I can't get over how some people are so happy to see the same performers on the same site doing the same acts the same way for the same audience. Abella can be seen anywhere and everywhere and based on the trailer. This performance does nothing to bolster her filmography or Blacked's catalog. There are so many other, better first time IR choices are even first time Blacked actresses. Oh well, it's Tuesday, I guess that means Turkey Sandwich. Brown slacks, blue shirt and a new episode of This Is Us. No point in experiencing any new...

^ I wasn't going to say anything, but I agree. Fans of Abella Danger might like this update but, although she's grown on me, it's not exactly inspiring. As you say, she's got about 20 scenes like this under her belt already. And she'll probably appear on Blacked Raw doing the same again soon enough. This update is just filler as far as I'm concerned.
Absolutely, nothing wrong with BALANCE -- featuring new talent and established favorites. Blacked has been running about 50/50 so far this year. That works for me. Last year, we saw some DISASTROUS SCENES with newbies (Hannah vs.Davin, anyone?). Give me talented veterans like Abella or Natalia Starr any day.
this will be my sticking point to it 1. Every Abella Danger scene is not a great scene 2. Every black male talent she gets paired with is not someone that everyone likes to watch 3. Every director + camera operator combo is not qualified to be filming 4. Abella Danger from 5 years ago is not the same as today, performers change, some for better, some for worse. She has gotten much better 5. The more scenes a great performer racks up, the better. Some people dont want to watch the same handful of scenes 100 times And with that said, he should bring her back again. Put her in an outfit like her Vixen photoshoot and keep the belly chain on her, it really accentuates her hips, especially in overhead doggy shots
Agreed, but out of those that would be a big exclusive, or at least an exclusive who would at least move the needle a little bit, I'm not sure how many actually want to shoot for Blacked(or shoot with black dudes period) because I'm sure everyone below has received generous offers from Greg and co. to shoot for Blacked: Alexis Texas Rachel Starr Madison Ivy Dillion Harper Riley Steele Blair Williams Kimmy Granger Samantha Rone Elena Koshka Misha Cross Etc. So hopefully the casting team will wash their hands of the current holdouts and start off with a fresh slate by finding new IR friendly gems, aka models we never heard of yet, who'll move the needle. Newbie Ava Parker was okay but honestly not that exciting of a reveal.

Gee, what else is new? Abella is one of my favorite pornstars and this is her first scene on Blacked since November 1, 2016. I'm much more excited about her upcoming scene than the last scene, which was a "Blacked debut" scene that included anal featuring Avi Love. Again, I could care less about all of the IR scenes Abella has done for those other sites; I'm not an "IR fanatic" like you, someone who keeps tabs on EVERY SINGLE interracial scene that is produced.

Seriously! I actually REALLY like Hannah Hays, she's cute as a button, but I have to admit that Blacked debut scene of hers was a flop.

Doesn't change my opinion of her, the site or their repetitive practices.
^^^^ You don't have to be an IR fanatic to know that she's shot IR with pretty much every company available, even in the period since her last Blacked appearance. Hush Hush, Jules Jordan, Dogfart, DarkX/XEmpire, BangBros, Brazzers, Archangel... even many of the more obscure sites/producers too. She's shot over 20 IR scenes since her last Blacked appearance, plus another 15+ before that. Obviously for anybody who's a fan of Abella Danger, then the more scenes the better. That's fair enough. But she's possibly the most prolific IR performer in the industry right now, so her appearance isn't exactly groundbreaking stuff. Sure, the site isn't going to be entirely free of IR regulars. But they've made a habit recently of bringing back prolific IR performers (Elsa Jean, Angela White, Jada Stevens etc.) in plain old b/g set-ups, which doesn't match the site's (former?) reputation for exclusive content.

That was Davin's fault and whoever directed the scene.
One thing that I don't understand is why some scenes are considered worthwhile of announcement from the production team, while others are pretty much ignored and only announced by ADT members here. For example the Avi Love wasn't announced and Abella Danger was, not only that but exactly on time (and we aren't talking about showcase or any other special occasion). And for me it's pretty unfair and almost tell a higher sense of proudness and expectations in one scene over the other which shouldn't happen. Unequivocally some fans here will prefer to see a new girl and fail to see the appeal in some talents (such is my case for the last scene as Abella isn't my cup of tea) and others will prefer to see a talent they are familiarized and enjoy, no matter how many scenes they have done before.

I used to think the same. I think he has improved somewhat. Everybody loves Dredd so much, but at this point I'd rather put Davin in a scene. I do not like Dredd at all.

Very good news. Hope it is not some craptastic MMF.
The thing about Mass is that he only really pays attention to a handful of producers. So if the girl hasn't shot for Lansky, or Mason, or about 3-4 other producers, she almost literally doesn't exist to him (and I don't mean that as an insult at all). So Abella's scenes for Dogfart or Hushhush or any other interracial company doesn't matter, and he's only seen her do a handful of IR scenes in total, so new ones are still welcomed. And as far as the general argument about shooting veterans without adding new acts, the idea that every scene can be simply categorized by what girl it is and what hole it goes into, with nothing else mattering, just isn't something I can get behind on a personal level. And Abella scene with Lex is gonna be different than an Abella scene with Prince which is gonna be different from an Abella scene with Dredd, and shooting any of them has its worth.

^ I actually like Abella's scenes with Lex, although he's a shell of his former self.
^Yes, I can see that, too. But I also saw that Hannah was a woefully inexperienced performer and not "ready for prime time." I don't want to knock her too much. She's gotten better in later scenes. But for me, that scene is exactly why we can't have Blacked ever become too dependent on newer talent. The performances can be really, really disappointing -- no matter how cute the girl.

Your summary of me (in your first paragraph) is pretty much spot-on. The "other" IR sites out there, like the ones you mention, just aren't on my "porn radar" because from the little bit of them I've seen, they don't appear to be anywhere near as good as Blacked. Even if I did follow these other IR sites, I still wouldn't mind seeing "IR veterans" like Abella Danger on Blacked because, as you point out in your second paragraph, all IR scenes will not be the same; just because a pornstar has sex with a black guy on one site, doesn't mean her scene for Blacked is going to be EXACTLY the same. That's the main reason why I find this "only first-timers!" stance so ridiculous, these guys act as if every pornstar's scene with a black man is EXACTLY the same. Don't get me wrong, I can get just as excited for some "first-timer" on Blacked as I might an "IR veteran," ideally, there should be a mix of both. But these guys that whine and complain every time a Blacked update features a pornstar whose already got some IR scenes under her belt crack me up; I called them "IR fanatics" in a previous post, but now that I've thought about it, "IR snobs" might be a better name for them.

Any performer in any genre will start to become stale after a while. Or at least not carry that 'wow' factor that this particular site used to trade almost exclusively in. Especially when it comes to standard b/g scenes, which are entry level porn and make up the majority of all porn scenes. After how many years are we allowed to stop getting excited by a performer doing the most standard set-up in porn? Unlike some people on this board, I'm not obsessed with the male performers. The only time that matters to me is if it's somebody I really can't stand (e.g. Prince). Or am I really supposed to be excited by this update because of Cash? She's fucked Lex, Mandingo, Isiah Maxwell, Prince, Rob Piper, Flash Brown, Davin King, Sean Michaels, Ricky Johnson, Rico Strong, Jon Jon, Nat Turner, Jovan Jordan... yet I'm supposed to give a fuck that she's with Cash this time around? Meh... As I've said previously, it's probably unavoidable that they have to shoot some "veterans" these days. But that doesn't mean they have to shoot all of them in the same tired b/g set-up. Abella, Elsa Jean (twice), Angela White, Nikki Benz, Jada Stevens, Samantha Saint (twice), Kasey Warner, Kagney Linn Karter, Gina Valentina, Ella Nova, Romi Rain, Melissa Moore, Isis Love, Ashley Fires, London Keyes, AJ Applegate, Marica Hase and Valentina Nappi all (re)appeared on the site in the past 12 months, all in entry level b/g vaginal scenes. Plus performers like Abigail Mac, Brandi Love and Natalia Starr, who'd more or less only done IR for Blacked at the time, also returned for straightforward b/g scenes. And I'm giving Karlee Grey a pass, because she'd only ever appeared in a group Blacked scene before her October b/g scene. That's around 1/3rd of their content over the past year. And no matter how you want to play things, that's not how this site used to be. But if that's the way it's going to be from now on, then it's gonna get old pretty damn fast.

What has happened to Lex? He can only perform decently with his wife now? Time to hang it up.

Who is he married to? Also, I've never thought he was an especially good performer, but I've never really had a complaint about him. That said, I've seen so little of him recently that he's just not top of mind anymore.

^Savana Styles Edited by - CherokeeFan on 3/15/2018 7:37:18 PM Edited by - CherokeeFan on 3/15/2018 7:37:54 PM
^^ he's married to Savana Styles. And when he was younger, he used to be much more energetic and innovative. He loves weed. He also loves having creative freedom too, which is why you dont see him shoot for many companies anymore. The two things I always thought hurt him was his inability to build long standing chemistry with higher profile performers and his tendency to shoot the same positions over and over Speaking of which, that's the one thing I agree with Inigo about. Too many Blacked scenes follow the same script, the same background(white sheets, white curtains, big open bed), and often have the girls repeating the same positions over and over, sometimes even in the same order and my theory for having more FFM(not the dreaded MMF) is that there is double the chance for there to be a girl I like. I can put up with a girl I dont prefer is she is paired up with one of favorites(she just better not hold the scene back)

I also agree with this critique. It'd be great if they got more creative in regards to the stories, locations and sexual positions. But, frankly, they've been doing the same thing for years now, so why should we expect any kind of change?
kinda bummed that they never seem to dress the girls up anymore, almost every scene is just plain bra and panties or a bikini and it's off almost immediately anyway, kinda adds to the sameness feelings of all the scenes. I miss the lingerie sets with the stockings, etc., it was what set the site apart a lot at the beginning.

^^ I second that. Scenes like the threesome with August Ames and Abigail Mac a few years back, with both of them looking sexy as fuck dressed in white stockings and lingerie. The photoset for that scene was a work of art. Or Naomi Woods on her knees in virginal white lingerie with two dicks in her hands. The best recent example was back at the start of last year, with Cadence Lux and Anya Olsen side by side in matching stockings and garter belt being face fucked. Funnily enough, I remember a couple of years ago people were actually complaining about the lingerie and wanted more scenes where chicks were in ordinary clothes. This was around the time the Lyra Law scene dropped, where she was just in ordinary jeans and a top at the start of the scene. Now the scenes where we get a nice feast for the eyes, with the chick(s) dolled up like a fucking dream, are the rarity. As far as I'm concerned, it's one of many recent departures from what made this site so outstanding in its first few years.

One thing I don't mind is having the scene be on a bed almost all the time. Couches are way over-used in much of porn; you can sprawl on a bed and do anything, and it just looks better. And I definitely don't want to see any stupid kitchen, office, car, classroom, etc. scenes.

I'm fine with starting a scene with lingerie, but it all needs to come off, no more than a third into the scene. Watching them take it off is so much better than leaving anything on. I can look at Victoria's Secret if I want to see lingerie.

^ If Blacked put out a scene with her shortly thereafter, would you be excited about it or would you not care simply because "Dogfart got to her first?" I'm curious.
^Didn't you know that once a chick has done her first IR scene that that's the only one that matters. Any other site that shoots one after that is immediately irrelevant and unwatchable because she can already be seen doing the same exact IR scene elsewhere. Guys live and die for that little red Exclusive tag
Like I said before, I'm pretty sure most of the holdouts below have received generous offers from Greg and co. to work for Blacked, but obviously Greg and co. cannot book anyone who doesn't want to shoot: Alexis Texas Rachel Starr Madison Ivy Dillion Harper Riley Steele Briana Banks Alexis Adams Abby Cross Blair Williams Kimmy Granger Kenna James Darcie Dolce Samantha Rone Elena Koshka Uma Jolie Whitney Westgate Misha Cross Ashly Anderson Veronica Rodriguez Katya Rodriguez Bree Daniels Sofi Ryan Pamela Morrison And as far as brand new talent, yeah, there is the possibility the performance may be not go so well, like someone pointed out regarding Hannah Hays' scene with Davin King.
