when Hollywood portrays an explosion in space complete with thunderous booms, is yelling, “There’s no sound in space!!

I think that might depend upon how close you were to the explosion. The expanding gas particles of the exploded object just might impinge upon your hull before they dissipate and result in a discernible noise, perhaps a loud one. After all, the dissipation of the gas into the vacuum can be in the form of a dense wave front.

Vat you tink abot dat?

LOL, yes, I suppose so, I guess what I object to is the stand off CG shots of some huge alien craft exploding, complete with Dolby-enabled, bone-shaking explosion...
