The man behind the movie voice


Posted: Nov 11, 2009

Don LaFontaine is that voice we all know so well.  He died awhile back (think within the past year or so), but I just found this and thought it to be quite interesting and wanted to share.  He sounds like he was a genuinely really nice man.

Anybody Else Watching The Voice?Jun 08, 2011
I started watching it in the beginning just because of Adam Levine, and I've found I'm loving it the way Americal Idol used to get me.  I love the banter between the coaches, though Christina gets a little too crude for me sometimes.  But I like her otherwise.  What do you think of the talent?  I voted for Frenchie Davis today. Nobody on Blake's team impressed me much.  I think Xenia's got a lot of potential, but she's obviously too young, and p ...

Who Do You Think Has The Most Beautiful VoiceDec 10, 2009

On The 47% Recording, Note The Little Sneer In Romney's VoiceSep 18, 2012
on that word, as if we are not all entitled to draw when needed from the programs WE pay into that we set up specifically for US.  Entitled and entitlement are not sneer words. They mean we paid for it and it's ours. But he's sneering anyway. Note that most safety net programs were created to keep people in temporary trouble from falling into a hole they can never climb out of. Getting sick. Losing a job. Losing all belongings in a natural disaster. Etc. Safety net. That's ...

This is a transcript of the video someone pieced together of Limbaugh’s diatribe, linked below.  For those trying to float the argument in defense of Lush by bemoaning misogynist libs in the media and demanding they “own up,” I offer the following observation, but first let me state categorically that misogyny in the media in any form, regardless of who said what, where, when and why, is unacceptable.  As for why some is tolerated as “free speech”  an ...

Does Your Child Go To Any Movie You Do?Nov 08, 2009
I went to the movies today, a new one that just came out about an overweight teenager from Harlem who was sexually abused by her father and mentally and physically abused by her mother. This movie was rated an R. Several years back it would have not had that lax of a rating. No prude here but the movie was completely filled with the most vile language I have heard in a movie but on top of that simulated rape scenes of the young teen with the father being the perpetrator. I saw many, many familie ...

Scariest Movie I Ever SawJul 19, 2011
The post is so far down below didn't think anyone would see it.  If you are looking for a good scary movie I highly suggest this one.  It's a creepy creepy haunted house in the woods type movie.  Scared me so much I had to pause it and get my DH because I was to scared to watch it alone.  Here is a trailer.  It's called The Abandoned. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SnLrJy3hYLI     ...

I do not need Mary Poppins or that sugary. Thought about Raiders because I loved the movie, read the reviews written by kids and the majority talked against the movie so back to first base. Any ideas? ...

Dean Koontz/Odd Thomas MovieJan 16, 2013
Spinoff of a thread in Politics. Does anyone read Dean Koontz? I *loved* him in the 80s, and even though he's become kind of formulaic, I still have a soft spot for him. I especially love the Odd Thomas series and I'm stoked about the upcoming movie. The casting is kind of (forgive me) odd, (Patton Oswalt as Big Ozzie? mmmkay) but I'm still shamelessly looking forward to it. I'd love to have seen James McAvoy as Odd, but I guess he's too old. ...
