^I'm so old that I saw some ass to mouth in the 80's and didn't even realise that this was something worth paying attention and I certainly never realised that one day people would actually want to see it performed by their favorite stars.

I'm so old I remember when squirting was only something you did with a Super Soaker. (I confess I'm not really that old) Edited by - solrage on 5/22/2017 10:10:14 PM
^I'm so old that I don't remember seeing girls swallow because the cum shot was always on the pussy, back, or stomach. You didn't get too many scenes where the guy stopped fucking the girl to get up and then get her to kneel so that he can cum in her mouth.
"I'm so old I remember when buying Traci Lord tapes was legal." In a very technical sense, buying Traci Lords videos was never legal. There was just a period of time where no one (except Traci herself) was aware of that.

Ah, back in the good old days, when they did things right. I curse the scum who invented facials.
That depends on your locality. In many European countries the legal age to appear in porn was still 16 when her movies were made. Only years later when they changed it to 18 they became illegal to sell. And that was not till this century in many cases. Jacco Edited by - Jacco on 5/24/2017 10:32:52 PM
I am so old.. remember as a 13 year old going to the videostore in het 80's with friends and renting porn was no issue. (of course this was in Europe, in those days continent of real freedom)
.......I can remember when voters in the US hadn't taken leave of their senses and decided to vote in a lying, dishonest, self-serving, incompetent as President. And when impeachment wasn't something millions pray for each day.
^Watch Rich Hall's programme on the election (where he promised the UK that Trump couldn't possibly get elected!). The lying and insulting goes all the way back to the 19th century. ..... the first soft porn film I saw in the cinema starred Mary Millington (look her up).

I still have a VHS player around, just in case. Not to record anything anymore, those procedures are gone. But to go down some memory lane, be it sport, horses, music, politics or even old porn-whoeurs. I was thirteen in 1986 and last summer - thirty years later - me and a die-hard Maradona-fan recaptured the World Cup soccer finale live from 1986, overheated Azteca Stadium in Mexico in the heat of summer, at three o'clock, live-recorded back then, fine quality and quite watchable on my Sony player from 2004, which I paid around 500 bucks for, just to have a capable fast forwarding machine available, with so many great tapes around. I could throw them away or buy a last chance new generation VHS machine. I chose the last. Argentina up against what then was West-Germany. Then I don't feel old, just kinda cool.
Video 2000 was developed by Grundig and Philips.....They started Homevideo with VCR in the early 70´s even before Sony´s Betamax. Both were ruled out by JVC´s VHS till the mid 80´s.
I'm interested to know how the three options were available? Was it mail order? Would you actually go to a porn store and there would be all three formats? When I looked up 'Video 2000' I found "It was only available in Europe, Brazil and Argentina" ( http://www.obsoletemedia.org/video-2000/ )
Can't speak for the US but in Canada VHS and to some extent Betamax was available in many video stores. For obvious reasons the latter one was a lot more rare but you could find some titles that were well worth renting in the Beta format. Of course that required buying a Betamax player as well as a VHC player.
Same in Europe. It was not that every film was available in 3 options but some of them, presumably the bestsellers. There were rumors Sony tried to prevent the supply of Betamax for porn. Maybe another killer for Betamax....
I'm so old, I remember when we use to shoot anal for 2 mins and loop it for 5 mins I'm so old , I remember when a new 18 year old girl in the industry was considered a rarity (Kristi Myst) and immediately put under contract. I'm so old, I use to spend Xmas hanging out in World Modeling's office and trying to get Jim South to change the model cards from No Blacks to No IR (cause I hated how discriminatory it was...is)
Back in the day, I remember going into Drake's on Melrose in Hollywood to look for porn videos. The first time I went I was surprised how many of the videos were in Beta format, because VHS was much more popular here in the states. I asked the clerk why so many videos were in Betamax format. He told me they got plenty of Japanese tourists and Beta was the preferred format in Japan.
^ Wow! Very interesting. I thought the whole basis of the 'porn was one of the major factors VHS became the dominant format over Betamax' legend, was because porn was predominantly/exclusively available on VHS over Betamax. Also interesting that so many Japanese tourists would happily pack porn videos into their take home luggage. (Also interesting, for myself, I think this is the first time I've seen someone from the Northern Hemisphere refer to the format as 'Beta'.)
I'm so old I remember when they ran ads for adult movies in sports section of newspapers .. even worse I'm so old I remember reading newspapers!! I'm so old I remember when majority of female performers absolutely refused to let guys cum on them above the neck now they are expected to take it in the face and mouth. I'm so old I remember when adult movie gangbangs were extremely rare, now they have multi-volume series featuring gangbangs. I'm so old I remember when most female performer were failed actresses and wanna-be dancers now they are mostly failed strippers and wanna-be high end escorts. I'm so old I remember when Ron Jeremy was famous for being able to suck his own dick.
I'm so old, the very first porn I watched was on an 8mm film projector in the late 70's. It starred Brooke West. I'm so old when I discovered porn on my eldest brother's Betamax machine, I swore we were in the "Space-Age". Lol
That's old. LOL. Be Kind, Please Rewind. Classic. I'm so old I remember when there was only one camera on set, and then came DVD and the BTS camera was born. Now you got everybody filming something with their camera phones.
...that I had been utilising porn for 18 months or so when this Playboy came out: In this thread/post I made the following observation about one of the articles: 'The New Porn Stars; Beautiful And Talented' gave special praise to Constance Money, Abigail Clayton and Annette Haven. It featured a double-page photo of a young and very beautiful naked Annette Haven lying on a tiger skin with her butt in the air and looking back at the photographer over her right shoulder. I was in love. The first-time I saw her perform in an explicit hard-core scene, over a decade later, was a magic moment. So, regarding the gorgeous Annette, I have, subsequent to the above post, found said photo on the Internet. Well, well...it was a polar bear skin not a tiger skin...and she was looking over her left shoulder not the right (although either the original or the playboy.com photo may have been reversed).

I'm so old I remember taking my 18 year old girlfriend to an actual sit down movie theatre, starring John Holmes. And later that night she brought out a ruler, needlees to say I didn't exactly "measure up". Bitch...
I'm so old I remember paying $12 bucks to rent my 1st adult film for my Betamax, Traci Lords was in it and WoW was she ever a "Fox"! No idea she was only 15 or 16... Edited by - Falconetti on 6/13/2017 12:49:39 AM
I just remembered (I'm old so...) being in the Four Star movie theater on Wilshire in Los Angeles watching some porn movie when a fairly large group of asian tourists came and sat as a group in the theater. At some appointed time or signal (maybe 20 minutes), they all got up en masse and left. I believe the Four Star was being run by the Mitchell Brothers in their halcyon days back when.
I'm so old, I remember when the best way to see porn (underage) was to try to look over the old, pervy, short dudes' heads when they looked at the magazines at Crown Books... [both now dead -- the old, pervy, short dudes & Crown Books] Edited by - fu_q on 6/18/2017 1:41:25 AM
