Anakin! Anakin! NOOOOOOOO!!!!

WHAT!!?? you can hear babie cry in that part??

 

Both the novel and sw.com have confirmed that it's QGJ all the way, but I must say the Nooo sounds most like Yoda.

This and Syfo-Dias MUST be cleared up for EpIII

 

er..Syfo who?

 

Darth Banal- do you really think that GL will ignore the Sifo-Dyas storyline AND the whole "NOOOOOO"? Come on. And who hears babies crying?! I think some of you have been listening to this clip TOO many times! ?

 

Banal, read back a page or two. The offical site only confirmed that Liam Nesson was the voice of the "Anakin! Anakin!" part. It probably being the clip from TPM tattoine(sp) escape scene. The "NOOOOO" is obviously not Liam Nesson. Nesson recorded parts for the Yoda Meditation scene, but in post-production GL switched to the Yoda-ish sounding clip from the AOTC we hear now.

 

Doesn't sound like Yoda to me, and most definitely not like Qui-Gon. I always thought that the "Noooooooo!!" was a future event to happen in Ep. 3; just like the Vader breathing we hear at the end. And I tend to believe that the simplest answer usually tends to be the right answer. This really makes sense to me pertaining to the voice. To me, the simplest answer would mean that the "Noooo!!" is a future event we're hearing and not anyone we know yet - b/c it sounds *nothing* like Qui-Gon/Yoda. If we have to listen to it over and over again, or try to explain why the voice sounds different.... then it's not either of them.

And please keep in mind that the above is only my own opinion. A strong opinion, but an opinion nonetheless.

Guess we'll finally find out in three years.

 

I just wish these boards would stop arguing one over the other ("It's Yoda!", "It's Qui-Gon!" "It's Anakin!" "It's Max Rebo!"). There's nothing wrong with speculating and sharing theories, but it's really kind of sad how there's a few folks here who are convinced they're right. 2005 will provide the answer.

 

starwars.com Community Ask the Lucasfilm Jedi Council Ben Burtt Answer



July 01, 2002


Q: Do I hear the voice of Qui-Gon Jinn shouting, "Anakin, Anakin... No!", in Yoda's apartment after Anakin attacks the Tusken Raiders?

A: Yes indeed, the voice that Yoda hears is that of Qui-Gon Jinn.

Hey Banal, do you think that Ben Burtt's answer to that question would be any less truthful if just the "Nooo" part was someone other then Qui Gon?

 

The NOOOOOO clearly sounds nothing like Qui-Gon.

 

The answer would be wrong, because the question included the "nooo"

 

It's supposed to be Qui-gon, despite it not sounding like him.

 

D-Sinister has it right.

"It doesn't sound like QuiGon" isn't a fact that discounts it from being him.

And I WOULD trust the AOTC sound editor to know that it really is supposed to be QuiGon. The novel says the same thing.

 

From Ben Burtt on the Official Site

 

LOL this thread keeps giving me deja vu!

 

The difference is Yoda of Ep I never says to not focus on the present. Yoda of Empire only implies that Luke looks only towards the future and past hence usage of the word "never" "never his mind on where he was mmph, what he was doing mmph. adventure, excitement, a jedi craves not these things. you are reckless."

 

That's seeing the future, not hearing the dead. Two totally seperate things.

 

"The answer would be wrong, because the question included the "nooo" "

Oissan, How would it be wrong exactly? Let's say that Qui Gon said the Anakin part, and just for fun, say that someone else said the "nooo" part. Is Qui Gonn the voice that we heard, even though he didn't say the "nooo" part? The answer is yes, the voice we heard was Qui Gon. Burtt says that the voice Yoda hears is that of Qui gon. If the "nooo" part were someone else and Burtt was trying to hide that fact, this is the perfect way to address the question because Burtt is telling the truth, just not the whole truth. If Ben Burtt had just said yes to the question, that might have been different because he would be saying yes to *every part of the question*. But by saying that "yes, the voice yoda hears is that of Qui Gon", he doesnt necessarily answer the question entirely and specifically if you follow me. He tells you what he is saying yes to, which was not the entire question.

 

Well it's settled then, the noooooo is supposed to be Qui-Gonn but Liam wasn't available to record it.

 

Yup, for all those who feel it is settled, you shouldn't feel the need to come talk about it here or anywhere anymore Im guessing, since it is already a fact and settled right? Cool

 

IT'S NOT THAT HARD TO UNDERSTAND!!!


Just because it doesn't sound quite like Qui-Gon does NOT mean it's not him.

Ben Burtt and the novelization have both said so. If that's not enough proof for you, then I'd say you're ignorant.

 

Neeson was available, but they decided to use a garbbled voice for reasons yet unknown.

 

Ignorant. That was funny. Almost as funny as "Stardude".

 

My theory on this-

Qui Gon was the first Jedi to learn how to keep their spirit after death.

The 'Nooo' is Anakin, falling into lava or whatever he falls into.

Cheap but simple.

 

The 'Anakin! Anakin!' is definetly Qui-Gon Jinn, a soundbite from TPM when he told Anakin to drop to avoid Darth Maul. As for the 'NOOOOOOOOO' I say that it's Yoda and then at the very end you hear Vader's breathmask.
