Conclusions CONCLUSIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
explanation becomes the most used realization by the characters because they want to minimize biased information in order to make the others believe in what
they say. It appears as the speakers are aware of the need to defend their arguments. On the other hand, down-toning the effect of the statement does not
appear in the movie because the characters in the movie often deliver their disagreements in order to show that the current speaker’s statement is wrong and
its effect should not be down-toned. The characters in the movie use unmitigated disagreement acts in three ways.
They are 1 a short direct of opposite orientation, 2 sarcastic remark, and 3 a short rude question. A short direct of opposite orientation becomes the most used
realization because the characters want to show their disagreements directly. Furthermore, this strategy is also the shortest and the most effective one among
the others to deliver disagreement expression especially when the characters are arguing.
3. The third objective of the research is to reveal the reasons for using certain types
of disagreement acts in
The Fault in Our Stars
movie. Based on the findings, there are eight reasons for performing certain disagreement act strategies in the
movie. Those reasons are categorized by analyzing the setting and the situation of the conversations depending on their contexts. The reasons that can be found
are because the character is 1 showing uncertainty about hisher own idea, 2 respecting the first speaker, 3 refusing the
first speaker’s judgment, 4 showing off authorities, 5 prohibiting the first speaker to do an action, 6 making an
excuse of the initial statement, 7 avoiding the topic of conversation, and 8 criticizing the first speaker’s statement. The characters in the movie often express
their disagreements because they are refusing the first speaker’s judgment as a result of entirely different arguments between two speakers or characters.
