Watched Blazing Saddles again for the first time in several years and was suddenly inspired to find out "where are they now". Used imdb.com ... and wish I hadnt. Four or five of the main and very memorable actors have died over the last ten years, succumbing to various forms of the Big C, many of them only in their 50's. Found that for some reason inordinately depressing .... to have watched them in one of the greatest comedies of all times .. and to know that they passed away before they had had their full time on earth seems somehow unfair ... wish I'd just enjoyed the film and left it at that. :(

Does that mean we should all beware of beans? Passing wind makes you pass away? :sad:
