| Endorphin Luminary 1185 Posts 3/00 | For quite a long time I have been wanting to do this, but I have been procrastinating. What I have written below is not complete, but the completed version may never happen. At least you have something to go on. Other reviewers can follow suit. Alter Egos Nav: Naughty Nav: Tallyman: Represents a more vengeful side. To avoid confusion I do not write reviews as alter egos, though it is damn tempting. Scathing reviews are not what Endorphin is about. Tallyman would take credit for Dirty Debutantes and Up and Cummers. Sometimes Naughty Nav takes control of a review. Case in point: Lesbian Cheerleader Squad 2. If Nav wrote a review it would be for High Heels. Favorites Racquel Darrian--Greatest ass ever!

On scoring discs: General Reviewing: I don’t do laundry list style descriptions of the sex scenes. I have recently started doing brief scene descriptions, but these aren’t meant to be all inclusive of what is contained in the scene, just a general idea. When I do screen shots, I shy away from hardcore shots as we all know they are there and focus on the talent and sets to give readers a sense of the film. My screen shots aren’t representative of the video quality as I reduce the quality of the image for quick loading and to save on Steph and Drew’s bandwidth. I also include a shot of the main menu for the disc so readers have an idea of the DVD authoring. What I like:
What I dislike:
None of this is all inclusive, it’s just what I could think of off the top of my head, at some point I may come back and add anything I think of later and at some point I’ll add this to my web site provided by Steph and Drew. If there is anything that isn't included here that you'd like to know, feel free to ask. The current list can be accessed here For those interested, here is the breakdown of companies that I have reviewed as of 1/23/03
And here are the numbers it was made from: Private 18

| BIGmike B-I-G-m-i-k-e 2335 Posts 3/01 | Real Name: Mike. I'm white... I chose the name BIGmike, because one day I did my first review at DVDempire of Rogue Adventures 2, my first review, nothing spectacular, but something that got me started down a path of depravity. I didn't want to use my real name of Mike, so I added BIG in front and kept the rest small, B-I-G-m-i-k-e. Since then I've reviewed I think almost every genre... Gonzo is best for me, because when I am whacking, I don't want to remember any plot But I do occasionally enjoy feature DVDs -She-male is favorite
Favorite Studios are Evil Angel, home of Joey Silvera. Red Light District a close second, and Diabolic third. I also like Elegant Angel, Wicked, and Avalon. My reviews are constently evolving, hopefully improving. I like gapes a lot, I know I am not a minority on this, but a lot of people understandably don't like this. Make sense of it. Don't make sense of. I likes what I likes and I am very stubborn. Oh, I don't deduct points if a DVD has no Extras. If I did, none of Joey Silvera's DVDs would've gotten fives. ---BIGmike, going and going and going since MCMLXXX--- EDITED <ONCE> AGAIN TO SAY: I have seriously considered jumping back into the review thang, and have sorta.

Adult+Movie+FAQ http://amri.iafd.com/ ...Internet+Adult+Film+Database Reviewing Philosophy: A quick something about myself, I have been watching porn with great interest for the last 10 years. My first porn flick was Taboo II and since then I was hooked. I got interested in directing TV and theatre in high school, studied it in college, and won some awrds for it, to boot.

| SQUIDMONKEY Ass Lord 446 Posts 8/02 | Aletr Ego: I'm also known as Freebass, as this is my DJ Name, when I play out bastard fast Hardcore Techno for loads of sweaty drugged up nutters!! Background: I have been reviewing now for about 3 months and have found it an enjoyable experience for me to go through all these different dvd's and it has given me a completely different outlook on porn and it's production. Hopefully within the next year I will be making the big step into porn production myself, once the finances are ready and hopefully I will be producing filth that will be enjoyable for all!! Favorite Directors (in no particular order): Christophe Calrke Favorite Stars (in no particular order): Anita Blonde
General Reviewing: Finally (which admittedly is a new addition) I have started to give the girls a rating at the end of each scene. Not only does this enable me to remember what these girls were like, but it also enables me to determine if the girls are going down hill or not. It also allows the reader to grasp what sort of girls that I like, and the rating that i would give them out of 10. I think that I am quite harsh with my ratings, and for a girl to get a perfect 10 would be amazing!! What I like: Tease scenes What I dislike: Fat ugly men!! Arrgghh I hate Jean-Pierre Armand and old men as well!! Just makes me F**K jealous!! Indifferent: Gaping Anyway, I hope you like what I write, and although I'm writing for you guys, I'm also kinda writing for myself, as I use them for future reference on ladies and stuff. I hope you enjoy them and I hope you like my quirky English humour

Very dirty does not mean aberrated and I'm not really into Circus Sex acts. Very dirty means girls who are insatiable sex-fiends and love to show off for the camera. Some Of My Likes (these earn review points) Beautiful girls
Plots that get in the way (and that means most) Ambivalent I don't mind boob-jobs, as long as the breasts are positioned properly and the scars aren't awful Other Things Of Note I don't watch porn in one sitting, basically the more sittings it takes to review the flick, the higher the score it receives! I rate based on the cumulative Whack Factor of the flic. I believe the primary (sole?) purpose of porn is to get you (the viewer) off! The Whack Factor measures how effective a scene is at achieving its purpose. Most discs have a combination of hot scenes and filler . Occasionally, one finds a dog disc that is all filler . I will blast such discs! But even more rarely, one finds a disc that is all hot scenes . Upon these discs, I will bestow the Whackmeister Seal of Approval . Films that receive this award are in my mind keepers, they will continue to provide hours of sexual entertainment for months to come! The only other note I would like to provide is that I am honest and I call 'em like I see 'em , and if that irritates some people, too bad!

| Goldmember Member 518 Posts 7/02 | AKA: Review Style I also do my best to add screenshots to my reviews, because lets face it in the end we all want to see for ourselves. When it comes to ranking the DVDs I review first and foremost I consider the quality of the movie. Yes audio and video quality are important, and DVD extras can really enhance the value of some discs. However a great film is still a great film, even if there are no extras and the picture and sound quality are average, but a bad film is a bad film no matter how nice it sounds or looks and who needs an extra helping of a bad movie.

| oreb Member 92 Posts 6/03 | 1. There is a followable, interesting, or otherwise attention getting plot. This can even be the look of a film. or... 2. The sex scenes are very well performed (with the camera work getting in the way as little as possible). In otherwords I like good features or good all sex films. If a feature has a terrible plot but awesome sex it will still receive high ranks because I will simply skip the plot. Here are a few lists of likes and dislikes. LIKES: Things I can Either LIKE or DISLIKE: DISLIKES: That is all I can think of on that front. I score dvd's by rating the women and performances of a scene. To get an overall score I average them all out for the feature, this is my base rating which I then add to or subtract from based on the quantity and quality of the extras. Thank you for taking the time to get to know your reviewers. I would appreciate any questions, comment, or critiques of my reviews. I can be reached at orebtalk@yahoo.com. |

| Hardware All-Star Member Your other left 14606 Posts 3/02 | 1) Beautiful women - which I define as women with faces I like and bodies I can stand. Good skin is a major plus. Bad boob jobs are a major minus - as a rule of thumb, I'd say very few women need breast surgery to look good to me. Whether they need it for themselves is another matter. 2) Anal sex - I love the way anal sex looks on film. I may ignore a woman until I see her in an outstanding anal scene and only then decide to check out her other material. Furthermore, there are so many women out there that I tend to ignore the beautiful ones who don't do anal just to keep the number I'm following down. 3) Quality shots - I'm looking for a few good shots, not a lot of mediocre ones. Furthermore, I'm not particularly interested in anonymous body parts - I want to see who it is that's getting fucked and how she's reacting to it. 4) Couples - I don't really care for "the gang's all here" or "lez be friends." I found it boring in my personal life and I see no benefit to it being at one remove. 5) Being there - If the performers can't convince me they're "there," then I'm not either. 6) Clothes - the "je ne sais quoi" of porn, the right clothes can turn the heat way up. I'm reminded of Vanessa Chase's scene in 'Hotel Sodom 2,' where she comes into the room in this soft white, semi-transparent top that clings to her breasts. That combination of innocence and allure just puts the peter-meter to the wall. 7) Production values - the setting in which the sex takes place is like the setting into which a jewel is mounted - it should be elevating and enhancing the actors and the acts. If the set, the lighting or the audio get in the way instead, then it costs points. 8) Passion - The next step up from being there, passion suggests not only willing, but eager participation. I have no way of knowing whether a couple are truly hot for each other, consequently I don't really care about the reality. I just want the performers, in conjunction with the director, cameraman and editor, to make me believe that they're hot for each other. 9) Positions - there are certain positions that, when done well, just drive me up the wall, in a good way. However, I don't demand these, as I rather dislike the 'check the boxes' brand of sex scene. Nevertheless, I can't help upgrading scenes that include them. 10) Respect - similar to passion, except by respect I mean that the man recognizes his partner is another human being, not just a collection of warm receptacles. This doesn't mean things can't get intense, or even rough, it just means that he celebrates the woman's sexuality, rather than making it seem degrading. In this regard, I find Steve Holmes comes the closest to consistently expressing that ideal. Favorite performers (this is by no means complete):

| Coyote Member Daylight Savings Time, is it really Necessary? 972 Posts 3/04 | About Me: I have been reviewing here now for a few months. Reviewing smut is sort of new for me, but I think I'm getting the hang of it (haven't had any neg. feedback yet). I use to review movies for my post newspaper and have found that reviewing porn is a lot harder to do. I really got into porn when I was in Korea. When I was there some friends of mine hired some girls and they shot a few films for a web page. I did some work from the camera end and the performing end. Since then I have really gotten into porn. My old x girlfriend dumped me because she said I was too perverted for her (needless to say she wasn't into anal). I blame all of my perversions on porn but I'm not ashamed, I'm really a nice guy..hehe! Favorite Girls: Favorite Directors: Favorite Films: People Who Ruin A Film No Matter What: When I do a review I try to describe the sex itself rather then make it seem like a piece of poetry. There are some reviewers here that do a good job at that. I know that when I look for a dvd to buy or rent I want to know what is in every scene and whether I know it will be what I will like. Especially when I buy because it is a lot harder to get rid of a dvd that says ANAL on the cover when I go to trade in my mainstream movies. I am no expert in the technical side but as long as it is crisp and clean that's fine by me. I don't like to give 5's too often because to me that means it's perfect, and let's face it not many things are perfect. If I like everything in the film and the special features are good than I'll give it a 5 but that doesn't happen often. My likes/dislikes are in my reviews so I really don't want to write them all down again. If you made it to this point then congrats!!! I hope that now you all get an idea of who I am, and possibly I will see you at the next convention!!! Edited by - coyote22 on 5/31/2004 3:54:24 AM |
| Renee Member 765 Posts 8/03 | My likes are real chemistry between the performers, one man/one woman scenes, some actual conversation between the people in the scene, good camera, lighting and editing (at least good enough that it doesn't interfere with enjoying what's on film), decent pacing to the sex action so that it looks natural, not rushed or too slow, and a mix of medium and long shots, with a few close-ups. My dislikes are female caterwauling, fake moaning, male swearing (when it sounds hostile), men who move like they're on autopilot, women who just lay there, fake lesbian interludes, anything that makes a performer look like she/he is in discomfort or pain, extreme circus acts, jerky camera moves, choppy editing, too many close ups, bukkake stunts, and any ratio above 2 men/one woman in a scene. I don't have a favorite director who stands out all the time over all others. Even the ones I like can sometimes have scenes that aren't my cup of tea. For the same reason, I don't have any big favorites amongst the performers, whose work I will enjoy no matter what. The one who comes closest is Rocco Siffredi (as a performer, not director) who has a real naturalness on film and some incredible moves, though he can sometimes be callous or look uninterested. Let me say I'm less bored with his performances than with any other man's. My favorite film that I've seen, the only one I've given 5 stars to, is "Rocco Invades Poland", even with its few faults. My favorite individual scenes are: 1. Tera Joy, Erik Everhard and Steve Holmes, Scene 1 in RLD's Sport Fucking 1. 2. Sandra Romain and Manuel Ferrara, Scene 5 in PXP's Ultimate Asses 2. 3. Jamie Brooks, Corinne Taylor and Michael Stefano in PXP's Fresh Faces 3. 4. Holly Black and Rocco Siffredi, last scene in John Stagliano's Buda. These are my favorites because I simply could not think of one way any of them needed to be improved, for me they are perfect. |

| ExperimentalGuy Member UK 191 Posts 4/04 | I guess I'm still new to this porn stuff. I have been watching porn off and on for many years, but only seriously got into it this year. By no means do I profess to know as much about it as some of the reviewers here, but do try to give as much information to the reader as possible. I also try and say what I like or don't like in the review and point out particular turn ons. I have enjoyed all the porn I have been able to review and find the task a worthy challenge of my writing skills, knowing what to add and what to leave for the viewer to discover. I hope my reviews have helped someone make a purchase. That I think would be a real buzz for me.

| ObiBong Senior Member 1162 Posts 12/02 | Porn viewing history: I have at least some historical perspective. I started long enough ago to have seen several films in actual theaters. Formative early titles include Titillation, Brief Affair and 8 to 4. I completely stopped watching porn for about five years in the mid- to late '90s, but DVDs brought me back. The DVD of Cashmere was highly influential in making porn an actual hobby for me, because it was the first porn disc I saw that had a commentary track. I was instantly hooked on DVD extras, because they help you get to know the people involved. This led me to start seeing porn as a hobby, something to follow the way I follow, say, the NFL. I don't just watch the games/movies, I read about them and pay attention to the personalities and the business, the comings and goings. This, of course, is why I love ADT, for that inside-baseball stuff. Why I started reviewing: The inital impetus was that I thought it was odd, and unfortunate, that Vivid movies don't get reviewed. Like it or not, that's a big segment of this industry, and I think ignoring it is not a good thing. More generally: to add a bit of weight to the feature side of the feature/gonzo balance here, and to try to make myself useful in some way to this community. Directors whose work I usually don't miss: Nic Andrews, Brad Armstrong, Jules Jordan, Michael Ninn, Vince Voyeur. Current stars who singlehandedly cause me to rent a movie: Katsumi, Devinn Lane, Alicia Rhodes, Gina Ryder, Monica Sweetheart. Stars I miss: Chronologically -- Veronica Hart, Angel, Melissa Melendez, Nikki Dial, Vicca, Brianna Blaze. Things I like in a DVD: Bonus features. I'm mostly interested in Behind The Scenes material, not extra sex. I love a good commentary. Blowjobs. I think they're very photogenic, and they highlight my favorite part of a woman: her face. Some favorite practitioners: Katja Kean, Vanessa Chase, Brianna Blaze. Smiles. I like T and A as much as the next guy, really I do, but a bright, room-lighting smile really makes me pay attention. Plus I always see it as a good sign if a gal looks happy. Some favorites: Gina Ryder, Luna, Monica Sweetheart. Women. As opposed to girls. It's nice to see women in porn who are full-fledged adults (not to mention closer to my age), instead of just the barely legal types. Some favorites: Devinn Lane, Julia Ann. A scenario. Often this means a decent feature plot, but I like vignette movies too... just give me a little setup for the sex. Condoms: Don't really bother me. Implants: Bother me a little more, but I'm not fanatically opposed. Circus sex: I can be quite entertained (as opposed to aroused) by the extreme stuff, but I don't crave it. And I think a regular DP just looks better on camera than a DVP or DAP. Call me old-fashioned. Roughness isn't a plus, either. Some favorite discs: Cashmere, Dark Angels, Flesh Hunter 1, Improper Conduct, Multiple POV, and most of the Serenity/Jonathan Morgan comedies. Favorite oddball scene: Sky's Day Off -- the lightsaber fight. I love everything about it. It's choreographed and executed well. The making-of reel showing the outtakes and goofing around is hilarious. Most of all, I love that it has nothing to do with the rest of the movie, contains no sex, and really doesn't belong in the flick -- but they wanted to do it, so they did it. Beautiful. Biggest porn-related regret: Choosing this stupid name when I registered here. I didn't think it would be used for more than a couple of posts. Now I'm more or less stuck with it. All feedback appreciated. |

| MDJames Member 21 Posts 6/04 | I'm planning on setting something up on a very simple website, but for now I guess this will have to do. To borrow from Winston Churchill, I am a riddle wrapped inside a mystery inside an enigma. I pride myself on being an "Internet Man of Mystery", although as you probably know, the more I post the more you'll know about me. "MD James" is my name. James is my last name, not my first. And no, I'm NOT a doctor, although I'll gladly play one on TV. I picked up the name after watching an anime video called "MD Geist". If you do a Google search of the alt.sex.stories newsgroup you'll probably find quite a few stories that I put together over the years. Some of them are pretty nasty. The most notable is my 2-part contribution to the "Humiliation of Jane" series. (Please note that my own personal life is a lot tamer that what you read in those stories.) What is my biggest pet peeve? I really hate it when you have a director film a movie in normal speed, but when it comes to the sex scenes, they drop the speed by a third and then do some stupid voice-over. To me that's BORING. I want to see it and I want to hear it as it's happening. I've said it in my reviews and I'll say it here... sex plus slow motion equals BORING! I also don't like seeing sex scenes where it's all about the two genitals bumping. That's just part of the equation. Let's show the rest of the anatomy, okay? I want to see a woman's face as she's having sex. I want to see her breasts bounce. I want to see her toes curl and her eyes roll and her fingers clench the guy's back. How do you score these videos? I like a variety of videos, from gonzo to compellation to feature to pro-am. It all depends on the subject and the participants. I'm not partial to any one company, and I don't really care about the company as I do the talent and the quality of the video. Please note that the price I give the videos that I review is the price that I feel they are worth, not necessarily what I paid for them. There could be some videos that are worth $35 that cost $15, and there are some that cost $35 that are really worth $3.50. Yes I like stories that have an ending to them that's more than just showing the last pop shot. I like aftermaths. I want to see a storyline wrapped up before the ending credits roll. I tend to favor brunettes and redheads, but that doesn't mean I'm completely turned off by blondes. In terms of DVD features, I think that scene selection should be a basic function and not considered an extra. I think that a bio page should consist of more than just text and a static photo. I believe that any DVD that offers "multiple angles" should really do just that and not just rehash other scenes. I hate DVDs that put people through the ringer and then have a really lame reward. And I expect an interactive DVD to be just that... completely interactive. I'm not asking for too much here, am I? Anyway, that's what I'm all about. |
| Gof Member United Kingdom 151 Posts 4/03 | First, some information on my background. I am male, single,34 years old and I live in the United Kingdom. I do not work within the industry. I love most sports, but particularly football (soccer over there) and cricket. I also enjoy mainstream cinema and current affairs. I started posting on ADT about a year or so ago but my posts have become more frequent recently, as I have become more familiar with the ADT community. Pornography, particularly in the UK, is not one of those things that you can openly admit to liking, let alone discuss at any serious level, and so it is great to have a venue such as ADT which is both stimulating and informative. I began reviewing adult films about six years or so ago with a couple of friends, but this ended a year or so ago when the group drifted apart. I also craved a venue where my reviews could be shared by a wider audience. There are a number of reasons why I enjoy writing adult reviews. I think that, when reviewing a film, you really have to watch it, and so you notice all the effort, all those nuances, that go into making a film. This means that you get much more out of the film than you would simply masturbating over it and then putting it in a draw. I am also interested in what I, and others, find visually erotic. This is why I enjoy directors who are provocative and different and who explore the boundaries of eroticism. Pornography has also been a companion to the development of my own sexual development in terms of experimentation and what I find sexual in my personal life. On a more practical level, I hope that my reviews will help others to identify films and performers who they too can enjoy. I know that my adult purchasers are heavily influenced by recommendations from ADT. Finally, I believe that porn is ultimately all about the women, and I just love to see beautiful women engaged in the act of sex. More than that however, ADT provides a forum where fans can worship their favorite stars and in some cases, interact with them. My likes include: Sexily dressed women. A scene is much more erotic if the woman is provocatively dressed, and then we see the clothes come off as part of the scene. It's like unwrapping a present on Christmas morning. High heels. This is a major plus for me, in fact I think I have a shoe fetish. Passionate sex. The sex is so much more erotic if the girl is really into it. This doesn't include the corny 'stating the obvious', "your dick is in my ass", but real enthusiasm. Domination or submissiveness. A psychological dimension to the sex. Well shot sex. What I mean by this is that I like to see shots of the woman's body and her reaction, rather than just shots of penetration. Gonzo, as appose to feature porn. Reverse-cowgirl, both vaginal and anal. Dislikes Women not taking their top off during a scene My favorite Performers I much prefer the 'girl next door', cute look, rather then the stereotypical porno babe, such as Jenna Jameson. This is one reason why I much prefer to watch gonzo. In no particular order; Brianna Blaze Favorite Directors This is a short list because I've only seen a limited number of films Jules Jordan I hope the above is useful. I will try and update it every so often. |
| slappy Member 6 Posts 10/04 | Specialty: paysite porn - I like it better than DVD and studio porn, some sites have no plot and go straight to fucking, some sites have too much plot, some sites have just the right amount of plot. You pick the girls, regular updates, and if you don't like something in the vids, one click moves you right past it and back to the whacking. Networks have made the price competetive too: usually 7 or more sites for the price of a DVD and a half. Most sites have at least 20 girls, some have more than 100. That's a lot of porn for the buck. The downside: hard drive space gets chewed up quick. Thank goodness for CD burners but some of the bigger vids don't run so well off CDs. Reviewing style: A quick blurb on the sites and then scene breakdowns. Focus is more on the chicks not the site itself. Favorite chicks: I'm a fan of how the girl looks more than how she fucks or whatever, although if she's good at that it makes me like her even more. If I think she's hot I can like her scene even if she's a lame performer, but my reviews point this out. A few of my faves are: Favorite sites: Biased toward: Biased against: Website coming soon (looking for hosting right now) Yes... I do take review requests for sites I have memberships to. |
| Pocketcomb_Pimp Deactivated User 1921 Posts 7/03 | I’ll star by saying that Jeanna Fine has always been my hands down favorite. She look so incredible, and does everything well. I guess that leads me to my likes. When it comes to the women of porn. I love round shapely asses. Full fake breast (Like Jeanna of course) Anything larger than DD is circus size, and can be a turn off. I do like Ava Devine though, cause she is so damn nasty. I have a stocking fetish also. Plain old black and nude thigh highs get me going. On the flip, I hate fishnets, that ain’t sexy, it’s straight up flashdance, and that ain’t cute. I’d take 5’s that fuck over a contract girl any day of the week. It’s all about the action and the heat, looks don’t go far to making sex hot. I have a scale that is a clickable link in my reviews. It keeps the sex separate from the looks, and honesty the most important part to me is the heat. As far as series go, I liked the early Booty Talks, Freaks ho’s and flows, Black Cravings, Gangland, Up Your Ass and New Wave Hookers through #6. I have no studio bias. A title is either good or not, and stars, director tend to move around, so the production name on the box means little to me. I love anal sex movies, and anal sex stars tend to be my favorites. Anal and Ass are the best ways to turn my crank. On the flip, I hate BJ themes, creampies, Euro themes, movies with fat guys, or small dicks. I also hat bad lighting, camera or fake chemistry and girl who speak ill of IR. What makes a movie a classic for me? More than likely it’s an IR production with Big fake breast white women with ass, and Meat packin black men who stick thigh high women deep in their ass. I don’t drink or smoke and I spend that monkey on Porn and Mainstream Movies.

| JAGnLA All-Star Member people pay me NOT to get naked 1944 Posts 2/04 | ALTER EGO: REVIEW STYLE/PHILOSPOHY I enjoy Gonzo, but am beginning to yearn for a little more diversity...enjoy well-done features, also. I can take almosy anything, but the sameness and repetition of some stuff bores me: the slapping, spitting and demeaning stuff leaves me a little cold - but good ole energeitc, athletic sex...even rough sex or sex with an attitude still works for me! FAVE PERFORMERS: {A partial and arbitrary list} (current) (my) MOST ATTRACTIVE WOMEN IN PORN FAVE DIRECTORS FAVE STUDIOS PORN LIKES I seem to have developed an affinity for Asian performers...not quite an obsession yet, but its early! I'm very much into female arousal. For me, a scene is not quality unless I can suspend disbelief and truly feel the female(s) involved are totally into it and enjoying themselves. Good female energy and enthusiasm is a must and a great female orgasm never hurts! If I wanted to view disinterested women being dissappointed and unsatisfied, I'd just videotape my bedroom! PORN DISLIKEs LITTLE KNOWN FACTS ABOUT ME I guess thats about it for me...now returning you to your regularly scheduled adult viewing... "Corruptio optimi pessima..." |
| RLD Fiend Member Cincinnati, O. 665 Posts 10/04 | Get to know your reviewer: RLD Fiend Alias: None Sex: Male Born: 1978 Reviews: I've done about 25 in a month's time and will continue to keep cranking them out. I love watching porn and writing, so it's a perfect combination for me. I tend to be long-winded but I want to give the reader a clear picture of the overall experience of the DVD. I appreciate all feedback about my reviews, and I hope you all are reading! Education: B.A. English, M.A. English, major private universities. Hopefully my porn reviews do not sound like literary criticism... Porn History: Favorite Studio: Red Light District Studio that I avoid: Evil Angel Favorite Director: Brandon Iron Favorite Starlets, past and present: Likes: and pretty much anything else you can think of... except: Dislikes (avoid at all costs): Favorite porn movies: Some closing notes about my reviews: Female Looks and Sex are the two categories that factor the most into my "overall rating." Audio/Video quality and Extras count, but are not as important. I usually assume that the typical or average price for an adult DVD is $20.00. So, if the movie lives up to my expectations, I will say it is worth $20.00. I don't really care a whole lot about the guys in the movies. I don't feel that, as a heterosexual man, I'm qualified to quantify how attractive they are. Therefore, the "Male Looks" category is always blank. If you care about this, I'm sorry, but I can't help you. If I know the name of the guy involved I will note it in the review, however. If he looks like an escaped convict, I'll probably note that as well. I only rate the "Plot / Acting" of the movie if it is a feature, or acting is really important to the movie. I don't consider "acting" to be a euphemism for "how well the girls fuck." That falls under the "Sex" category. I also try to be as objective as possible. If a movie just didn't work for me, but I still feel that it has merit to some viewers, the score will reflect that. My ratings are hopefully not simply an indication of how horny a movie makes me, but a reflection of the overall quality of the package. Thanks for reading!

| oatmeal Meat Popsicle Seeking Beauty 1738 Posts 8/04 | That means I would rather watch a short scene with properly aroused performers, foreplay and brief intercourse than 20 to 30 minutes of relentless pounding of a poor woman's sore orifice while going through a checklist of positions. For any scene to be considered great I do require it to have a decent money shot... I don't know why, I just do. Favourite Actresses Typically I go for busty brunettes but I do make exceptions |

| john lyons Senior Member Co-founder of Vinegar Syndrome 1188 Posts 1/08 | (stole the layout from Flash) Here's a link to my stuff: https://www.adultdvdtalk.com/reviews/search_reviews.dlt/reviewer=classix+comment/classix-comment.htm Background: I'm a 20 year old filmmaker. I make X rated films and more conventional experimental stuff. I'm primarily into the American Avant-Garde and underground and transgressive films. I feel that hardcore films represent the ultimate outsider art in cinema. I'm currently in college (DePaul University) although I'm probably going to transfer to art school. I suppose my overall ambition in life is to make films but I'm also very much into photography and American social history... Favorite Directors (in no particular order): Armand Weston Chuck Vincent Gary Graver (aka Robert McCallum) Rinse Dream Anthony Spinelli Radley Metzger (aka Henry Paris) Ron Sullivan (aka Henri Pachard) Shaun Costello (too many akas to list) Gerard Damiano Alex DeRenzy Peter Berlin Mitchell Bros. Honorable Mention: Peter Berlin (only made 2 films; both are masterpieces) Favorite Stars (in no particular order): Kelly Nichols Serena Jamie Gillis John Leslie Annette Haven Joey Silvera Kristine Heller Jennifer Welles Tina Russel Lois Ayers Richard Bolla Bobby Astyr Veronica (Jane Hamilton) Hart Samantha Fox Jack Wrangler Leslie Bovee Teri Hall Gloria Leonard Dewey Alexander Ras Kean On scoring discs: I score discs according to the following: Female/Male looks is based simply on how generally attractive a cast is, not their acting ability, etc. Sex is rated according to how well it is integrated into the film as a whole and whether the way the scenes are shot detract or add to my overall enjoyment of the film. Sex is not rated by how much there is or how graphic it is, only how well it fits the film. Plot/Acting is rated by simply how good it is. A film with low production values but a great script and excellent acting will get a higher rating than a glossy production that's all surface and no substance. A/V Quality is rated by whether or not the film is cut, presented in its original aspect ratio, or otherwise made less than watchable due to defects in the pressing of the disc or the materials it was sourced from. Extras are judged by their relevance to the feature. Therefore, a DVD with a great commentary track but nothing else will get a higher rating than a disc with 50 trailers and bonus crap for other movies. Overall rating takes Sex/Plot/Acting/AV/Extras into account. Plot/acting is most important but even a strong film can have its rating brought down by out of place or overly long sex scenes. AV and Extras rarely bring a rating down or up by more than half a star unless, say, a DVD is so unwatchable or cut due to a bad transfer that I can't even enjoy the film. Great extras can definitely bring up an overall rating but a bad movie with good extras will still receive a below average score. General Reviewing: I watch every film or video I review from beginning to end. I do not fast forward or rewind. I watch them as I would any movie I would see. I review X rated movies as movies. I don't divide them into story and sex portions because in order for a good X rated film to be a good film, all it's elements must work in unity. What I like: Intriguing stories Surrealism (so few hardcore films are genuinely surreal!) Good acting Sex which makes sense as part of the film Beautiful cinematography Gritty urban dramas and thrillers What I dislike: Poor production values Plots which only act as a device to move between sex scenes Long, boring, out of place sex Gratuitous close-ups Porn girls (and guys) who look like they're made of rubber and have boob jobs (girls), lots of muscles (guys), no body hair besides head hair (both genders) Edited by - john lyons on 2/5/2008 12:56:05 AM |
