are talking about. This is known by everyone in the industry that this is the projector to beat under $5000
Multiple independent shoot outs, nearly every publication documents this.

I've had mine for about 6.5 years. Still on first bulb despite it past the expected bulb life. It messed up on me because of power supply issues at first, but Epson replaced quickly.
I sure do love it for movies especially. My friends often comment on the visual quality.
Video games I'd rather play on a 32" gaming monitor.

Andrew Robinson and many other A/V enthusiasts might think otherwise, but once you've used a projector it is only practical to assume that projectors are here to stay.For reference I also have a 74" OLED for daytime. That said, even when panels can get to my current 120" screen I doubt I will be keen on it. A projector can imitate film 10x better than a panel, if that's your thing. I feel like I'm at the theater using the screen. Plus it dissappears when I don;t need it into the ceiling. I'm not sure I;d be to crazy about a 120" panel always on the wall.
And yeah, gaming. I game at my desk but my sone sometimes console games on the screen. The PS5 version of Spiderman 2 was ridiculous.
