In a World ...

Sad to report that the "movie voice guy" - whom we all recall from his signature "In a world ..." phrase - has died. Usually I don't much care to remark on celebrity goings on but this is different. The man's voice was ubiquitous, so much so that I can't think of movie trailers without thinking of his voice, in the same way that every pack of tissues is Kleenex and photocopiers are Xerox machines. I offer up these two examples of homages to him, here (about 3:30 in) and here, and this example of his work, here.
