^In all seriousness, what are your thoughts on some of the constructive criticism Jules? I'm not referring to people talking shit etc (it's not respectful) but would like to hear what your objective thoughts are on some of these perceptions.
A lot of people admire your work and would like to dialogue with you about a shared passion.
Cheers,
Axl

I have no problem with constructive criticism....we release info about our movies as soon as there is something to show, ie. dvd cover, trailer, etc....alot of times we are shooting up to the very last moment to bring you some of the freshest content, so there is not months of extended hype on some of our releases.
Are you saying that because you do not know about the movies months in advance it ruins the movies for you?
I always prefer fans to discuss our movies than us shameless self promote thats all.....I think our website is one of the most informative and full of great content for fans....does anyone disagree? We have photo galleries, trailers, message boards etc......
my movies in the works and almost complete are:
Beach Patrol
Breast Worship 3
Dangerous Curves
Ass Worship 12 (starting)
Ass Factory:
Gape Lessons
Deep Anal Drilling

Hey, thanks for the reply Jules, appreciate it. Nice to see you have lots of gold to be released! :-)
It's not that not knowing about a movie ruins it for me, but not be aware that things are coming lessens my interest and excitement as I'm eager to learn more about the release, participants, scenes etc and many studios seem to be able to provide some tidbits of into to whet our appetite prior to the release.
I hear you about the desire to have fans promote, and I think they would do more if they were given a bit more to chew on up front. Graham at Elegant does a great job of simply posting here some details of the upcoming release well in advance, and then the fans grab on and the momentum builds. First the front cover or some screen shots, then the back cover, trailer etc. I think I've seen this occasionally for JJV products, but more consistently would I think bolster your image and relationship with the customers - and I think would have a positive impact on your sales!
Anyways, I'm only one person and my concerns, not to sound corny, are because I actually care about JJV.
Cheers man.

Note: I haven't gone through all the posts on this topic, so my post might not be relevant in light of all that's been said... anyhoo, my
I still maintain it is incredibly difficult to uphold and surpass such a high standard all the time, yet JJ keeps it going. The individual video series all have a premise JJ adheres to, and it is hard to dispute Jules offers a variety! There is always a delightful mix of talent ranging from vets to newbies, varied ethnicities, levels of intensity (sensual to man-eaters), and the occasional "first time I've ever done THAT!" Jules was one of the first directors to put out 3+ and 4+ hour vids, which many find hard to duplicate without having long boring scenes -- JJ knows how to mix up the tempo. Folks need to get past the fact he's been doing this for 10+ years and you just aren't going to love everything he does.
I have the neurotix habit of ranking things at times, and I've made a list of JJ vids I own trying to see which one is my favorite. Starting out on a four star rating, I pick my favorites and many handily get a 4 star, with most others receiving 3 1/2. That doesn't help so I make it five star and my inclination it to bump up just a few. You see where I'm going? When 3 1/2 was just shy of "the best", now is a sub-par ranking. It's only so I can differentiate between them that it gets a "lower" ranking, yet the video doesn't lose any of its inherent quality just because I rearranged my ranking system. Kind of screwy.
Another way to think of it is that he's made so many good movies, with so many great moments that we're all jaded. It's more novel to complain then to praise at this point, which is a shame. Not many people liked Eyes Wide Shut, but fuck, it's still Kubrick, right? (Don't get you're panties in a bunch, i'm not equating JJ with Kubrick, no offense JJ!)
Question for one of my top 5 directors:
Dangerous Curves sounds mighty nice... is there a name to be dropped star-wise?

This isn't entirely right. Logic and a basic knowledge of economics say's so, but we're talking about the Porn Industry here.
Speaking as someone who works on the Studio side of it, we sell a DVD wholesale for a price. For us, it's usually around $10 - $12. What happens
after that is COMPLETELY beyond our control. You might see it for $24, you
might see it for $12, and every price in between and beyond.

...and if you charged $18 wholesale, you wouldn't see it sold for less than that. As I said in my original post, companies have every right to sell product at whatever cost they want to. But, to claim that the wholesale price doesn't affect the retail price is ridiculous (in any business).

While reading this thread I realized I should take a closer look at the JJV titles in my queue. Erik Everhard's voice kills wood almost as surely as a Ron Jeremy sighting.

Jules Jordan,
On your web site on 02-08-2010 you posted this information;
"I actually do have some gangbangs coming up soon for a new series!"
Can you tell us if this is in the works or almost complete? Your comment back in 02-08-2010 spurred an amazing interest on your web site, along with, is there a chance Tory Lane is in this series (or do you have any new Tory Lane scenes for 2010?). This gangbang series topic (along with the Tory speculations in the gangbang tread) is one, if not the, most viewed thread on the Jules Jordan Forum.
peace

Hey JJV fans,
Let's let this thread die because the title is not really what I think any of us want to communicate (ie. excitement about new releases). I started a new thread discussing the new and upcoming releases for JJV in Porn New -Press Releases - check it out and please post there.
I think Jules may have a higher propensity to post the info we want in a thread that wasn't negative towards the company.

Has anyone had a problem with Once You Go Black 3 dvd? The picture quality of the disc I received today is extremely bad. I have about ten other titles by JJ from his days at EA and I've had no problems at all with the picture quality. But this particular disc the images are blurry throughout the movie.
It has an out of focus look usually seen on dvds where to much content is crammed on to a disc.
I noticed that after OYGB 3, this series is released as a 2 disc set was this done to correct the problem?.
