    Another entertainment giant...

    ...has passed.

    This guy is legend. Though you may not recognize the name, you know the voice.

    Don "The Movie Voice Guy" LaFontaine

    "The legendary movie voice guy known as Don LaFontaine passed away on Monday at the age of 68. Entertainment Tonight is reporting that LaFontaine passed away of complications from Pneumothorax, a condition that is the result of a collapsed lung. Why am I writing this tribute to Don? Because even though you might not know it, Don is the voice that you recognize from nearly every last movie trailer and every last movie voiceover. He's got that deep, thrilling voice that you'll instantly recognize the moment you hear it. He may never have been seen in any actual movies, but to me, he has been and always will be the voice of movies and movie trailers. Don and his voice will most certainly never be forgotten."...

    Sad..... a voice we all knew...... he was on some car insurance commercial recently. The one where they get celebrities to help describe what happened in someone's accident...

    Without his amazing voice?

    How is that possible?
