So, I just watched Pulp fiction yesterday and laughed my head off. Afterward I mentioned it to a friend and he called it a "Cult Classic." I know what one is, but are there any other movies that are just so popular that they are quoted sometimes on a daily basis? Or, if you can't think of any, what are some of the funniest movies you've ever seen?
"I.. I know my time has come" Tethesis said with a gasp, a torrent of blood flowing from his lips.
"No! Hang on brother!!" Altharius could feel the warmth slip away from his dear sibling's hands
Tethesis's reached out his bloodied arm to Altharius's face.
"I..I have one final request"
Altharius leaned close to listen, tears welling in his once bright eyes.
"make sure th..they put my soulstone in a tank... it'll be... real fethin' cool"
"Yes, you're gonna be the most fethin' cool tank!!" burning hot tears streaked down Altharius's face, as he held his brother's soul in his grasp.

I hope you mean John Carpenter's version and not the original. But, I can see how some would consider the original a classic.

But only in a movie theater-you have to note that.

As I understood cult classics are films which didn't achieve much success when originally release but grew in popularity, hence the term cult. In which case most films listed above aren't cult classics. btw, transformers? wtf?
Anyway some of my faves...
Memento
La Haine
Body Double
Battle Royale
many things featuring van damme
25th hour
and many others i cant think of.

Not necessarily. They also often include classics in the field.

I am both selfish and chaotic. I value self-gratification and control; I want to have things my way, preferably now. At best, I'm entertaining and surprising; at worst, I'm hedonistic and violent.
depending on your classification of cult classics:
lock stock 2 smoking barrels
snatch
trainspotting

I had a boss just like that. Dressed like that. He even would walk around making fun of the character, not realizing THAT WAS HIM! I just realized I have a meeting today, he will be one of the other banks there and hasn't seenme since my promotion. This will be good.
