I like Juan Cuba. I just recently heard his podcast interview and he's a real cool guy. I think his movies are great and he has always been a consistent director with great casts. I just wanted to show my appreciation and say Juan Cuba is a good guy. Very cool. I love his blowbang lines and think he is good at directing more extreme rougher kind of sex. A notch below Jake Malone but a little more classy I think. No disrespect to Jake, he's good at what he does, but Juan Cuba is a great porn guy. I don't know how he did it in Sperm Splattered 4 but he resisted a blowjob from Claire Dames and she looked like she really wanted to suck him. That's willpower! It may have been scripted but I doubt it...I think he just wanted to get his work done so that's amazing to be able to say no to Claire Dames!

I'll throw some props Juan's way as well. I've realized that I've enjoyed quite a bit of his work with Red Light in the past couple of years. I know that if I pick up one of his titles that it will be enjoyable. He, along with Mark Wood, are the reasons I've really stayed interested in Red Light during their lean times. The film that comes to mind as one of my favorite J.Cuba films is Boy Fucks Girl #2. That movie is the shit with gorgeous girls (Lots of Latinas!!!) from front to back.

I recently saw a good scene between Nautica Thorn and Michael Stefano that Cuba directed which I thought was very good. It was nice that he kept the camera focused on full body shots and let the scene progress in what appeared to be an organic way.

BLACKSIX -
This is my favorite attribute to Juan Cuba's Candy Shop work, and why I continue to enjoy it. An approach to shooting, (and editing), that I've favorably commented on previously in these forums.
I enjoy the way he frames the action, and the way he DOESN'T stay with the interminable closeup view that I find so annoying in a lot of porn. His scenes do not generally have the mind-numbingly long edits of genitalia view, transitioned immediately to ten minutes of female facial expression, all presented from six inches away.
He seems to have a knack for shooting and holding; nice, full body, perspectives, from a variety of angles, that show people fucking, rather than just disembodied parts.
Just screened his "Ba Dunka Bounce #7" yesterday. Love that whole series. Among others.

I don't buy his RLD work, those are not my kind of movies but his Candy Shop is pretty good! What happened to the Alone in the Dark serie?

I believe that series is still going. I'm not sure though. I love when girls suck Juan Cuba's dick. His dick is so different because he actually has foreskin (like me) but it looks like a gnocchi noodle or something (no offense Juan - the girls love your dick more than mine!) and he always brings great character and chemistry to a scene. You gotta love Juan Cuba if you love blowbangs. For the record, I'm not gay and I don't want Juan Cuba's dick...but I do love watching girls suck his cock because it doesn't look the same as almost every other dick in porn. All the power to Juan...hope he can shoot more blowbangs.

I hate blowbangs because I want to see real sex and blowjobs are just foreplay.

I'll have to check out more of his work, I saw him a few times in Joey Silvera flicks but wasn't really aware of him as a director until I listened to Skronker's podcast with him.

I've got respect for Juan behind the camera, but if you want to be onscreen, he needs to get into shape. Porn does not need one more fat guy with a hot chick.

I disagree. Juan Cuba is great onscreen too and porn needs fat guys with hot chicks. Juan Cuba isn't even that fat he just has a pretty good gut. Juan Cuba is one of my favorite male performers and I love watching hot girls suck his crazy cock. Especially Velicity Von. She is paired up in a lot of scenes with Juan and you can tell she digs him.

I guess I haven't seen much of his work, but watched Be My Bitch 5 and was disappointed that I rented a lesbian movie but he couldn't keep his hands out of the scene or quit talking/directing during the scene (two of my major pet peeves).

Strange, I haven't really noticed that in his other videos, maybe he doesn't get the point of a lesbian video: NO GUYS!

Yo-I also wanna throw some props to Juan Cuba. I'm a gay dude but only watch straight porn. The rough stuff. And nobody does that better than Cuba. He's a perv in the best possible way.
I also really dig him as a performer. He's got a big, fat cock and he clearly loves bangin' hot girls. And I like watching. I also like his nasty talk while fucking. As for his body...my preference is for ordinary looking guys with hefty cocks over the standard California male porn actor (if I liked that-I'd watch gay porn!)-and nobody looks more ordinary than Cuba!

Juan I have some suggestions for Alone In The Dark milf edition. Claudia Valentine is so hot and not recognized at all...totally underrated. Lisa Ann would be hot too but I don't know if she would do a gangbang. Holly West is very nice too and I have seen her on some milf titles so she would be great. Any others? Danielle Derek (apparently retired now) and Demi Delia are other hotties I would love to see in this series. I forgot to mention Rucca Page until now so thankfully for the editing button. Rucca Page would be the best. You usually pick a good cast but those are the milfs I would most like to see.

I'm so glad to see this thread!!! Cuba is sooo good and in my humble opinion (he's my ex BFF, current boyfriend/sometimes boss) one of the HARDest working guys in the biz!!! He's always shooting...ALWAYS! That's straight from the girlfriend half of me!! Honestly though, besides him being the person who brought me into this biz. 3 years ago, he's taught me so much and watching him work for the last three years I've seen him grow and get better and better and really find his groove!
I KNOW how totally perverted he is (whydo ya think I love him??) and that shows in his movies and in each scene, which he plans lovingly...he's a sick f*ck and a great director!!!! He gets some hard projects...blow bangs, gang bangs etc. those are a nightmare to shoot and he does it with ease...ok and some smoke breaks too!!! I'm so proud of him and I love him a lot so thanks for all of your comments, it means a lot to him!! XOXO
-Blatent Self Promotion-MY first directorial debut is coming out in about a month from Platinum X Pictures...I'll pimp it out when it's ready!!!

I have to admit that his stuff stands out a bit. A cut above a lot of the rest. I see some potential there. I like that he likes to move the camera and not just show flopping genitals. I'm always trying to get a look at the legs in porn movies and you usually have to wait for them to move the camera in order to do that so anyone who does gets some props from me.

AKA, "fat." Sorry, but I hold male talent to the same standards as female talent. If I wanted to see ordinary-looking people fuck I'd watch amateur porn. You can't make these dudes better looking, but the least they could do is a couple a sit-ups and lay off the junk food. You wanna dance to the music? Pay the piper.
But I will give you points for consistency. From rough sex to ugly fat guys, you are obviously no fan of pretty porn.

I've checked out this series and BSD is right, the great thing is that Juan has found women who are a little chunky and/or curvey but still cute or beautiful. Too often this subgenre the women get treated like dirt and it's like the producer thinks their looks don't matter since they aren't model skinny so it must be about some degrading 'fat fetish' instead of loving bigger, but really beautiful women.

My suggestions for Alone in the Dark:
Camryn Kiss
Cassandra Calogera
Cody Lane
Crissy Moon
Crista Moore
Kailey Stevens
Maya Gates
Natasha Nice
Paige Taylor
Rita Faltoyano
I don't know if all of these girls are available, willing and have what it takes to make the grade but I sure hope some of them do. I know a few of them would enjoy the ride. I hope you like this list Juan Cuba man. Anyway, take it ease and have a good weekend...I'm sure you'll get great girls no matter who you pick. These ones just seem to be the greatest to me for this series.

Doesn't he direct for Combat Zone anymore?
I'm pretty sure he directed "Daddy's Girl" for them, and that's been released this year...
*looking up the Combat Zone website*
There are still movies where Juan Cuba is listed as director and have the status "Coming Soon", e.g. The Girl next Door 14 and Filthy Young Amateurs. So I assume he is still putting out movies for them.

^Thanks. But it seems tamed compared to what he put out before. I thought this guy made great smut.
