you see this alot on television shows to save money....
example: BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER
Buffy runs into the group of snotty teens who always make fun of her.
Cornelia(?)) makes some insulting remarks and all her friends smile, laugh and make gestures but NONE DARE TALK . iT IS REALLY ANNOYING THAT OUT OF A WHOLE GROUP OF PEOPLE ONLY ONE PERSON SAYS ANYTHING.!!!
[oF, COURSE , THIS IS DONE BECAUSE ANY SPEAKING PART HAS TO BE PAID scale!]
bruce
ps STAR TREK is another example - extras on the bridge never talk even if they are officers
in the middle of the action!

when a character repeats a phrase to give a more emphatic meaning to the dialogue:
"I would like to dream, doctor. Do you think I will ever dream?"
"Yes, someday you will, Bobby... someday you will."
In most cases, this type of repetition just strikes me as stoopid.
But, in some rare circumstances, it works:
"Open the pod bay doors, Hal... open the pod bay doors."
Good point. In the first example it is redundant and actually spoofed a lot in comedies. In the second example, Bowmen (?) is assuming, Hal did not hear the command, so he repeats it.

this one is so common that it has ceased to be something to hate - it just is something we accept!

I talk that way in life when I am making a strong point.
Do you really, Dan? Do you really?

Women who want to break into an apartment/house always convince the landlord to let them in
by saying "i'm his girlfriend or "i'm locked out".
Even though she is a total stranger the landlord agrees - after first protesting that he can't do it 'cause "it's against regulations'
saw this in BOSS
