History Main / ShutUpHannibal

He's a ''villain''. A ''bad guy''. He has tried to kill you and your friends a dozen times over. He dangled your {{Sidekick}} and your {{Love Interest|s}} over a cliff, [[EvilGloating taunting you]] to [[SadisticChoice pick one of them]]. He treats other people, [[BadBoss including his own underlings]], like dirt. He doesn't care about people, order, or [[StrawHypocrite whatever he's using to justify his actions]]--he just wants power. [[FreudianExcuse Dude's been through hard times]]? [[FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse Shallow excuses to do bad things]]; we've been through hard times too and we never murdered anyone because of it! [[KickTheDog And he ran over your daughter's puppy]]. You're ''nothing'' like him. He's ''wrong''. So you tell it to him, [[PunctuatedForEmphasis spell it out if necessary]], then beat the crap out of him in a manner [[RightMakesMight most righteous]] (or, if you are a common human against a superpowered villain, or the work is not action-oriented, [[DefiantStoneThrow a slap]] may be an appropriate outcome as well.)

Contrast KirkSummation which is where the hero rebuts the villain's speech with his own. Here, the hero doesn't bother.

* Ivan's reactions to Temozarela's fallen angels' [[BreakThemByTalking mindraping speech]] in ''Manhwa/{{Priest}}'' are basically this with [[TalkToTheFist extreme prejudice]].

* In the ''WebAnimation/HelluvaBoss'' episode "Ozzie's", there's a song version. Moxxie has taken Millie for a one-year-anniversary date at Ozzie's -- ie. the House of Asmodeus, the archdemon of lust (it's still a club, though), and takes to the stage to sing a love song. He's interrupted (still int he form of a song) by Asmodeus himself, accompanied by the robot-clown Fizzarolli, who mock him and insist that he should sing about lust instead. After this has been going on for a while, Millie crashes down on top of Fizzarolli and hands Moxxie back his guitar. "I think you were trying to sing something for me, Mox." He finishes his love song, and the audience cheers and applauds.

The name is a reference to this being a response to a HannibalLecture, but it would be more accurate to refer to the trope BreakThemByTalking, since HannibalLecture only concerns certain interrogation scenes.

So you're [[FinalBattle finally facing the villain]]. He's being all {{smug|Snake}} and [[BreakThemByTalking trying to break you]] with his words, [[{{Deconstruction}} deconstructing]] your motives for fighting him and reminding you of how ''[[NotSoDifferentRemark similar]]'' you are to him, unleashing a [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech blistering spiel of how your flaws make you pathetic]], making you uncomfortable with his [[AccentuateTheNegative too-close-to-truths]], offering you the opportunity to [[WeCanRuleTogether join him]], et cetera et cetera… and what should your response be? [[KirkSummation Tell him the error of his ways,]] and [[LastSecondChance offer him a chance to join the good guys?]] A measured, reasonable response, indicating your disagreement? [[VillainHasAPoint Let the villainous argument throw you]] and make you wonder if [[MirrorCharacter you and he are similar]]?
