Porn IS a Genre



Porn, yes porn. This IS a genre of film, disagree if you like but you’re wrong. As a partisan reviewer I feel I must make a comment on the genre.
Now forgive me Rusty and Dewayne I won’t be reviewing any one film because of a few reasons, well a lot of reasons, I don’t know that may titles, I don’t know an incredible amount of actors, and to be really honest with you I usually download clips from films rather than whole films. What I am going to be writing on is a brief history of the development of this genre and where I see it at the moment, and where I feel this genre is going.


With the advent of video the porno flick moved from a story ala John Holmes as Sam Strong trying to find the woman who gives the best blowjob in the world for his wealthy client. Many scenes but you just had to watch on to see how good she was. Video has brought about the end of the story or plot in porn, good thing, bad thing, no. It’s just a thing. Now if you have a video camera and money for a hotel room you can make a porno, this is the biggest misconception with regards to porn. I am not saying that this isn’t true, because it is, but like all films you need star attraction. Yeah you can make the film with Belinda down the road cause she’s a renown dirty girl and doesn’t mind getting her gear off for a camera, but it not that simple. We need to consider angles, takes, actors habits and needs to perform. When all these factors add up wrong porn becomes testy to shoot.


We need to credit the makers of the easiest genre sometimes. Imagination is lacking constantly, but it isn’t the most important factor, I mean everyone is going to have sex, there isn’t really a twist here. But (I say this having never shot porn) the porn director has to be pragmatic in their decisions. The director who will shot their subjects directly at a mirror is lacking. A director that stays on the one shot (you know the one constant penetration) is lacking, and to me suggests not enough coverage. Too long on the foreplay, no foreplay, ugly actors, there are a myriad of things that can make porn bad porn.

Then it comes to “can you handle it”. Most people say “yeah I could make a porno” but could you really? Do you really want to stand there and watch this go down. Do you want to be there for the icky goings on we don’t see on the finished product, bloopers in porn must be just horrible to deal with.

Like all films there are good ones, and there are bad ones. Porn is no exception there is good porn and there is bad porn, and like film it is largely up to the viewer. I have a friend that complains that some of the girls are “too porno” he prefers real like girls but I think he is in the minority. Some like orgy’s some like one on one. Some like threesomes some don’t.

In today’s day and age porn has less of a taboo about it. This does not mean we are living in a second age of Caligula it’s just that porn has always been watched by people and these people are being more honest about watching it.

So where is porn heading? Well unfortunately I see it getting worse. I see more home girls and guys making there own and sending it out on the web. Thus amateur porn will take over, though even this home job film making will have an audience because when it comes down to it, most everyone want to see other people have sex, its just some are honedst about it most are not.

I wonder how the explosion of internet porn has affected the adult retail industry. I mean, why would you go out in public to buy your one-handed viewing material when you can download it directly to the anonymous sanctity of your own home?

As for porn being a genre. Well, it's something. Might as well call it a genre.

This begs another question: is porn an artform?

I would hazard the answer yes it is a art form, but low on the list of art form. I mean it is a work of art a great blowjob but not in the same league as a good book.
