20 Things You Somehow Missed In Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi

7. Laura Dern's "Pew"

It's been well-documented how a number of the galaxy's greatest Jedi actors have often found it pretty tough to get through a take without making a few of their own lightsaber sound effects.

But did you spot that time Laura Dern let slip her very own giddy "pew!" whilst using a blaster during The Last Jedi?"

If not, then keep an eye on the moment the Vice-Admiral Holdo thespian stuns the Resistance members helping a mutinous Poe Dameron.

As revealed by Rian Johnson during that aforementioned director's commentary (via Decider), Dern simply could not help herself in the moment and repeatedly unleashed a few "pew pew!" noises when pulling the trigger on her blaster, with one even making it into the film during that shoot-out.

What's the point of being in a Star Wars flick if you can't let out the odd "swoosh!" and "pew!", eh?
