Castle Thunder (sound Effect)
Castle thunder is a sound effect that consists of the sound of a loud thunderclap during a rainstorm. It was originally recorded for the 1931 film ''Frankenstein'', and has since been used in dozens of films, television programs, and commercials. History After its use in ''Frankenstein'', the Castle Thunder was used in dozens of films from the 1930s through the 1980s, including ''Citizen Kane'' (1941), ''Bambi'' (1942), '' You Only Live Twice'' (1967), ''Young Frankenstein'' (1974), ''Star Wars'' (1977), ''Ghostbusters'' (1984), ''Back to the Future'' (1985), and ''Big Trouble in Little China'' (1986). Use of the effect in subsequent years has declined because the quality of the original analog recording does not sufficiently hold up in modern sound mixes. The effect appears in Disney productions (largely from the 1940s to 1980s), and Hanna-Barbera cartoons, including the original ''Scooby-Doo'' animated series. It can also be heard at the Haunted Mansion attraction at Disney th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

In-jokes
An in-joke, also known as an inside joke or a private joke, is a joke with humour that is understandable only to members of an ingroup; that is, people who are ''in'' a particular social group, occupation, or other community of shared interest. It is, therefore, an wikt:esoteric, esoteric joke, only humorous to those who are aware of the circumstances behind it. Typically, inside jokes use a reference in the punchline to imply that which is associated with the reference. Often, this reference refers to the punchline of another joke which was already heard by the ingroup. In-jokes may exist within a small social clique, such as a group of friends, or extend to an entire profession or other relatively large group. When the ingroup only includes people which heard the previous portion of a comedic set, the type of inside joke is known as a Callback (comedy), callback.

Tarzan Yell
The Tarzan yell or Tarzan's jungle call is the distinctive, ululating yell of the character Tarzan as portrayed by actor Johnny Weissmuller in the films based on the character created by Edgar Rice Burroughs starting with '' Tarzan the Ape Man'' (1932). The yell was a creation of the movies based on what Burroughs described in his books as simply "the victory cry of the bull ape." History and origin Although the RKO Picture version of the Tarzan yell was putatively that of Weissmuller, different stories exist as to how the Tarzan yell was created. One claim is that the yell was developed and recorded by opera singer Lloyd Thomas Leech. Leech performed opera from the 1940s into the '60s, winning the Chicagoland Music Festival on August 17, 1946, and went on to sing throughout the U.S., touring with several opera companies. Leech recalls inventing the Tarzan yell at a promotional event for the film, where a representative of the studio had said that the yell was still to be deci ...

Howie Scream
A stock sound effect is a prerecorded sound effect intended to be reused with an entertainment product, as opposed to creating a new and unique sound effect. It is intended to work within a sound effect library. History As far back as Ancient Greece, sound effects have been used in entertainment productions. Sound effects (also known as ''sound FX'', ''SFX'', or simply ''FX'') are used to enhance theatre, radio, film, television, video games, and online media. Sound effects were originally added to productions by creating the sounds needed in real-time. Various devices and props were utilized to approximate the actual sounds, including coconut shells for horse hooves, and a sheet of metal for thunder. With the advent of radio and specifically radio dramas, the role of sound effects became more important. When cinema went from silent to "talkies", sound effects became a large part of this new medium, too. Audio recording technology continued to evolve, making it easier to record ...
