I just saw this yesterday, very good movie with lots of intense sex. The only problem I have is that the dvd has only the overall time/text marked. If you press the time/text buton all you get is NO TEXT on the display. None of the chapters have been timed which totally sucks. Other than that it's a good movie. But someone at Zero Tolerance should start putting the times for each chapter in the movie.
I'm unfamiliar with this time/text issue. Could somebody explain it to me? I didn't know DVD players had this button. What does it do and how important is it to the average fan. Obviously it's important to you M.B and if others have similar feelings as you, we will certainly address the problem but this is the first I'm hearing of it. Please enlighten.

This movie received a very, very high rating on Adult DVD Empire.com. You can rest assure the cream pies, will be of the highest quality! You will not go wrong getting this movie. Just the box alone, lets you know it will be a love story. Plus the owner of the company only accepts the very best! Skeeter Kerkove

I'm not sure what M.B. means with the time/text issue. My FF>> button is usually the only one I'm concerned with when watching porn, but my remote doesn't have a time or text button either.
When you pop a dvd into your player it automatically starts counting on the display from zero upwards. If you press the "TIME" button on your remote , it will then show you the time remaining in the first chapter/scene (i.e. -00:10:42), if you press the "TIME" button again it will show you the time remaining in the movie (i.e. -02:05:23), if you press the "TIME" button again it will tell you how much time has elapsed in the chapter/scene you are presently watching (i.e. 00:00:26). Every time you hit the "TIME" button it will tell you how much time has elapsed in the entire movie, how much time has elapsed in the chapter/scene you are now watching, how much time is left in the chapter/scene you are now watching, and how much time is left in the entire movie. It makes it easy to know how much time is left in the scene you are watching and how much time is left to go in the entire movie. Every mainstream movie has this feature and probably 90% of porn dvd's have this feature enabled. To not have this feature on a dvd is not good. It is very simple to implement and the viewer expects it on a dvd. To not have it shows a certain laziness in whoever authored or mastered the disc. When I pop the Internal Combustion disc into the dvd player it only tells me how much time has elapsed in the movie, if I hit the "TIME" button, it only says "NO TEXT" (text means the title of the disc, sometimes when you keep pressing the "TIME/TEXT" it will tell you the movie title, but that's not important) if I hit it again it goes back to telling me how much time has elapsed in the movie.
You need the have these times marked on the dvd so that the viewer knows:
how much time has elapsed in the movie how much time has elapsed in the scene how much time is left in the scene how much time is left in the movie
It's real simple, almost all of the porn dvds have this and have had it for a long time.

As I said before, If this is something we've overlooked and is of genuine concern, we'll fix it but, with all due respect, why are these things important? If I'm watching a DVD of this movie or a DVD of Star Wars, why do I care how much time is left in a scene or in the movie? If I know the movie is 2 hours long and I started watching it at 10pm, do I need my DVD player to tell me that it will be over at 12? I'm sure I don't watch as much porn as the consumer ( I see it live most days) but when I do, none of these things ever cross my mind. Having said that, I don't buy my own titles, you do and because of that you are much more important than me. You should feel that you got your money's worth. Is this an issue with anyone else out there or does M.B simply have an "elapsed time" fetish? Any and all input is very much appreciated.
"how much time has elapsed in the movie how much time has elapsed in the scene how much time is left in the scene how much time is left in the movie " ......
is the most important thing when I watch porn movies !!!
The most important thing is the casting , the sex quality,..... !!!!!!!!
I am sure that "internal combustion" is a great movie , so I will order it in the next days !!!!
Best Regards ,

I did it !!! I just ordered "internal combustion" !!! I will receive it next wednesday !
The fact that this dvd does not have this feature won't affect my buying it or not. However, the whole point of dvd's is that it is NOT vhs. DVD has more features for the viewer including the ones I listed earlier. Any dvd put out now should have this feature, it's not a difficult thing to include on a dvd. If all of the other well known companies have this feature (Red Light, Anabolic/Diabolic, Evil Angel etc the list goes on) don't you think it would be a good idea for a newer company like Zero Tolerance too? When I pop a dvd into my player and see that it doesn't have this simple feature, it makes me think less of the compnay that made it, almost like they don't care about the dvd, or that they don't care about the viewers ease in navigating their way through a disc. It's a small thing, but it shows the viewer you care about the overall product.
Hello! Skeeter Kerkove here! I know the owner Greg Alves, believe me, the man truly cares. It was an accidental overlook on the DVD Author. You can rest assure, it will not happen again. Greg cuts no corners on his movies. He pays the best, he has awesome people working with him. You can just watch his movies and see how much he spends. He really does care. Also to note, he has six scenes in every movie not 5. So he is really going the extra mile. His editor who I know, is also very particular. You will not have to worry about this small overlook ever happening again. I know everybody in his company, they are all top notch. They are spending more on their movies then anybody out here in the valley. They even get a clothing budget! Skeeter Kerkove Porn producer, director, performer.

M.B., Is this title missing all time coding or is just the "supplemental" time coding (chapter time, chapter time remaining, title time remaining) missing?
I can live without the "supplemental" time coding, but I really don't like when all time coding is missing from a DVD.
I've been ignoring this thread because I haven't seen anything from Zero Tolerance to draw any opinions, but, time stamp/code is important.
I think it truly sucks to put a DVD in the player, and when it plays, there is no time displayed. Of course this doesn't mean much, but I like to know how much time I've wasted watching a DVD.
Or on some DVDs, a few that I've seen, there is no display, whatsoever, also not good.
This is no where near a technical answer, or even a coherent one, but if it makes sense, good.

Just the "supplemental" time coding is not there, the title coding is there (overall running time of the movie). Each scene is it's own chapter and you can skip to the next scene by hitting the "NEXT" button on your remote, it's just that they are not time coded.

Whats with CREAM PIES? Does anyone like internal cumshots? If so, why? I can see ass cream pies, but ONLY if they are followed by some intense A2M. Otherwise a cream pie just seems like a complete waste of good sperm that properly belongs ALL over her face.
As for having 6 scenes versus 5, I dont care about quantity, its ALL ABOUT quality. Id rather see 2 or 3 really nasty scenes featuring REALLY hot girls than 6 with mediocre girls. If it means paying some super hot babe triple the day rate most girls get, it will be worth it in terms of sales I think because, if she is not one of the "usual suspects," her pic on the boxcover should move some units!
It's great to hear that the time coding issue is hopefully going to be an isolated incident for Zero Tolerance. I agree with most of why M.B. likes the time stamp, but there are two other things that I think he left out. First, yes, it's a convenience factor, but it's also something that from what I understand, takes close to Zero effort to include on a DVD. It's a matter of polish. More importantly, and I don't think I'm alone in doing this, it's nice to jump to specific points in the movie. Without a decent time code, you're limited to jumping to chapters. If there's one chapter break for each twenty minute scene, that doesn't give you many choices where to jump to, and means you very well might have to scan through ten minutes of movie to get where you want to go. With the time stamp, you can jump directly to any point in the movie as long as you know what the time is of that point.

It's important for two reasons :
1- In long scenes I want to be able to go back to a precise moment for subsequent viewings, if the feature is not implemented it's not possible.
2- When reviewing/assessing a disc it's useful to be able to know how long each scene really is. It's also a good way to check if a movie advertised as 180 minute long on its cover is actually 180 minute long.
Of course I'll buy the DVD if it lacks this feature and the content is good, but from your viewpoint wouldn't it make sense to release a product that looks first class in all regards, even technical, rather than a product that could appear to some customers as clumsy and unfinished? If you want to be a top studio, then make sure EVERYTHING is right!
In most scenes I'd much rather see an internal shot than a facial. Just picture a guy like Julian furiously punishing his penis for what seems like eternity just to deliver some dribble near the head and shoulders of some young lady doing her best 'baby bird at feeding' time impression. Nothing erotic in that.
On the other end of the spectrum is Peter North who should always demonstrate his distance, accuracy and volume.
I just wanted to drop a line to say that, in regards to this timecode/timestamp issue, all future releases from Zero Tolerance will include it. That is, titles that haven't already been authored and replicated.(I'm not sure how many that is. Possiby only two) The people have spoken (well, at least 2 people. M.B and Joey Starr) and you have our sincerest apologies for not seeing the importance of this feature earlier.
Just picked this up the other day and I must say, this is pretty solid. Nice mix of newbies and vets. Anal was very good(6 of 7 girls) and the picture quality was top touch. Can't wait to catch #2.
You wanna see some anal confidence! You will find all you have ever needed to witness in this movie. This movie is currently the # 2 best selling movie at adult DVD talk.com It took away the number 2 spot of my Ass Stretchers movie and the most recent Evil Angel movie. ATM's galore in this movie and all kinds of love stories! What do Skeeter Kerkove and Michael Adams have in common? They pimp out their women in their own movies and pay them top dollar! If that isn't suit case pimping, then I don't know what is baby! Its a "Decadent love story"! God Bless Anal Sex and God Bless Pornography! Porn producer, director, performer.

Yeah, the Magus has done a review here, and I am going to do it soon, but here's a question for you - who is Danny Case? What's he done before? (That's two questions, but bear with me!)
Note to DB - you asked way back at the beginning of the thread about the internal cumshots and making the girl squeeze/fart it out etc - sorry to say that's the deal in Internal Cumbustion.
Marks off for that, I am afraid, but I was pleasantly surprised by the movie in general, seeing as the theme is one that I don't usually care for. More in the usual detail later.

How can you tell if its a creampie, if its not squeezed out?
