What's your favorite sound effect from any Star Wars media? Audio, Music

Of course the hum and spark of a lightsaber are iconic, but what are some of your other favorite sounds and sound effects of Star Wars?

Heres one of mine... Jango Fett's seismic bombs.

I really like that Imperial warship klaxon.

I came here for this. This is Star Wars for me, but Jango’s seismic bombs were awesome, and one of the highlights of the prequels.

Tie Fighters...their engines and weapon sounds.

The lightsaber. I cannot believe im the first to mention it. It is the most unique sound I've ever heard in cinema.

Does every "word" Babu Frik says count?

Seismic charge is possibly the best thing about that film.

But SW has a number of fantastic and 'iconic' sounds. Saber, ion cannon, tie fighter, x wing engine, death star laser, etc. Loads. Even the fucking blaster sounds.

There’s a reason A New Hope won the Oscar for best sound design. They completely changed the game.

X-Wing sound FX give me a little buzz every time.

The alarm on the imperial ship.

Lightsaber ignition, "snap-hiss."

I also like the seismic charge sound effect, but that's really just an early variant of the "braaam" SE that became prevalent in later films.

Chewy's growl. His voice in general.

The sound of Zam's speeder.

TIE flyby and cannons, Imperial klaxon, Hoth pribe droid and seismic charge. All of those are alerts for different things on my phone. 😂

Love that weird gasping/wheezing sound that beheading Count Dooku makes. It's so disturbing.

u/magnetman47 14d ago

Jango Fett's blaster

u/BombadSithLord Sith 14d ago

The deep sound of Ezra’s first lightsaber igniting, it is unlike anything else. Either that, or the lego Yoda death sound.

u/Rude_Cancel_983 14d ago

Surprised nobody said the Geonosian blaster sounds or any of Boga's sounds as a second best.
