Take the binky away if you want him to start talking to you, for one... that's just my opinion there, but I don't know him.

It's also usually easier to stop the bottle at a younger age, cause as they get older they get a better grasp on will power lol. And they get mad because they don't have what they want. But really you probably just have to stick to your guns and wait it out... He'll have to get used to it, and you know you're not hurting him. He'll take the cup if he wants to drink something. Don't worry, he'll forget about it soon enough. Good luck though. =)
