"Its the car I've always wanted and now I have it. I rule!"
American Beauty was nominated for eight Academy Awards, and won five of 'em, includin' Best Picture, Best Director (Sam Mendes), Best Actor (Kevin Spacey) and Best Original Screenplay.
Got a few other ideas for other movies, but this entry doesn't even require animated frames...

Other ideas! Thinkin' of switchin' to Chicago...what do y'all think?
"Ya going to believe what you see, or what I tell ya?"
"They call me....MISTER TIBBS!"
"Well, actually, what I heard was that you fell off your horse, drunk of course, and that you broke your bloody neck."
"I heard that one myself, Bob. Hell, I even thought I was dead 'til I found out it was just that I was in Nebraska."

Chicago #2 or Fish Called Wanda, IMHO
OOPS! I forgot to resize. The fix is in.
Nice one, JiNX. I approve. 
Alright, narrowed down to three...American Beauty, Chicago or A Fish Called Wanda. What do y'all think?
Any except Chicago. That movie is awful.
Couldn't stand it myself. But, to each their own.
