Is it me or are the flicks from Hot House new featuring almost exclusively incredibly built, hairless, smooth, untatted, clean shaven California beach studs?

I just got the preview of At Your Service and it’s Jason Ridge, Alex Collack, Kent North, etc., etc. They’ve been gym rats for a few months and their body hair is gone, (along with most of the hair below their belt) and they look like they’ve just been worked over by some Hollywood day spa—perfect skin, perfectly coiffed. Only Nick Piston and Arpad Miklos provide a little bodily variety.

It’s been pretty much the same with their recent flicks—The Missing, Mischief . What happened to the days of Skuff, Manhunt, Screw and the like? It seems a bit un-Scarborough-like, if you ask me.

Apparently the thugs have been banished from the building.

you know... I've kind of noticed the same thing. At least the Hot House guys seem to be a little more interested in the sex than the Falcon guys do.

Alex Fuerte is certainly not hairless. I have only seen a few of Scarborough's films and not impressed. I have seen several of Ace Hanson's videos and have loved them, but his scene in Ram Tough was a snore. The only one worse was the scene he did in Flex for Falcon. The only video with Alex I have liked came out of Channel One Releasing. Hot House seems to bounce around with their types of men and all making it hard to sort of sense what the video will be like. Personally, I think Hot House is a clone of Falcon.

"Personally, I think Hot House is a clone of Falcon."

Well, considering that Steven Scarborough got his start at Falcon and was very instrumental in creating the "Falcon" look... it's no wonder that you'd think that Hot House's videos are similar.

I don't like Falcon because the actors have a "gay look".

Hot House is very similar to Falcon; however, Hot House sex scenes appear more natural than those of their quasi-clone, Falcon.

Colt men are way too "overdone" physically and have lost their "natural" look.

Titan men are generally homely.

In my opinion, Raging Stallion is the best gay studio. The actors have a more natural look than in other studios and the sex scenes seem natural and intense. It's not perfect, as no studio is.

Titan has had great sex scenes in their videos, but the majority of their actors are as ugly as sin. Many of their actors do have a natural rugged look, but they need their faces redone.

This is my opinion. I'm sure many would disagree with me.

Ice Trance,

I agree with you. Titan simply has too many ugly, homely men in their videos. Some of their guys are hot. Then, they have to throw in some truly ugly ones. I don't get it. There's nothing wrong with having manly men, but ugly does not equate to manly.

I agree with you, EroticVoyeur. Homeliness does not equal manliness. What a true statement!

In fact, in a lot of gay studios, I'm finding men less and less attractive as the years go by. Yes, there are a few handsome gay pornstars, but it's becoming more and more rare.

I'm finding some straight male pornstars more attractive than their gay counterparts. That's not saying much, considering that straight porn has never been known for good-looking studs.

I can't get aroused over a man with an ugly face. Titan has some ugly actors, and I'm not exaggerating. Titan's themes always look appealing, but their actors are just so damn homely. Maybe homeliness is in style in the world of gay porn, or perhaps there is a major shortage of gay pornstars, forcing studios such as Titan to cast everyone who walks through the door. Go figure!

But, at any rate, you are right on the nose. I rarely buy Titan movies for that reason.

Ice Trance,

Me neither! If the face isn't right, the rest of it just doesn't work. Titan will often have guys that are old or bald, or old and bald. They're just unbelievable. They're guys whom you would run from in a bar. And there they are taking off their clothes in a video. Ugh! Yuck! I don't want to watch a gay porn movie in which the guys are older and worse looking than me; I want to watch one in which guys are younger and better looking than me!

Ice Trance,

Of course, looks are in large part a matter of taste. However, there are a few very good looking porn stars out there. The Czech star who goes by the names of Pavel Novotny and Jan Dvorak is a beautiful man. And despite being somewhat cold at times, Eric Hansen is another gay porn star who is quite the looker. For some reason, I find Kurt Young to be very cute--maybe it's that boy-next-door quality. So, those are three whom I don't mind watching at all.

I find some of the Eastern European men to be very handsome. They have the face, the body and the dick. They look naturally masculine. That's a trait that I'm not finding in a lot gay male pornstars nowadays.

Yes, beauty is the eye of the beholder, but I have a hard understanding how anyone could find the majority of Titan actors to be handsome. The men in the Fallen Angel Series by Titan-in particular, "IV Seamen"-were awfully homely. I loved the theme, setting, and sexual intensity of that film, but the actors' appearances ruined it all for me. I'd give the film a very, very low rating; that is, 0 out of 10.

Well, we'll have to agree about that, since I loved Fallen Angel 4, and pretty much all the guys in it. It boggles my mind that someone could find them all ugly. Oh well, different strokes for different folks...

JoeBlow69, it doesn't surprise me that you had a raging hard-on during the the entire Fallen Angel Series.

I didn't say every single Titan actor is awfully homely. I've seen a few that I thought were decent. But, all in all, I find them very unattractive.

Now, I do believe that some of Titan's themes/settings/music have outshined all other studios. Fallen Angel 4 had an incredible theme--Seamen! What better than that? It was such sexually eerie and dark theme. The setting got me hard straight away.

I just wish some of their actors could grow some hair on their heads, stop tattooing every part of their body, and have more attractive faces. I love scars and ruggedness, but not ugliness.

I take it my very low rating back, Joe. Titan managed to bring to life the fantasy of tough seamen fucking their brains out in a most eerie setting.

Although I did not the find any of the actors attractive, everything else was. So, let's give the film: 4/10.

Also, Titan films push the boundaries at time. That's fine by me, but it's not my thing. I am repulsed by fisting, cock and ball torture, flogging and extreme humiliation. I think that Titan's twisted tendancies are sometimes taken a bit too far. A bit twisted is fine, but nothing extreme. Some would disagree with me. No, I don't mind watersports, ass-slapping, and wrestling, but nothing that is utterly humiliating and painful.
