I like the seismic bomb myself. Sounds badass. It`s a list thats kind of a combo between favorites and the technical aspect of the sound itself though. If it were favorites, damn. I dont know. Thats pretty tuff. Would the Family Guy episode count?

I passed a hilux on the highway once and i swear it sounded like a tie fighter passing me. Want to know what tires he had.
But apparently if you run an electric razor on the back of a cooking pot it will sound like a pod racer?!?!?!?!

This reminds me how shitty that saber fight between Anakin and Count Dooku was. It was like they were at a Jedi Rave.

Great clip, I think people underestimate the importance of great sound effects in movies. You tend to take them for granted but they are the icing on the cake that bonds everything together.

Seismic bomb sounded cool and all but what about Chewie?! The blaster sound effects sound pretty generic, but noone can hear the sound of a tie fighter and not think StarWars straight away.

Not that I know shit about a sound designer`s point of view but, my quick top 10:

1. Light sabers of course.
2. Darth Vader, no argument there.
3. Tie fighters.
4. Chewie`s gargling growl.
5. R2D2
6~ Other later (well earlier) episode stuff that I don`t really remember now.

Sound effects and the soundtrack made those movies.

"straight away" brings up a poker ad?! nice targeted advertising.

Tie fighters wouldn`t have a sound because space is a vacuum.
But it`s a cool sound nonetheless.

And yes, they definately forgot thr Wilhelm scream. =D

Vote me down, but I`d just like to point out there`s no sound in space...
I agree somewhat with kimangroo, chewy should be at least on top 5

8 or 7 should be replaced with Chewie. Can`t believe his gargling growl didn`t make it. :(
