Just curious, about what people think concerning the whole "artcore" (whatever that REALLY is) movement. Who IS THE "grand master", Ninn or Blake, or possibly someone else?

Ninn's stuff tends towards the really odd sometimes and a bit harsh from time to time.

Blake's stuff is hardcore (explicit) shot with softcore production values which I think is what we're talking about?

I like a bit of luxury with my smut.

I expect some dissenting opinions to follow in this forum though...

Both...but if you're forcing me to pick, I'll plump for Ninn.

Yeah, I'm leaning a bit more toward Ninn over Blake (both kick ass at what they do, but Ninn has that lil something extra). Rumor once had it that Michael Ninn was actually mainstreamer, Zalman King (Red Shoe Diaries). I don't know, personally, but very interesting if so.

Thanks for the opinions.
