Empire has been off the boil for ages, sadly. Combination of the dumbing down of mainstream cinema and the magazine's pursuit of articles for huge films that are months, sometimes years away from release. Total Film is the same. It's such a shame because both used to be great and I'd read them cover to cover. I've subscribed to both for years and have read them both since issue 1 and 2, respectively. They get a cursory glance through now and not much else. Prefer to spend the time reading books instead.
