| skronker Notable Legendary Icon Scopophiliac 9780 Posts 9/02 | I have a bit of a rant ... I thought maybe it was limited to one director/line but now I see it is spreading. I'm all for trying different stuff, esp in porn where it can be very cookie-cutter but this business of shooting porn scenes in complete darkness ... I don't get it. I've tried to watch several scenes from Stagliano's Voracious, which I know a) is a vampire-themed and b) is supposed to be arty/narrative porn, a niche too often signified by terrible lighting pretending to be "moody, and c) Stagliano's shot tons of great gonzo and Fashionistas was a pinnacle and etc. But here's the deal: If I can't see people fucking, how it even porn? And if it's not porn, what's the point? I can watch a hundred better vampire movies. I don't know if this is just willful "auteurism" gone unchecked or a poorly executed concept that no one's got the balls to say it doesn't work, but ... OK, there's a lot of other porn to watch, even just on the Evil site. But now James Deen is doing the same fucking thing. Part 2 (Greed) of his 7 Deadly Sins series is almost all nocturnal so far. And damned if I can tell what's going where into whom ... I guess this is erotic for someone, maybe JD's vast female fanbase, but it is totally un-strokable. That's it ... just a rant. [Link] |

| Quorrl Senior Member 2835 Posts 3/11 | I can't judge "Greed", because I have only seen the trailer/teasers. But I have watched "Voracious", and I can only say that I could definitely see people fucking. In the majority of scenes. The neon colors scene was "unwatchable" for me too, but that wasn't because it was too dark, it was because neon colors are ugly. |
