Touted as the greatest marriage proposal ever, after watching the trailer for 'Making the Movies Jealous,' I think I have to agree. At the very least, this is probably the most thoughtful marriage proposal with the most effort behind it. Considering all the [amazing proposals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/love-on-the-ledge) that have popped up on the Internet over the years, that is saying a lot.

Directed by Michael Escobar, the Making the Movies Jealous marriage proposal/[movie trailer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinematic-travel-campaign) stars the now engaged Matt and Ginny. It shows a confident Matt asking Ginny's father for permission to marry her on the big screen as Ginny watches in disbelief from the audience, which was made up of friends, family and 100 strangers.

Of course, once Matt breathlessly rushed into the theater after the Making the Movies Jealous trailer played, she said yes.
