'''Slim:''' Uh, you said "prostitution" twice.\\
'''Don Canneloni:''' Well, I like it.
* Used twice in ''Film/DodgeballATrueUnderdogStory''. First with the ADAA, the American Dodgeball Association of America, and then with Patches O'Houlihan's Five D's of Dodgeball: Dodge, Duck, Dip, Dive, and... Dodge.
-->'''White Goodman:''' Get off of me, don't you touch me! It is over between us, Kate. Nobody makes me bleed my own blood - nobody!
* "The first rule of Film/FightClub is: You do not talk about [[RepetitiveName Fight Club]]. Second rule of [[OverlyLongGag Fight Club]] is: You ''do not'' talk about Fight Club."
** "The third rule of [[DrivenToSuicide Fight Club]], is that [[MemeticMutation mixing orange juice and concrete makes anything but the world's third worst screwdriver]]."
** "The first rule of [[{{Spaced}} Robot Club]] is: You do not talk about Robot Club. The second rule of Robot Club is: You ''do not'' talk about... no, wait, I got that wrong. The second rule is: No smoking."
*** Why can't we smoke?
*** Shh! We're not supposed to talk about it!
** [[Website/{{Neopets}} "The first rule of Punch Club, is that you do not talk about Punch Club."]]
** [[WebComic/{{XKCD}} The first rule of Tautology Club is the first rule of Tautology Club.]]
** "The [[WesternAnimation/TotalDramaIsland first rule]] of dodge ball is-" "[[DeadpanSnarker Do not talk about dodge ball?]]"
** Subversion: "The first rule of Film Club is we don't talk about Film Club. The second rule of Film Club is--" "We don't talk about Film Club?" "No! That's the first rule, don't you listen?"
** Another subversion, from the "[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I%27ve_Never_Seen_Star_Wars_%28radio_series%29 I've Never Seen Star Wars]]" episode with [[Series.DeadRingers Jan Ravens]], uttered by host Marcus Brigstocke: "The first rule of Women's Fight Club is that EVERYONE talks about Women's Fight Club!"
* ''LostInTranslation'' has the airport announcer right at the beginning: "Welcome to Tokyo International Airport. Welcome."
* ''Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail'' used this in the famous "Holy Hand Grenade" scene. "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin, then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceedest on to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it."
** The "Five is right out" line is referenced in another example of redundant repetition; see ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls.''
* ''Film/ManosTheHandsOfFate'' has so many examples that they would fill this page.
** Michael: "She's my baby. She'll understand. She's my baby. She'll understand."
** TheMaster: "Arise my wives. Give ear to the words of Manos. Arise my wives! And hear the will of Manos!"
** Torgo: "There is no way out of here. It will be dark soon. There is no way out of here."
*** "[[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S04E24ManosTheHandsOfFate It'll be dark soon.]]"
** "There is nothing to fear, madam. The Master likes you. Nothing will happen to you. He likes you."
** "Dead? No, madam. Not dead the way you know it. He is with us always. Not dead the way you know it. He is with us always."
** Basically just [[CrazyAwesome T]][[CrustyCaretaker o]][[EnsembleDarkhorse r]][[TheIgor g]][[NiceHat o]][[SycophanticServant .]] He seems to think the Master would not approve.
** Even Torgo's ''theme'' is redundant.
** Even the title is redundant when knowing that "manos" is Spanish for "''hands''." ''Hands: The Hands of Fate''
* In Disney's animated version of ''Disney/TheSwordInTheStone'', during the Wizards' Duel, one of the rules is that there's no cheating (ie it's against the rules to break the rules).
* Used in Charity's monologue from ''Theatre/SweetCharity'':
-->"You know what I did today? I looked at furniture. Bedroom sets, kitchen sets, bedroom sets, living room sets, bedroom sets."
* The ''Series/PowerRangersTurbo'' movie features this exchange near the beginning:
-->'''Lt. Stone:''' Boys, listen up, because you know how I hate to repeat myself. I HATE to repeat myself.\\
'''Bulk:''' You just did, sir!
* John Cusack's character in ''Film/HighFidelity'' says his favorite book is "Johnny Cash's autobiography 'Cash' by Johnny Cash".

* ''Film/IndianaJonesAndTheKingdomOfTheCrystalSkull'':
-->'''Indy:''' Their treasure wasn't gold; it was knowledge. Knowledge was their treasure.
* In the Turkish translation of ''StarWars'' (not to be confused with "''Film/TheManWhoSavesTheWorld''", aka ''Turkish Star Wars''), the line "The Jedi's strength comes from the Force." turns into "Jedi'ın gücü Güç'ten gelir." which in Turkish roughly means [[BlindIdiotTranslation "The Jedi's power comes from the Power."]], roughly. That translation has now become a minor Turkish meme.
** If you want to get technical, the word ending -ling means young/beginner. So Youngling means young-young. Sorta made the line "He killed the younglings" lose all drama, as well as [[{{Narm}} just making most people crack up.]]
* An MGM short from 1935 called ''La Fiesta de Santa Barbara'' [[FunWithSubtitles uses this for humorous effect during one of its narrator's helpful translations]]: [[BlindIdiotTranslation "You may be asking, what is a 'fiesta'?]] [[ElNinoIsSpanishForTheNino Well, 'fiesta' comes from the Spanish word 'fiesta', which means... 'fiesta'."]]
* The infamous ''Film/Plan9FromOuterSpace'' features this prediction from the opening narrator Criswell:
-->Future events such as these will affect you in the future.
* Also from Creator/EdWood, in ''Film/GlenOrGlenda'' the narrator offers the following observation:
-->Glen is not a homosexual. Glen is a transvestite, but he is not a homosexual.
** Possibly justified, as the two are regularly confused for each other.
* Disney's animated ''Disney/RobinHood'':
-->'''Prince John:''' I sentence you to sudden, instant, and even ''immediate'' death!

** "If I tattletale, I'll die till I'm dead."
* ''Film/ANightAtTheOpera'': "The party of the first part shall hereafter be known in this contract as the party of the first part..."
** Also, from ''Film/HorseFeathers'': "Members of the faculty and faculty members, students of Huxley and Huxley students. That about covers everyone."
* Dug from ''WesternAnimation/{{Up}}'' does this a lot:
-->'''Dug:''' My master made me this collar. He is a good and smart master and he made me this collar so that I may speak-[[RunningGag SQUIRREL!]]\\
''[looks to distance for a few seconds]''\\
'''Dug:''' My master is good and smart.\\
'''Carl Fredricksen:''' It's not possible!\\
'''Dug:''' Oh it is because my master is smart!

* In ''Film/MickeyBlueEyes'', the name of Hugh Grant's father-in-law's restaurant is [[AsLongAsItSoundsForeign "The La Trattoria,"]] which roughly translates into "The The Restaurant."
* One of the many {{Narm}}y lines from ''Film/TheLastAirbender''.
-->'''Yue:''' This time we show the fire nation that we believe in our beliefs as much as they believe in theirs.
** Also, "There is a spiritual place. The city was built around this place." And, "We have to find teachers, teachers to teach you bending!" Although it has been pointed out that the latter actually sounds like a line that Sokka from the original series would say, being such a DeadpanSnarker. In the movie, though, Sokka says the line completely seriously.
* ''Film/TheLostSkeletonOfCadavra'' when The Skeleton explains its plan.
-->'''The Skeleton:''' Once I am bought back to life, together you and I will rule the World together.
* The advertising tagline that appears on the movie poster for the ''Film/ScottPilgrimVsTheWorld'' film: "An epic of epic epicness."
** Also, about halfway through the movie, the evil ex-girlfriend ninja delivers this gem: "Next time, I'll be deadly serious next time."
** Let's not forget Scott introducing his teenage girlfriend to his roommate: "Hey, Knives, this is Wallace Wells, my cool, gay roommate. He's gay."
** Scott at one point uses the insult "You cocky cock!"
* From ''What Happens in Vegas'': "She is a wily temptress [...] and what do wily temptresses do, Jack? They tempt, in a wily fashion."
* Cranked UpToEleven from ''Film/{{Zoolander}}'':
--> '''Derek:''' Maybe you don't understand that the world doesn't revolve around you and your 'Do whatever it takes, ruin as many people's lives, just so long as you can make a name for yourself as an investigatory journalist, no matter how many friends you lose, or people you leave dead and bloodied along the way, just so long as you can make a name for yourself as an investigatory journalist, no matter how many friends you lose, or people you leave dead and bloodied and dying along the way?'
** And why male models?
** Also:
--> '''Anybody:''' It's that Hansel!
--> '''Mugatu:''' He's so hot right now!
* ''Film/StarTrekVITheUndiscoveredCountry'':
-->'''Chekov:''' I don't understand. If there was another ship, surely the assassins beamed aboard from that vessel, not Enterprise.\\
'''Spock:''' You're forgetting something, Mr. Chekov. According to our databanks, this ship fired those torpedoes. If we did, the killers are here. If we did not, whoever altered the databanks is here. In either case, what we are looking for is here.
** That's not so much 'redundancy' as Spock meticulously completing the syllogism.
* Lampshaded in ''Film/RobinHoodMenInTights'':
-->'''Prince John:''' Send word to one and all, and all and one... it's a little redundant, isn't it?
-->'''Announcer:''' WOOOOT?!
-->'''Prince John:''' SHUT UP!!
* From ''Film/MeanGirls'', after Regina has gotten back together with Aaron despite knowing that Cady likes him:
-->'''Cady:''' Why would she do that?\\
'''Janis:''' Because she's a life ruiner. She ruins peoples' lives.
* The title of {{Rockumentary}} ''Film/AnvilTheStoryOfAnvil''.
* ''Film/MysteryTeam''
-->'''Charlie:''' And THIS is the LUMBERYARD!
* The ''Franchise/EvilDead'' movies lift Lovecraft's Necronomicon as a major plotpoint, adding the Latin suffix "ex mortis." Since "Necronomicon" is already derived from the Greek "book of the dead," the full name is basically "The Book of the Dead of the Dead."
* ''Franchise/PiratesOfTheCaribbean''

--> There is a girl. A female. Of the opposite sex.
** ''[[Film/PiratesOfTheCaribbeanDeadMansChest Dead Man's Chest]]'':

* From ''Film/BadTeacher'':
--> "You can explain it tomorrow to the principal and the superintendent at the meeting you have with the principal and the superintendent tomorrow at the meeting. Tomorrow!"

-->'''Leo:''' You are supposed to keep healing me!
-->'''Gary:''' Which brings me to my lack of powers which I didn't have after I lost them! Did I mention losing my powers?"
* Lampshaded and justified in ''Film/GetSmart'':
-->'''TheMole:''' It's over, Max. I'll be taking that briefcase now.\\
'''Max:''' If you want it, you'll have to take it.\\
'''The Mole:''' That's... what I just ''said''.\\
'''Max:''' I know; I was just trying to annoy you.
* ''Film/{{Inception}}'': The title, ''Inception'', is displayed three separate times in the end credits. Inception.
* In ''Film/BatmanBegins'' the Gotham City Police cars are clearly labeled "GPD POLICE". Gotham Police Department Police?
** Clearly they're the police police who police police.

* In ''WesternAnimation/TheSpongeBobMovieSpongeOutOfWater'', when Plankton is trying to tell Mr. Krabs that the formula literally disappeared, Mr. Krabs answers with: "Why should I believe YOU, you lying liar?!"
* ''WesternAnimation/InsideOut'' uses this cleverly when looking at Deja Vu (and this, and Deja Vu, and that, oh, and Deja Vu!) from the Train of Thought.
* ''Film/ThePhiladelphiaStory'':
-->'''Macaulay Connor''': After which I deposited Tracy on her bed in her room, and promptly returned down here to you two - which doubtless you'll remember.

* ''Disney/{{Zootopia}}'': "I stood up for you, and you lied to me, you liar!"
