This is why I’m reading these old issues really, to be reminded of where technology was at various points in the history of film and television. Whenever anyone says that a piece of technology can’t do something it’s always yet. #empireread #dec1996

The A-Z of Hollywood piece is largely superfluous to anyone who’s read a book but does include this handy guide to actor salaries in the mid-90s. Are they still this high? #empireread #dec1996

Thirty years later, this answer is wrong in every respect, largely because those special effects are so good they’ve stood the test of time. And Jaws was never about the shark. #empireread #dec1996

This is a very busy issue, 160 pages, three of which are devoted to testing whether they make films like they used to by showing various generations of people old and new classics to see what happens. Everyone reverts to type. #empireread #dec1996

There’s a lengthy interview with Richard Stanley about the making of The Island of Dr Moreau which he was infamously fired from and then returned to sneaking back into set in a monster costume. I don’t remember seeing this in the documentary about it. #empireread #dec1996

I love the film, by the way and it’s probably one of Geena Davis’s best performances. But every time an action film is released with a high profile female actor it’s treated as a novelty. #empireread #dec1996

This was 1996 and we’re still having to deal with this in 2024. The opening question is disgusting and seemingly the only way to have a female action hero is to make her a housewife with amnesia. #empireread #dec1996

CZJ is from Swansea but that would ruin whatever it you’re doing here. Also why not just say John Leslie? The rest of the piece makes reference to Darling Buds a lot. Jeez. #empireread #dec1996
