The dialogue in this movie is perhaps among the most unforgettable in the history of cinema. Of course, many kids walk around quoting Scarface, but even Al Pacino and his awful attempt at a Cuban-American accent that took a life of its own has nothing on Sam Jackson, all jheri-curled out. Perhaps the genius part of the dialogue is that most of it has very little, if anything at all to do with the plot, as was the case with the best dialogue in his previous movie, Reservoir Dogs (*cough*cityonfireremake*cough*).

This has to be one of the greatest scenes in the history of film:

DOES HE LOOK LIKE A BITCH *laughs maniacally*

This was my favorite part of the movie, too. Besides teh whole OD on heroin scene, that was crazy.

Reservoir Dogs indeed had some great unrelated dialogue as well: the whole Madonna bit at the beginning, the part where they talk about the girl who glued her husband's **** to his belly (how would you like it if every time you had to take a piss you'd have to do a handstand?), the story Mr Orange had to make up to impress the other guys.

That's what I love about Tarantino films: he makes big things seem unimportant (I shot Marvin through the face) and small things seem unimportant (do you know what they call a Quarter Pounder with cheese in Paris?). One of my favourite parts is the talk Jules and Vincent have about Europe, because everything they say about Holland is totally accurate: you can buy bottles of beer at a movie theatre, the whole weed part, and we really do drown our fries in mayonaisse.
