Don is the first one in the car and does most of the narrating.
Nick Tate - used to be a regular on SPACE 1999 and was recently in a 1st season episoide of "LOST"
The voice on the phone that Don blows off - was his main East Coast competition, sometimes referred to as the "East Coast Voice of God".

Thanks for that, Ed.
This will be a generational change in the way movie promos sound...
