Computer sound animation was used during the making of Chewbacca's voice. This software is often used in movies that require creatures such as Wookiee's.

I'm not sure if they used a specific one or if George Lucas used one of his own.

For the original 1977 movie, Ben Burt produced the sound of laser fire by recording the sound of a hammer striking one of those long heavy wires that some streetlights have to anchor them to the ground. This basic sound was then processed slightly with synthesizers to produce the final sound.

Since Vader had to be on certain machines in his suit just to stay alive, his breathing sound is created due to him breathing through a machine. Anyone who breathes through a machine will have a mechanical-like sound to their breathing

By hitting a metal slinky with a pen/pencil. If you have a metal slinky at home, hang it down your stairwell, so its falling to the ground. Then, take a pen or pencil (preferably a pencil - the metal part between the eraser and the actual pencil) and it the slinky lightly. You will hear a faint sound of the lightsaber.

Chewbacca's voice was created by the original films' sound designer, Ben Burtt, from a mix of recordings of walruses, lions, camels, bears, rabbits, tigers and badgers in Burtt's personal library. The individual recordings were mixed at different ratios for Chewbacca's different utterances. One of the most prominent elements in the voice was a black bear named Tarik, from Happy Hollow Zoo in San Jose, California.

The term "better" is subjective. If by "better" you mean was Twilight more entertaining than the Star Wars movies, the answer would have to be no. The Star Warsfranchise has grossed by far greater returns than Twilight,proving that more people have seen the Star Wars movies and continue to watch the Star Wars movies than Twilight. If by better you mean was Twilight better produced, directed, and acted than the Star Wars movies, then no.
