Pulp Fiction - The little conversation between SLJ and JT at the begining is just classic. That and the "Say what again mother fucker! I dare you! I Double dare you!"
Battle Royale - Gratuitous violence it the name of ratings.
Natural Born Killers - Robert Downey Jr. cracks me up every time "This is Ellton John confessing his bisexuality!"
Empire Strikes Back - The Vader/Luke fight is fantastic.
Monty Python and the Holy Grail - For the best military command ever given "RUN AWAY!"
Beetlejuice - Micheal Keton is great as Beetlejuice and it was the first Tim Burton film I saw and I was about 4.
Full Metal Jacket - For all the insults the drill instructor comes out with "Thank you John Wayne"
28 Days Later - One of the best zombie films I've seen.
Reservoir Dogs - "You know what this is? This is the worlds smallest violin playing just for the waitresses" That's what I tell the waitresses where I work when they complain.
The Emporers New Groove - Because I'm still a child at heart.
Pirates Of The Caribbean - For Jonny Depp and the comment IB made when he's being shot at "Only Imperial Stormtroopers are so precise"

Simply tell him the release and production dates for each.

If that doesn't work, then set him on fire.
