8 Hidden Facts You Never Knew About Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge Of The Sith
4. Anakin Skywalker's Lightsaber Sound Changes During The Movie
Sticking with the siege of the Jedi Temple, that galaxy-changing event contained one of the most harrowing moments ever to appear in a Star Wars story.
The newly christened Darth Vader wandered into the Council Chamber, spotted a bunch of frightened younglings trying to hide from the brainwashed clones, ignited his lightsaber, and Lucas allowed the audience's imaginations to do the rest.
Many were too busy being appalled by The Chosen One's actions to spot a properly fascinating little detail on show here, though.
Listen very closely as Vader switches on his iconic lightsaber to slice his way through the next generation of Jedi.
The sound it makes as the blue laser bursts from the hilt is actually different to the one viewers hear when it's switched on at various points before this slaughter.
Instead, the noise made here sounds more like the one heard when Vader turns on his lightsaber in the original trilogy, secretly showing again how, despite using the same weapon as before, Anakin is not the man he once was in this traumatising moment.
