I know yours was probably a passing comment, but I have a subscription to Empire and I have to say that it is not 'a mediocre magazine'. In fact, it's possibly the best film magazine out there (I have a subscription to it), especially for those who have a real passion for film. But as I said before, the poll results have nothing to do with the magazine itself, it was merely public opinion, and sadly we can't expect everyone to want to put Clint at #1 like the rest of us. Another recent poll of Sexiest Film Stars of all time put Keira Knightley at #1, which I don't really agree with, as it merely reflects the fact that she's currently flavour of the month (or year). But I don't buy Empire for any poll it might do (which isn't often to be honest) - I buy it for the great articles and the in-depth coverage of films. They have done cool articles on Clint/Clint's films in the past, too (I seem to remember a good one on Mystic River) so surely that's what's important.
