Re: Putting Marriage Proposal Ideas into Action...
I have a great theory about marriage propsal, basically you want to piss the girl off first, I suggest you arrange some wonderful night out at the opera, theatre, whatever requires her to dress nice (stress the importance of this say you have great tickets blah blah), turn up at an empty theatre and say oh [censored] we missed it by a night, she'll be so [censored] pissed off standing there. You pop the trunk tell her to go look for something in it, in their is a ring, will you marry me and either a picket basket or you just hop in the car to another destination which has been pre arranged. Rinse and repeat this for your mistresses as neccesary.

Re: Putting Marriage Proposal Ideas into Action...
LOL, so I just searched for this thread because I thought it would be funny to read again.
Quick update 1 year later: I went with some version of Idea #1. After a movie at the IMAX Theater in NYC, we toured the projectionist booth, and the guy told us to go out to the balcony to watch a coming attraction of a new film. It was just us there because the theater was closed. When the coming attraction came on, it was really a montage of romantic movie moments that then changed to a picture slideshow of us, with the title... "Michelle, Will You Marry Me?" Long story short, she said "yes", and we're now getting married this Sunday. Thanks to everyone who contributed ideas/opinions! |

Also, it's not easy for the projectionist to just add something into the movie like that once it's already built and everything, and then take it off again one showing later. This is kinda asking a lot I think. [/ QUOTE ] If it was the first showing of the day, it'd be cake to pull off. Splice in the strip the night before, you're ready to go the next day. Taking it out afterward wouldn't be too hard either. However, if he needed to do it at the last showing, or one in the middle, that's when it gets almost impossible. Splicing in/taking out previews was my fave part of being a projectionist. Just make sure you get someone to do it that knows how to... Our theatre got bought out once by this arogant arse who, though he wasn't familiar with our equipment, decided to try to make up Godzilla 2k. Very first showing the next day, something goes wrong, and people come out asking what's up. I'd just got there, so I headed up to see what was wrong. I open the door, head up the stairs, turn the corner and see... celluloid as far as the eye can see.. All over the ground. Sweet! [censored] sweet! That wasn't a complete nightmare to clean up. The most experienced projectionist there told me what the boss had done wrong while making it up, but I've since forgot. (this was like 10 years ago) |
