Don LaFontaine died today at the age of 68. He was the voice behind hundreds if not thousands of movie trailers. I'm going to watch a movie I received on SwapaDVD tonight, and I'm going to make it a point to watch to the trailers. I'm sure one of them will feature his distinctive voice. He was last seen in one of those memorable Geico commercials.

wow.. movie trailers won't be the same. I'm serious, I remember his voice from watching movies since I was little and always wondered why the voice was the same on each trailer. I wonder how much that job pays?? Thanx for posting.
