You know, I’m not really into porn…however I have caught a few when I was young at slumber parties with friends who had Cinemax. We mostly sat there and giggled like loons…  
Sorry for the hijack…

I hate those fake tans that all the girls have. And their hair & makeup is always so 80’s. Just so out-of-date. The clothes are so bad, too. The girls wear those horrible platform shoes that make them look like Minnie Mouse. I remember watching one DVD with my BF in which the main character wore these white open-toe platform shoes with ankle socks. Ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh. And don’t get me started on boob jobs. Come shots are gross too. Like, I HATE that in real life…why do I want to watch it happen to someone else?

_That’s_ Ron Jeremy. But I don’t think he’s Mexican.

The Principal of my Oxford college is named Peter North. Excuse me, _Sir_ Peter North. Naturally, more than a few students have made the connection…

The fact that, until my dying day, I’ll remember Adam West, not as Batman, but for being in “Young Lady Chatterley II”, “The Happy Hooker Goes to Washington”, “The Happy Hooker Goes to Hollywood” and “Zombie Nightmare”.

Oops! That last one wasn’t a soft porn film, but rather a MST3K film!

[sub]Gimme a break, it starred Tia Carrere and the acting was comparable… [/sub]

Ron Jeremy is pumping gas.

Right before his tank is full, he pulls out the nozzle and sprays gasoline all over his car.

Then he starts rubbing it into the windshield…

The obvious answer to this problem is to use the magic of CGI to create porn scenes that can then be morphed into existing classic films. That way, when Rhett carries Scarlett up the stairs, the adult version doesn’t fade to black, it inserts a special scene where Rhett stops halfway up, unable to contain his passion, and takes a moaning, writhing Scarlett right there on the staircase. Or an Rick’s additional Paris flashback that includes running across Ilsa in a hot lesbian brothel scene. And you can just imagine what is really making Elsa Lanchester scream in “Bride of Frankenstein”.
