After watching Ass Worship 9 I have to say I was seriously let down by the male talent. Jean van Jean, Erik, Mark Wood, Jerry, Brian Pumper and Jules just don't cut it for me.
The worst offender by far is Jules. Frankly I never ever want to see him perform again. It's like the worst excesses of P-Diddy, guesting himself in every motherfuckers video. Jules is a top class director but as a performer he is hideous to watch.
I like the guys that aren't as mechanical and are inventive in their fucking, Julian, Lex, Manual, Slayer, Mick Blue, Rocco. I know that a lot of these guys can't work with Jules for contractual reasons but I just found the line up in AW9 given the heat of the chicks really, really lame.
There is nothing worse than male performers who are too cool to look like they are enjoying themselves. Jean van Jean looks like a spoilt child being forced to fuck a hot chick and I can't stand the "grit my teeth and pound away" mentality that Plumper and Everhard seem to have made careers out of.
Years ago i didn't like Jules as a performer but i do now. He is especially good at doing anal scenes. I dont really know why but his dick going in and out (yes, actually in and out, not just jammed in) of a girls ass looks unique and really cool. It's like if you want something done right, do it yourself.

Men are very important when it comes to making a great scene, but I honestly don't pay that much attention to them. As long as the girl appears to enjoy herself, I'm a happy camper.
I find that being easy to please is very beneficial in this aspect.
If I was hard to please, I'd probably only be able to watch Rocco's movies.
I do enjoy most of Jules' scenes, especially the Vanessa Lane scene in Ass Worship 7.
I will say this about Jules as a performer: He may not be Peter North, but he does give good cum shots. Most other porn guys just dribble a little at the end of the scene, when compared with Jules. But apart from the pop shot, I think Jules is a good director but I really could hardly care less whether he is performing himself in a scene or not.
Generally, a male performer would have to be incredibly obnoxious or limp-dicked to lose me. As of yet, I don't have any list of guys to avoid the way some on here do. I've always figured that a guy with consistent wood problems won't last in the business, and if a guy gets too rough or verbally abusive with the girl in a scene for my tastes, then that is the director's fault. In a different scene that guy might be perfectly acceptable. And if a guy only appears in the rougher stuff, then I will likely never see him, anyway.
The thing about Jules is that he is kind of normal looking and he fucks real good. The girls like fucking him. I can relate to that so I like watching him make the girls cum and I like watching them make him cum.

I actually think he's a good performer. He looks like he actually enjoys eating pussy, which seems to be a rarity nowadays. He also has a nice dick, knows how to use it.... and the girls LOVE to fuck him.
I don't hate Mr Jordan as much as that but yeah I agree. I very rarely watch the one-on-one scenes with him because to be completely honest it makes me very jealous and envious and I don't get into the scene because of these feelings.
It's something about the whole directing/performing ego thing. The I'm-the-director-and-you-get-to-watch-me-fucking-all-these... insanely-hot-girls-which-I-can-then-sell-to-make-me-money-so... I-can-fuck-more-insanely-hot-girls-all-in-a-day's-work-God... my-life-is-hard... ethos of such scenes. It's not just Jules, it's the same with seniors Stefano, Irons, Malone and Slayer. I completely understand 1000% why they do it but I'm not fucking paying for it! [:P)]
(please note this is me ranting and is not to be taken seriously )
Female directors - ah, well that's a different matter. Go Hillary! Go Ariana! More power to you and fulfilling YOUR fantasies onscreen!
When he performs in the scenes he knows how to get the positions right for the camera, he dosen't have to direct himself, he knows where all the body parts are supposed to be at.
I think there are alot worse performers than Jules.

I think Jules got into performing a lot more than he would have liked because RLD had so many of his favorite woodsmen under lockdown. Now he's just turned into a hound. Good pussy's really addictive.
Jules has concocted and maintained rhythms and combinations that have made me have to let go of my dick and give him a golf clap....bravo, my man, righteous fuck. Hell yes. I think what he did with Gauge and Aurora will forever live in my mind's eye, though, as what I'd point out to say "Snap. That so fucking rules. High fives all around. I can't stop cumming over here. This round's on me. Is it my turn yet? Oh...Hell, yeah." Somebody shake the man's hand for me. Make sure he's washed it first.

Jules should stick to behind the camera from now on.
I really don't like Brian Pumper and mark wood as performers. And that Jean val Jean guy tries too much to be a pretty boy with his leather wrist band its funny.

Thats true. What the fuck is wrong with most of these male performers these days. Almost all the new guys suck, and don't burry their faces in the pussy and ass!
Take the bangbros sites for example. The male talent used to be good (with help from D Sanchez, not Caesar or Preston) but now they got those mofos that I CAN'T STAND JMac (who swears hes such a thug and that hes down) and Jordan. Please go check them out on assparade or other bangbro sites and see for yourself. Guys like them are bringing the scenes in movies down, so directors need to go back to guys like Mike Stefano, Manual, and Mark Ashley to carry the scenes.
If Jean val Jean being a pretty boy brings out a better scene from the females, than I'm all for it.
JJ's performers might not be all A-list material, but it's better than the bottom of the barrel that's been working for Ana/Dia and (since recently) RLD. Clowns like Tony T suck the heat out of any scene.

He's one of the best director/performers there is as far as camera awareness and setting up shots. Too many director/performers jump into a scene and forget that there's a camera rolling.
I don't mind Jules as a performer. I like him better as a director. The only gripe I would have is a few of his movies where is just about the only male performer but that has only been a few movies some years ago. Go Jules!
I've seen the man coax highly strokable anal scenes out of honeys who normally don't give up the ass. Just because he's not pistoning away like he's trying to pound nails up there doesn't mean it doesn't feel good to both of them - and it certainly looks good, too. He fucks with patience and actually seems to savor the sensations and visuals - how rare.
Doesn't anybody else like a nice, slow fuck, I mean - come on, have you felt or wanted to feel a woman's body accept you so gradually, so sensually, that you were so turned on you had to pop before you even got all the way in her?
Just the other night, I took like half an hour to get halfway in Mrs. 60 while kissing and murmuring sweet nothings and stopping to really worship her breasts and give her clit a little tickle now and again and we were both so turned on that ..
Nevermind. Locker room talk. Who needs that shit.
If he ain't slapping nuts against her so hard it sounds like he's pimp slapping her ass with his sack, and she ain't screaming, it's not worth watching.
You would prefer, perhaps, a more sizzling pseudonym? Cobalt's cocksocket? Irradiated Rita? "So, anyway, I'm jamming my cat-scratcher down Mrs. Blue Bitch's throat and ..." Suspend disbelief, fucker. Work with me here.

Cobalt - awesome post earlier!!!! It was getting kinda steamy in here!
I just wanted to add that with Jules, it just plain LOOKS like his dick feels good. Not that I've looked at it on my TV for extended periods of time or anything.
I would agree with the original post, - this is something that has struck me several times when watching JJ movies. I think he is an average+ performer, - but a fantastic director. Before I was buying all his movies, - now I stay away from the ones where he stars in more than one scene. I end up wandering if his acting makes him loose focus as a director, or even if he puts himself in the movies to save money on the cast...??
Jules can fuck better on and off cam than 98 % of you wankers who are critizing him.
So shut up now.

When I first read the post from jamesb2 I thought there was gonna be a tidal wave of jules jordan fans coming to take the guy down. I was right...the only difference is that facts are facts and opinions aren't and there are some facts about jj's movies that jj fans can't deny... ass worship 9 was the worst porn flick I watched for a long time...
Ass Worship 9 WAS the worst porn flick I've watched in a long time simply because of the level of expectation I have of JJ. I maintain that JJ is the baddest director out there. He worships women, he knows how to make an ass look like the most delicious thing you have ever seen in your life....but....AW9 was lame. The women just simply weren't fucked WELL. They all looked amazing but the scenes compared to JJ of old simply lacked heat. No chemistry in any of the scenes.
A JJ movie of old would be on repeat in my DVD, AW1, AW2....AW6,AW7, AW8.....all incredible, perfect porn....AW9? I watched it once and have no desire to ever see it again.
Can't you just picture JJ and his new girl Jenna Haze? I am thinking that they most likely have to have someone else there. This is just a thought, who knows?
As I said before, he's just fine with me. It doesn't really bother me if he a directs a scene without himself, nor does it bother me if he's in it. He does give good cumshots.
Personally I wish more performers would stay behind the camera when directing, Jordan, Everhard, Ferrara, Stephano etc.

that does not just go for porn, it goes for just about everything.
I like your movies man, but I think you can afford much better male talent in them sometimes. No more Fabio wannabes, Brian Pumpers, or Travis'. You should get the Manuels and Michael Stefanos in your flicks.
And I would just love to see one movies of yours where is no fuckin DP or gangbangs!

3 of those dudes you just listed are considered grade-A performers. What do you want them to do, hire the new guys or MOP squad who don't know how to fuck be in all their scenes?
I haven't seen Ass Worship 9 because the cast really doesn't pop out for me for a must-buy. Now if Delilah Strong was in it I would've had it already! But I have a feeling he's shooting her soon for something good anyway!
I agree on the weak male performances, Jules style with tattoes and earrings is just not my style, it's really odd, I like his porn despite his awful taste in clothes and design... it's nothing personal.
I think he's using guys that are easy to direct - if you let the best fuckers lose on a girl... they won't stop every minute for further instructions... (Ferrara, Strong, Everhard, Holmes... especially teamed) Load the camera and hope for the best.
Jules has Jenna Haze as his girlfriend. He must do something right.
The only thing I don't like is when he's in basically every scene (i.e. Invasian 2). However, that is the exception not the rule in his movies, and that would bug me regardless of who the director/performer is.
