Anakin! Anakin! NOOOOOOOO!!!!

"I don't know how they did that," Neeson said. "We tried to record something here [in New York City, where Neeson lives]. But then they digitalized something and put it together and sent it to me, the way they can these days, to hear [and for his approval]. I thought, 'That's good.'"

"But then they digitalized something and put it together and sent it to me" Wow, thanks. That's very conclusive as to who actually voiced the "NOOOOO" part. No wonder you are so smug.

Maybe if you smoke a little more crack that deep raspy voice one day actually WILL start to sound like Liam Nesson.

I guess GL's team just couldn't pull off a clip of Nesson or at the very least a Nesson-ish voicing of "NOOOO", huh. I mean, they are so technologicaly backwards and everything.

 

No way. It sounds much more like Miss Piggy!

if thats directed at me then what more do you want? GL to come to yer door and explain everything? people have answered yer questions. get over it.


LOL at Ferelwookie!!! Maybe its Kermy AND Miss Piggy!!

 

Well, think about this. It's supposed to sound that way. The idea is that Qui-gon is the first to retain his identity. He doesn't know how to do it like Obi-wan and Yoda does later on. Thus he's trying to be heard and as soon as he is, he fades out and his voice is distorted.

 

hey darth-sinister,

this all makes more sense now that you put it that way. you've convinced me. but it was fun to think about the noooooo being yoda for a little while. i'm just upset that i never got a chance to say anything intellignet about the subject.

 

I never said that you couldn't speculate. I encourage it. I'm just saying that it's still going to turn out to be Qui-gon. And what I said will be true in some form or another. Or I could be way off.

 

how about this every one ask the jedi council at star wars.com they have to answer one of us

 

this question or a different question?

 

no if the noo was meant to be qui gons voice, because people wont stop denieing that

 

look guys, never mind the 'noooooo!'- THIS is more serious. WHO is the demented and evil laughter in the background- its been troubling me for years!!

 

what was that

 

"Well, think about this. It's supposed to sound that way. The idea is that Qui-gon is the first to retain his identity. He doesn't know how to do it like Obi-wan and Yoda does later on. Thus he's trying to be heard and as soon as he is, he fades out and his voice is distorted"

That is a good theory, thing is it doesn't sound ANYTHING AT ALL like Qui-Gon/Liam Nesson. If it was Nesson's voice that was distorted, I'd be more apt to agree with you. It sounding a lot like Yoda opens up another possibility. Do you deny it sounds just like Yoda, Sinister?

Your evidence does not confirm that the "NOOOOO" is going to end up as being Qui-Gon in the end. It sounding exactly like Yoda makes the Yoda sides argument just as strong if not stronger(e.g. the original Empire Strikes Back scripts DID NOT have Vader as Luke's father, Anakin was to be an entirely different character, things change).

**So it being changed to sound like Yoda in post-production, post-Nesson NYC recordings, is very strong evidence**

 

Did I say it was Neeson yelling NOOOO!!? No I didn't. I did say that the garbled voice was supposed to be Qui-gon Jinn. And I've listened to it several times. It does not sound like anything like Yoda.

 

Well, peronally I think it really DOES sound a lot more like Miss Piggy than Qui-Gon. i.e. it sounds nothing like Qui-Gon.

Look, if listen to the clip and conclude that it sounds "nothing like Yoda" you are obviously just trying to win an argument, and not trying it get to any truth. Have you listened to this scene outside the theatre? It sounds A LOT like Yoda screaming "NOOOOOO!". This doesn't mean it is Yoda of course, only GL knows who it's supposed/going to be.

I invite people who haven't given their opinions yet to listen to the clip below and vote here as to if they think it is:

A. Yoda

B. Qui-Gon

C. Anakin

D. your write-in vote

I still think it sounds like Anakin, either from some future point in time (the mask going on in Ep. 3?) or more likely at the height of his raging attack on the sandpeople. Remember, we only saw the very beginning of his rampage. What caused his rampage? The one event that Anakin feared most... the death of his mother. Seems to me that what we're hearing is Anakin breaking down and crying out in anguish about his mother being killed even as he wreaks havoc on the Tusken village.

It KINDA sounds like Yoda a bit, but it still sounds more like Anakin to me.

 

its B

 

Or ELSE...

It could be Homer Simpson!

Anakin! Anakin!

"D'OHHHHHHHHH!!!"

 

It sounds nothing like Yoda. Hell, we haven't even heard Yoda yell. We've heard the sound he makes when fighting Dooku, but not him yelling at all in the last four films.

 

I don't think it sounds like either Yoda or Qui-Gonn. I think it's either Anakin or someone we haven't seen yet, and we'll probably find out (I think) during Anakin's actual demise.

 

"D'OHHHHHHHHH!!!"

LMAO!!!!!!! Thanks, man- that scene will never the same for me now!!!

I do like those poems...

I just want to say, as nobody's mentioned it for a while, that you can hear what sounds like Vader's breathing towards the end of that little sound clip.

 

Couple thoughts:

Maybe GL recorded the "NO" to allow him room in the next movie. He writes up a few different scenarios in which it could be QGJ, Obi, Ani, Yoda, and which ever fits in best for the next film he uses - we'll never know if he wrote it for one person but chooses to use it for another due to it working the final story better.

Second thought: I downloaded it and listened with headphones. My first thought was Anakin falling. As many people have stated, it sounds like the "voice is fading" - possibly as GQJ's spirit fades, but possibly Ani's voice fading as he falls to the molten pit??

3rd thought: If you listen closely, after the "no" is spoken, just prior to the vader breathe, you hear what I believe is either a tusken raider getting chopped, or a baby crying. My gut instinct is a tusken raider getting his head chopped off, but then again GL could have manipulated this section of audio to use it in a vareity of ways depending on how he plays out the final Episode.

4th thought: listen to the background music. There is signing going on - I can't make out what they are saying, but there's also either a musical instrument or something that sounds like "something bubbling over" - it happens twice, the last one occurring just before you hear the vader breathe. Could be totally off base, but could be the molten spewing over or bubbling, GQJ yelling "Anakin, Anakin..." as he either sees Ani destroy Tuskens OR FALLING...then you hear the "NO" which is in relation to Ani falling to his demise, then the Vader breathe which foreshadows his becoming vader.

What do you guys think of:

The music
The sound effects of the clip (not the vader breathe, that's obvious)
The sound of a tusken raider or baby crying

etc.

 

I agree GL probably purposely left it ambiguous to give himself some leway. I still say it sounds nothing like Qui-Gon though.

 

Hi Tyranosour, there is indeed a lot going on in that short clip. I still can't see the "NOOOOOOOO" as any known character other than Yoda though. To me, it sounds JUST like him(the raspiness, the tone etc. it just seems to BE him, or rather Frank Oz). That is logical though, Anakin falling then the breath of Vader, but it doesn't sound like him, PT or OT. It is certianly more likely to be Anakin than Qui-Gon though, IMHO.

 

And also, the baby(babies) crying... Luke and Leia?
