5 more examples of other Bad Dialogues and why they don't work and when they don't work and when they could work and why and how they do work in certain places.
1st type of Bad Dialogue is Name Calling
1st issue is Characters are addressing each other too often by first name.
2nd point is sounds super awkward nobody repeats each other's first name that often in real dialogue.
3rd issue is that it hurts the pacing of the conversation and that hurts the current pace of the story.
4th issue Unnecessary unless you are trying to get someone's attention or are trying to make a point. In others world the very Name addressing name calling has to make it into a punchline during a conversation to be considered appropriate dialogue in the latter sense of the option.
Movie clip comes from The Titanic apparently one of the written movies causes all the problems listed up above.
I do not remember the name of the movie clip shown with the good example of Name Calling that is listed in the picture below.
2nd form of Bad Dialogue is Preachy Dialogue I use my reference books to get all my preachy dialogue out of my system before I accidentally ending up throwing it into my fantasy stories that is how I stop myself from too much preaching in my books.
This is the types of Moments in scene where show counts on helping you more than the telling actually does. The way someone like a doctor might take away something that is causing his patient more harm than good is telling us by showing us through this doctor's actions that he's responsible and quite protective of his patients and successfully continues to uphold the saying, "Actions Speak Louder Than Words."
and Actions Will Always Speak Louder Than Any Words!
3rd Type of Bad Dialogue Filler Dialogue
Unlike other Bad Dialogue tropes this comes off as way too over the top easily natural when spoken because it is so very casual.
1st point as I stated Bland Natural Everyday Speech.
2nd point neither drives plot or reveals anything about the characters.
3rd points lacks tension, conflict and especially lacks focus.
4th point is it is way too natural and it is an aimless type of conversation with generic exchanges and even some well know cliched comments, Skylights.
4th type of Bad Dialogue Tropes Relentlessly Repeated Phrases.
1st point repetition of something one too many times will cause said phrase to lose impact thus inviting the Law of Diminishing in to Return.
2nd point makes the story feel as if it is a hamster endlessly spinning on wheels.
3rd clearest point blank tells us bluntly that it seems like the speaker has nothing to actually say.
This one is from Game of Thrones in the far later Seasons and it is a bad repeated phrase from Jon Snow, Skylights.
Compare that the earlier reaction to that of Ingrid's in the early start of the Season towards Jon Snow. I never watched Game of Thrones I never will, Skylights just to be clear.
There are 6 more Bad Dialogue Tropes to this Round 2 & 3 my lovely Skylights and other people who read.
