This decade is starting off as going downhill over time, we've gone from shaved, totally hot college looking girls and milfs, to a return of Tatts with a vengence plus almost all movies are IR now, is non-IR a fetishnow? and worse the return of the bush in some cases. The Pandemic and Special Military Op seems to have decreased the Russian/Eastern European product. Worst of all I think is how Only Fans has led to self produced poorly shot and distributed scenes, while I am in favor of performers making a living, I wish they'd let me buy a scene burnt on a dvd, let me add the OnlyFans no adult content-fake out was either poorly thought out or a brilliant publicity stunt. I will admit there are positives to OF such as allowing access to amateurs we would otherwise have never seen, thats what's led to me following a few as the girl next door look appears to be going out of favor in mainstream porn, I wish double vag would become a thing this decade, if I had a wishlist it would be for DV, DP, triple P with DV, more country club college coed actresses and less IR and maybe less scary talent of either sex, Im hopeful this will return but I see no evidence of it and its led to me buying fewer DVDs this past 2 years and this year I day I spent 50% less wit a fraction of that 50% now going to OF
^ good cause the dvd is an old obsolete medium 🥹 Bush making a return? I do hope so. Still only a few performers with big fluff. Tattoos back with vengeance. Yea I'm not a fan. Double penetration? Used to be cool but now I'm over that. Awkward positions for penetration and difficult camera angles. I prefer pussy stretched by big toys or fingered/fisted.
Realistically the first month of a new scene release will have the highest number of views & downloads (so an extra $1000 for the performer) but depending on their popularity might still get $100/month indefinitely if their video still gets 10,000 views from rewatches or new subscribers
And even if only 1,000 views/month ($10/month) that's still an extra $120/year from a single scene and money they otherwise wouldn't get
The same system (1 cent per official view) could be applied if a full length scene is uploaded on the studio's official Pornhub or XVideos channel, so then you'd see girls publicly promoting their fans to watch the free full length scenes from companies because it means more royalties for them
A lot of scenes seem the same. I can't believe people want to watch Angela White doing the same thing every week for Brazzers. It's like being married.
Blacked sucks. I miss the world when PC meant personal computer...
Even Evil Angel's movies are kinda boring nowadays. No new ideas.
This decade could be great! We have such great cameras!
No one wants to shoot a Biden-Harris Parody interracial scene. Man, that would be so much fun! I would rewatch over and over again.
American porn should be like NBA! Bring Chinese actresses like NBA brought Yao Ming! Bring more French girls, make them speak French in the scenes, that's fucking hot. Make Russians girls say they love The USA and they hate Putin in the scenes.
I do miss the old unique settings for scenes an old movie might have a beach, nightclub, back alley, high class fuck each scene did something different and i do miss the period piece movies but those days are long gone.
If mainline companies like car industry, airlines, fast food joints could advertise on the sites, that would bring more cashflow back into pornsites which would give studios a cushion to bring in models as an economic counter to OF etc.. Of course that would require society not to blacklist companies that provided such advertising. Societal hypocrisies are holding things back.
^ Good point. I recall maybe 20+ years ago when some RW Christian group pressured several large hotel chains to stop offering PPV porn. It was a huge revenue stream for them and yet some of them caved. A person's religion tells them what they can and can't do. It doesn't tell me anything (though it is frequently a source of some good belly laughs.)
Did anyone mention A.I. generated porn? Made by professionals or in the attick of your own home. All your dirty pornwishes will be granted. Write your own script, setup...
Real live pornstars will dissapear. A.I. genrated models will do whatever the customer wants. (No waiting for anal anymore)
I think the step-word will eventually disappear and become mom.
No AI-generated porn can capture the magical eyes of Octavia Red or her captivating presence in every scene. Similarly, no AI-generated content can replicate Angela White's intense performances as if there is no tomorrow. While AI porn is becoming a reality, it remains to be seen how many people will be willing to pay to watch it in the near future. AI porn can never convey the same depth of emotion that real stars bring to their scenes. However, the effective use of AI in the industry can be explored further at the following link. https://avn.com/news/novelty/2026-anme-seminars-dive-into-retail-ai-age-verification-181924
Thank you for your reply. I agree with what you write above. That said... there will be a time Octavia and Angela and others will leave the business. I hope that will happen when they want to retire. But I think performers eventually will retire because A.I. porn will be realistic and cheap and real porn becomes too expensive.
It's all about money
A.I. porn used to be difficult to make but every year it becomes more realistic and easier and eventually cheaper. I am an old guy but I beleive that the next generation will jerk of to AI women.
Thanks for the URL although I had hoped for a good A.I. porn discussion.
VR does give a much better sense of scale, but the setup involved is kind of a pain.
AI is great for some things, and I'm sure some people out there will be paying for AI material, but I think wanting to see actual people is going to continue to be the main thing. There's the pure visual aspect of the industry, but I think there is some appeal to the fact that real people come together and put on these performances.
Poking around OF type pages, there is a lot of money flying around, or at least being asked for, for more personal material. Studio productions are kind of more serving as ads for the model themselves. People looking for new follows on creator platforms are discovering new models on studio sites and then finding their link page instead of simply enjoying the studio content. So that's one reason model pay might not need to go up, they aren't really doing it for the money but trying to grow their audience. I think we might see more of a mutualism between creator platforms and studios. People paying for studio paysites to find new faces. People being directed to studio sites to find the higher production value content that performers might make. Maybe models will end up selling studio scenes on their pages, splitting revenue with the studio but also leaving in the watermark so followers will check out the studio.
Optimistically, since it's easier for performers to control their destiny through platforms, I hope we see general conditions and pay improve for performers. I don't work in the industry, but as an outsider it has a bit of a mixed reputation in their professionalism and safety. Cross promotion and improving comp could help draw new outstanding stars to the studios. But also doing everything above board is going to maybe be even more important. It should be as safe for a performer to do studio work as it is for them to do their own self-managed shoots.

The biggest issue I see with porn overall in this decade is there's too many people who think imitation is the most sincere form of flattery or alternatively who are too lazy to create porn scenes that stand out from the assembly line. Don't get me wrong, there are still good scenes out there with surprisingly good chemistry and erotic fireworks but I've seen my fair share of scenes by a single studio that all feel the same rather than each being their own unique thing. I feel like the VMG, Dorcel, Twistys, AdultTime, PureTaboo, FakeHub, SHV/SS, MissaX still manage to keep a number of scenes fresh and unique in presentation.
