I just watched Twisted as Fuck and I'm struck at how what was once considered somewhat taboo (well post 1970's era taboo anyways) is now coming back. Specifically rough sex and sex depicting rape or at least hinting at it.

Pedophilia gets a nod with the barely legal stuff, not the "hot young 18 year old" but the "hot young 18 year old dressed-as-a-15-year-old in catholic schoolgirl attire and talking in a little-girls voice" style.

Anal, double penetration, double anal, eating anal creampie....pretty much have the back door action covered these days. I think the shock factor is wearing thin on the stuff you can do to a sphincter now....but I'm betting I'll be proven wrong.

Rough sex seems to be getting more play now, although rough sex with a (seemingly) unwilling partner, or one who is tied/confined, appears to be only available on the periphery. I've seen some of the "Sex and Submission" web-released fare and it's getting there.

So what's left? And I'm not talking fetish-wise. Fetish material will always be to the left or right of the aisle. What new trend in porn is just over the horizon and waiting to take it's place as the mainstream theme, something to influence a pretty jaded buying populace? I'm watching trends of the up-and-coming teenager and given the popularity of video games with violent themes, I'm of the mind that interactivity could be the "next big thing," but I doubt the technology is there to achieve this "for the masses" as of yet. The DVD format doesn't lend itself well to interactivity, it's merely a gimmick for now.

Any opinions/ideas?

Sex with one's self. Computer generated facsimile of one person fucking themselves. (Not twins involved in incest, but somewhat similiar I guess.)

I have a variety of ideas of what I believe will be in future porn, but I will not speak them because they are mine, and will be made by me in time.

CGI hermaphrodites--good looking ones that really look like they have both working parts, and thus more combinations and things to do.

I think CGI will change everything, both in mainstream and in porn, since in CGI you can do all those things that real people cannot or will not do.

Celebrity sex tapes will continue to be big and I expect somebody notable will cross over to X pretty soon, breaking the barrier forever, at least for b-level Hollywood.

Also, CGI will get better and the legal system will be challenged by a number of lawsuits from celebrities who will have CGI doubles on display in X-rated movies.

I want to see most males being placed by some kind of biogenetic robots, why not? At least this way the directors don't have to pay the actors also and robots will do everything you want when you want.

Interesting to see so many predictions of increased use of CGI. Personally, I believe moral values are becoming less of an issue than they were before, so I believe you are about to see the shock value increase further with real people as opposed to CGI stand-ins. Just 20 years ago, when I started watching porn, there was so little anal and the whole concept of double-anal and creampie eating was unheard of outside of underground fetish tapes. Today it's commonplace.

I do believe, however, that the obscenity challenges will be overcome and the next big thing in porn will be blood/violence (make believe, not snuff porn) mixed in with hardcore sex. I really don't see how much more "extreme" porn can become without this. I'm not advocating it, and really don't want to see it myself, but I think that's what is titillating the younger generation now and you'll soon see crossover/hybrid vignettes that show both.

CGI has come a long way, but let's face it, it still has a long way to go for realistic CGI porn to become possible and affordable. Porn is probably the hardest thing to do in CGI because you need a lot of detail and you need good, natural looking motion.

It's possible that a porn-oriented MMOG (massively multiplayer online game)may be something that sets the tone for interactivity AND hardcore porn. Naughty America:The Game, 3Feel and Red Light Central are all groundbreakers in this category.

However, as Naughty America is finding out, "mainstream porn" and "mainstream gaming" are two completely different worlds, and porn is still not welcome in the mainstream MAINSTREAM world.

http://www.xbiz.com/news_piece.php?id=14793

I was invited to sit thru an investor briefing not too long ago that was a small company trying to raise capital for a pretty innovative holographic technology. It was about as close as I've seen to practical usage of holographic projection systems and it could easily become the new flavor for "almost there" reality porn. However, both that and Virtual Reality porn are still a ways off. I think the next big trend will still be live actor based and more than likely either computer or TV-based for delivery. CGI just has too long of a production curve right now versus grabbing 2 chicks and a dick and filming a 3-some for the afternoon, capturing it on digital media and posting it for release on the web same day. No way can CGI match that kind of production speed right now, and not likely anytime soon either.

And I think that's something else to consider here. Porn production values, if I'm not mistaken (and I could be!) have gone DOWN, not up. I hope porn actors/actresses make more than they used to for their efforts, but the production and distribution costs of porn have to be cheaper now than they used to be unless the porn industry is seriously inefficient versus the mainstream media industry. Affordable CGI production that's FAST and CHEAP is going to crimp it's adoption in the porn biz, other than perhaps crude CGI such as green-screen sfx and overlays.

I think to predict the next big wave you've got to consider:

1) What buyers want.
2) What technologies are becoming cheap and efficient and likely to see widescale adoption by the consumer and producer segments of the industry.

My guesses:

1) More shock value....likely reality, violence and interactivity....but this is porn, and I don't think adding the smells of ass sex are what's in store, nor do I believe many shy males WANT to be in too close proximity to a beautiful porn starlet...no matter what their fantasy, it can't be too real or it becomes intimidating.

2) Digital-everything, broadband-everywhere, massive storage of content (shared at both client and server levels) and "I want to give it/get it now" pervades the space. Could we see the advent of On-demand private porn where the consumer becomes the director? Imagine a series of hi-def clips filmed of real actors/actresses doing every conceiveable sexual position, with CGI-added effects for costumes/backgrounds/settings and even dialogue/language. Then you log in and create your own porn fantasy, with stars, positions and settings of your choice, on-demand and on-the-fly.

Dunno, but I'd bet the next "big" thing will involve the baseline tech far before we see introductions of new and bleeding-edge tech.

I agree wholeheartedly. And I am not looking forward to it.

I think current porn, as we know it, will end up becoming mainstream. We're already seeing it now, as mainstream shows become ever more explicit, and as our society's tolerance for sexually explicit material continues to grow. Movies that were R-rated when I was a young would be PG-13 now. Movies that are R-rated now would have been X-rated then. And the stuff I see on pay cable (HBO, Showtime, etc) is eye-popping to me. Even the stuff on free-cable (like Fox Movie Channel) surprises me.

So the current "porn" market, which always caters to what you can't get normally, will continue to push the edge, and that'll be in the direction you're saying: getting into the violent areas.

Decent lighting, good camera work, excellent editing.

A friend of mine showed me a website (3DSexVilla) that has an interactive XXX game. The girls look like something from The Sims, but the movements were very credible, and watching them diddle themselves was an eye opener.

Plus they had a control panel, so you could take the base girl and edit her to what you want--you want long hair? How long? What color? What style? Tits big enough for you? Bigger? You want the nipples angled up or down? Want the waist thinner? How about the hips?

It'll be awhile before it becomes good enough to fool people, but I think we're closer to it than we think.

Or maybe mainstream becoming porn. Maybe usage of 80's and 90's popular music in porn. Not just obscure metal junk but B-52's Love Shack or just about any tune - Don Henley even. Take these songs and set them to porn. That is what I see.

Plus fart fucking. And girls farting in faces.

And of course I always predict movie after movie with fully clothed ladies working at their office jobs getting splattered utterly by surprise with load after load of cum.

Maybe even more squirting but now into any hole - girls squirting into other girls vaginas and poopholes. Heck it could be all out pee even from men - if some studio would dare. Maybe just fake piss from men for the first few releases.

Sex with oneself and sex with roboters is already in existence. Also sex with a plant that has tits.
It's in the movie "The Princess has come of age"
http://www.somethingawful.com/articles.php?a=3605
The rendering quality of the movie isn't all that bad, the motion is pretty realistic. The content is idiotic though.

I think clothed sex could increase even more, with all the fashion victims on the streets and on TV, publicly fashion has become more of an erotic object than the state of nudity.

CGI will increase more. There just needs to be more money input from companies and they could easily produce very realistic movies. The Princess Has Come of Age cost a million bucks and 2-3 years development time and the result is average at the best.
There are programs like 3dSexVilla (bad) or ActiveDolls (better) and they already have fairly realistiv graphics and a very good consumer base. There just needs to be more input for CGI porn to grow more rapidly.

There's a couple of websites that I know of that release farting girl movies and clips. I have not seen them, but I can think of two off the top of my head.

Another prediction; internet only content like watersports websites, fisting sites, hardcore BDSM sites (involving real blood and real pain) and other stuff will make it through to more mainstream [American] porn store shelves. But I don't think that will happen anytime soon.

This Gay Eye Pedicts:

First, and foremost, the routing out of the current political administration, and its attacks on our personal liberties. Hollywood and Chatsworth working together to fend off the undue restrictions proposed on creative expression are a factor in this tidal change.

Next, more cross-over activity, both within fields and genres within Adult, and between Adult and the rest of the entertainment world.

Within Adult, performers such as Buck Angel, "the man with a pussy", will continue open up possibilites of bringing talent and content together from across the industry genres.

A high-profile talent from the hetero scene will stake a legitimate claim to work fully in both gay and straight sections of the industry, using the same name, opening the door for more flexible opportunities for male talent. This will also provide the opening for a viable studio dedicated solely to the creation of quality "Bi-Sex/Alt-Sex/Sex Beyond Categories" releases.

I second DrFate in his prediction that the so-called "legit/non-legit" barrier will soon be shattered by some high-profile Hollywood performer choosing to do an explicit scene in a major porn release while continuing a successful non-porn entertainment career. Also more non-porn creatives will bring more explicit content into Hollywood releases. Jenna Jameson will land a central dramatic role in a Hollywood release directed by one of the top 5 directors currenty working. When the film receives great box-ofice and Oscar recognition, it opens the doors for other Adult Feature talent to perform in Hollywood releases.

Peace, Pleasure, and the Pursuit of Happiness!

Daisy chains.
When the overabundance of man ass in all scenes reaches critical mass, fans revolt, resulting with girls taking on multiples, one quickie at a time, while each consecutive boner, awaits his turn.

I hope the next big thing will be as good as the actual big thing. With squirting having gone all the way from hearsay to visual depiction I think it's much less necessary now to destroy the world than it was before. Now let's go one step further...
This already exists but I certainly hope it will be done more often. Then gapes will finally become useful for me, too.
And some fine non-fake squirting bukkake would be nice, too. 50 to 1 and a funnel... girls rubbing their clits and shooting their juices into male and female mouths... fine lady butts instead of hairy man ass all around...

As for the next completely (well, quite completely) different thing, please let it be genuine (!) vaginal cream, rubbed into men's and women's faces directly from the source. And I want tons of it. Yum! A man can dream. [:P)]

But I'm afraid it'll be something completely different. As soon as the problem of anal lighting will be solved we'll get to see anal sex from the shit's eye view.

So what does this mean? Actresses dressed like fairies/nymphs with male characters grabbing them and ripping their wings off?

The scary thing is there's already a big fetish in Japan for scenes involving men molesting women on trains against their will. Even worse was a game I ran across called "Rapelay" (or something) that was a state of the art computer game about raping Japanese women...

That is fucked up.

Next big thing: body cumshots.

Gapes? Sooner gone, the better.

Creampies? Great concept, poorly executed more often than not... either because they fail to pull it off, or because they fake it, or because the guy obviously cums half an inch inside the girl, or because the whole scene slams to a complete halt so the camera can zoom in on the girl's pussy for 3 minutes... and wait... and wait... and wait...

Swallowing? Lame fad IMO... not that great of a visual, and the evidence vanishes in the blink of an eye.

Facials? Been there, done that... personally I like a pretty girl's face to remain free of blemishes.

The great thing about body cumshots is, with a guy with a large load of medium-thick cum, he can pull out and shower a hundred of drops of cum all over the girl's front or back... makes for a great visual IMO. Again, with the right guy doing the deed, she can sit up afterwards and talk to the camera as you watch it all stream down her chest and stomach. And if the scene continues with another guy fucking her, it's all still there on her skin for the rest of the scene.

Hmmmmmm . . .

So imagine a CMI simulated blood/piss/cum soaked rape orgy with fist and foot insertions, extreme rope bondage and suspension, ritualistic S/M torture, all topped off when Mr. Ed is brought in to impale the victim(s).

Now--stop jacking off for a minute please--my question is this: if this is a CMI simulation, would this still qualify as obscene under the law? In other words, is it the representation of the acts, or their biological embodiment, that might land you in court?

Personally, I believe it's the former, but I don't know of any cases tried on the basis of CMI "obscenity." Anyone have any ideas about this?

Win a Fuck With...

Porn + Element of luck + Amateurs who perceive a chance at winning = Recipe for success.

The winner would be screened, re-screened, hermetically sealed if necessary, and then given his 15 minutes of porn fame. At the end, he even receives a certificate of authenticity.

- just over eighteen lesbos domination
- big titted blow job movies with rough content

That's actually a decent theme for a reality-porn movie. Unfortunately, I'm willing to bet that 99% of the "male winners" here would fail to perform on camera and thus you'd end up having to fake it using pro stunt cocks that are "acting" like rank amateurs/porn fans. Of course, there's always the little blue pill to help with this kind of problem.

Still not a bad plot, however. What would be interesting is a twist on this that has male performers "auditioning" with a professional porn starlet, with a panel of three other pro porn actors/directors/actresses doing the judging for originality, style, performance on camera, etc. Could get very humiliating or very interesting. They have to bring their own plot device, their own script, their own wardrobe, whatever. American Idol meets the Gong Show if you will, porn style. Could also work in reverse (female auditions with male pro's), but this genre is pretty crowded with all the "casting couch" vids out there.

My bet is some current fetish will become mainstream. Pissing, Shemales on females, or Females (with life-like dicks) on females. I saw point 3 in a Vivid/Wicked movie once back in '97 (I think) outside a house, by a pool. We're not talking about strap-ons, but a really talented makeup-artist job.

We already have movies where the focus is girls fucking guys up the ass, maybe this BiMaxxx thing could make it a little more "interesting/confusing". Heck, this might even side with some of the bbg/gangbang peeps.

I don't like the "audition" twist. Most amateurs would fail miserably. This has to be something where you have a website and winners are chosen at random or by winning some contest and are given plenty of time to prepare. A nice twist would be to have guys who are sticking it to an ex or a soon to be ex. Maybe you'd call it "I'll Show You Bitch." I think it would sell.

Mother's Day.

So howabout mother directing her daughter's first bukkake? Mother's commentary on the DVD, "This particular load of cum that's gagging my daughter reminds me of a delightful vacation a few years ago in Italy."

"Mama, I don't want to swallow that man's cum."

"That's alright, honey, just spit it out. All that matter is you gave it your best."

"Thanks mama, you're the best director ever!"

Maybe. Rub the lamp, and HOPE for a genie. Or just rent a porno with me in it. I did milk squirting last year for a company called Sineplex. I will do anal and vaginal fisting (same time) someday. Don't give up hope. There is plenty of whore left in some of us.
