Customer Reviews
Let me entertain you!
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY is the ultimate guide to media. Be you fascinated with films,have a mojo for music,or vivacious for video games, it's great fun. The magazine does an excellent job covering upcoming movies, franchises, and doing lists. Instead of covering the usual celebrity gossip,it does reviews.
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY has a sense of humor. It doesn't take itself too seriously,like Film Comment. It's covered franchises like Harry Potter,Twilight,Lord of the Rings. It does special issues. That's entertainment!
Entertainment Weekly
I've been getting Entertainment Weekly for about 10 years, and I've pretty much liked it the entire time. For a while, they had a problem with spoiling plots, but that seems to have been addressed. This magazine keeps me informed about the pop culture that I don't have enough time to experience first hand.
recent changes have severly reduced the quality of EW
I had been subscribing to EW for about 3 to 4 years. I have just decided not to renew. Here is why and also why you should think about not purchasing EW. About 2 or 3 months ago, EW changed its design. The move was supposed to re-energize what has become ordinary and increase EW's appeal. What actually happened was that EW increased the font of the text and the size of some of the pictures in some sections. EW did not similarly increase the number of pages it dedicated to the same sections, however. Consequently, the book review section shrunk from about 20 or so reviews to around 7 or 8. The same thing happened to the music review section. EW essentially reduced its content and call it a refashioning of the magazine. Clever. So I wonder whether the re-styling was not really just an attempt to hide that EW decided not to cover music and books anymore and fired its staff (or the staff just left and EW didn't want to hire anyone else). In any event, the only reason I bought the magazine in the first place was for the reviews. If you are like me, then I suggest to look elsewhere. If all you care about is the first part of the magazine, i.e., whatever the studios are trying to sell to you at the moment, then this is the magazine for you.
GOOD FOR REVIEWS
I think this magazine is among the best of the entertainment genre. But I do agree with others who say it has a great deal of filler. I must admit when the magazine comes each week I quickly turn to the reviews and I think their reviews are excellent. I devour the new movies, television, dvd, music and book reviews and they help me plan what to see, watch and read. Very helpful. But I pay for the whole subscription for this small amount of the magazine. It is valuable to me though so I buy it.
I very rarely read the stories. I read more on entertainment stories on my computer on AOL. Even when the story is on a celebrity or subject I like I find the articles boring and slight. Also, over the past few issues they have changed their format and now the magazine is even less desirable to me. I think it will be my last year of subscribing.
Buy it HERE!
If you want this magazine, BUY IT HERE! I made the mistake of ordering it when I was at the check-out line at Best Buy. It got me a few free issues and then automatically billed me for the rest of the subscription. What I didn't realize was that it renewed at a six month subscription for $44.95!!! Can you believe that? $90 a year! When I found that out, I immediately canceled and am about to renew it through Amazon. A MUCH better deal.
