Horror porn scenes - it's always ends up looking pathetic rather than terrifying and trust me, I've tried to keep an open mind but it just always looks like one of those low budget B grade movies you see on the SciFi channel tht are so insulting stupid; you pray the actors and actresses involved got a bonus with their paycheck for loss of dignity. Put it in a suitcase somewhere and shove it under a mattress until it's time to burn it on a funeral pyre.

^ It fits in the porn category of it never ceases to amaze me what people will do for a paycheck or what people will let other people do to them for a paycheck.
Pretty much all the Pornbox stuff of today. Grandi, Godshack, Korti - these are just sadistic and degrading caricatures of what porn should be. Too much of their stuff is extreme manhandling, slapping, pinning, pissing and piss drinking, endless daps and prolapses and afterwards a "interview" with a creepy director, like in Vicky Sol's latest scene, where he asks "Were you raped?" and the female performer barely understanding the question, repeating "No no no".
That stuff is going into a very worrisome direction, catering to some very unhealthy viewers.
I agree with everything on the list accept outdoor scenes, because there's no better light than natural light for filming, but my biggest pet peeve of all is over acting, or over performing as some would call it, when I see the models screaming at the top of their lungs, or jumping around, my biggest turn off, and the teen thing, I love newbies, but when a video is advertised as cheerleaders but the models all have fake breasts, I mean c'mon man!

Hands down for me it's the use of fake cum or having scenes that clearly have no visible cum shot.
I really wish that producers/directors would stop using male talent that can't shoot a load because their penis is numb from the use of ED meds and transgendered performers in the role of a top who can only shoot a dry load or a barely visible few drops.
There are numerous performers who's scenes I won't even watch no matter how good the stills look due to this.
It's porn and the majority of consumers want to see at least an average size load.

I understand that the current trend in porn is to move toward features and scenes that mimic mainstream TV shows and movies. I can respect that but here's the problem, those B grade movies and tv shows have budgets that dwarf that of the parodies. They can afford to have CGI and special effects to make a decent product whereas the studios doing the horror porn don't have that luxury. So you end up with stuff that is so cheesy and silly that it makes the sex that follows feel like a joke.
In terms of setups and "storylines", do we really want ANY of it? Why do producers insist on force-feeding some scenerio to set up who these people are to each other or why they're getting naked? She's brushing her hair. He comes up behind her, embraces her and starts kissing her neck. And then it's ON. All I need. Anything else is useless clutter that I fast-forward through or edit out.

I think you might have misread the thread there - it's what YOU wouldn't mind seeing less of. The idea that your love of gonzo is shared by the ADT community or worldwide fans of porn is a little ridiculous. I don't even assume that what gets me off is going to work for others so I can't ever really say 'we'. I'm not above adding a line at the end of thought to see who might agree with me. I happen to LOVE a good setup because it adds a level of spice to a scene that would otherwise be mechanical pounding or a pair of bored female talent who are going through the motions and can't wait to be done. While there's nothing wrong with gonzo, I get tired of the routine 4-5 positions because for all the visuals, I can always tell when the female talent is more preoccupied with her angles than she is with having an authentic orgasm that is going to push me over the edge.

I found myself thinking recently, is there a way for a porn parody to go beyond just palatable? Is there a way for a parody to work . . . and the answer is no because not only is humor the default setting in most parodies but they don't even really try to hit a high mark. I'll give an example - consider Criminal Minds, can you imagine anyone being able to create a series of scenes based on that creating the same level of nail biting tension and intrigue combined with steamy sex and explosive orgasms? That would require going MissaX or PureTaboo level dark and few have been able to do that well.

Remember how I said I hate the sideway licking of pussy? Add trying to kiss sideways to the list, yes I recognize it's done for the viewers but it looks unnatural and awkward. Doesn't really fit in scenes unless you're doing some weird alien themed shit. I have no problem not being able to see all the action provided the vocals tell me enough of what's going on.

I'm getting tired of that wild eyed look of shock in the female talent's faces, there's one or two stills that always feature that look which I just don't buy. From the moment they reach legal age, girls are getting inundated with unsolicited dick pics so the odds of anyone having one that is actually humbling or impressive outside of Dredd, Girthmaster, Alex Jones, Lexington Steel are extremely low. Save the shocked face for someone like Brickzilla who has a lead pipe for a cock.
I enjoy hot girls taking big loads from hairline to chin. Anything that distracts from the lady's face, like glasses, masks or writing on her forehead with lipstick I'd prefer to see less of.
There are many issues, which include: all the acting/dialogue/roleplaying (this is porn, not the film/television), family roleplay(step parents, step brother/sister), interacial that is really only limited to black men and white women, the lack of racial diversity among women, the fact that the industry mainly is hiring women with the " local girl (white) next door.
^ This won't be a popular thought, but given that most porn is shot in the US and the US is the dominant market for selling it, the fact that the US has a complicated history of race relations is probably a big factor. This is breaking an historical taboo, and a taboo that a lot of Americans still hold near and dear to their hearts.
It's not about inclusion, and it's not abut pushing a narrative.
It's about the numbers and what people will buy. If the market for WeFuckBlackGirls was as big as the market for BlacksOnBlondes, you'd see a lot more of the former. But you don't because there's not. You can suggest nefarious thoughts in the backs of pornwatchers around the world, but you can't make people buy porn they don't have much interest in when there's a substitute that they prefer that's readily available.
It *is* about a narrative, but it's a narrative enjoyed by many, many quasi-heterosexual white men, and that's who has the extra money laying around to spend on porn, for the most part. You are ENTIRELY not wrong, but there is a narrative at play that companies capitalize on. And I am not saying that it's the companies' fault that the narrative is there. Gotta sell what people will buy!
This happened a lot in the 90s and 2000s and it's completely annoying. The climax of a great scene and the camera goes to a close up view of the guys face. I don't want to see the guys face when the scene peaks. I'm convinced the editors are trolling with this stupid shit. It's ruined so many otherwise great scenes.
^ I don't miss those shots either. The funny thing is that in some BTS videos, they show that the close-up on the guy is shot after the scene. He's just standing there with the camera in his face putting on an exaggerated "O face." I suspect this was because most shoots only used one camera, and the directors wanted to show that the guy came. That's odd, since I think that most viewers could figure that out based on him ejaculating.
Too much POV. I see quite a few of sites/studios (passion-hd for example) that had little to no POV shots that now shoot a major chunk of the scene it in POV. You cannot enjoy the movements, chemistry or even the performer's body properly and it drastically reduces the quality of the scene. I feel it has to do with cutting costs and POV being easier to shoot.
^ I'm with you on POV. I generally avoid scenes or entire sites where POV is frequent or even the entire site unless there is a model there I'm collecting. Good POV isn't great, but bad POV (shaky camera, too close, etc.) is terrible.
There's more than enough porn out there to be wasting my time staring at a guy, especially when the bulk of male talent is unwatchable to start with. . .
Absolutely! Mark Wood is one of the worst for this. He'll be doing a great anal reverse cowboy scene and then pops his face from round the back part way through to just ruin the ambience! It's just off-putting.
The whole cuck thing is a huge turn off for me personally. Basically any scene that has spare 'participants' just sat around is just a distraction for me. If they're not actively involved get them off set!
andI agree. 1. POV is cheap on every level. The scenes are set in cost-free or low-cost interior locations. There is no script to speak of - the onus for providing any 'dramatic' content in the scene appears entirely to fall on the capacity of the female talent to improvise a role (and she is unlikely to be paid extra for doing so, given the whole cost-cutting schtick of the abomination). The cameraman/male talent is either characterless, at best, or just plain exploitative. 2. Good POV is an oxymoron. 3. POV porn is proof that less is in fact way less - and there should be none of it.
I'm going with the "step" family member scenes. Been done to death and to be brutally honest, it's not really "family fun" in that sense. It's basically like fucking a newly adopted sibling. Big whoop.
The POV rimming shots. yes the girl has great eyes and a good tongue, does there's really no need for JUST her face in the screen. I can't tell what she's licking
Less Goon material stuff. As an adjacent the PMV's that have godawful trap EDM or Afrikan Bass and terrible music. Gimme a BodyBangers or Deadmau5 soundtrack anytime. You're not a music video director; stop with the shitty iphone edits.
- Almost any talking - Smacking the ass - Any shot of the guys face - Fake moaning - Giant collagen lips - Any cosmetic surgery in general, except very good boob jobs - "(step) bro / (step) sis" yeah no you're just lying - ADS
This is getting nitpicky, and I won't post any photos because I don't want to be seen as if I'm picking on a specific model, but I really dislike dark red lipstick. I have no idea why, but I just thoroughly dislike it. It's just too unnatural maybe. I prefer subtle lipstick or just some lip gloss.
But I accept that there are probably a lot of people out there who love it, so I don't complain.
^ I'm 100% with you. There are plenty of gorgeous women out there performing who just don't need loads of make-up and other artificial enhancements. 'Subtle' make-up to just accentuate a girl's natural beauty is always far hotter for me. Lips (either through silly colours of lipstick or being pumped up unnaturally) can so make or break a scene. I just don't think girls realise how off-putting it can be to guys. Such things seem to really impress other girls but not so much the paying customers!!
^ I don't want to derail this thread, but I guess this does fit. Like you, I prefer a natural look over heavy makeup and 'enhancements." Covering a model's freckles with heavy makeup? The director who insists on that has made an enemy for life.
I guess to meet the OP's original intent, I'll phrase it this way: I'd like to see less of scenes where models with freckles have those covered up with makeup. Free the freckles!!!

I wasn't planning on finding more things I want to see less of but I couldn't help myself. I realize fauxcest isn't going anywhere but the baby talk is just beyond insulting; I saw a scene with this and while the scene itself is good - the dialogue is beyond cringeworthy with references to 'special spots' and 'licking where I go pee.' Why do I say cringeworthy and disturbing? Because at that point, the talent isn't pretending to be someone in their teens but rather someone who is younger than even that. I don't mind female performers who don't want to be in G/G scenes but no self respecting lesbian or bisexual woman is going to have long nails unless she wants her partner to end up in the ER needing some stitches in very sensitive places. I've seen this one too many times in a G/G scene and I feel like the talent ought to be dismissed immediately or go get your nails cut accordingly. I've literally seen the exact same room and bed in 3 or 4 scenes; with the housing market the way it is - there should be more than enough room for you folks to find new porn houses so to speak to shoot in. That's a level of laziness that is just aggravating and insulting honestly, I would like less porn scenes overall that all look the same; I feel like there was a time when you could pick out what studio shot a particular scene from a still or a clip because of how it was done while nowadays, too much of it looks painfully interchangeable. What I mean is that with the exception of the VMG and maybe AllHerLuv/MissaX, from GW to GFF to SHV ot Reality Kings - the scenes all look increasingly standard rather than one studio picking a particular style that grabs the focus of the fans. I've seen more than a few porn scenes that are so maddeningly vanilla with an absence of any kind of meaningful intensity that it's like watching a painfully bad horror movie where the 'fright' doesn't even enter into the equation. I'm talking scenes that are almost reminiscence of the kinds of real life sexual encounters that end up being the reason why one person withholds sex from the other or decides to file for divorce. More erotic intensity please and less of the vanilla carefully orchestrated stuff that does little to get fans hard. I know I'm not the only one who feels this way because if you go through the threads, the scenes with that high octane connection and chemistry absolutely blow the other scenes out of the water.

Porn is an industry of a thousand niches and, as such, it is inevitable the thing(s) one person wants to see less of will be the very thing(s) that other people want to see more of - except, perhaps, anal, which seems to be the one thing most (but not all) porn fans can't get enough of.
Given the above, other members will likely disagree with one or more of the following things I would like to see less of: - creampies - multi-girl lesbian scenes (i.e., more than two performers) - strap-ons - free-use scenes I actually don't watch scenes that feature the above, so in practical terms I cannot in fact see less of them than I already don't. Nevertheless I would prefer that less pornstar resource is directed towards making such risible stuff.
I share concerns regarding performers in lesbian scenes having long fingernails (^), while I have already advertised my intolerance for POV scenes earlier in this thread (which remains unchanged).

Awkward women doing GG. Just please stick to doing the genres you are actually semi-comfortable with. Just now I saw this group scene mentioned with a performer who I love the look of, and there are not enough people that look like her in the industry, and the GG shoot she is in could have gone to someone else like her who won't look disturbed the whole video.
- Fake cum shots. Extra points deducted for having a real cum shot AND a fake cum shot in the same scene.
- Creampies - especially with closeups - looking at you Brother Lovers and Porn Fidelity.
- Weird color grading. Brazzers and some Reality Kings scenes have this weird, washed-out orange look in most of their scenes.
- POV scenes. Time's up on these. I want to see both performers.
- Slapping. Random face and tit slapping is just gross...especially in some of the 'hard' Euro scenes where some of the guys really seem to be working through some personal issues.
- Mike Adriano and that coconut oil or butter or whatever the heck he's using in his scenes these days. Yuck.
- Out of shape male stars. Some of the new guys need to hit the gym and work on their grooming. I can see why Manuel Ferrara, Mick Blue and Jason Luv are still popular. They look good.
