MF DOOM[edit]
That's That! Rap song has got it
Director Usage[edit]
Citation #7 does not state that Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Rings uses the Wilhelm scream.
Furthermore, why is there a need to list Jackson and Lucas' movies if the statement is in almost all of their movies?
Also, Joe Dante didn’t direct Spaceballs. I think they meant Innerspace (1987). I don’t know how all this works but wanted to point this out!
Sean Bean scream[edit]
That last sentence in "History" made me think about how should they record a Sean Bean scream.
Classic, but Appeared in Modern SpongeBob.[edit]
In case you didn't know, the SpongeBob SquarePants episode "Sportz?" from Season 10 marks the first appearance of this iconic sound. It's kinda crazy it wasn't used until 2017, considering the show first aired 18 years prior. 2603:7080:DC02:5FB5:9C9C:E310:D14D:BBC2 (talk) 11:30, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
Other sonic signatures, specifically, airhorns.[edit]
I did not know about the Wilhelm Scream until today, and will be entertainingly embarrassed by my previous ignorance, during repeats of the many things I have seen that I now know contain it. What I HAVE noticed, is a thing not mentioned here, or in the film-maker's signatures article: a certain blaring airhorn. Two blasts, one steady in pitch, the second with strong Doppler effect in passing. I've heard it often, and there seems to be a game in which makers of films and TV shows take this sound to ever more outlandish extremes of use. I expect Doctor Who to hold the title very comfortably for maybe 20 years following its use for the Slitheen spaceship's crash landing, but since then I've been hearing it so many times, exact in pitch and duration, every time, in shows both older and newer... I don't know its origins, but I hope that maybe someone reading this will be interested enough in it to write an article to rival the Wilhelm Scream. It deserves it! 81.187.19.110 (talk) 21:40, 24 February 2024 (UTC)
List of examples seems trivial[edit]
I can see on this article that there is a long list of examples of where the Wilhelm scream was used. This seems too trivial for a Wikipedia article. I ask, because the Running gag Wikipedia article had a list like this but was taken down: Should we delete the section? Waylon (was) (here) 17:14, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
- I'm talking specifically about the "Uses" section. The history, which has Star Wars and some other films should be left in. Waylon (was) (here) 17:21, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
