Nope - there are still numerous films in production and pretty widespread use. I suspect Tri-X will be one of the last to be discontinued due to its near cult-like following.
@vash - it is a Voigtlander R3A which is an M-mount rangefinder made in Japan by Cosina (as are the current Zeiss bodies and lenses). Very nice body for about 20% of the cost of a new Leica M7. They also make some innovative high-performance lenses like the ultra-wide 15mm shown in that pic. The digital Leica M8 is huge bucks and from what I have read, is definitely not without some naysayers.
