However, performers that usually shoot features for companies like Vivid and Wicked, etc. usually have better acting skills than those than only shoot gonzos (IMHO, of course). G [Link]
MASAMUNE Senior Member 1452 Posts 12/04	Posted - Dec 27 2006 : 2:22PM As far as females, they're all really bad in comparison to the males. I don't know why that is. Anyway: Janine Savanna Samson Penny Flame Alana Evans [Link]

OneLouder Member 203 Posts 12/06	Posted - Dec 27 2006 : 7:03PM I can only think of Marilyn Chambers, who was in a David Cronenberg movie. I think it was "Rabid", and she did a decent job. And Traci Lords was ok in some cheapo cop flick I saw a while back. [Link]

wheat Senior Member You want a toe? I can get you a toe 1131 Posts 4/06	Posted - Dec 28 2006 : 1:52AM I doubt there are 5. no offence to the girls but if they could really act they wouldn't be doing porn. [Link]
saratoga120 Senior Member 1404 Posts 5/05	Posted - Dec 28 2006 : 2:13AM Samantha Fox might have logged more lines of dialogue than any actress in history. And I'm not just talking about porn. She's a really fine actress. Merle Michaels is very talented. Check her out in the R-Rated "Sex Appeal." Colleen Brennan was simply outstanding. Venus. Oh wait, she's not acting. Honey Wilder is good. [Link]

Surely you don't think that John Leslie wasn't capable of a good acting performance sometimes? I think he could have been a great mainstream Hollywood star. [Link]

BrekkyDJ Member Australia 246 Posts 10/06	Posted - Dec 28 2006 : 4:51AM I agree with the earlier about nominating Nici Sterling... she can act and looks like a beautiful piece of crumpet. However, how could you forget... Kylie Ireland Now she can act, and is hot to but... Plus the Super Bonus that's she's a redhead :) BrekkyDJ (Live from Downunder) [Link]

Dr. Nasty Senior Member Asa Akira.....Damn! 3797 Posts 9/05	Posted - Dec 28 2006 : 9:44AM I don't know how to answer this one. Out of all of the features I've seen, most have good sex but horrible, atrocious acting. I mean bad. Like Skinemax bad. Haven't seen Pirates though. But seeing as how no one here listed anyone from that movie, I'm taking it they can't act very well either?! [Link]
absynth Member absynth makes the heart grow fonder 434 Posts 8/06	Posted - Dec 28 2006 : 3:36PM Alot of the 80's stars (in particular the males) had some acting "chops" and yes, I do know a few things about acting. John Leslie, Mike Horner, the late Jon Dough, and Steven St. Croix (who I've seen cut it up in some comedy roles)always struck me as solid actors. Honorable mention goes to Buck Adams and Tony Tedeschi for their roles in "Beaver and Buttface." :P With the females, the acting always seemed to be inconsistant and hit or miss. I did always enjoys scenes by Ashlyn Gere and Debi Diamond. [Link]
Dr. McDreamy Member Flame on! 145 Posts 10/06	Posted - Dec 28 2006 : 5:24PM If Penny Flame had found herself in mainstream motion pictures instead of the adult film industry, she would already be in the company of Kate Winslet, Rachel Weiz, and Cate Blanchett. She would also be dating Jim Carrey instead of Jenny McCarthy. [Link]

BrekkyDJ Member Australia 246 Posts 10/06	Posted - Jan 1 2007 : 12:11AM Here's an unlikely nomination for you... NICO She appeared in Naughty America's "Book Worm Bitches" awhile back in a scene with (I think) Randy Spears. The general though back then in the NA Forums was that Nico nailed the "Nerdy" role 100% Perfect. I watched the scene again last night and had to agree... the way she spoke, dressed, acted... 100% perfect. It sadly seems that many girls in the porn industry think that wehn it comes to the Nerdy Schoolgirl scene, all they have to do is just throw on a checked mini-skirt and glasses - it takes a little more than that. Christian, I think you would have seen Nico's performance, what do you reckon? BrekkyDJ (Happy New Year from Oz) [Link]

alfan Member Lea DeMae!!!! Simply the Best!! 443 Posts 6/06	Posted - Jan 2 2007 : 12:00AM Most of the eighties and early nineties movies were pretty good when you think about acting or saying lines. But, Leslie Bovee and Veronica Hart could really act. As for the guys John Leslie was pretty good. Edited by - alfan on 1/2/2007 12:01:36 AM Edited by - alfan on 1/2/2007 12:02:11 AM [Link]

francios Senior Member 1802 Posts 2/05	Posted - Jan 2 2007 : 9:14AM Unfair question to the current generation of Pornstars. With the straight to the sex / gonzo style of movies now being the norm we don't see much acting compared to the 80's and early 90's [Link]

Cindi Member 7 Posts 1/05	Posted - Jan 8 2007 : 5:28PM You guys who have said that NONE of them can act are crazy. There are soooo many good ACTORS in porn, and I'm not talking about acting in the sex scene. I mean those that do such realistic dialog, and believable charactors that they could be in mainstream. Here are just some of the ones I come up with- Lezlie Zen is an amazIng actress, as are Savanna Samson, HIllary Scott, Kylie Ireland, Kimberly Kane, Stormy Daniels, Sunny Lane, jessica drake, NIna Hartley, Ava Vincent, Syren.... There are a lot of excellent male actors including-Dale Dabone, Randy Spears, Hershal Savage, Ron Jeremy, Voodoo, Mike Horner, Tommy Gunn, Evan Stone, Joel Lawrence..... I know there are more, this is ten minutes worth..... And I am a HUGE feature movie fan, I watch hundreds! I could list some really BAD actors too, lol, but that's not what you asked. :) xoxo, Cindi Loftus CindisNakedTruth.com Edited by - Cindi on 1/8/2007 5:29:39 PM [Link]
mapofhawaii Senior Member 1050 Posts 3/06	Posted - Jan 8 2007 : 5:56PM Agree on Jenna Jameson and Penny Flame. Disagree on Stephanie Swift. I love Stephanie, but she's not a convincing actress. Spears is good. Ashlyn Gere. Robert Bullock. I'm not saying these are the Top 5, but they are good. Oh, and Annette Haven. [Link]

excelsior69 Member 13 Posts 1/07	Posted - Jan 25 2007 : 4:47PM Besides the acting it's equally important to me that they enjoy every inch of dick offered to them. The voice and the things they say are also important. And the way they look in the camera, especially with dick in their mouth. Some midnineties Private eurobabes who can act at your request Meridian (very expressif face). Michelle Wild The french Laure Sinclaire is very sensual. Natasha who stars in "Sex Opera" is a born cocksucker, The way she teases while she sucks dick is smoking hot. Peggy Sue who plays the best porn scene ever, in "Tatiana" puts all porn stars to the test. Apart from Eurobabes: Brianna Blaze [Link]
Anime Nut Senior Member Too cool for Zuul 1925 Posts 6/06	Posted - Jan 26 2007 : 2:21AM Randy Spears cracks me up to no end... but I just can't call him a great actor. Maybe I just haven't seen him in the right roles, but I've never found his performances particularly convincing. Funny, but not convincing. Now Evan Stone and Rocco Siffredi are definitely talented. Even in comedy spoof roles, they still invest themselves in the character 100%. Anybody who does not agree that Hillary Scott is a brilliant actress can kiss my ass. Oh, you're entitled to your opinion, of course. Just know I'll be shoving my ass on your lips. [Link]

Algaliarept Senior Member 3557 Posts 7/08	Posted - Aug 2 2008 : 8:59AM All this time and no one has said Asia Carrera?! Have you seen "Search for the snow leopard", "Appasionata", "A is for Asia" or any of her Simon Wolfe stuff? In search for the snow leopard, after asia and her guy screw in the tent, there is this really dramatic (for porno) dialogue and she was very convincing.
