Spinning this one off a mention in "XPT's 100 Ugliest Girls" from 2007.

My vote is for when "Vivid Contract Girl" became synonymous with performing the barest minimum of a sex act in a movie filled with "high-budget" tactics such as slow motion, Vaseline-smeared lenses, obscuring soundtracks, condoms, etc.

Other possibilities include:

Andrew Blake.
John Stagliano/Seymour Butts/"gonzo"/Max Hardcore
AIDS/HIV first identified.
The Internet.
The Meese Commission, and the ensuing Traci Lords firestorm.
Belladonna.

Ill go with when vivid caught on and the ultra-bright light, air brushed cover, boring to all hell, lame storyline ...sex scenes became a major title machine.

even the cheesy 70's story porn had character and some danger to it ..

When bukkake hit these shores. It's faggotry trying to pass itself off as machismo.

The first time a producer decided that lots of mucus was sexy.

When even the locations started looking shot out.

Porn has not jumped the shark. There is more fetishistic perversion then ever. I'm happy to be alive.

When anal became hohum.

The day Aurora dyed her hair

When Kiki D'Aire was brutally murdered by the Sports Swami.

Does anyone remember the Annabell Chong (sp?) 1000 man gang bang...I think it was 1994? That's about the time Burg gave up his porn habit and replaced it with a High Class Whore habit, contenting himself to sitting in front of these ladies and essentially saying, "Ummm why do you do this?" etc etc etc

When I found rapidshare. Now I can d/l porn all day long, every day, watching until my eyes bleed. I can now say, without hyperbole, that I have seen or know about all porn ever made.

^^^What's with the new name, Sponge Brain?

About two days after AC Cream ate the shark.

From day one...lol
Gonzo and old men!! Oh, when Jenna fucked up her face and went skinny!

Porn jumped the shark about the time that the Porn Star Clothing line came out, and Jenna Jameson became a pseudo-mainstream celebrity.

does anyone know the rationale in the lip implants?
i did a shoot couple of months ago with a girl from l.a. and it was almost comical..

i just imagined she was jessica rabbit and fought through it..

I am not sure porn had a shark to jump in the first place.

Different jondras, different sexes, different fetishes, and a mix of any of the above doesn't really give porn a direction.

Unless you consider porn is whatever gets you off, then I think it is still riding until it turns into shark fin soup.

Ok color me ignorant, but what the hell does Jump the Shark mean?

CLICKY

Thanks Jum

It must be a Euro-thing! I still have no clue. Does it mean that something (Tv show, porn, etc.), which was ok at first, has gone bad???

Here is the Wiki on jumping the shark.

Thanks.

When people started thinking that a DV or a DA scene wasn't gay

when almost any idiot with a camera starting making shit products that made it to market

when any whore lacking an education and fuck ability but at the same time possessing a clean HIV test could end up in movies

when any whore with 3 scenes under their belt is considered a pornstar......

Ahem? Tatty? A few post up, maybe? Posted by have2cit?

Forgive me. I've been in an alcoholic haze since Saturday...
