I second the fact that you probably don't need a center channel. Look for a used or old stock 5.1 receiver (Marantz, Denon or Sony) and a decent subwoofer. I don't know what your current room is like and how you would wire the back speakers but one solution is to do in ceiling speakers. Cambridge Soundworks sells their B-Stock speakers on ebay at a very reasonable price w full warranty's. I don't recommend them for the front speakers but for surround and in wall I think they're a good value.
If you want to go really cheap, just get a 2 channel receiver, 2 front speakers and a sub and you'll be 80% there.

If you want to really get a movie experience, take a look into a projector. You can start by shining it on a wall, then graduate to a screen. Nevertheless, there are good projectors that can be had for reasonable money. Your pioneer elite will get the job done well too.

I'll also post on your other thread about the remote.
