Sticking out as perhaps the most infamous but equally cherished blooper to ever be committed to the big screen, the sight of an unfortunate Stormtrooper whacking their head on a blast door was so hard to ignore that George Lucas had no choice but to add an equally hilarious sound effect to the scenario in later editions of A New Hope.

This isn't the only acknowledgement of this blatant cinematic c*ck-up within Star Wars canon, though, as Lucas once again tipped his cap to the clumsy Stormtrooper during Jango Fett's departing from Kamino in Attack of the Clones.

In a very much intentional call-back to said A New Hope head bonking, the bounty hunter smacks his own CGI head on his spaceship's door upon entering the craft. And just to hammer home the tribute, Lucas again decided to add a cartoonish thump sound effect during the comical moment steel met Beskar.
