    Hollywood and the world of movies has lost a great one! RIP Preview Guy

    All us men suffer in equal parts, it's our lot in life, and no man goes without a broken heart or a lost love. Like holding your dog as he takes his last breath and dies in your arms, it's a rite of passage. Unavoidable. And honestly, I can't imagine life without that depth of feeling.-Bierut

    In a world without Don Lafontaine, we are surely worse off.

    OMG!

    I can't believe it, I actually watched a doco about this guy not that long ago and thought him to be one the nicest men in Hollywood, oh dear how sad.

    Oh man, this completely ruined my day. What a downer. The guy was a legend and will truly be missed.

    All he wanted ... was to do voice over ... in a world ... of madness ...

    In my old office, we used to while away dead time by doing Don LaFontain impressions. It was shockingly fun.

    RIP, big guy.

    A great voice and quite funny too. I guess that Denny's cashier job opened up. Bummer. It is hard to imagine movie trailers without his voice. RIP Don.
