Hang it from rails on the ceiling, with a garage door motor to bring it closer to the seating area for serious viewing. Otherwise, at 20 feet you might as well be watching standard definition. According to the chart below, you'd need more like 65 to 70" to appreciate 720p at 20 feet; for 1080p, 100".

I think it would make more sense to install an above-ground-ool (heated for the winter of course) in the room and use a floating chair to paddle to whatever distance he desires at the time. You might find a good used one on Craig's List.
You noticed that there is no p in the pool above and that's the way we'd like to keep it.
It's a hell of a lot cheaper and easier if you sit in chairs, and it achieves the same result.
Move the seating back when you're finished.
