What is going on with Anabolic?

Anabolic used to be pretty much the only porn I would buy. Now they have a crop of whole new directors including Alexis Amore !!
Is directing that easy that Jessica Dee and Alexis Amore could do it. get signed to a directing deal when they self admittedly don't know much about directing.
Has anyone else noticed that Anabolic films aren't what they used to be. Nasty Nyphmos, Up Your Ass and Gangbang Girl used to be solid safe bet porn. No more kinky ways for girls to drink cum after a gangbang. They don't even take in the mouth like they use too.
Where did the directors that defined Anabolic go? Why did they go? I believe that owning your own titles really couldn't the reason so many left.

Another example of what's wrong at Anabolic: In this SNEAK PEEK OF UPCOMING ANABOLIC RELEASES half of their listed upcoming releases are comps, not new or even recent footage. I realize there's money in releasing comps. And, making half of your release comps may make sense (Vivid releases like 99% comps these days). But when your new production efforts are so feeble that half of your showcase main releases are comps of stars who have long since departed you have a serious problem. My local porn store has been racking Anabolic on the lower (grade B) racks for a year, and only stocks about half of their new releases. PS. Note that one release has the wrong caption - wrong title! And all have already been released - not one is in fact "upcoming"

I too remember when that was the only porn I would browse but not anymore.
They seems to be banking a lot on that ARTCORE but I am reluctant to even try it out after being burned on some others.
How is that ARTCORE? Has anyone on this board bothered to check it out?

They have not kept up with the competition like Evil Angel, Red Light, and Zero Tolerance.
Zero Tolerance ?????? Yo toad . Time to put down the crack pipe . Zero Tolerance isnt even in the game at all . They have the worst titles in the history of porn and lack any originality . Their shit looks just like all of the other 2nd rate crap . My guess is they will be out of business by the end of the year unlike Anabolic . Zero Tolerance , thats funny .

I've always been a fan of Tom Byron's work, from Elegant to Extreme to his new company, so I may be a bit partial, but for my money Evolution puts out the most consistently strokeable porn out there. I haven't been disappointed yet, and I've watched almost all their stuff. Evil usually hits the mark, particular Jules' stuff. This may be sacrilege to some, but I'm not really into Buttman. I hate his whiny voice. And Randy West is just dead fucking weight over there. The rest of it - Anabolic, Zero, RLD, PXP etc. etc. etc.... It's all indistinguishable from the next. If there's a girl I want to see, I'll pick up something, but otherwise...

You are the one that is stupid. I know how many pieces of videos they sell and they are doing quite well. You might think their product sucks but they have one of the best salesman in Greg Alves.

Any idiot that makes comments like this from avn.com is full of shit . " LAS VEGAS - The final day of the summer VSDA show, held at the Venetian Hotel in suites on the South wing of the 28th floor, got an early start at 10 a.m. and lasted a mere four hours, winding down early in the afternoon. “The hustle and bustle of yesterday is gone,” Zero Tolerance CEO Greg Alves announced. “The best thing for us, other than doing a lot of new business, was hearing people refer to us with Red Light and overhearing someone say that they want their company to be positioned like one of the top companies like Zero Tolerance. I guess we’ve arrived.” " He guess theyve arrived ? Well if he doesnt know then the answer is no dumbass , you havent arrived . His quote is pathetic and make ZT sound desperate . When they go out of business later this year you will be calling me the Porn Nostradamus .

One thing about Zero Tolerence that I can't stand is the clunkyness of thier DVD menus. If you have actually "arrived" I would imagine that you would have your DVD's set up professionally not like something someones nephew turned out.

anabolic has gone downhill
Suckabolic reminds me of the Chicago Bulls when they broke up Jordan, Pippen, and Phil Jackson to save money. Now the Chicago Bulls suck and cant get any good players to sign with them. What they save in payroll does not compensate their lost revenue and market share. I believe they just got lucky in the beginning when the gonzo market was small and they had a great group of talent. Now the gonzo market is overcrowded and they are not even competitive. You know survival of the fittest and the dinosaurs like Anabolic will die off.

I don't know about their business plans or anything, all I know is it is getting harder and harder to rub one out while watching an anabolic fick. I used to not have that problem.

You sound jealous. Say what you want about Anabolic but these guys are great business men.One can only dream of being half as successful as the Bolics and im sure they will be around much longer then most of the currant crop of the new cookie cutter companies.

Anabolic bites, good businesmen? not if they continue putting out crap.
They are good business men in a way. Putting out crap when they know people will still buy it because they see the anabolic logo. Kinda like Vivid compilations, people still buy it because they heard of vivid.

I agree with Jeff... and many inside the business who understand BUSINESS think anabolic will survive much longer than than many of the newer companies based upon BUSINESS. As a fan, I think they have not done so well lately (and I have even tried to see if they were interested in infusing my blood into their production team). From a BUSINESS perspective, many insiders think their model will lead to long term profitability and success. Remember, Enron looked good for awhile, now see them. GM was going broke until Iacocca. Now look at THEM.

i thought it was chrysler, but i can't argue with their business model. they've made enough not to care about 30 years from now--while everyone else overhead, publicity, and is bent on tying up meat puppets to contracts---they're spending pocket change and cashing checks. the checks might not be what they used to be, but they're headache and operational-cost free.
