Humourless? They sent a writer to interview Frakes who’s never seen Star Trek. #empireread #jan1997

Was it a deliberate choice to have the floaty Dennis Hopper head looking at her breasts. #empireread #jan1997

Here’s an example of how the editorial tone has shifted. Back when Star Trek VI was released, the franchise was treated as this weird, niche cult for nerds. Now we have this classic shot of Kirk and Spock on the contents page. #empireread #jan1997

Morning. It’s 1997, we’re at the back end of the Thatcher/Major years and I’ve just started volunteering on the Public Monuments and Sculpture Association research project. #empireread #jan1997

The web in 1997. That would be a QR code now. #empireread #jan1997

New section. In bygone days people would write to a magazine if they had a vague memory of a film rather than just check the IMDb. #empireread #jan1997

What I always liked about Tine Out was that they reviewed a film based on whether it’s a good version of that sort of film rather then than trying to compare the unalike. #empireread #jan1997

We now know she was brought up in a cult which she wasn’t able to escape until she was 22: youtu.be/h_64VzYFefg?... #empireread #jan1997
Glenn Close was in a cult as a child

These adverts encapsulate fully the male toxicity of the mid to late 1990s. I’ve put a warning on it just in case. #empireread #jan1997

Strange reading an interview with Jared Leto in which he’s strait laced and kind of boring. This is just two years out from MSCL. #empireread #jan1997

Not a bad month at the pictures. Jingle All The Way was not well received on release but now it’s become part of the Christmas canon. #empireread #jan1997

In case you’re wondering what that UIP disclaimer is about, it’s this advert from the previous issue. #empireread #jan1997

Airframe did not go into production in 1997. Crichton wasn’t happy with any of the scripts and Disney pulled it from the production schedule. Crichton returned the $10m. #empireread #jan1997
