@flyingsaceur @jalefkowit this was on constant rotation at the place I worked 20 years ago
My nervous system is still tuned to that voice.
“Donald LeRoy LaFontaine (August 26, 1940 – September 1, 2008) was an American voice actor who recorded more than 5,000 film trailers and hundreds of thousands of television advertisements, network promotions, and video game trailers over four decades.
“He became identified with the phrase ‘In a world ...’, used in so many movie trailers that it became a humorous catchphrase. Widely known in the film industry, the man whose nicknames included ‘Thunder Throat’, ‘The Voice of God’ and ‘The King of Movie Trailers’, became known to a wider audience in the U.S. through commercials for GEICO insurance and the Mega Millions lottery game.”
If “trailer guy voice” means nothing to you, once upon a time there was a guy named Don LaFontaine who did the voiceover on basically every single movie trailer
