    In a world of movie trailers, Don LaFontaine was king

    Don passed away at the age of 68, movie trailers won't be the same ever again.

    RIP Don

            No doubt: he was the greatest movie announcer ever. I think his crowning achievement was his Geico Commercial: poked a little fun at his career, while helping a dramatize the subject.

              This one is not from Don, it's done by the other famous voice over guy, but it's still pretty damn funny:
