Projecting a VCR signal onto a 100" screen will make you vomit, depending on how close you are to the image.

Stereo out in DVD players are still much better than VCR's output. You just have to make sure when you are watching DVDs, select Dolby 2ch instead of 5.1, this way, the surround and low freq information are not downmixed improperly or tossed out completely.

As for center channel, you could get a accoustically transparent/micro-perforated screen, this way, you could place then center channel behind the screen and still have the sound come through. Or you could place the center speaker below the screen, depending on how low the screen goes down to.
