Officer Dibble
I retract and apologise for what I said in the last paragraph of my last post. I realise now that it's much more likely that what you were saying was that the Badger stuff is the kind of stuff you'd make if there were a better selection of attractive models available.

You've hit the nail on the head. There was a time when I was enthused and energised about making erotic video; I was pumping out all sorts of scripts and sexy concepts. But not anymore. What drove me was the buzz and glamour of working with proper top glamour models, the buzz any such work would create amongst the punters. There was also the more simply sexual buzz of working with girl next-door types (it's wasn't necessary for a girl the look like Silvia Saint to be sexually attractive). But all this has petered out since the turn of the millennium and the dawning of the age of the chav. The whole landscape has changed, the whole culture has changed. Chav birds are not sexual, sensual creatures, they're lairy, shrieking, shapeless harpies, not particularly concerned with sex, sexuality, or making themselves attractive to men. It seems they would much rather be drunkenly rolling around in a town centre gutter, shrieking, shouting and spewing up on a Friday and Saturday night. This new chav bird culture is all pervasive, so even your better class of girl will display some passion killing chav 'attitude'. I find I can't summon up any enthusiasm to work with chavy birds, the punters aren?t enthused either. If they do buy a porno nowadays they are just buying a video featuring 'meat' (another crap Yank expression). The girls don't have much of an individual persona for you modern punter - partly due to the modern girls unappealing chaviness and partly due to the fragmentation of the medium - everyone is looking at different Sat TV channels, websites, DVD's etc, so it's almost impossible for a 'star' to emerge, and be seen as such by common consensus - and that?s if they were star material in the first place.

I'd be guessing this was pre-internet when Quality and not Quantity was everything
Its no mistake that the more you see of the same thing the less it appeals
Saturation is a killer

Who knows, this could be part of a government conspiracy to "give em what they want till they get bored with it" and lets make some money out of these suckers doing so (bbfc)
The good Officer has echoed in variation to what I said in the first post.

OK, so it was a wild theory anyway...but what if it was true? Think of the implications. The wheels are in motion already...Over saturation of porn on the market, sales limited to sex shops, BBFC, a government run body taxing the pornographers...(He says, biting his nails frantically, sweating profusely in a frienzied state of paranoia)

This is absolutely right, and I am afraid that a big part of this whole prob is down to a combination of things. Some of which I mention here. Not in any particular order, but all related, in my opinion, to the problem
1) We are a very very small island. (Word gets round quickly)
2) There is no centre for porn.
3) Table dancing in all its guises. ( to girls therefore, dancing =porn?)
4) Amateur shooters that accept anything and pay stupid money without the first idea of what Porn is all about. ( Girls believe its whats wanted, and learn nothing)
5) Soft TV channels and Lads Mags!!
I am sure there are more reasons, why else would all the top glam shooters now be working from mainly euro stock models.
