''Empire'' is a British film magazine published monthly by Bauer Consumer Media of Hamburg based Bauer Media Group. From the first issue in July 1989, the magazine was edited by Barry McIlheney and published by Emap. Bauer purchased Emap Consumer Media in early 2008. It is the biggest selling film magazine in the United Kingdom and is also published in the United States, Australia, Turkey, Russia, and Portugal. ''Empire'' organises the annual Empire Awards which were sponsored by Sony Ericsson, and from 2009 sponsored by Jameson.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Jameson Empire Awards 2009 website )〕 The awards are voted for by readers of the magazine. ==Regular features== ''Empire'' is populist in both approach and coverage. It reviews both mainstream films and art films, but feature articles concentrate on the former. As well as film news, previews and reviews, ''Empire'' has some other regular features. Each issue (with the exception of issues 108–113) features a ''Classic Scene'', a transcript from a notable film scene. The first such classic scene to be featured was the "I could have been a contender" scene from ''On the Waterfront''. The regular ''Top 10'' feature lists ''Empire''s choice of the top ten examples of something film-related. For example, ''10 Best Chase Scenes'' or ''10 Best Movie Gags in The Simpsons''. The ''Re.View'' section covers Blu-ray and DVD news and releases. ''Kim Newman's Movie Dungeon'' is a regular feature in the ''Re.View'' section, in which critic Kim Newman reviews the most obscure releases, mostly low budget horror movies. ''How much Is Pint of Milk'' presents celebrities' answers to silly or unusual questions, including the question "How much is a pint of milk?" This is intended as a guide to the chosen celebrity's contact with reality, and as such can be more informative than a direct interview by reporting some surprising responses. Each magazine includes a "Spine Quote", in which a relatively challenging quote is printed on the spine of the magazine. There are usually some obvious and obscure links from the quote to the main features of that month's edition. Readers are invited to identify the film source and the links to win a prize. ''Celebrity Mastermind'' is another regular in which a celebrity is given questions about the films they were in or they directed. Celebrities range from Quentin Tarantino and Christopher Lee (who are at the top of the scoreboard) to John Carpenter and Michael Keaton (who are at the bottom of the scoreboard). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Empire (film magazine)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
