Here are some of the best years in porn for me
1) 2007- The explosion of Brazzers featuring Shyla Stylez, Jenna Haze, Eva Angelina, Nikki Benz, Lisa Ann & Sienna West all in their prime
2) 1995- The explosion of Jenna Jameson during her Wicked Pictures era, Jeanna Fine deep throating huge dicks & Peter North the legend in his prime
3) 2002- Jules Jordan moves to Evil Angel delivering all star casts with Jenna Haze, Belladonna, Gauge, Aurora Snow, Shyla, Alexa Rae, Ryan Conner, also being post 9/11 ended up being a huge positive for Porn as girls like Taylor Rain decided to not pursue a career in the airline industry and jumped into porn in 2002.
4) 2004-2005- (2004 was dark due to the HIV scare but after the Summer the 04-05 was hot featuring non stop hot scenes from Teagan, Keri Sable & Jasmine Byrne)
5) 2011- Jules Jordan puts more focus into his site, Mandingo returns, Elegant Angel is the best studio at the time, Asa Akira's best year, Lily Carter debuts

I'll say 1997. Tom Byron and Rob Black were still working for Elegant Angel. Seymour Butts was enjoying his best years. Vivid Video was putting out high quality material. Also, by this time, you had a big influx of pretty eastern European women shooting on the other side of the Atlantic. You could make the case for a year in the mid 1980's when the videotape money had flowed into the industry. I'll call it the Ginger Lynn years. However, the content was tamer back then, so I'll stick with 97.

Judging by the DVDs and its content and quality I gotta say 2005 or 2006. So many great DVDs packed with fun and eyecandy and just take a look at that list above.

Having said that, McKenzee Miles started out that year and became my favorite starlet for a quite some time, and Katarina Kat is my number one foreign sweetie of all time coming to America doing porn. She was a circuit artist before 2006. Ashley Jensen, starting in the summer 2006, is one of those I never can get enough of. So I can imagine there are problems making lists fullfilling these days. And then I have another, Paulina James. Maybe the number one class act of them all that year.

Or the number one class act of 2006, maybe it was Sandra Larosa, or definetely the above mentioned Lena Nicole. Just ask Mr Everhard. And I guess Paulina aftyer all was more of the slutty outgoing kind.

I would say the 80's. I can't stop watching the old vintage porn on [mod edit: sorry but that page has many links to tube sites. Tube sites aren't allowed here.]. Guess It reminds me of my youth :p

That's a fine list of talent there - although i think a few may have been gone by 2006 - Serena South for example.
I was gonna say 2005 and, i think, still would of caught most of these...Sabrina Snow, Jenny Hendrix, and Leah Luv too.

I would say any time between about 07-12 and any year in late 80s early 90s.

For features during the 'golden era' I'd say 1978, the productions had better budgets, directors had their groove on and were ambitious and the performers were dynamite: Pretty Peaches, Easy, Sex World, Misbehavin', Fiona on Fire, Hot & Saucy Pizza Girls, Candy Stripers, V: The Hot One. To fans of features that list speaks for itself. The early 80s, before 84' are also a very rich time for features.

I would credit the male talent of the time as well as the female.
Just about any film this side of Tropic of Desire featuring Jesse St James (Easy from BlackSix's list) is worth checking out - she's fantastic.

I'm not seeing 2005/2006 as all that great, more on the cusp of greatness.
Mason did Riot Sluts 2 but was winding down and would only return to produtivity in 2007.
Jake Malone's Red Light years have some gems like Be My Bitch but pale in comparison to the work he did once he got his freedom with Evil Angel.
And William H had just taken over Big Wet Butts from Zupko and was about to improve it tenfold but too much of his time was wasted on goofy and severely dated 'squirting' videos. Again he really came into his own around 2007 with Brianna Love is Buttwoman.

Fair enough - the compelling factor for me would be the female talent of the era. Zaface's list has so many "diamonds in the rough" on it and he is, for the most part, accurate that they are all centered around the mid 2000's. Beauty is obviously subjective and we are definitely splitting hairs here - I would take '05. Serena's last year.

It is splitting hairs but I'd give much more weight to the second half of the 00s over the first half myself. There are certainly lots of great performers on that list but they're only as good as their partners and the directors they work with. Also many of them worked past that date (eg. Lexi, Gianna).
It takes a remarkable performer like Gianna to so dominate a scene that she could overcome a mediocre partner or untalented director. I find the piss poor setups, unengaged male partners and crummy direction of most of Red Light's videos, for instance, fails to do the women justice.

Jessie was great, Easy is her best showcase and is one of my favourite porn features.

Yeah, good stuff...I've always been a bit of a New Sensations freak. Some folks here dont really dig them. Too vanilla, too tame...not sure. From what I've seen, they do a good job of showing off the girl. Some of Paige Turner's first scenes, for example. She was smokin'.
For Jesse, I can remember a vid Hot Legs from around '83, and diggin it. Jesse was getting towards the end and I think that flick had a stellar female cast.
Hope your avatar change went easier than mine. Good rappin' with ya - gotta go.

I forgot where I checked the list when I was compiling it. Probably IAFD. If so, it's probably based on release dates there. As with a lot of stuff in porn, certainty is hard to come by. Still, I'll stand by my choice of '06.
The women of the last year or so may approach or even surpass the '06 group, but what sets the mid-00s apart is the fact that blowbangs and gangbangs were much more common. Back then, it was almost a rite of passage for even some of th hottest girls to do a scene with mots of cocks. I suppose that there's a direct correlation between the amount of money available to pay performers and a female performer's desire to, shall we say, explore her limits.
