I think future movie trailers should leave out the narration. It's been done to perfection by Don LaFontaine.

Really sorry to read this. The video clip of him at work was wonderful to watch. Having started out in radio, my Rog and I are always listening for "good" radio voices. LaFontaine's was incredible!

COndolences to his family and friends,

kat & Rog

Don LaFontaine, the voiceover king whose "In a world ..." phrase on movie trailers was much copied -- and much parodied -- has died, according to media reports. He was 68.
