I popped in here because I thought the OP read “What people do you want to see in porn?” As the page loaded, I was bursting with ideas of which celebrities to nominate. Sadly, due to lack of experience with porn, I can’t address the actual OP (I swear!).
Fuck the storylines, fuck the acting, fuck the comedy.
No pun intended, of course.
I like porn that I know is real. In a lot of porn, you can tell that the guy is barely hard and the girl isn’t enjoying herself at all (and I REALLY hate when the moans are dubbed in afterwards).
However, my tastes tend to lean towards the bizarre… and I’ve always been a bigger fan of written porn, anyway.
Orright, slight hijack here…I reckon that blokes are more aroused by ‘visual’ porn while the sheila’s tend to get off on the literary kind.
Now I’m happy to stand corrected, and it may be the case that I am overgeneralizing, but from MY observations it seems to be true.
Now that was an unexpected post. Was the exclamation mark at the start meant to be an exasperated tsk sound? (this isn’t meant flippantly)
As regards the OP, you’re surely not expecting to get a consensus view on this are you? The variety that’s already out there indicates that people want different things, and I’d be astonished if there’s an untapped market of unsatisfied voyeurs ready for your New Improved Supersmut.
Personally, its fine by me if I don’t see any porn at all, but thanks for the offer.
Of course I won’t get a consensus view. I’m not stupid.
I just want to know what people want to see - if the status quo is fine, or if people want changes and higher production values.
Porn is unique in that it’s very visceral, and usually not analysed too closely. People generally just want to get off on it. But that’s part of its stigma.
Imagine a porn movie that’s got TV movie production values but with real sex in it! Do we want that? Is it worth pursuing the making of it? Would there be a large enough section of the buying public out there who would pay for that rather than what’s already out there? Do we even know what we want?
I am a champion of plots, of putting the extra effort in to make it worth watching, to have an actual story and characters we can relate to. But the practical aspects of achieving that in porn are quite a challenge to overcome: Actors don’t do porn, porn stars don’t need to act. Money doesn’t grow on trees. Porn has a stigma that limits where and how you can make it, and who with.
Amateur (amatuer?) stuff. Normal looking guys with normal size equipment and maybe even a beer belly. The ‘professional’ porn with the ‘professional’ ‘actors’ doesn’t interest me much at all.
…BarCode tattoo’d on the back of your neck in immense 4 inch markings? I know.
I got caught that way once, too. It was a very dark day in the lives of all of the Moist Clan , I tell you !!!
I prefer the more Amateur looking stuff. I have no idea why, but be it still photos on the Web or videos ( which granted, I’ve not seen in a few years for reasons best not delved into here ), I always found amateur looking stuff to turn me on wildly.
A good script helps, something laughably bad is always a turn off.
Things not liked by me in porn:
-“money shots” esp anytime the face is targeted
-Skanky looking dudes with absurdly sized equipment (I’m thinking “ow!” and “ew!” vs. “oooooh”)
-What I call “biology shots” where is where they somehow zoom waaay in close on the penetration occuring. Yes, I am fully aware of how the body parts interlock, don’t need an anatomy lesson.
-awful lighting making everyone look even uglier (if possible).
-Women (and men) looking totally bored with whatever’s happening.
Things desired (hehe) by me in porn
-Normal looking men/women with normal sized apparatus
-decent lighting so everyone can look at least semi-attractive.
-a little humour would be nice.
-people pretending to enjoy themselves and/or be interested in what is happening.
-NO “squelching” type f***ing noises. gross.
-an actual story, but really its a bit much to ask. Like 90% of erotic stories can’t even manage this.
Here’s an idea – how about making films of some very good erotic stories?
Straight porn: could someone, anyone, please go down on a woman for longer than five cursory seconds. And could she please actually come rather than just pretending to.
I would love to see a porn with some kind of story. A sort of erotica and ‘hard core’ mix. I hate the current selections to which I’ve been exposed. My personal favorite that has come as close to an erotica theme was called “Night Trips 1 (and 2)”. There should be more with that kind filming (scenes go to balck and white, no money shots in the face…etc). I, too, am interested to know if people are content with the current style. Wouldn’t mind a little Alan Ball cinematography. Do I want too much?
Okay, I’ll tell you what bugs the crap out of me about what’s out there now. Two things, really, but they’re connected.
One, the guys just don’t really seem into it. I like the M-F stuff, but I also like the M-M stuff and it’s very distracting when the guy is trying to get up any kind of rhythm or thrust with what amounts to a wet noodle. I mean, geez, if Bob Dole can get an erection, then you should be able to as well.
Two, there’s no lead-in. Boom, all of a sudden they’re having sex, and some of the things they’re attempting would hurt without some kind of preparation. I wanna see foreplay.
And is it too much to ask for some normal kissing? I dunno about you guys, but I don’t lead with my tongue halfway out of my mouth when I kiss someone. The lips join togeter first.
Seriously? It seems that every porn I have seen has a ridiculous amount of oral sex performed on women for an extrodinary amount of time. Of course I have no attention span so everything seems like a long time.
I can only echo what has been said so far. Normal people, normal situations and if you are going to put some really crazy fetish shit in it, warn us first!
A situation in which there is some barrier to rapid consummation, e.g.
• one of the people involved is reluctant or antagonistic to the idea, whether due to a devotion to chastity / standards of not being easily accessible or just doesn’t like the other person or whatever;
• one or both of the people involved has some duty or concern that requires ongoing attention that would have to be neglected in order to have sex;
• one party is taunting the other with semi-contemptuous “I’m gonna seduce you” vibes, putting the other on the defensive / resistant;
• one party is off-limits to the other, who would get into some kind of trouble
• interruptions keep stopping the action
.
…then over the course of an hour or so, flirt and tease and arouse and dare and play (some decent dialog and some other plot activity taking place intermingled with it of course) before finally succumbing to temptation.
