Actually, that's what I was referring to when I said his 15 minutes of fame, I'd bet a lot of people didn't know that was even a natural voice doing that V.O... I sure didn't! :buggedout:

I was just wondering which trailer or trailers he actually used the "In a world..." intro in.

You know, I just listened to half a dozen LaFontaine trailers and he didn't say "in a world" in any of them.  Karma to anyone who can actually locate a trailer with him saying "In a world where..."

This video is really amazing. Quite a showcase of voice talent. And Don does say "in a world."

Fun video... but I still want to find an actual movie trailer where Don says "In a world where... one man..."
