Utter silence.
When Vice Admiral Holdo used the last remaining Resistance cruiser to slice Supreme Leader Snoke's warship in two, did your entire theater collectively gasp? Or did someone stand up and shout "The sound is broken!" at the movie theater gods?
Apparently, the latter scenario has happened often enough to prompt a posted warning for moviegoers: Yes, the sound cuts out at one point. No, it's not a technical issue.
The scene occurs late in The Last Jedi. The First Order has almost snuffed out the last of an escaping wing of Resistance transports, so Holdo (played by Laura Dern) cooks up an inventive maneuver: She'll point the large decoy cruiser she's piloting directly at the pursuing First Order flagship and fire up the hyperdrive, wreaking havoc on the enemy warship and sacrificing herself in the process.
She pulls it off and, in a breathtaking sequence of shots, we see Holdo's cruiser strike a fiery path of devastation across Snoke's wedge-shaped ship. And, in an artful twist, director Rian Johnson elected to have the sequence play out in silence. The enormity of Holdo's sacrifice and the blow it deals to her enemy is conveyed entirely via images. No words, no music, no sound effects.
Unfortunately, the creative decision caused enough confusion among AMC moviegoers that signs were posted in two theaters, according to a spokesperson. It's not clear who posted the signs, and they've since been removed, but actor Paul Scheer shared a look at one in a photo posted to Facebook.
"The Last Jedicontains a sequence at approximately 1 hour and 52 minutes into the movie in which ALL sound stops for about 10 seconds," the sign reads. "While the images continue to play on the screen you will hear nothing. This is intentionally done by the director for creative effect."
