Last night's dream was that the Chewbacca costume from Star Wars was far too complex for one person. As a result Chewie's actor was actually two people, one little one sitting on the shoulders of the other.

This became relevant when my wife sat me down and told me her dad, she'd just learned, was not who she'd always thought it was but the little person who'd been the head and neck of Chewbacca. She found this out when she got invited to Comic Con to appear at the 'illegitimate children of sci-fi stars' panel and autograph signing.

So Chewbacca's people doesn't actually make those noises... it's the fact that Master-Blaster is inside the costume and Blaster is making the sound-effects trying to get out of the suit... either way that's what I'll be thinking the next time I watch Star Wars ;)
