I think some readers might really enjoy “Boards of Canada”
They are experimental musicians that make ambient music that is largely mixed from samples of vintage NFB films. The theme is very nostalgic of watching CBC documentaries about nature, etc.

I’ve always wondered why T.V. remotes made a distinct clicking sound in the movies — and why the actor always has to aim carefully and press the button so hard as to make a slight motion — as if he were waving a magic wand. I’d like to add the backdraft sound effect that usually accompanies an explosion, also used on Doom 2.

Has anyone noticed when children are at play in movies they have the same laugh/giggle every time? Sometimes played twice in one scene. It also used to be a Windows 95 sound effect when you booted up your computer. Ive recently noticed the laugh in Ninja Turtles 3 (dont ask why i was watching that) and also in Only the Lonely with John Candy. Its always bugged me, i hear it everywhere!!

Very interesting. As someone with a keen ear also. I often wondered if these sound effcts were able to be found out and easily heard and the reason why they are overused. I also wonder about six-gun pistol or Winchester rifle shot sounds that are often heard in film pre-1960 in Black & White cowboy films. The gun shot sound sounds like…’Tar-shooter’. Now gunshots are all significantely different and often too recognizable.

I noticed that too, from the first GTA game to Dexter (the TV show).
They use it in just about every thing. The main part I hear sounds like the dispatcher saying “Mike-George-Teen” or “5-George-Teen”.
