I’m sure not many Doctor Who fans read my blog…
…but for the one I know at least, he should appreciate this. Now only if he would get back from England and the Doctor Who exhibit they have. And for those who are interested, it is a lovely video of a Dalek family.

One of the great voice actors has left us…
…ending in era in movie history.
Some of you may, and some of you may not recognize the picture of Don LaFontaine. But I can assure that most of you would recognize his voice if you heard it. Most commonly known for starting his trailer voice overs with “in a world…”, the 68 year old man passed away Labor Day due to complications from a pneumothorax. In total, he has provided his baritone voice on almost 5,000 trailers and 350,000 commercials. Just a few of the trailer spots he voiced are: The Terminator, Terminator 2, Cast Away, Fatal Attraction, Batman Returns, Chicken Run, Extreme Makeover Home Edition, Entertainment Tonight and many more. Most recently, I keep seeing the commercial for Geico where he plays a voice over actor.
It is a great loss to our popular culture, that is for certain. Farewell Don and I hope you find yourself “in a world” full of all the best things in life.
