True, but they're now making more Westerns. Must be the Bush effect. Although there is a gay cowboy movie coming out.
I've been reading novels for years where people talk about how sexy and masculine John Wayne is. I'm reading a novel right now -- and this is the reason we watched a movie in class -- where a First Nations man is obsessed with John Wayne, and thinks he's incredibly cool.
When I saw it, I thought, "If this man wasn't making Westerns, he'd be selling used cars." He's angry and he's ugly and he's boring, and I couldn't imagine actually watching one of his movies for fun.
Drowning in marmalade doesn't actually sound like a worst way to go, if you have to go. Better than drowning in molasses, as happened to 21 people in Boston the Great Molasses Flood of 1919 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Boston_Molasses_Disaster).
