Anyone else tired of I'm horny and dumb and I voted with my dick thing going in the industry? Like, do you find it off putting and not hot at all. Lately I find myself skipping paper thin implausible intros. During sex the performers break the character they were playing and become themselves again and it is so lazy and dumb. Is this stupidity supposed to be hot? It's barely developed and over with a cumshot and then there are no more scenes.

Like how am I supposed to be aroused when I'm laughing at how stupid it is!!

I hope self-directed photo-realistic AI porn becomes a thing soon. Most porn is clownish and boring. The vast majority of directors seem to have zero sense of what is truly sexy and hot, both in setups and the sex itself.

If this refers to the current mass of "freeuse" scene and sites then YES

No truer statement. Alas, most consumers of porn think with thsir dicks, not their brains. Until that changes, you'll have (too) many producers/directors who are all dicks and no brains. Will it ever change? Nope. But, for the sake of throwing out a dream or two, I could only wish that there'll one day be a studio producing porn with genuine erotica aesthetics and cinematic photography akin to the old skool softcore genre which really had class. As long as the consumer majority wants nothing but shove in down your throat, pussy, ass and zero fucks given type of porn, then well nothing will ever change.

I'm all for participating in this thread but I'm going to need some actual examples of what the OP is referring to.

I would encourage you to freely discuss what that means to you. Like, for instance, we see the opening scene : a girl in an relationship who is not satisfied and wants to cheat. She becomes a total sex kitten in next scene without any variation. Now here was a chance where she could be torn with that decision or the guy she was cheating with was. Or, she gives it a go but later discovers that it was not worth and seeks to repair her relationship with her partner. Now that is hot, even if you like watching girl cheat. You can rewind the movie and watch sex scenes in a different way this time.

Instead porn shows women as sex dolls without any ability of self reflection or thought. Cumshot ends everything, affirming that ultimately movie is intended to be finished and forgotten. This cheapens all build up and makes audience feel cheated, especially after post nut clarity kicks in. Interestingly, that doesn't happen with sex in mainstream entertainment where the makers are forced to find creative ways to depict sex and have to imagine where to put them.

In the previous example, there are so many situations to play with. Her partner could find she is cheating and be upset with her. Again we find in porn when cheating is caught her partner soon becomes 100% onboard with it.

Industry produces content in an extremely orthodox way of its own where everything is perfectly predictable, dumbed down and lazy.

^Can you point me to which site/movie you saw those scenes? The names of the performers would also a great help. For now let me say that what you seem to be looking for simply no longer exist in modern porn except in very rare occasions and while lamenting about it will be cathartic. I fear it's just going to add to your frustration.

Fast food sells much more than fine dining. There are smart porn flicks, but most are just busted nuts.

The thing is....most people in porn are not writers. Further, a non-zero percentage of the people (particularly the men) in the industry are into malice first and foremost, and that's especially true of a significant portion of the porn-buying audience. Lack of creative talent + an audience that largely wants mindless drivel that is usually about some degree of rape = banal, mindnumblingly stupid, by-the-numbers, gross-but-deeply-unsexual content.

It's an issue with the audience and producers liking what they like lol

If you're looking for films with deeper story lines, intellectually stimulating, and strong character development, you may be interested in checking out Lust Cinema or Pink Label TV if you haven't already. Haven't seen much of her work, though you may be interested in Bree Mills' materials. From what I've seen, her content goes deeper than the cliche stuff with creative story lines and strong character development. One that stands out is "Perspectives." To folks looking for a film that's all fun and games with a happy ending where everything lives happily ever after, this might not be for you. However, if you're looking for film dealing with serious issues, character development, relationships, and great acting, then you may wish to check this out. It's about a woman in an abusive marriage struggling to get out who develops a support network that helps her. Some sex scenes, though it's not mostly sex and not just the standard porn sex scenes.

If you're looking for something lighter and more of a comedy with a good story line that gets beyond the porn cliches, you may wish to check out "The Wedding."

Haven't seen much of her word, though Shine Louise Houston's work may also fit what you're looking for. I believe she runs Pink Label TV?

Getting retro now: Some of Candida Royalle's videos also had deeper thought-provoking themes. Examples are "Afrodite" and "Revelations."

We also discuss these types of videos in the "Feminist Porn" thread on here: https://forum.adultdvdtalk.com/feminist-porn/reply/3839004 There, you can find a discussion on alternative types of porn.
