Ok, I know that XPT has been more about lulz than serious discussion since well...since the beginning really, but I would like to get familiar with the thoughts of the fellow pervs on recent change that has taken place in the porno land.

During the first decade of the 21th century, gonzo DVDs dominated the porn market. Sure, companies like Vivid and Wicked never stopped making new "features" but they were heavily "dumbed down" and "gonzoified" compared to the product these companies had been putting out in the golden era of storylines and "contract stars" and generally insignificant in comparison with the sheer volume of gonzo DVDs flooding the market, making millionaires out of talentless idiots such as Jules Jordan and John Stagliano. This dominance of gonzo was partially challenged by the emergence of internet reality porn (most notably bangbros) but that was not a real threat to the gonzo DVD market as it was mostly featured "unknown" amateur whores (as opposed to the "big names" gracing box covers of Elegant Angel releases) and thus appealed to customers that were not all that important for the gonzo market.

More recently however, the big players in the business have been hurting from the competition of countless illegal tube sites offering 1000s hours of pornography for free to the general public. Several companies collapsed altogether and those that survived has been gradually decreasing the number of DVD releases. At the same time Brazzers and other companies have been focusing on production of porn "vignettes" or even whole movies with storyline (most notably porn parodies) and don't seem to be hurting nearly as much as the gonzo producers.

As a result of this, the focus of many porn producers is shifting from gonzo to storyline. For example, Christian who makes most of the content for NA is now considering factors such as scene setup, dialogue and locations just as much as casting the right whore for the scene and choosing the positions that will look good on camera. Mike Quasar, the ZT director who used to claim that porn is just about providing the customer with a depiction of coitus to jerk off to is now "shooting mostly scripted stuff for the foreseeable future". Almost every company has recently released and/or is working on a parody of a popular mainstream movie or TV show. The stunt cocks and whores who work the most these days are often those who can "act"(which in porn often means that they are able to memorize a few lines and deliver them with occasional display of emotion that doesn't look completely out of place).

I think this change will result in a porn market that will be much different from the one we have known during the last 2 decades or so. Gonzo will not disappear altogether but it will become targeted to a very specific niches; there won't be many generic "teen" or "anal" gonzo movies. More and more releases will try to combine intense "real" sex from gonzo with some sort of storyline and production value that was typical for the "golden age" features. The porn jondras as we know them (anal, lesbian, DP, BJ, solo, IR) will not be as relevant in the future and we will see more movies containing several kinds of scenes according to the directors vision. Porn producers in the future will not be just guys with camera and connections but will have to be able to bring some kind of "added value" to the movie.

Agree? Disagree? Discuss!

Agreed ! Hopefully a return to the 70's type plots will happen. The lack of imagination [ and I don't mean in the sex acts ] has hurt porn in the past couple of decades going back to the late 80's. [ at least in my view ]

Bdm... between VA visits and whatever other shit you do with yourself that makes you a decent poster here, could you try and find the time to pm me a short message as to what Sallymander had in mind here?. On your time and all, I doubt it's important.

Something about the limp dicks of porn like pendulums swinging back in another direction I think. Gonzo like ex-lax through a goose [or Panzer] has run it's course necessitating more plot driven features and we [the consumers] will A-benefit ? or B- suffer ? There ya go. No PM needed.

By the way, I live 2 miles from VA. The state not the hospital. .....and , oh yeah, @ Lou / smegma breath !

I would like to believe this as I like the films from the 70s too, but unless the industry can move beyond parodies successfully this will die off as just a fad. A stop gap until they figure out how to make money from internet smut again.

its simple make a video that is filled with good scenes.not one or two youd love to jerk it to and the rest are all throwaway scenes youre gonna watch one once just to get your moneys worth.

fuck a plot.im trying to kick my socks off then get my rocks off.imagine if sin city had marv fucking the shit out of goldie and then blasting a wad on her face.or the yellow rat bastard kneading his dough while trying to get jalba to scream.now imagine each one of those scenes lasting 20 to 45 mins.are you really gonna sit there and watch the whole fucking thing in one sitting.

wake up dickheads.its porn.people watch it to while they watch or or even .the time for plotting is over its time for .start cranking out all titfucking videos and other niches that arent being met.most movies in theatres arent worth watching.even for free on the computer.stick to what you know.

Did it really take all that drama to make your point ? No one is saying that type of porn will go away. [at least not me] But, at least there does seem to be a shift away from this stuff. I've been watching since the 8 mm days and it seems to swing back and forth. Whatever is selling is the bottom line I guess.

well whatever.we need more of this



and less



im glad i havent had the misfortune of seeing that twink in a scene for more than 3 years.also lets have less interacial.theres other kinds of vids you can watch if youre that fixated on big black cocks.just my opinion.
