There is no "Best" gonzo dvd out there. "Best" in my opinion is a group/company/award group who have high egos and post in their opinion the best DVD to their knowledge. Or they gather a poll from the consumers then post the best one. But then again every other poll a different company has taken has given different results. So..there is no right company or group out there that knows what they are talking about. So there is no "Best".
So you follow certain opinions from consumers who know what they are talking about. Hence HoustonDon, Astroknight, Diesel, Saki, Sonic, Darkmage, Steph, Drew, Evil_Rip, -lunacy-, and all the adultdvdtalk reviewers. (My brain right now is not working, I just seen a young teen outside with a pink dress and her ass was sticking out. Jesus Christ summer here is scorching. )
With that said..I say Down The Hatch are hot series, Lewd Conduct, and...some other stuff..oh...Evil Angel does good ones too.
I would recommend checking out these three companies because I am familiar with them and know they consistently put out excellent gonzo.
Anabolic Diabolic Private
Some series to look for would be Down the Hatch, 2 on 1, Lewd Conduct, Initiations, Nice Rack, Cumshot Deluxe 1 and 2 are great from Private, The Academy.
In my extremely humble opinion, the best gonzo work comes from the "Godfather" of the genre...the one who virtually popularized it singlehandedly...Mr. John Stagliano!
His "Buttman" flicks, including the highly-acclaimed BUTTMAN'S ULTIMATE WORKOUT, has influenced a whole generation of adult movie makers. This includes Seymore Butts (especially DEEP BEHIND THE SCENES VOL 2) who does equally fine work with the "talking camera."
I would definitely turn to the Evil Angel and Seymore Butts labels if you want the finest porn has to offer.
Diesel

But the cut part wasn't the one with Alexandra Quinn, who was in her jaibait years at the time? Something else was chopped?
Anyway, I would like to reccomend some Rodney Moore stuff. I don't know about the DVDs, but so far the videos I saw were pretty amusing. "Best Gonzo"? Nah, but they made me laugh.
You need HoustonDon to reply to this. He reviews movies and knew ALOT abour gonzo. I was into the Action Sports Sex series, he said the COLOR BLIND series was much better.

Only the parts with Alexandria were cut.
So, if a 12-year-old looks 18, should it be OK to leave her porn scene in?
With or without Alexandria's scene (which I have indeed scene), this remains one of John's best movies to date thanks to steaming hot performances from Zara, Talia James, Darla Derriere, Madison, Patricia Kennedy...
I think people tend to look more fondly on Alexandria's scene BECAUSE it had to be cut. People always want what they can't have.
Consumers who don't know that scene ever existed probably tend to think their money was well spent.

Tricia - the movie is, indeed, excellent. But there was something really special in the cut Alexandra scene - and wasn't the fact that she was underaged or that she did a wild anal.
But hey, she was underaged, ergo the scene HAD to be cut, so the only thing we can do is live with that.
Anyhoo, Buttman's Ultimate Workout remains as one of the best movies of the 20th Century.

Brawn:
You have all the constitutional rights to be p.o. about the quality of the DVDs your purchase. It's your money, you paid for it, and you deserve only the best.
But I work at a video company that recently entered the DVD market, and I would like to present at least another side of the coin.
Authoring a DVD is expensive. VERY expensive when it comes to some over-elaborated title like MIB, Matrix or Gladiator . But in the case of those high-profile titles, you can be sure that they will sell like hotcakes.
But the same thing cannot be said about XXX titles. Do you really think that Buttman's Travels Into The Buttcrack of Brazilian Beach Bitches Vol. XXV will have any chance to outsell Gladiator ?
I don't think so.
That's why porn companies usually don't invest THAT much in their titles. The returns simply doesn't cover the cost.
Of course, that's no excuse for poor transfers like Girls on Fire ; even so, you won't be seeing porns with anamorphic widescreen of DTS mix in the near future.

Yep, those pauses are a real biatch.
I never had the chance to watch Evil Angel's original DVD's (they don't send screeners to Brazil), only some of their titles authored here by Careware, and at least one of em, Scorpion 11 , has the weirdest layer change I ever saw in my whole life: damn thing changes layers TWICE in less than 15 seconds!
So far the only other EA title I saw was the artifact-ridden version of Dog Walker , so I'm not the right person to judge.

To the best of my knowledge, the only Buttman DVDs with MORE than one pause during the movie are Anal Show and European Vacation. It was a new authorer, and as soon as this was noticed, the necessary corrections were made. When we need to run a new batch, it will be done with the corrected version. However, we did not feel that it was horrible enough to do recalls for these titles. As for the other two, I'll have to look into it during next week, as I don't think I have either of those two at home. So, are you saying that there is one pause that's too long. It'll help if I know what to look for.

Strike two???
What does that mean? A three equals a ban? I didn't say anything negative Drew. I had a point. But it's okay though.
Ban me right now. That way i don't have to cause anyone or you any more trouble.
Can`t believe someone is complaining about Evil Angel dvds(Brawn) Their product ranks amongst the best in the world of adult entertainment.
I`m sure if they had the funds they would release Matrixesque discs, but until then this is as good as it gets.
Evil Angel dvds always contain loads of extras and visually impressive menus. (I for one, would buy even bare bone discs just to own their productions) Even Private (who have a lot more money to spend) release discs that lack any imagination when it comes to extras (same old trailers/ bios /web links).
To conclude : Evil Angel ROCKS !!!
P.S. come on EA - Release the rest of the excellent EURO ANGELS & HARDBALL series NOW. GAPES RULE !
I read the post before it was edited & removed. The post was long winded and a little harsh but I do not believe the user should have been removed for speaking his mind. True- the forum member should have used some etiquette, but negative comments make a forum more interesting and open for debate.
I missed the comments. What did Sonic say? What was Strike One?
Anyway, as far as Buttman's Ultimate Workout, I've seen the scene in question, and I thought it was great! (and for a gay guy to say that, it must have been somethin' really special!) Too bad it had to be edited out.
Gator, there are plenty of gonzo titles out there but what is best for one person may not be best for another. The Action Sports Sex series varies wildly and is generally low grade while the Buttman stuff is generally at least very good with some titles being great. In between those two (for me at least), are the Anabolic, Private and other companies that put out some good stuff. If you could give some more detailed information about what you want, many of us could help you more.
Removed user: If a title is edited, for legal reasons that I can understand (I don't want anyone going to jail because of an idiotic juvenile that scammed people), it should either be offered for a lower cost or have other stuff added to make up for it. If, like in Venus or Vivid's case, the movie is edited for no good reason, the company should lose business until they fail. I trust Evil Angel's decisions a lot more than most others out there and it's one of the reason's I like them.
I also don't know what you said or did to get banned but given the latitude shown here most of the time, it must've been pretty harsh.
Baron: did I tell you color blind was better? (I don't recall saying that since I'm not remembering any volumes of that series off hand. Thanks for the comment but my opinions are generally only as valid as someone else's. I try and support "why" I don't like something a bit more than a few of you but in the end, all of our opinions are valid for ourselves.
Planet: I don't recall Dog Walker being that bad...
Tricia: Keep making great dvd's but if you have to edit something, let us know about it-it won't change my opinion of the first rate operation you run. (also remember that I'm usually the biggest stickler for technical values here)
Hardz: my understanding of how it works here is that if someone openly attacks another and is warned to back down by Drew or Steph, backing down is the only acceptable response. Telling the Tech God (that's Drew for you newbies) to go ahead and ban you is will probably yield you the response you requested. Sometimes it's better to cool down a bit before acting rash.

Well, I never saw the AMERICAN version of Dog Walker. But I saw the BRAZILIAN edition, authored by a local company called Careware. The image was nice & clear, but so where the artifacts.

Of course if anything's edited, I'll post something here, but the only reason I can think of right now for cutting something out is for legal reasons. (By the way, since this relates pretty close-- Rocco: Animal Trainer 2 is coming out in August as promised with the scenes that were accidentally swapped from Rocco: Animal Trainer 1's DVD.)
Please define "gonzo" for me; I really don't know what it means, except maybe "crazy."
Does gonzo means one thing in porn and another (slightly different) thing elsewhere? Maybe there are several definitions, depending on context. I've never understood what was being said whenever I heard the word.

Hypergriff,
Welcome to the forum.
In the column at the left of the screen, you will find a section headed "Resources". In the links listed under that you will find "Porn Dicktionary". Click on that, go to 'G' and there is an explanation of gonzo.
Wow, this is an old thread with mostly deactivated posters.
