The Proposal



Don't be scared! I'm not talking about my research thing of proposal this time. It's the recent shown love romance comedy- THE PROPOSAL. Though it'd been showing for quite some time, I only got to watch it yesterday with X'mas. I've heard so many good reviews from others and surprisingly it's really an extraordinary hilarious, romantic love story! *thumbs up*

"The Proposal", starring Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds, a publishing executive (Bullock) forces her assistant (Reynolds) to marry her so she can avoid deportation back to Canada. Ryan Reynolds is damn cutie and he really attracted me in the movie (love him very much!) while Sandra Bullock, I think she's a bit old for Ryan. Nevertheless, she could hold the very feminist character in the movie. I was laughing my heart out throughout the movie (sorry for those people in the cinema), I just couldn't hold myself back from all those hilarious scenes. I love watching how innocent Andrew was when he's being forced to marry Margaret. I love watching Margaret, the cocky one, torturing Andrew and walked with her super high heels. I love to see Margeret was threatened by Andrew to kneel down and propose to him and a lot a lot more!!!

Here are some memorable quotes from the movie:

Margaret Tate: I am not getting in that boat!
Andrew Paxton: Fine, see you in three days.
Margaret Tate: You know I can't swim!
Andrew Paxton: Hence... the *boat*.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________
Andrew Paxton: [referring to the story about how he proposed to Margaret] You know what? Actually, Margaret loves telling this story, so I'm just gonna let her go ahead and do that. We should just sit and rapture.
Margaret Tate: Wow, okay... wow, where to begin... the story... Well, um, wow... Okay, well, um, Andrew and I... Andrew and I were about to celebrate our first anniversary together and I knew that he'd been itching to ask me to marry him and he was scared, like a little tiny bird. So, I started leaving him little hints here and there because I knew he wouldn't have the guts to ask..
Andrew Paxton: That's not exactly how it happened.
Margaret Tate: No?
Andrew Paxton: No, no, I mean I picked up on all of her little hints... this woman is about as subtle as a gun. Yeah, no what I was worried about was that she might find this little box...
Margaret Tate: Oh, the decoupage box that he made, where he'd taken the time to cut out twenty little pictures of himself, just pasted all over the box. So beautiful! I opened that beautiful little decoupage and out fluttered these tiny little hand cut heart confettis and once they cleared, I looked down and I saw the most beautiful, big...
Andrew Paxton: ...fat nothing! No ring.
Grandma Annie: No ring?
Grace Paxton: What?
Andrew Paxton: No, but inside that box, underneath all that crap, a handwritten note with the address to a hotel, date and time. Real Humphrey Bogart type stuff. Masculine. Naturally, Margaret, she thought...
Margaret Tate: I thought he was seeing someone else... so it was a terrible time for me, but I went to that hotel anyway, I went there and I pounded on the door. But the door was already unlocked. As I swung open that door, there he was...
Andrew Paxton: Standing.
Margaret Tate: Kneeling.
Andrew Paxton: Like a man.
Margaret Tate: On a bed of rosebuds, in a tuxedo. Your son. Your son... and he was choking back soft, soft sobs. And when he held back the tears and finally caught his breath, he said to me...
Andrew Paxton: 'Margaret, will you marry me?' and she said 'yep', the end!

Margaret Tate: What am I allergic to?
Andrew Paxton: Pine nuts, and the full spectrum of human emotion.

Andrew Paxton: Margaret, will you marry me? Because I'd like to date you.


Not forget to mention the house of Andrew in Alaska, it's a very traditional western style of home. Me and X'mas so want to live in such place, even just for a week! Yeah, I know we're day-dreaming. Hehe XD
