I can see that. But I still think that what PTA lacks in making great lines he more then makes up for in casting people who really act the part well rather then deliver funny lines. For instance, Jackson's character in Pulp delivered some of the best lines of the decade, but it was not a great performance like Julianne Moore in Boogie Nights.

Kharn is right about Bogard, and few films show him off better than the Maltese Falcon, a classic noir.
But the book is much better.

Harris: You know, you might wanna think about taking Jesus Christ as your lord and savior instead of fooling around with this stuff.
Cerrano: Ah... Je`sus. I like him very much. But he no help with curve ball.
Harris: Are you tryin to tell me that Jesus Christ can't hit a curve ball?

Reservoir Dogs:
Marvin: "I already told you I don't know anything about any fucking setup; you can torture me all you want."
Mr. Blonde: "Torture you? That's a good idea. I like that."
-
Mr. Blonde: "Listen kid, I'm not gonna bullshit you, all right? I don't give a good fuck what you know, or don't know, but I'm gonna torture you anyway, regardless. Not to get information. It's amusing, to me, to torture a cop. You can say anything you want cause I've heard it all before. All you can do is pray for a quick death, which you ain't gonna get... You ever listen to K-Billy's "Super Sounds of the Seventies" weekend? It's my personal favorite."

Joe: "Only one thing to do in that case: shit in yer pants, dive in and swim!"

Suaside- I actually thought the better lines were in the diner in the beginning. For instance-
On the true meaning of Madonna's "Like a Virgin"
On the moral issue of tipping-
On the problem of when one of your group wants to stiff the waittress's tip & what service is worth 15%-
On the masculine problem of pink

Vince Vaugn has had some hilarious perfromances (go see Wedding Crashers if you havent), and some great lines. This one from 'MADE"
Ash: [talking to mirror] I'm fine... I'm fine...
[Mirror Ash jumps out of the mirror and grabs Ash]
Mirror Ash: I don't think so. We just cut up our girlfriend with a chainsaw. Does that sound "fine"?
You see this? THIS... is my BOOM STICK! (legendary!)
Yo, she-bitch! Let's go! I actually used that "she-bitch" word once. The Horny warElephant almost kicked my ass, but I stayed true to myself. No fat phoontang that evening! Instead I got some normal good phoontag and still curse myself for not getting her number.

If you are referring to Reservoir dogs...well I think that movie was good. Pulp fiction is awesome, but as for Kill Bill?s... I personally think they are quite shite.
The best stuff comes when tarantino gangs up with robert. You just gotta love those movies.

Kill Bill 2 was mad - Great acting, characters, dialogue, plot development, shooting, and that fantastic last scene...
Maybe I just missed the point of Reservior Dogs - what do you think makes it a good movie? I think the idea was good, and the first quarter was good, but then it became really sloppy in the editing. If it was only slightly more linear it would have been much better.
Personally, I think Tarantino was trying to give a serious movie a Pulp feel, which doesn't seem to work.
Keeping on topic, other great bits of dialogue are the voice overs in 'Armageddon Now' - superbly done. (I suppose it would be a sin not to mention the napalm speech or "Charlie Don't Surf!")
Also the killing (termination, turning off - what are you supposed to say?) of HAL in 2001.
