Hi there. I know there are a million posts similar to this one, but I hope you can help. I am looking to buy some porn and need some recommendations. I would like to get some titles that I can watch with my wife, but we don't want or need the typical couples-type films (slo-mo's, music, plot, etc.). So far, we rent once in a while from a local place and we both seem to enjoy all-sex & gonzo titles, so we can be a little adventurous. What I would like to avoid are films with a LOT of ATM, gaping (some is OK), cum drinking/swapping (from cups, etc.), and things that could be considered degrading to women. One other turn off for both of us is actresses who overact (fake screaming and so on) and you can easily tell they're faking. Other than that, most anything else would be fine - oral, vag., anal, ass play (incl. ass fingering, rimming), titty-f'ing, toys, etc.

Can you recommend maybe 5 -10 titles that would be good to start with? Also, what studios other than Evil Angel and RLD -which I'm leaning towards - would you recommend I look at (I have seen astroknight's great studio guide)? Lastly, where do most of you buy from online? Sorry for the long post, and thanks!

Try checking out out Digital Sin's catalogue, they have some really good gonzo stuff but with a very high picture quality.

The best place to start is to check out some of the best seller lists. Then find reviews and screen shots on the film if you can.

When buying dvd's try to stick with reliable sources. Sticking with the same company is best because a lot of them store your credit card info.

I prefer Adult DVD Empire since they are extremely reliable. If you order something overnighted, it's sent that day and you recieve it the next. They have great customer service. I recently ordered 5 DVD's overnighted that came in a brown UPS box double taped "return if tampered/opened". Very discreet and fast. They also have lots of promotions going on all the time. And send coupons via e-mail that could cover the cost of 1 free DVD. Also their shipping is usually free(reg/priority). If the DVD I want is priced roughly the same price as 5star or Adult Video Universe, I'll get it from Adult DVD Empire, unless I already have an order at the other two.

My next favorite is 5 Star DVD. The best thing about 5 Star is they show large pictures of the Front and Back of their DVD's. They also show screen shots on some. And they have really great promotions like the current Treasure Chest Offer. Where if you spend so much you get to pick a certain number of free DVD's from their treasure chest.

The only problem with Adult DVD Empire and 5 Star, is they are always out of stock, special ordered, or not even carrying a number of titles. It's always that one you really wanted too. That's why my third favorite is Adult Video Universe. They carry a lot of titles that you can't find at the other two, at sometimes lower costs. I've seen an entire series of DVD's usually $18-$25, priced $9.99-$15 at Adult Video Universe. The only downside to Adult Video Universe is if you request something overnighted, it takes them 2-3 days to even get your order ready. So you get it in roughly 4-5 days with an overnight request, because they don't keep their stock in the same area orders are processed, like the other two seem to do. All in all, all three are discreet, reliable and worth checking out.

Here's their current best seller lists.
Adult DVD Empire Current Best Sellers
Adult DVD Empire - All Time Best Sellers
5 Star DVD Best Sellers
Adult Video Universe Best Sellers

A couple of good review sites..
Adult Movie Review Index
Rogre Reviews
Adult DVD Empire Reviews
Adult DVD Talk Reviews
Rancho Carne
World Class Adult Reviews

---------------
You may also want to start with a sampler disc or pick up a compilation disc. Or just sort by the best sellers of the categories you like. Like the Gonzo current or all-time best sellers.

---------
Some studios I like..

Red Light District
Diabolic
Notorious
Dane
Devil's Films
Hustler
Kick Ass Pictures
Platinum X
Sin City
Sineplex
Zero Tolerance


---------------
Or you could just start with..
South American Pie
Which has great music, fun themes, spicy women and excellent bonus material like each girl doing a strip tease to some music. The disc also has a bonus feature where you can select anal, cumshot, etc., and it singles out all scenes featuring that and plays them back to back. It's awesome.

Breakin Em In #2
Which has peaches (an ex stripper..the girl on the cover) spouting off lines like..
Is it tight, i know it's tight, it's so deep, i'm just a little girl, it's so big, i can take it, i know i can take it, your breaking me, i want you to break me, etc. All while she leaves her little white skirt on.

Then pick out atleast one Rain Coaters or point of view film. Which shows everything first person. No scenes of a guys hairy ass, or hairy back blocking a scene. Just pure action with lots of dirty talk. There is a lot of ATM, but it isn't as degrading, because it's the women who mostly initiate it.

Good luck, let us know what you get.

Some people consider all porn to be degrading to women. Funny thing is, I've never heard of anybody saying the guys are exploited, presumably because you get to see him drop a load. This is a somewhat subjective issue.
Reviews are your best bet. I also like Adult DVD Empire. You can also look up genres. When you look up a title, scroll down and look at recommendations.
Enjoy your explorations.

John Leslie's films would seem to fit your criteria. Hardcore, but not degrading and light on circus acts. The "Fresh Meat" and "Voyeur" series are his most notable.

Munkey, I usually buy from Adult DVD Marketplace because they almost always have the best price?

Is there a reason you didn't mention them? I'm sort of new to buying porn, and if there is something I should know . . .

The only thing I don't like is that it is kind of like Amazon in that they are a contractor for other sellers, so you don't receive it from the same place each time. But I've never had anything take more than a week, and much comes in about four days. Their prices are almost always cheaper than Adult DVD Empire.

Thoughts?
Thanks.

J.

There's a lot of online adult stores to choose from.

The reason I prefer Adult Dvd Empire and Adult Movie Universe is because they sell all sorts of non XXX DVD's also. Adult Dvd Empire owns Dvd Empire and Adult Movie Universe own CD Universe. They are two of the largest online dealers in the combination of both adult and non-adult titles.

I think that is what makes them so reliable and likely to be around for a long time. By crossing both sides they are able to carry more titles at lower prices across the board.

A couple of reasons why I like Five Star DVD is because they are in Arizona. The time zone difference means you could order something around 6-7 p.m. at night if you are in Central/Eastern time zones. They ship everything at the end of the day and the same day you place your order. Also their website is full of great features like larger box covers, screen shots, treasure chest promotions. Flat rate shipping means you don't pay extra if you buy more.

Overall they each carry things the other two sometimes don't at different prices. It just depends on which titles you really want and at what prices. I personally wouldn't want my order coming in an Amazon.com style. The last thing I want is my mail man delivering a package someone delivered half open or with a XXX logo on it.

Oh no, they are all sealed very well, and in very discreet packaging. That is not what I meant, lol.

I just wondered if you knew something I didn't, and that is why you didn't shop there.

I have always had very good experiences with Adult DVD Marketplace, and I have never found an XXX video at Adult DVD Empire for less money than at Adult DVD Marketplace.

For example, at Adult DVD Empire, Jenna vS. Krystal is $26.95. At Adult DVD Marketplace the same movie can be had, new, for $18.95. It's just because they search for the best price among certain online retailers that they trust.

No worries, just trying to figure out if there was some other reason you go there.

I never get packages that even remotely look like XXX material, and I have no idea about things being half opened. Just never happened to me.

Thanks.

Well since I'm a woman and I'm a performer and director your wife may find my work interesting since it's from a female perspective. Try these few titles to start of mine from PXP.

Dirty Girlz

Wet Brunettes 1 and #2

XXX Platinum Blondes

Some review sites let you search for certain words in reviews. Like Rog Reviews. Instead of selecting movie title, select in the review text. You can then type in whatever you want, skirts, anal, kissing, etc.

hugoj55,

Hey. I'm going to agree with Jewel on her recommendations, also I'd check out some of the fresh meat titles, you can find reviews on most of them. Also you might want to check out:
Strip Tease Then Fuck 1-3 Zero Tolerance
Private has some dvd's that you might want to check out, just do a search on Private and you'll come up with a lot of them.
Good luck, there are a lot of choices out there, I would say just give the review section a whirl. Though I don't have a lot of titles under my review belt, I do describe the sex and what happens in each scene so you know exactly what happens. Bono-one does a good job so does Flash, Mlyons, Selena Silver, and Astronight, Renee does a good job as well..there are a lot of other great reviewers on here I just thought of these people beings I usually read their stuff on a reg. basis.

Hope this helps!

I third the rec for Wet Brunettes .

I haven't seen the others, but Cytheria gives a performance in that, along with her costar, that is very hot. My girlfriend loves that one, as do I.

What I usually do is go to the Internet Adult Film Database and do a search on a performer I really like.

For example, if you do a performer search on Jenna Haze, you can then filter all her films by scene based on what you are looking for. You'd be suprised how few anal, DP, or A2M scenes most pornstars have done. Often it's only 2-8 out of 30-40+ titles. Some things you can filter on include...

Facial
Anal
DP
LezOnly
MastOnly
Bald
Shaved
Fisting
Squirt
NonSex
Creampie
Swallow
DPP
DAP
A2M

And even sort those by title, year, distributor, or reviews. Each title you click on will automatically show you links to any reviews of the film on the internet.

I also use the site to check certain films I'm planning on buying for what the girls in the film do.

For example, a film titled 100% Anal, that has one/two lezOnly scenes might not be what some people expect to see. Especially if they are buying the film just because that particular pornstar is in it...thinking it's going to be a male/female anal scene.
