Burtt did mention something when he departed about being really frustrated, but it was never elaborated on. Sounded weird to me.
You're the dude who makes the sound effects on the Star Wars films. How can that be frustrating, I have no idea...

So, something doesn't sound exactly right here....


Have you ever made a movie before? It's very frusterating. Try doing lightsaber effects... after a while of rotoscoping you wan't to kill yourself.

As for the article, this Roffman guy sounds like he's full of it. Another Yes-men...


Sorry, never made a movie before, but I don't think it's frustrating. It's hard work, yeah....and it can be challenging, but I don't think it would be frustrating. But since I don't make movies, I will ask if you do....if you don't, then maybe both of should pipe down cuz we both may not know what we are talking about.

Burtt didn't do any rotoscoping, dude. He came up with all kinds of wacky sounds from all kinds of wacky sources. Doesn't sound too stressful to me. I'd take the job.

I will reiterate....he's working on STAR WARS. Not some no-name sci-fi flick. I think Burtt was unsatisfied with something.......probably his boss. Burtt was with Lucas from the beginning. That would make Burtt less likely to be a yes-man since he knew Lucas when Lucas was a nobody with a few films under his belt.

Something sounds off....
