MoviePhone instead relies upon more explicit audio language. You can terminate the conversation at any time, without the polite formalities that normally take place in human conversation. Whereas in human conversation it may not feel appropriate to interrupt someone who is telling you something you already know or don t need to know, MoviePhone doesn t care if you interrupt in these cases. You can interrupt MoviePhone s listing by pushing the button to request the earliest showtime. Then, you can move on to the next decision point.
Repetition helps to clarify and confirm thoughts.
Often, MoviePhone repeats back to you what you chose in the previous decision point. For example, after choosing the name of a movie to see, MoviePhone replies by stating the name of the movie you selected before it presents the next round of choices. In other types of conversations, this type of repetition might be annoying. Also, if you need to hear MoviePhone s choices, you can have it repeat them again. This doesn t work so well in human conversation after about the third time.
