ota_retired 6 Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 Don died Monday due to a blood clot in his lungs that caused one of his lungs to collapse. He was admitted to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in L.A. only a week before. If you don't know who this guy is, it doesn't matter because you've probably all heard his voice at some point (he was on Family Guy and a Geico commercial not too long ago). He was a highly sought-after voice over artist. He narrated many, many, MANY movie trailers and is known as "The Voiceover Master" and "The voice of movie trailers." We'll all miss you, Don Quote Link to post Share on other sites

wurpess 0 Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 In a world where a single man reigned over previews. Where the world could find peace and solace in the voice that would present their future entertainment. Things were good. . .until one day. . .tragedy hit. . .["And in other news, movie trailer voice-over man, Don LaFontaine has died."]. . . The world of movie trailers is about to cease to exist as we know it, unless someone can fill the gaping chasm his death has left. Until the day such a hero can be found, we will continue to mourn and remember the days when Don was the master of the movie trailer. We must always remember. . . Um, yeah. . .he'll definately be missed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
