ANH,DID Luke Yell Carrie!!! ??

After the DS is destroyed,and they are back in the rebel base hangar,Luke gets out of the x wing saying "Carrie!",is this fact?

I remember hearing this a long time ago,but the newer movies versions never have this.

Now Im wondering if my mind is playing tricks on me,and if he did in fact,or not,yell her real name instead of Leia! and they wrapped up the scene that way.

 

I've heard about this supposed mistake, but to me it's always sounded like he said "hey!!"

 

I've heard this rumor as well. Haven't ever heard it for myself, so I can't prove or disprove it.

 

I don't know if Luke yelled "Carrie", but I know River said "Sean Maher" in Serenity...

 

I've always heard "Hey!" Even when I look at his mouth, it never moves with "R's" The way "CaRRie" would.

 

It's never sounded like "Carrie" to me. It's always sounded like "Hey!" just said with a lot of excitement.

 

Luke doesn't shout 'Carrie', it just maybe sounds a bit like that, especially if you have it in mind that that is what he's saying (much like the supposed 'Son of the Suns' in ROTJ and TPM that so many people swore blind was really there). starwars.com used to have an article that debunked some Star Wars urban legends and Luke shouting Carrie at the end of ANH was one of them. This is what they said about it:


Urban Legend: At the end of A New Hope, an excited Luke Skywalker can be heard to yell "Carrie!" to Princess Leia.

Actors do make mistakes. They are, after all, humans (even the computer-generated ones, at heart). Since so much work has to go into turning an on-set performance into a finished Star Wars movie, mistakes can be caught and fixed by the many people who handle the film after the shooting is done.

Much of the sound heard in Star Wars was created and crafted after the action had been shot. Though on-set microphones captured the live performance as it occurred, many times actors had to come back in to loop dialog. Even dialog that is captured on set is carefully mixed and massaged by sound editors to achieve a certain consistency and interaction with other added sound effects. In the end, so many people scrutinize the audio recording that it seems unlikely that such a gaff could have gotten through. So, while it indeed sounds like "Carrie!" to many people, in the finished film, that's not what Mark Hamill says.

What does he say? While putting together the improved soundtrack for the Special Edition Trilogy, sound editor Ben Burtt investigated the matter. All the original tracks, 1/4-inch tapes, and source materials were pulled out from storage, and listened to in a big mix room at Skywalker Sound. "We made loops out of everything Mark said and played them for a panel of listeners," says Burtt. "We edited the recording and filtered it and did everything we could to clean up the phrase where he yells as he hugs Princess Leia"
The audio investigation included numerous takes of Mark Hamill recording that scene. "The consensus was that he is yelling 'hey' or 'yay,' rather than 'Carrie.' In other takes he specifically yells 'yay!' at that point," explains Burtt. "Like most garbled dialog, if you listen to it over and over with all the other voices in there you can convince yourself that he is saying 'Carrie' or any number of things. But we were convinced that he really was just cheering."

According to Mark Hamill, he excitedly yells "Hey! There she is!" indicating that Luke was scanning the rushing crowd for Leia. In the excitement, Luke doesn't stop to enunciate each syllable like a certain golden protocol droid would do. "I ended up swallowing the 'is' part," says Hamill. So the end result was garbled to the point that some people believe it sounds an awful lot like "Carrie!" So much so that even those closely involved in the production can hear that if they listen to it enough times.

 

It's there. You'll never convince me otherwise.

 

I've heard about this, but was never sure where it supposedly was...
