I AM WONDERING SOMETHING IN MY MIND AND HERE IT IS FOR YOU TO ALSO WONDER FOR.

I wonder if we’d have enjoyed the original Star Wars trilogy as much if every now and then a random character would complain that he / she / it could hear a loud, high pitched whine, and asked if anyone else could hear it. They’d stop, tilt their heads, frown and ask. It would happen every three or four minutes and would grind the movie to a halt for about 30 seconds every time. The last one would be in ROTJ when we’re given a false sense of security by not having it happen for 20 full minutes, then right at the end when the three Jedi ghosts look on in admiration and suddenly the music and celebration stops and Obi Wan says ‘Alright seriously. Does ANYONE else hear that? I’ve heard it since the bit with the hologram in the first film and it’s giving me an ulcer, I swear to god.’ Then he’d look at the camera, right at us and say ‘You heard it, didn’t you? Because of the big cinema speakers. I can hear it now - you must be able to hear it.’

ROLL CREDITS with high pitched whine steadily growing in volume until that’s all we hear. Then we’re all like ‘aahhhh, there WAS a high pitched whine - now I want to watch the whole trilogy again, it’ll all make sense when the characters ask if we can hear the whine, now.’

I, for one, would not not feel like this would enhance my enjoyment of the original films.

GOODBYE x
