Has anybody else noiced that all RLD DVDs had the tribute to 9/11. I found this strange and was wondering what the rational for doing it was. I mean mainstream DVD,s didn't even have that feature it is quite a dichotomy to have such feature on a hardcore porn flick.

Sincerely,
RDD

Vince Voyeur (sp?) was in the military, I think the Marines. He put that there, IIRC.

I noticed that Vince Voyeur's titles had the 9/11 tribute. All the other RLD titles do not.

I'm pretty sure that Red Light released their first movies shortly after 9/11 (from what I've been able to gather, it looks like their first release was in November, 2001).

Vince stuck that on his first movie and continued doing it ever since.

Personally, I don't really care. I really like to see it there and am glad that not everybody is so willing to cut the past loose as quickly as possible.

Not a dichotomy at all that I see. I'm willing to hear why though.
Porn allows much more room for individual expression. Mainstream is about marketing and what different demographics want or would be offended by.
RLD is really the super distributor. The producers there own their own lines. VV wants a tribute, VV puts in a tribute.

The reason I called it a dichotomy is the following: President Bush has used 9/11 at every turn to impliment destructive policies. Including trying to put heat on the XXX industry, so i found it unexpected and a little strange. I did not mean it at as a criticism, VV has every right to put that their, and the tribute i correct we will never forget.

Bush is not mainstream entertainment.
VV put that tribute in immediately after the Twin Towers bombing.

While one is rhetoric and one is tribute. But that is by different groups in different industries.

the point is ; Bush is a Republican
Voyeur is an American

He could be also a Republican but in his tribute this is not stated.
I respect his feelings and even share them with him , though I'm not American.

I guess it was to express solidarity with the American
consumer.My guess though.

No disrespect to anyone who passed as a result of 9/11.

But my only problem with the 9/11 tribute and the warnings & records of compliance notes at the beginning of DVDs…is that you can't skip past them. Some DVDs allow you to fast forward or skip past that chapter. And some don't. Some of the recent Anabolic/Diabolic, RLD movies I've had don't let you do that. I just want to get to the sex. I don't want to read that stuff. Get me to the main menu, so I can press "Play."

I used to live 9 miles west of NYC, and I saw the towers collapse from an overpass. I saw the smoke and the chaos and all that followed after the towers fell.

I am not gonna forget that sight, and I don't think anyone else should. So if the tribute serves as some reminder of an evil out there, then so be it.

The tribute doesn't disturb me, forgetting it happened does.

I think that the tribute is a good thing. Any reviews that I write that go up around 9/11 of any year bear a tribute on the bottom. I wasn't as close as BIGmike when the event happened however the images are just as burned into my mind. Kudos to Red Light District for keepimg it there.

I'm glad the tribute is there. We should never forget the victims of that horrible tragedy.

I've used mention of this "tribute" as a punchline at parties. Always gets a laugh.
