please dont do it before the show starts if the manager propose it, you're gonna get lotsa boos and jeers. cant help you on pricing but help you out on timing, first hand experience a couple did it before the show starts, and viola~~

plan to turn it on after movie la, i still wish to enjoy the movie since i pay d, hahaha

haha damn that must totally suck for the couple.

but i suppose public proposals are not really cool unless you are 100% sure she will marry you. i've read a lot of horror stories of the girl being too embarassed that they broke up immediately after failed proposal.

not quite a wise choice unless your soon to be waifu is somekind of ppl which are wishing on a dreamland/romantic/fairy tale proposing method.

which might backfire if you are not 100% confident she will not reject.

public proposals aint romantic la. embarassing got la. 2 ppl want to get married but must let ppl u dont even know know abt it. ffs.

put it like this, choose a movie that soon going to take down, how many ppl will be in the cinema to watch?? plus friends and family will be in the cinema to watch... so not sure if this will backfire... thats why come here see how the public react

our reaction is, please dont. If this happen to me as audience, i will make complaint to cinema management as i have make purchase for the tickets and what makes me have to sit there to watching your drama of proposing as witness? Agree with others, i will just Boooo

better use tat money on an island proposal, less ppl more privacy. i know a fella who got his @ss dumped after he pulled that in a local cinema

http://hype.my/events/starlight-cinema-thr...ies-a-proposal/

Had an acquintance who got proposed there. I wasn't there but another friend told me it was super awkward. Good luck in your preparation.

so far all negative, Kan chiong d...

Depends on your girl. Some like public fairy tale let's first take a selfie kind of proposal, while some prefer a quiet and private romantic getaway.

how much confidence u have that she will say yes?

What if she says no? Public humiliation 101 plus it's not romantic. All girls want to be swept off their feet during their proposal.

Good luck with that. I know I wouldn't want it.

1. invite all friends and relatives for the movie and proposal
2. purposely late for the movie with you girl and enter the show last
3. go toilet (actually preparing to go on stage)in the middle of the show/ after the show, screen your diy movie, and speak out your proposal at the end of the diy movie
4. lights up and all friends and relative cheerz on
5. balik rumah eat popcorn...after footing the bill...

Agreed. Booked the whole cinema for friends and relatives only..
FInd the smallest room cinema
If there is 200 seat means RM18x200 = RM3600.
Maybe they kasi offer RM3k ke...

thats the plan initially then i calculate is it possible to run the cost down by giong to movie that's unlikely anyone want to watch anymore and go with those point you mentioned.

malaysian local artiste did it recently. quite ok.

save the money and propose at paris should kena

Not worth the money lahh. Plus, there are many risks involved. Let me list down a few.

1. You might get boos and jeers from unsporting audiences for "hijacking" their movie.
2. If your girlfie is not those kind of gal who like surprises, she might get overwhelmed by the occasion and reject your proposal, leaving you more embarrassed than ever.
3. Unless you are half as handsome as David Beckham, showing your faceprob face on the big screen will invite laughter from the audiences, which will ultimately spoil the mood.
4. Cost of the whole project. Do I still need to say more? Better save it for a romantic dinner and do your proposal there. You can discuss with the restaurant manager/person-in-charge and see if they can arrange something special for you.

Don't do public proposals, seriously. No one's going to be impressed, you are celebrating a momentous day in your life with a bunch of strangers like me who don't really care and you are ruining other people's night out with this type of gesture.

Find out what sort of proposal your girlfriend wants, I did mine with a few of our closest friends and the next couple outright said she will not do something similar, so my friend smartly did his proposal in private.

3 points hit me straight...


ok la, if like that look for the smallest cinema, maybe just 20 to 30 ppl. book it!

The only one I remember looked nice was one that the person booked the entire cinema (maybe you can ask for the time where there is least amount of people going, so they are much more willing to rent out to you cheaper?), he played a own movie he made with puppets and then he proposed, when the lights went up, she noticed it was filled with their family and friends. That is also after he knew she will accept and had no issue with it just not too public.

I'll try to find the clip if I can and if you want..

maybe you wont want create a scene and fast fast agree leh? job accomplished then..

Why you know me so well ah?

Still dowan la. I hate the guy for the rest of my life later lol

Hey TS. You can always give TGV a call.
http://tgv.com.my/about-tgv/contact-us.html

As you can see, the risks are too much for you, right?

As mentioned by fuzzy, nobody is going to be impressed cuz it is really none of their business. At the end of the day, you will just make a fool out of yourselves.

if 2 3 years ok la, you can hate him, but if for 7 8 years will you be ok?

bopian then, it seems like if this is the reaction from the public group then better I look for smallest cinema room like MBO and see if can rent in cheaper price not... headache.

Bro why lahh you die die nak buat kat cinema? Why wanna make a private event so publicised? You also not a celebrity. If celebrity then different case lohh, cuz they want publicity.

caused me and my buddy all work on shooting the short film leh, now if no used then waste their effort. even though is a noob film but still effort. unless you guys have any idea on putting that short film out?

better use the money organize surprise proposal party with close friends rather than with a bunch of strangers in the cinema

What talk you? My ex of 7 years then proposed to me few years ago in front of some friends and strangers also I reject. No like public proposal.

What if she rejects your proposal?

You will face shame in front of a large audience. No laugh track ooo.

You can telecast your short film during the wedding dinner. Find a restaurant with a projector and make an announcement before you show the video. Do not serve any food during the video. Otherwise guests would be busy eating rather than watching.

Munkey why you so cruel? Wh you rejected him?

Try those cinema that's not in popular mall, places where the cinema have low booking. You might get better price for privately booked room.

But before doing that, you must first check that your other half won't be embarassed by this public proposal.

Not everyone can take these kind of 'highlights'. So, must do homework first !

And better if you only get really close friends of both to join in the occassion.

thats.... really speechless, are you still with him then?

well, everything should be on track, but interms of public atmosphere i dont deny the posibillity of back fire.

can consider, initial thought to make the short film to very Yeng type in the end produce comedy... so this can think about

oh yeah, my buddy no problem, will get her jimui too.

another +1 for "don't do it bro" as the risks/failure rate vs success is too high.

If you can stomach (horrible horrible) failure, then go for it. Otherwise play safe.

Cause we were still too young, and there were tons of issues with the relationship, which just got even worse over the next 3 years from then. I'm just glad that it's all finally over and done with now.

Nope. Keyword: ex.

Worst cast scenario is if she does rejects, your epic video (likely to be capture by some audience) will be on youtube for the world to see.



Not being a party pooper but really think this carefully.

Despite all the risks, if your gf is a person who likes attention, or don't mind being the centre of attention, she might like your way of proposal. Its crucial to know what your gf wants. People will tell you: "no don't do this", but it's your proposal, and she is your gf. If you are sure she will like it, go on. But like other forummers said, find out whether your gf is really ready for marriage.

well dont expect ppl to stop and cheer for you because everyone will be busy rushing for the exit

kalau time tue aq tgh tgk kat cinema...mmg aq sumbat kerusi kat kaw...

dont la

u wanna marry piap piap u go piap piap 2 of u

don disturb ONE WHOLE CINEMA worth of ppl

No expectation.


, was going to do in the end of the movie, u can go out if u dont like.

haiz, different level leh, piap piap and road to marriage is totally diferent...

Just to update here, i did it with the plan, booked the whole hall and go with plan, going to edit the video and post out soon. By then if anyone in future would like to give this a try can PM me as i have all the info

simpan ur duit for the real marriage la...
membazir to give surprise buat apa......

go to beach side and propose la, candle light dinner beside beach then propose la, not in movie theater.

Propose in public ONLY if it cost strangers nothing. if strangers have to be inconvinienced by the scene /crowd , then better think twice.

marriage is between 2 parties. A public proposal is not encouraged same like how the first kiss or first sex should not be done in public.

can't view. pm link

How much does it cost to booked a whole hall and which cinema did you booked, ts?

It very much depends on big or small hall you go for, there's no special discount or whatsoever, you want the hall, you buy all the ticket, thats how they do it.

I booked at TGV 1 u

im going to cinema to watch movie not to watch ppl attention whore proposal, k thanks bye

I see. So even if the seats will remain empty, they still charge you normal adult price ticket for them, guess small hall is better then. Thank you for the info, ts

booked the whole hall for private event so no chance you will be there.

bagus then
