Hi guys.
This seems like a really friendly forum, and I need some advice, so hope you can help!

I'll admit it - I'm a pretty horny 20y/o guy and I've recently moved away from home to University. At home it was hard to get access to the 'adult' world, so now I've got lots of opportunities.

Me and my roomy were chatting about porn one night (we're both straight by the way) and how, other than on the net, we've never seen any top-quality stuff. So, we've decided to club together and try to get a bit of a mini DVD collection going.

Trouble is, where to begin?! The choice online is unbelievable! We like pretty hot, young-ish stars (in their twenties - or look like it - doesn't have to be barely legal - their tits are a bit on the small side from what i've seen). The DVDs can't be the very latest US releases as they have to be available here in Europe, so anything 2003 or before should be ok.

Umm... features & plot should be to a minimum (it's purely for the 'action' if you know what I mean). So maybe a compilation? Both like sexy blondes and all the usual sex acts, maybe a bit of fetish, but mostly mainstream high quality stuff would be good to start with. Um, not particularly into anal at all - though I understand there's usually a couple of scenes - just don't really want that to be the focus of the DVD. Also, looking for hot females really to be the main feature - not amateur or 'gonzo'. Some lesbian scenes, but good old hard straight sex is what we wanna begin with. (Is the 'all sex' category what I'm after maybe?)

I know it's a tough request - there's so many pornos out there - just want to start with a few really hot, good all-rounders.

You can probably tell I'm confused with so many studios, types, different features, stars etc... arrgh! I don't mind spending the cash, just want a few decent investments!

A few suggestions would be great.
Thanks for your help guys.

Welcome to the forums, Stuart. Have you looked at any of the reviews?

Hi Hardware.
Yeah I have looked at the reviews, but as I'm a real novice, I don't know where the quality lies. Would I be right to say studios like Private are at a higher end of the market? Things like their XXX - Best of 1 & 2 seem to stand out, but there's a lot of group sex in there - I prefer one on one, with occasional group scenes.

Would anyone say the 'Deep Inside' series are good quality? or are they a bit dated? The reason I really asked in the forum is due to not really knowing if compilations are really worth it or not? or which ones are the good ones? or do you think I should go for a different genre? I'm intrigued by the 'all sex' genre but don't really know exactly what it means - am I just being dumb?!

Starter's tips are what I'm looking for.
Thanks. Stuart.

Welcome here stuart.

Well when I was in your role I started to pick up Roccos stuff (U know True Anal Stories series, feature series etc.)
and I was and Im still reading a lot of reviews. Also check back boxcovers, they are important.

As you seem to like top-hardcore-beautiful-girls stuff, you
should try to focus on maybe anal movies, because they are always hot thus worth watching.
I think if you start with Ana/Diabolic, Evil Angel, Redlight District, Platinum X Pictures, New Sensations/Digital Sin, Devil films or Mayhem you will be safe.

Thanks for your help Mr. Peter.
I hate to sound really choosy, but I'm not really into anal at all, though these super hot females sound great. I'll keep reading through the reviews as you suggest though, and looking at those studios you mention. Thanks.

You may want to find a few women you're keen on seeing. If you don't find the star to your liking you'll feel ripped off and limp.

The resources I rely on are:
AdultDVDEmpire - reviews, screen shots, etc
Search Extreme - links to production studios
Alta Vista Image Search - turn the filter off and search by a performer's name. usually the easiest way to put a name with a face
Free Ones - lists of performer related links
Eurobabe Index - names and faces
Internet Adult Film Database - reviews, scene content

Being in the UK you'll want to find a good online store, take a look at the Where To Shop links in the left column here and the International Shopping Forum.

No problem.

Then you can focus on "Feature" movies as they contain usually no or less anal. Or focus on big boob ones.

Here's a quick rundown of the studios Mr. Peter mentioned:

Ana/Diabolic - bare-bones hardcore, typically shot with decent but not great production values. Getting the girls naked and fucking is the main focus, often with two studs for every gal.

Evil Angel - known for the best production values in the business and excellent directors, they are the top gonzo studio. You'll find a wide variety of themes amongst their directors, and plenty of reviews to help you out.

Redlight District - basically an Ana/Diabolic clone. A few one-on-one titles, but heavily anal.

Platinum X Pictures - much like Redlight in terms of the sex, but with a greater variety of styles.

New Sensations/Digital Sin - known for their generally excellent production values, with a wide variety of themes available. "Big Cock Seductions" doesn't have anal, if I'm not mistaken.

Devil Films - very anal, group sex oriented.

Mayhem - anal and fetish themed movies.

not mentioned:

Baby Doll - second tier production but still OK. They don't focus on anal like most of those mentioned above.

Zero Tolerance - another gonzo company with some non-anal tiles in the mix. I don't believe "Who's Your Daddy" has that much anal in it.

DVSX - well shot movies in a variety of styles, "Inch Freaks" might fit the bill.

VCA - porn with a plot, generally well shot and a variety of sex acts.

Wicked - much the same as VCA.

Sin City - much the same as VCA.

Vivid - home of the 'big name' contract stars, they make most of their money in the cable TV market, where the sex is generally softer, but also put out harder versions of the same movies for the general public. Beware of their irritating commercials at the beginning of the movies.

Private - beautiful women and excellent production values but the sex scenes are generally considered 'cold.' Of course, your mileage may vary. They are also heavily into anal sex.

You also have Marc Dorcell just across the channel. There's plenty of good material there, with some plot elements thrown in for good measure.

Obviously, this list isn't complete, but hopefully it helps you out.

Hi there. I am a fellow UK porn lover and was in a similar position to yourself. I think you may find it hard in today's industry to avoid anal, as it is very popular, but there's still something out there to suit all tastes.

I began my collection with Evil Angel titles, and they are pretty on the mark most times, with Jules Jordan probably being their best director. If you like lingerie and super-model stunning women are important, then Private is probably the way to go, but again they really focus on anal.

Gonzo doesn't mean the women wont be stunning though, as some of the best girls around only do Gonzo and All Sex titles, such as Taylor Haze and Gina Lynn. Check out my reviews for more information (see link under my name).

Additionally, as a UK resident, I do recommend the following website, who ship to the UK, accept debit cards such as Switch and Solo, and there service is fast and mostly reliable (about three days delivery on average if a title is in stock).

Happy viewing.

Thanks for a good guide.
I know I can't really avoid anal and don't mind the odd scene in a movie. Thanks for your help.

Welcome, Stuart! I for one am friendly as long as you are.

Here's my two cents: follow oatmeal's advice and lurk here a while and check out the "Star Crossed" and "Porn News" forums, as well as "Polls."

You'll see ID requests with pictures, stars mentioned whose name you can then pop into the Search DVD Prices box at the upper left or in a Google search with "pics" or "galleries" added, and polls like "Who's hotter? X or Y" or "Best Ass" or "Best Natural Breasts", etc., often with pictures.

Sometimes there are links to trailers for new releases in "Porn News", as well.

Once you've put names to a few faces, you can search out reviews on titles starring your new sweetheart (Mmmmm...Monica is always a great choice).

Before long, you'll still have plenty of titles to choose from, but at least you will have narrowed it down somewhat to girls who really float your boat.

Good luck! With so much out there, obviously a lot of it's just thrown together cookie-cutter crap, but then there's the stuff that'll take your eyebrows off. It'll make you glad you're alive. Have fun.

Remark:
WE forgot Sineplex, but their movies are also a bit anal oriented, they have a few lines and also one lesbian line calles Les Perversions featuring some very hot chicks. Check that out too.

I don't have much to say except that if I was looking for great straight sex, Evil Angel titles would be my first choice. The quality, direction, and girls in EA titles are excellent.

Heh. Reminds me of how I used to feel back when I started
I bet that after a while you'll transition into liking it. I think it's the boredom factor

Hey, stuart (little? )
Since you just happen to change your habitat and are now at the beginning of what could be the best time of your life, what about checking out your local campus girls first?
At the beginning of your studies there should be enough time to party almost every day and your mate can be your partner in crime so you don't have to go out alone.
As a horny self-assured stud who just hit the 20 you could be talk of the town soon.
The money you spare on porn you can invest in a gym membership.
I'm tempted to recommend some angelic stuff but I don't want your for sure cuming coed dates to end up in a fiasco of disappointments.
Now get yourself out of here, the girls are waiting and you have a mission! or should I seduce you?

There's nothing like a girl screaming the house down when she gets her first anal.

Don't worry X-Ray - I've got a perfectly balanced mix. Hope you didn't think I was gonna stay in and watch porn every night. Just wanted to get some in for when the night out doesn't result in a lady in the bed...

That's the main reason I am here actually - I wanted to get a couple of really good titles so that would be all I would need. Plus, my roomy's already got a girl, but he still wants some porn - maybe it's to get some new ideas? Who knows...

As for your offer... well...
Thanks again to all the contributors.
