Remember the good ‘ole days when you could buy a porno and not feel so guilty because at least it had some plot line? Well, that time is over. Now you’re just a pervert. The world’s strongest industry isn’t exempt from the economic downturn, after all. The adult film industry is forgoing longer, plot-centric movies for simple, concept-based collections of scenes (think: MILFs, glasses, brunettes, etc.).
Apparently, I’m not the only one upset about this (and BOY, am I upset!…not really). Some porn stars are mourning the loss of dialogue and any resemblance to a real acting job. Now they’re delegated to scene after scene of hardcore sex. But, who’s surprised? It’s porn! People aren’t watching it for the suspense – they’re watching it for the sex. Even more, the internet is taking over all traditional visual media – Hulu, anyone? If anything is over 10 minutes long, then most people move on to something shorter and more entertaining (read: more penetration, less time). Therefore, if porn movies are shot in segments, they can be easily broken down and disseminated throughout the internet more quickly.
