I have clicked my laser pointer thousands of times, and the laser is just silent. No pew at all. So why? Stupidest special effect ever invented.

I used to work with Russians and was amused to learn that they do not call the sound of an explosion "BOOM" like we do. To them it is "BIMPS".

perhaps you missed the spread of photons in that image...and I THINK every time a photon was fired it made a pew pew pew (ish) sound. So many there is some cross-over because they were usually firing phasers and photons at the same time...
