LP keeps going downhill

[Tastes Like Ass]

I have been preoccupied with other things lately, and haven't had too much time for porn, but I still check in here every so often, and it seems that each time I do, things have gotten a little worse than the time before.

Giorgio is still putting out mostly good scenes (although some of the more "edgy" ones, like the "used and abused" stuff, aren't my cup of tea). But the other studios have lost what made them special. Gonzo, in particular, has become almost a carbon copy of typical U.S. porn, with almost every recent scene featuring one or more of the following things:

1. Girls covered with tattoos, to the point that some of them look like they just got out of jail.

2. Those awful "magic wand" vibrators that have somehow become a staple of porn, even though, as near as I can tell, very few fans actually like them, and many (like me) absolutely despise them.

3. The annoying antics of Everhard the Retard, who seems to be in literally 80-90% of the recent scenes.

If I wanted to see scenes like this, all I would have to do is go get a cheap membership at just about any U.S. porn site, and I could download thousands of them. I have no idea why LP would abandon their trademark style to try to copy a style that is so readily available elsewhere, for a fraction of the cost.

[Boshanks]

I disagree.

[pastaga]

LP has been quite good lately with a nice selection of models and some intense action. I won't put Eric on my fav male performers, but luckily we have Chris Diamond and Jamaica...

Only missing the former diversity we had with pee, creme enemas, and manhandling (old vids with Misha are the best for this). Oh and also the models selection on Sineplex is less my taste and I prefer the girls with pale skin than Mexican tan...

[JohnMcSpunkencock]

Couldn't disagree more. Your opinion is valid as it's all down to the individual. However, this year has started unbelievably!!! It's all systems go!!

[magizi877]

I can't recall any girl wearing so many tattoos she becomes offensive to the eye. And no one girl reappears often enough to become annoying if she is not your type. IMO the problem is the opposite, often, our favorite girls don't appear nearly as much as we would want.

The toy play seems very minimal on GG scenes, and gonzo seems to be letting the girls do their own SEXY moves more freely and reducing the amount of time they spend with the toys. Which are both good things IMO.

For me this year has been great.

[Bjergmand]

The only thing I can point fingers at, is the lack of pissing scenes... Idk if it's just slowly becoming illegal or what?...

The owner no longer wants them produced for the site, the decision was made 11 months ago.

Here's a look at the Alexa rankings over the past 12 months, for LegalPorno

Looks more like an uphill trend to me

Now the fat old hairy one in Budapest... that's another story

[JohnMcSpunkencock]

So, LP is officially going uphill not down. It's been a great 2016 so far and it's gonna get better still you better fucking believe it!!

[shark1]

But wait a minute, the fat hairy bastard said his site is doing better than ever! Obviously he is in denial and trying his best to keep the few members he has left.

@shark. That avatar. LMFAO

Holy shit. . . . Now I knew LP was popular, but I didn't think it would be in the top 10,000 Alexa rankings!

It is amazing when you think about it. What is essentially a fairly niche hardcore porn site on a rapid ascent in popularity. Just think about that for a second, give or take one of the top 10,000 websites on the planet. A phenomenal achievement. Hopefully some of the lurkers will do what I did, stop lurking, sign up and enjoy the best porn money can buy

And who'd have thought Luxembourg was such a nation of wankers? x

i absolutely agree to what Laura says. LP is putting out better and better DAP and TAP content all the time, being the worlds benchmark for double anal and triple anal porn now!

[dap-addict]

And then we have those calling for less DAP! LOL!
Dont wanna think they willingly want to harm LP - of course not - but porn fans should understand that they will profit too if their provider has growing sales rates!

[Boshanks]

And then we have those convinced the rise in popularity is because of DAP

[chrisssj2]

Meh without piss this site is boring. Once in a while a nice model pops up with a hot scene. But not a lot.
I kinda dislike alot of the girls looking Russian -a-like. I mean a few sure, I love it even.
But I feel it should be a bit more varied.

[dap-addict]

Have you even checked the sales rates, Boshanks?
And for eventual counterevidence just check the top 10 scenes each month and count what acts sold best.

[Boshanks]

Unsurprisingly you're equating sales to a particular act and ignoring all the other contributing factors that make up a scenes appeal to others. This was the same argument made by the fans of piss content, which on paper always sold extremely well, and yet since it's removal the sites growth is still increasing month on month. You can't see the wood for the trees because you're obsessed with one component.

[JohnMcSpunkencock]

At LP it's all upwards on onwards for all of us!!!!

Exactly, even though I buy a DAP scene with a girl I really like, I would rather not see the tip fucking so prevalent and always hope for a lot of DP. Sadly, there is usually too much of a DAP focus.

Piss sold well, too, but once it disappeared LP filled the gap with a higher DAP output.
But of course you are right that there are also other factors that sell a scene not only the sole sex act performed in it.

[kidloco2]

ad 1. Disagree! Defo it's not full of ghetto & straight outta jail biatches. WTF? Personally I don't like tatoos much, but for example Mila Milan is just amazing and a few more with tatoos too.

ad 2. agree. Giorgio has far better toys variety and selection (the new pink one is perfect).

ad 3. Disagree 1000%. Erik saved gonzo studio! Of course he was a bit fresher 6 months ago and he started a bit repetitive (who wouldn't?), but still 10000000% better than the 'other' LP veterans

It certainly is a phenomenal achievement, I agree ever so slightly with what the original poster said about LP (Tastes Like Ass) but only just. With regards to Laura, LP is the BENCHMARK right now for pushing the boundaries of dapping and tapping. Where else can this be found, (critically, with the same quality??... Nowhere) if anything, LP have gone on steroids in 2016, and keep pushing out better and better content, I say.. Long may it continue!

[Sharpshady]

sadly I kinda agree. And whats up with all these fat/ugly "porn-stars" lately?! Real beauties like Foxi Di, Jessyka Swan etc should have been replaced by equally beautiful ones. Wrong direction with these fat butts and tattoed girls LP...

[JohnMcSpunkencock]

There are no 'fat' or 'ugly' performers. It just all comes down to that good old word again, variety. We all have our preferences but diversity is paramount.

[pastaga]

I won't complain about how girls look, that's something personal.
But lately we mostly had beginners or beginner-like scenes. Even the one with Silvia and Taissia had nothing special. The only one which attracted me was the one with Susanna Melo, sadly I'm not much into her.
2 weeks ago luckily we had Alexis and Luna.
And according to previews there will be some good stuff in the pipeline with Arwen, Gina and Susan. But supermodels deserve super scenes, otherwise it will still be boring.

And same goes with Giorgio who seems to do only DAPs... Last scene I liked was the "bdsm" one with Timea. Waiting for the promised variety...
And same with Sineplexico, the only performer who seems able to put a bit of passion in the scene was Lola Bulgari. But still no scenes has reached the level of the best russian scenes (models, action and visual quality).

Not a bad thing then, my tickets will last longer...

[hjohjole]

My self i really don't mind the "beginner-like" scenes, i think they are exiting in their own way even if they many times are a little softer. And i would argue that they are getting better.

Latest first time scene from Gonzo is with Pamela Stanwick. Its the standard Gonzo 3on1 packed with anal and dp. If you compare it to the "New girls gape to" scenes from 2013 and you will find that it is on a whole different level and that we have come a long way since then.
Latest first time scene from Giorgio is with Ornella Morgan (if we disregard the fluffer scene she did i guess). Yeah.. there is really no issue here, Giorgio just daps the new girls in their very first scene.
Latest first time scene from Sineplex Scarlet Blaze. Ok, i didn't watch this because the trailer showed a lot of vaginal sex. And over all i would say Sineplex is the studio with the weakest first time scenes.

Anyway i appreciate this type of scenes and think that even a 1on1 can be interesting if done right. I guess there are some people here that would be perfectly happy if this site had nothing but 300 scenes with Isabella Clark, but im not one of them.

[pastaga]

The problem isn't because of softness.
It's because the lack of creativity from the director : it's always the same scheme, like there was no interaction between the girl(s) and male performers : boring solo play with exagerated cam contact, deepthroat, pussyfuck, assfuck, dp, ball deep then cumshot. I'd like it better if performers feelings were listened.
Also about the solo play, what about showing a girl reaching orgasm with hitachi after the b/g play, with her face covered in cum ? Would be nicer than 10 seconds of pleasured face as intro...

[hjohjole]

Yes, you are right about that for sure.

Gonzo is all about the dps and Giorgio is all about the daps. Sineplex is all about... eh i don't know actually, i haven't watched to many of their scenes in the last year to be honest.
But at the bottom of it all each studio/director have their own style, creative vision and way of doing things. Sure Giorgio is doing some experimentation's and is actually trying to change things up. But the core content of thees new scenes is still pretty much the same.

And i think it is a bit unrealistic to demand to much change there. I mean if i was a member on Mike Adrianos website i wouldn't expect him to start shooting more in the style of Jules Jordan or some other director just to create more variety.

Maybe it is time to bring a new studio/director to LP. I think that is probably the only reasonable way to get some more variety.

[pastaga]

But we had that diversity like a year ago. OK pee was anice addition, but that's not the only point.
Look at old scenes with Lola Taylor, Tina Hot or Kendra Star, male performers look way less bored than now...
So yeah I think it's time to renew the male cast and change for a director who has more creative ideas.

[cyberhog59]

An idiot are you. Fuck off to another website that caters to your narrow ideals. You will not be missed.

[pastaga]

Well compare the best sellers (http://www.legalporno.com/best-videos) with the scenes we had these last two weeks and see what I mean.

[kidloco2]

It's obviously not going downhill, it's changing the porn history with so many niches like DAPs, TAPs and even QAP.
Right now they are bringing models from all over the world to Prague. Prague became porn center of Central Europe again.
There's plenty of work for ppl who love this business and a lot of money spend and earned.

It's going uphill and this is the only way they can make our porn wishes and dreams come true.

[Pissing]

I don't belief that best sellers lists....
Not 1 scene with pee in the top 50.

[Giorgio Grandi]

... Sure Giorgio is doing some experimentation's and is actually trying to change things up. But the core content of thees new scenes is still pretty much the same...

I did not really start to experiment yet, I miss the technology for shoot in the way would like. It will take just few weeks more I hope, for really start to make experiments.

Thats precisely true. I think we are entering a new phase that will take this site to new heights.

Your new avatar always brings a smile to my face, in a good way of course:) Not sure what the sun is meant to represent though? X

I was wondering who's gonna comment my new avatar and I knew it's gonna be you . Thank you. The funny picture in avatar means the day is always nice and shinny when there's new LP scene on. Live long, live strong, love LP.

I love DAPs, but TAP and QAP are meh to me. I prefer to see giant dildos for that purpose.
The problem is not here. The problem is the repetitivity. The girls are stretching their asses to the limit in every scene, but nothing more, so it become repetitive and boring. We have seen Arwen DAPed so many times I prefer to watch one of her old SOS scenes rather than buy that new one by Giorgio...
IMO LP would be more attractive if they combined hard anal sex (which they are known for and very good at) with other things : girls orgasms and squirts, a bit more BDSM, enemas and other insertions, more interesting G/G play, more perversion, humiliation, worshipping, female domination... Give their videos a soul.

[Tastes Like Ass]

Well, it looks like no one actually responded to the specific criticisms I made. Instead, people either said, "Oh look, they're making a lot of money!" (so is Wicked; does that mean they make good porn?), or "Oh look, they put 2 dicks in the ass, and then 3 dicks in the ass, and then 4 dicks in the ass, and then 5 dicks in the ass", which I guess is great, if you think porn isn't about anything other than how many dicks you can stuff in the same hole. Personally, I need something more than that.

As for my actual complaint, that LP is becoming just like U.S. porn, since no one seemed to get it, I will explain it a bit more clearly. If you go back and look at LP (and before that, Sineplex/Evilutionplex, etc.), the things that always distinguished it from American porn were:

1. Classier looking girls, without all the tattoos and hairy bush that characterizes U.S. porn.
2. A focus on shooting the kind of action that fans wanted to see, which among other things, means none of the stupid vibrators, which the girls seem to like, but most fans hate.
3. Fetishes that are rare or nonexistent in U.S. porn, like piss and cream.

Now, LP is shooting more girls with lots of tattoos and/or pubic hair, they are starting to incorporate those stupid vibrators into more and more scenes, and they have totally abandoned piss, and virtually abandoned cream.

So, I will ask again: Aside from more MAP (multiple anal penetration), what makes LP any different from typical U.S. porn?
