winstonwelles	Posted Feb 5th, 2009 at 5:58PM You know what cliched movie dialogue annoys me? The way any dramatic line has to be repeated after saying the other person's name, buffalolotus... The way any dramatic line has to be repeated after saying the other person's name. Rated: +1Vote for this!

pickynancy1234	Posted Feb 5th, 2009 at 5:58PM I don't think that I specifically remember that being a line in any film that I can think of. I am sure it has been a line in films that I have seen, but it doesn't stick out to me. Maybe you should watch some other types of films. Rated: +1Vote for this!

It's all part of the formula that the writers type into their little computers to come up with the newest and greatest scary movie. We like to think they're all different and original, but really they're mathematically made! Rated: +1Vote for this!
