[spexya]

NERD!!!

R.I.P Don

[shorthubbard2]

lol the biggest of the biggest but seriously Rest In Peace Don LaFontaine

[MrTemoeri]

Rip don :(

[Mr1deepuntilidie]

shut up pee-on

[Shizzzzo]

Pablo Francisco

[MittinsMctwist]

You kid ur fuxking gay why waste ur time making a gay video uu should die

[JocaBrate94]

R.I.P

[EseWonder]

its your fault he died for wondering who's gonna take his place!

RIP Don LaFontaine

[lebbing64]

"As if the almighty himself , is commanding us, to buy a ticket "

RIP Don.

Pablo Francisco Took Over, When He Mastered The Voice

[curzyman]

Hey Eric. Pete Sampras called.  He said he wants his 1990 look back...

[MacJaxonManOfAction]

"And the winner of the 2010 "Saucer of Milk" awards for the bitchiest comment goes to...curzyman!"

BTW I'm not dissing you, I found your comment both hilarious and very true ;-)

[JoeB0y16]

Sad thing aout it is that legendary voice over artist John Leader retired on the same day he died.

[cartoonlover228]

i want everyone to stop hating the world is suppose to be a world of peace!erickwithnok is awesome!!!!!

[TheSunmanho]

you are sooo ugly.

please kill yourself.

[Sth3ll]

You're so full of shit. 2 wasted minutes that could have been better used as a memorial.

[poochymotcha]

u are deffinatly a retard u act like u know him u shouldnt be able to even say his name ur some idian negger

[derikeman]

you suck dude, sorry

[ronny221988]

dude, if i wanted to watch the news, ill just go switch on CNN, not the "where-da-hell-did-my-sad-ass-­life-part" channel! Fuck, man!

[wh0sane]

lol exactly, and he chatted on after about a load of crap, stfu

[23RYDADDY23]

RIP "The Don"

[speedsociety]

look for "Redd Pepper Fifth Gear" on youtube, he can replace him.

[oldblubblub]

I don't think Pablo Francisco could be as much of a legend as Don LaFontaine. He does a good impersonasion, but he wouldn't be a true once in an eternity type voice like Don's.

[bigranger16]

i know his daughter

[letsalleatplums]

I know them too. They're in my theater group.

[Leviticus321]

pablo francisco could take his place i suppose

[AhhhTube]

I'm so sorry to hear this...So young! thanks for posting this...God Keep him

[shadow0reviewer]

while this is sad as he is one of the most iconic voices of our time along with james earl jones I can't help but think it won't be much of a change because realistically now days most movies aren't really narrated but just have clips of the movie meshed together or sometimes several clips from the movie with 1 longer quote from the movie playing over it.

[ZachValkyrie]

YOU KILLED THE VOICE OF GOD!!!!!

[graham13125]

Noone will ever sound as good as Don, there are many many people who attempt to copy him but they can only do one version of the voice. Don could do an infinite amount.

[Blackhammer95]

i agree he was a legend

[DORYA11]

HE'S DEAD?! WTF!

[slatteman]

pablo francisco would be the one to do it

[XxImPulse16xX]

yea true

[deanoeldo]

i just fiound out today that LaFontaine is no longer with us, he was quite literally an inspiration to me, as voice acting is some i like to do , and finding out he has passed away has shocked me deeply, R.I.P. Don LaFontaine

But i must say i was totally speechless when i heard Pablo Fransisco, he sounds almost like Don, ideniticle almost. that could be a possilbe replacement, although no -one will ever still be like the true legend himself.

[eimanpower]

Pablo Francisco can to it i think

[oldblubblub]

Will there ever be a replacement for LaFontaine? I think nobody could replace him. Don is has a voice that can only be heard once in an eternity.

[brendawgy]

i deffinately agree that pablo francisco can very easily fill don lafontain's shoes in doing the movie voice overs.

[Smithereen1]

Pablo Francisco could do it.

[marktaylor0001]

melissa disney could easily take over....she has the hottest voice EVER

[91307boys]

The new voice that sounds the same as Don is Johnny Ventura. I heard he has been in the radio biz for 10 years and now breaking into VO work. I also heard that Don was a huge idol of his and th reason for breaking onto VO's. Can't wait to hear him.

[gurra9]

I think Tom Waits could do a good job. Not good at speaking like him but it's very distinct and I think it would fit well in any genre

[usewashroom]

Funny that his last trailer he promoted was Hamlet 2

Lets hope Sexy Jesus is good to him in heaven

[FlyingTomato3000]

pablo fransisco

[llaformer]

pablo fransisco

[MishaRussia]

pablo francisco !!!!!!!!!!!!

[OliphantRecords]

Keith Monahan does a slighty deeper voice but still no don but hes pretty close

[m0yb0y88]

whilem scream!

[ChristophoclesX]

You killed him with your mind, you bastard!

Seriously, though RIP mr. LaFontaine.

[meepfeet]

@ChristophoclesX Firefly refrence? :3

[LonewolfSaichi]

He will be missed...

[Julehjelper]

Yea, they can use Pablo Francisco i guess, but it's sad that Don LaFontaine passed away

:(

[bankaimaniac]

they could always use the comedian Pabl Francisco...not jokng seriously, search him up on youtube

[TVBLostHeroes]

The guy who does Optimus Prime has a really deep voice. He could do it. I forgot his name though...I think it's Peter Cullen...not sure..

[qsefth66]

but nobody can be as good as Non LaFontaine

[TVBLostHeroes]

Yea that's true. Is he really the only one that did all the previews of every movie or just certain ones?

[jordaninthisworld]

@TVBLostHeroes: He used to do almost all of them, but the last several years there were others starting to do a lot more. A few have very similar styles to him.

[vgmfreak67]

R.I.P Don LaFontaine

[leanna1995a]

Jesus. I had no idea Don LaFontaine died. This is HORRIBLE! There will never be another :'[ R.I.P Don LaFontaine

[91307boys]

Hey Erick. There is a guy living in Los Angeles that sounds exactly like him. He is now breaking into the VO biz. However, there will only be one Godfather of VO's. Don Lafontaine.

[kosmasdan]

hey... mabyetay zonday from chocolate rain song can make the voices in the cinema now!!!

(sad to listen about Don) :(

[ilovetyler11]

he was my cousin! i miss him so much! and there will never be anyone like him he was an awesome guy! his house is really cool too!

love you lots cous!

~Katie LaFontaine

[LughOnG]

RIP T.T

[soontobesize12]

yea i know the feeling! i was thinking of bernie mac about a week before he died! rip to the best

[maxdecimus88]

There will never be another Don La Fontaine, ever. ErickWithNoK, Don himself is gone, but his voice will definatelty live on.

Don will continue to send chills down peoples backs in the year 2008 or 10008. (I am guessing at the year as i do not have visionary sense) Dons' voice will live on :-)

A great tribute, to Don (as his friends would have called him)

Pablo Francisco?... good, but no way.

go to first line >> There will never be another Don La Fontaine, ever.

[FunkerPunkerJunker]

rip don!

all those saying that pablo francisco should replace him are quite wrong.. he needs to change his voice heavily in order to recreate don's voice. don just needed to accent the words right.. it's not the same!

[amgshowzforshow]

oh wow didnt know this...and its almost december.....damn.......

[mephakistavi]

Why? God Why? If i could shoot the messenger I would.

R.I.P. DON LAFONTAINE

[pj8guy]

Wow really???

WHO IS GOING TO BE DOING THE MOVIE TRAILERS!!!

[MLoer]

pablo francisco x)

[LughOnG]

Absolutely RIGHT XD

[meeperator]

The worst thing about it, is that he died on my birthday. RIP Don, you will be greatly missed by millions, although very few of them knew who you were aside from "The movie trailer man." Once again, you will be missed, Rest in peace.

[thelycandraven]

rip...a legend

[alixxmcr94]

oh that sucks...

that guy had the best movie commercial voice!! xD

[skyekins18]

hi, my name is skye lafontaine and im don's middle daughter..

just to answer your questions, there will be no one replacing my dad, they are going to start changing trailers so they wont have to use voice over guys anymore...they are changing it in honor of dad

[GreekFighter82]

Pable Fransisco, can make the exact same voice..

pablo should replace him!

[djphilthis]

people said i sound allot like don lafontain

[Feenatin]

Pable Fransisco, can make the exact same voice,

and a few other amazing voices too,

[Fooray]

the guy who does the voice for tigger is also pretty big on the movie trailers.

[raduslam20]

of course pablo francisco !! :)

[DaJazzBass]

There will be a difference.

No one will ever even compare to Don.

[TheLogicJunkie]

Very nice video. Thanks for doing it.

[itsmeson98]

Don LaFontaine died last month!?!?!?thats fuckin sad and bogus

[darkangel7r]

Too bad he died..thats just so sad.

That trailer voice was amazing.

Pablo Fransisco should be the next trailer voice-over person!! :)

[wellshii]

haha yea im thinking the same .lol

[pegbars]

Oh, come on... Pablo Francisco does an impersonation, and it sounds as such. FWIW, there are about 8 others who regularly do trailer vo's - it wasn't just Don. Although, he was the most well-known.

[BillyCrombie]

Pablo Francisco

[EtanMeyler]

+1 ! best impersonator

[narimx]

I Soo Agree

PABLO FRANCISCO !

=)

[chrisgurl30]

he has the perfect voice to do the intro for saw v and vi.

[brusegadi55]

I thought about him dying right before watching your video... Try to be more sensitive though, he was more than a voice.

[camorico183]

Mother Fucker. Damn. Why did this guy have to die? I didn't even let him do me. I mean, do his voice on me. I mean, Do his voice with me. Damn, do his voice ........aaahh calling me? Whatever. You know what I mean. "In a world, where Camorico was the richest motherfucker alive. Where he had money like sand. Camorico to the world. Camorico. OOooo baby. Took many men's girls. He is one crazy motherfucker. Camorico."

[wudup720]

I CAN IMAGINE HIM SAYING THAT XDDDDD

[Collette90coco]

hmm very rude....

[SuketoKetchi]

He was the voice of a generation.

[SpitsBeaTz]

It's really sad to lose such a legendary voice. He, Mr Don, has my upmost respect.

Fantabulous guy. Movie trailers ain't any trailer without such voices..

[fizzo94]

pablo francisco sounds like him

[SpitsBeaTz]

Frank too haha.

[DaleOfHope]

anthonyr1 is better than pabalo... by a longshot

[webman021]

anthonyr1 is a nobody and he is just a kid with a low voice now pabalo is famous and has a better chance at going in to the voice over biz and this anthonyr1 that i never heard of untill i read this reply and was forced to see who this guy is so there.....

[webman021]

pabalo fransisco

[DaleOfHope]

anthonyr1

[ytgonzo51]

Pablo Francisco is a perfect shoe-in. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery and in Francisco, LaFontaine is justly honored.

[DaleOfHope]

anthonyr1 is better than pabalo

[ytgonzo51]

Who is anthonyr1?

[SpraxIAKS]

They have to look. Don LaFontaine's mark has been left.

[Skibbaaa]

Rest in Peace, Don!

You Will be missed :(

[Cryptonitt]

thnx for the clip. R.I.P Don LaFontaine

[jvasquez311]

damn i remeber his voice since when i was little

[nicademas7779]

PABLO CAN DO HIS JOB HE GOT THE VOICE.

[911violentagro]

Dude Pablo Francisco can totally do that voice perfectly. just look up one of his parodys.

[Jain123123123]

Pablo Francisco

[hobohacker2242]

umm stop thinking u mite kill someone else

[5hor73rm]

It's a sad topic, but your comment made me laugh!

[NaxNax96]

He freaking made me laugh too! Can you imagine a movie with a theme like that? "In a world where Erik's thoughts were lethal, Hoho Hacker said: 'Stop thinking, you might kill someone else!' " xD

[mastersbx3]

pablo francisco could do it...no long ting !!!

[Babythug00]

where are ya from?!

[azninvazn87]

maybe that guy that does the voice of mufasa on lion king:p at least some people will recognize him from that geiko commercial:p rip!

[partyguy820]

that was on my birthday

[scott93257]

Rodney Saulsberry

[BLAKPEARL69]

did he really? omg. rip.

[OyTaeMo]

Fuck off. not the hell of your business. sissy

[Jeffo787]

how did don die?

[Irnoltwes]

collapsed lung. Poor guy.

RIP Don.

[Cadwaladr]

Ben Patrick Johnson is pretty good.

[XjeraldX]

OMG NO....

[NorthernReaches]

Beau Weaver can do it.

[WarTortuga]

He's not as good, nobody will ever be as good.

[Irnoltwes]

I second that.

[modsleix6]

Voiceover master extraordinaire... R.I.P....

[impRZA]

I was so said when i heard in the news.. Rest In Peace Don, we miss you very much!!

[Brenf86]

Red Pepper will likely take over

[bluewarrior54]

man im gonna miss Don

[sexhaie]

DDDDDX............NO!.....

[ThePavlos]

R.I.P Don ,we will miss you

[ZEROEVILDARKCOOL]

REST IN PEACE DON LAFONTAINE

[Do0f19]

Damn you. You thought what would happen if he died and now it happened. Thanks a lot it is all your fault.JK. Anyway Rest In Peace Don you had the best voice ever.

P.S. How many girls do you think he got with that voice?

[morbels]

How many he DIDN'T get?

[Do0f19]

For all we know me and you are related. He could be our father.

[areeyafan]

Oh ya RIP Don you rocked

[areeyafan]

Peter Cullen could always fill in but I believe he is busy at the moment.

[Teenfaze]

He was a VO legend and the entire VO community is most likely saddened. I have worked with him and have been to his fantastic Xmas party. We've lost one of our best.

:(

[falonhawk]

damnit as soon as i get his email address he passes away

[lightningbuster]

That sucks now all the new movie trailors are gonna sucks.

[bonk18bonk]

hey! who is this Joking Dickhead? can I meet him?

lol relax you cry babies, go

fight like little girls on

another video.

[TheDarkFalcon]

Seriously i hate it when people post shit like this crappy video. People search Don LaFontaine to find videos of HIM not sum retard saying he died. "I HAVE SOME BAD NEWS FOR YOU GUYS" oh wow i cant guess what it is from the title of your video, PLUS ohhh wow a load of people saying rip (who ever died) on youtube is just annoying, wow ur sad he died, so am i, lets make a video saying he died cus that some how helps something doesnt it?

[ErickWithNoK]

I hate when people spend time writing a lengthy comment on a video they didn't like.

Nah I don't HATE them, it's just the internet.

[zeldakix17]

wow! you know your shit.

[mymusicvideos1991]

so shocked right now, found out of wikipedia a few minutes ago

[DepthPersuasion]

Deeply Saddened.

Thanks for the Post.

DP

[Paul88732592]

yeah, i just found a bunch of his interviews and life story like last month.

[Mrmorozov987]

I never really knew who this guy was. The only time I remember hearing his voice was on a trailer for 'The Simpsons Movie', and he was awesome! EYEIH (Enjoy your Eternity in Heaven...)

[MEHOLE]

'His voice was illl'

Hence why he died.

[PRNeneChulo]

I have always wanted to do voice overs, just like he did, RIP Don.

[hybridfury]

Man, no movie trailer or any trailer for that matter will be the same without Don LaFontaine... Even if they do find another guy to take his place, he STILL ain't no Don LaFontaine. He maybe gone, but his legendary voice will live on. R.I.P. Don LaFontaine.

[Mumanate]

I believe Pablo Francisco will be his replacement.

[jamesinho]

your a pretentious dick

[jezzaforever123]

what about my a pretentious dick?

[jamesinho]

i didn't say anything about your dick, quite frankly the contents of your pants are of no concern to me.

i was calling cockknockererickwithnok a pretentious dick...because he's a pretentious dick. i wonder did he care more about hearing that the don died or his new post he got an opportunity to do...dickhead.

if he gets aids, im not gonna cry

[jezzaforever123]

lol,

you said "your a pretentious dick"

not "you're a pretentious dick"

learn your fucking grammar, dickhead.

[jamesinho]

its youtube, are you my fucking teacher,ya? get a hobby fucktard and mind your business, no one was talking to you.

PS, if we are talking about grammar, you know 'lol' isn't a word ya, its just an internet abreviation thats generally accepted as internet speak, much like 'your' or 'ur' is a phonetic spelling of ' you're '

i hope you get aids so you don't waste anyone elses time with frivolous observations

[jezzaforever123]

give up mate :P

you're* a complete dickhead.

but i still love you

[ErickWithNoK]

I guess I missed the day when AIDS became something to joke about.

[jamesinho]

who said i was joking dickhead?

Im surprised you could even read the message from your high horse mr. oh, look my life is so shit im gonna feign interest in don lafontaines death just so i can post an internet video expressing my fake sympathy, you fucking asshole.

your main concern is whos gonna replace him, not his death you transparent media whore wannabe, you strike me as the type of person who'd wanna get on big brother or some other show full of conceited assholes... hope you get aids

[jamesinho]

why can't you be more like a sterotypical aussie and be more laid back and passive?

like rolf harris

[ianonline]

James seems to believe illiteracy is good if everyone else does it. In reality, it makes being unintelligent more acceptable so more people are to susceptible scams and losing their money.

[ssj4ejin]

I believe there were more than him that did the voice overs.  Although he was the main guy everyone knows

[cobra8529]

Yay that would be cool if he had a son. That is sad he died though. :(
