This time Oscar recognizes Brokeback Mountain (not Crash)!
David:
"No prisoners, no prisoners!" =
"I wish I knew how to quit you!" = Brokeback Mountain.
"All right, Mr.DeMille, I'm ready for my close-up" = Sunset Boulevard.
"ROSEBUD" = Citizen Kane.
"I'm as mad as hell and I'm not going to take this anymore!" = Network
TheStudDuck!:
I'm going to opt out of this game since I know about 80% of the quotes from the poster. :D
(I will answer one of my favorites, that I was so surprised to see there, which is: "No, if anyone orders Merlot, I'm leaving." -- from Sideways, of course. Actually, that's not really the good quote, the good one is, "NO! I AM NOT DRINKING ANY FUCKING MERLOT!" but I guess that couldn't really make the poster, eh?)

I can't read the one below this... can anyone else?
However...
"I'll get you my pretty... and your little dog, too!" = The Wizard of Oz
"Good evening, Clarice." = The Silence of the Lambs (? never seen the movie... cannibals creep me out)
"Open the pod bay doors, Hal." = 2001: A Space Odyssey
There are a lot of movies that didn't win Best Picture on there, you know? In a way, the poster is an indirect recognition that the Oscars don't get it right... a lot. (And did you notice how the fonts for the quotes fit the fonts used on the movie posters? Look at the font for BBM. It's obvious for the Star Wars and E.T. quotes, especially.)
(I'm not watching the Oscars this year, either. Bleah.)

"I coulda been a Contender. I coulda been somebody. On the Waterfront
"Frodo" Lord of the Rings
"My momma always said life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're going get." Forest Gump
Sashca1007:
I hope you all join in and answer all of these-- I know a good number of them seem really obvious, but there are some that I don't have a clue about, such as:
"Off the record, on the QT, and very hush-hush." (What? Yet another movie about pitchin' a stinky pup tent without leavin' no signs? :laugh: )
Also wondering about "Wind in the hair! Lead in the pencil!" ??? ;D
I'll take an easy one:
"What we've got here is failure to communicate." Cool Hand Luke
And an even easier one:
"Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn." Gone with the Wind
