Is porn taking itself too serious

[planeterotica]

Yes but the trouble is everyone is using the same recipe, you know what they say you seen one porno you have seen them all, now i dont suscribe to that but one way you can make a porno look different is by using new faces and to attract new people you need to offer more money but the UK is only a small market and because of legal reasons its difficult to sell your product wheras in the US where there is a lot more money to be made they attract new talent all the time.

Andy Ide tries hard and some of his results are very classy and skilfully presented, even in softcore, but sometimes art overcomes the real reason for the programme and the viewer is left with beautiful sets, classy clothes, lovely women and very little worthwhile action.

Do you take the way you provide for your family seriously ? Making money is a serious job and porn is now an extremely difficult business to make good money in. Most Top Shelf mags are dying on their feet. Video and DVD sales are dreadful and most websites just pay for themselves. All the talent get very good money these days male and female. American distributors don't want to pay top dollar for English product. So you are now lucky if you can get back what you put in (and over a 6 month period as well). So if you can make a product and afford to wait for the sales to come you might be alright to go on and make the next one.
Marty, if you can do such a thing, do it ! Get clients interested in UK product and then go and collect the product. You'll be shocked.
Do we take it too seriously ? When it's our living you're FUCKIN RIGHT WE DO !!!!!!!!

If there is any money to be made in selling British porn in the U.S. it will be the Yanks that make it, Brit girls have been going over there for years and doing porn they get paid a much better rate than over here but once they have done the circuit thats their lot so how can you then shoot the same girls once they get back to blighty and hope to sell it to the Yanks.

Your original question was not thought out enough and was therefore extremely offensive. You are not in the business and certainly don't understand the business.
I'll give you two simple comparisons. Our main stream Film Industry compared to the US is beyond pathetic although it can make incredible movies and has a wealth of talent. It's exactly the same in pornoland.
And if it were as easy as you say to just go to LA and sell our product don't you think someone (apart from Lindsey Honey) would have already done it.
The successful people with Ferraris have financial clout behind them. Ask Marino who has a wondeful product (Road Trips) how serious and tough it is.
