Don LaFontaine, Croaky Trailer Voiceover Man, Is Quite Dead
Is your voice so husky, growling and croaky that it borders on the emphysemic? It is? Great - Hollywood's got an opening for you. That's because Don LaFontaine has died. You know Don LaFontaine - he's the man who has done the voiceover for every single movie trailer in the history of time. The man with the voice so intimidatingly authoritative that if he slipped the phrase 'now take off your trousers' into a trailer, cinemas everywhere would end up full of shivering confused people in their knickers. Yeah, him. He's dead. It's being reported that Don LaFontaine died of complications arising from pneumonia, but let's hope he hasn't gone to heaven. Chances are his voice would have made God's sound weedy and effeminate in comparison, and we hear that God gets really quite vengeful when he thinks someone's got a bigger willy than him.
