Gonzo studio closure - Tribute thread

She was still called Zusen Sweet when I finally got over that than complicated admission procedure to get the later Susan Ayn 2nd DAP (sz248: https://pornbox.com/application/watch-page/27363), a 3on1 with Vinny, Jon Jon and a 3rd stud. The studio was still called Sineplex CZ and should start releasing scenes as Gonzo only May 2nd 2014 with a 1 scene only DP by local girl Betrix Monday - https://pornbox.com/application/watch-page/28101 (sz449)

ImageImage Sweet memories from another Epoch: Zusen Sweet 2nd DAP @ sz248.
They cut her eyes in that 2nd rcdap take actually, but then I didnt mind.

Soon later early Summer 2014 I got the 2nd DAPattempt by Nataly Gold with 3 studs trying do get her broken in finally, but to no avail. That was after Giorgio Grandis successful DAPbreakin' in February and thus that Gonzo scene had only historic value to me. And that basically defined Gonzo in my porn user habits, something nice to have, but not really the essential.

This said when Ria Sunn told me early this year how sad she was to see Gonzo as the old LP core dying I knew it was really serious: viewtopic.php?f=96&t=25243&p=876246&hilit=Ria+Sunn#p851455 - :( :( :(

But a bit more than half a year later that Rebirth of Gonzo thread (viewtopic.php?f=108&t=68556#p1025216) was started and as an old nice-to-have-them-around user me too, I started to nourish some home.

Well, all in all they gave me about 700 DAP scenes.
About 15% of their DAP output I didnt buy (yet).
There is also about 300 0% pussy scenes.
Ot these only 10% I skipped due to girl just really not being my type.

Worst period was their short condom and pussy sex only time.
Best was the very start as Gonzo with all those Czech, Slovak and Russian girls makeing LP famous.

Which meaningful Gonzo tribute memories can you share?

I'll also try to remember the great girls they scouted for porn.

...and the later DAPbreakin's they shot during last 5 years!
Wasnt it Vero Leal they broke in first finally?
:D :cool: :confused:

Finally:
I cant believe, but Gonzo end also means no chaos-Petra anymore!
Freddy Gong on the dole!
Last X-mas scene 2023!

Memoriable moments...

From like SZ200 till ~SZ800 when they were pulling in European A-listers. Misha Cross, Cayenne Klein, Sophie Lynx, Tina Hot, Amirah Adara, Foxi Di, Marina Visconti, Jessie Volt etc. Nowadays it would be same as having Tiffany Tatum, Jia Lissa or Angelika Grays on Gonzo.

Second thing that comes to mind is the Veronica Avluv stint. Overall a nice closure for probably the best anal performer ever.

I think this scene with Susana Melo was the first one I bought:

https://pornbox.com/application/watch-page/28303

This scene was released in 2014, but I think I subscribed to LP a year later or two. Gonzo was outstanding these days, and I bought a lot of scenes back then.

The peak was probably the "monster cock squad" that made Vero Leal and others a star.

But, sorry to say, Omar / MexicanMF ruined everything. I haven't bought a scene in years.

So, thank you for the good times, but I won't miss what Gonzo became the last few years.

Why would you say that?
Omar seemed to have pretty much cloned Luis camera style. Problem was the funding last 1-2 years. As I understood he shot his scenes in a kind of franchising deal with gonzo and actually shot much more than they would actually take over, or they would take them but at really low prices. Thus he didnt sell them all he shot in time. Hence these crazy delays.

He shoots everything the same way. Model starting with lingerie and heels, then losing the heels and most of the times stockings as well. Every. Single. Scene.

No diversity at all. Not fully naked, not heels on.

I remember discussing this with him on the forum, but he didn't care. Too stubborn. He shoots what he likes, not what the customers like.

Sorry, Gonzo was better before him. I would have been happy to spend a fortune on Gonzo scenes, but his style was not for me. And he was not willing to change it even a bit.

Generally with Gonzo there was never a culture of discussing with users. :(
I had the feeling Omar was cashing in on Luis legacy and the good old days of the Monster Cock team, but for him it was sufficient to be a Luis clone, he wouldn't be creative himself. Also basically not with getting new girls. He had Petra book those who were imported by others for 2-3 scenes usually and thats it.

A solid style, though. Until the end I got 50% or Gonzo DAPs and 5% of Gonzo DPs, but not like before almost 100%.

I want to comment about how things could have been different but, I'm going to follow Giorgio's rhetoric that basically boils down to "we don't know what we're talking about" and considering XXX hasn't said anything about this, it doesn't seem to matter either so..... whatever.

Feels bad tho. :(

This said the lastest LP star Nuria Millan shot in August probably looks like an Omar discovery. If it was the other way round and Giorgio had discovered that Spanish women GIO would have released her first and then in usual steps starting with a 1on1 by Dylan. Here it was a Nuria Millan DP intro fellowed by a DAP.
Gonzo might have another DAP in the box, but more than 3 scenes they wouldn't rather book anymore at once in 2023, too cash stripped they were.
But they still could detect great Europorn talent! :cool:

To me Gonzo is LP, Gonzo is AV, Gonzo is PV, Gonzo is PB royalty, it should not disappear ever, it is the highest rated, and the highest subscribed studio on the site. Not to mention it is the only Czech studio that had somewhat a bit of accessible pricing after all the other main studios went completely nuts with their ticket prices tying to alienate every royal costumer ever.

The camera work was good, the lighting was good, the videos were long and well made, decent edits, decent angles, decent girls, some good imports, and yes sometimes they didn't have as much prone bone as I would like to, but they were still doing great in my opinion, and from time to time they had some good bombs.

These are really worrisome news, I wonder, who is behind this catastrophe.

That said, if this is an entire revamp like Sineplex CZ that changed to Gonzo, but is still the same studio, then I guess that's OK, the show must go on as Freddy Mercury used to sing.

We saw it with Natasha Teen Productions, it turned into Natasha Teen Films soon after David Ram left to do Latin Teens, so now I can have multiple carpets and makes files more manageable, plus it is nice to have full site collections.

Tell me anyone that has downloaded all PornWorld scenes, I don't think anyone has that many external hard drives, at some point is good to have a new beginning.

Personally I believe Natasha Teen Films is better than early Natasha Teen Productions, girls are hotter, cameras look cooler, scenes are longer, they have the best variety of anal sex positions in the entire industry, and lots and lots of black dicks for hot girls. While is true it is not perfect, too many edits, too many cuts, bad sound, they still have some of the most decent prices on the site with incredible high quality content, so yes, a little bit of a new beginning is fine.

I rather have an entire NRX Studio killing it with some of the best girls than they getting mixed up in a confusing way along other Giorgio's Lab scenes. So yeah, some level evolution is OK.

But if what we are talking about they disappearing completely, that's a big no, and it shouldn't even be allowed.

There isnt something like that in the air as far as I know.
IF of course real estate owner would decide to let that famous place run I could imagine 1-2 of their studs crew to try taking it over and infuse some new blood. Cant be Luca focused more near Bologna probably but Freddy actually tried a few own studios in the past. Max is in another period of life currently, if so Freddy or EE I'd reckon.

Gonzo was legendary but it has been a slow and painful death. I will miss it but I'm glad it's been put out of it's misery.

For reasons we do not know XXX stopped giving a shit. However, it changed porno in many many ways but maybe that is for another thread.


RIP

Indeed when that 35% price hike happened mid April 2022 xxx had different illegible explanations but for his own pupil Gonzo he decided to stay at old prices. Only much later they adapted a bit to common TKT price level, but all the time stayed around 20% GIO and AGO.

For April 2022 take for instance French MILF Victoria Nova, a Gonzo discovery btw.
4on1 Gonzo DP intro at 6TKT (pre-price rise): https://pornbox.com/application/watch-page/221967 (sz2867)
6on1 Gonzo DAPbreakin at 8,2TKT (post price rise, not applying to Gonzo): https://pornbox.com/application/watch-page/222020 (sz2870)


To green: In August 2022 xxx suddenly left forum discussions only contributing 2-3 times until beginning of Oct same year. He resurfaced in May 2023 for very few comments until mid August. Last 4mt completely nothing! :confused:
Not sure thats a business decision or due other reasons like health for instance.

Edit: Gonzo price level stayed around 20% below GIO and AGO similarly produced based on Prague going fees and commodity prices.

LOL, now I have really nothing to buy anymore... GIO is full of PISS and wet scenes, the other studios are crap imho, excepting MamboPerv.
I think I will be able to enjoy just 2-3 minutes of specific scenes of other studios, but I defintely wont buy them but use the other way. I will not pay 10-12 TKT to fap for 2-3 minute of content where the other 57-58 minutes are piss, tip fucking, circus acrobatics.

Wow, that's wild Gonzo is shutting down. I have soooo many great Gonzo scenes. I wasn't aware of the decline in quality though. I haven't bought new scenes from any studio in a few years. I had such a massive catalogue of scenes I bought but never watched. So I decided to watch most of those scenes before I started buying new ones. Sad to hear the closure of a once great studio though.

It could be foreseen; the "decrease" of this former superb studio started many many years ago already. I would say since Luis left it went worse.

Thinking back when I got first attention of Legalporno; it was when former studios NoRestForTheAss, Sineplex stopped and obviously relocated to Prague. More by surprise I found first teaser videos from LP and was super excited. The one I was really thrilled about was the one starring the Romain sisters (Sandra and Alice) with few guys getting DAP*ed.

An endless series of stars went through that studio; Timea Bella, Nikita Bellucci, Lana Fever, Blanche Bradburry, Billy Star, Cayenne Klein, Linda Sweet, Ria Sunn, Belle Claire, Mea Melone, July Sun - those are just a few names that come into my mind, there is much more to remember. Later on it was Veronica Avluv who really rocked the studio to a new level, her nastiness compared with the way the studio produced their videos was something not seen before.

Well, looking back and at all these stars. What I have noticed is that these were real "beauties", few or almost no tattoos, pee drinking was not the primary focus of the videos. It was their performance, the actrice were the real focus and the monster crew gave them what we're all looking for. Good and hard fucks, DP, DAP, TP and sometimes even TAP. It was less a circus act that it became later. Also have to admit that I am not the biggest fan or all those Latino girls that later became the studios focus. From that moment on I have continuously lost interest into the studio. Don't get me wrong, this is no racism statement; it's just based on personal preferences.

Memories will remain (very good ones!), whatever Legalporno (or now Analvids how they name it) is doing.

That's excellent news
SZ used to be a topnotch studio from Sineplex creating awesome intense, rough, brutal double, triple penetration of euro cum bucket whores
Ever since it became a cookie-cutter copy of the pissing rubbish produced by GIO it deserved an agonizing demise
No respect for it's origins and what Sineplex stood for, no originality. So this was bound to happen and I hope every other copy-paste version of GIO and GIO studio die a similar death

I am convinced that the urine scenes and people's horrible bad taste in their preference for female models destroyed the studio.
I always wanted to talk about this last thing, people's taste for female models is terribly bad, having so many beautiful women they always asked to bring the less pretty ones...
What I mean by all this is that the users themselves destroyed the studio.

Amen to that
Plain vanilla 3-10 DP/DAP/DVP scenes without Piss, nor Black-only
This was and will always be the success formula that stood the wear of time
and please stop casting and selecting chicks you force into tip fucking DAP it's boring, have them in a separate website with softcore pee/cage/cake/toy play... rough intense hardcore is not their league

Couldn't agree more with you. Over the years somehow, producers maded a single, united opinion school, that every Latino girl is hot. I guess they were hot immediately after birth, as a babies, not when entering porn. :rolleyes: And of course that is the truth, same as that every tall, Black guy is a good basketball player. :rolleyes: Of course, some girls are hot... But making such a hype for all of them, lol, insane. :rolleyes:

Gonzo was a top studio when Luis was in charge but even then they had some weird business modela, keeping scenes unreleased for months, even years. Still remember when they released Lola Taylor 10on1 after 2 years keeping the dust. My happiest porn day ever and still most fav Gonzo scene ever. Basically, they were in coma, ever since Luis and Monster cock team left Prague. Omar sometimes was making a good stuff but overall, he is not even a shadow even of avarage Luis scenes. And the last few months, girls selection was simply terrible.

But still, this opens a lot of questions and probably deserve a separete topic... "Gonzo shutdown, impacts on Prague and euro porn"...

Impacts on producers, performers and the fans.

Producers, 2 remaining studios, now when Gonzo is definitely out, need to face with loses, compromises. I guess it was lot more acceptable for them, to share the girl for 1-2 scenes for Gonzo, then let her to go GIO/AGO for 4-5. Dont know, maybe if they hire more people and start shooting 2-3 scenes at the same time, girls and boys still can have same or similar amount of shootings.

And again, must go back to Latinas. For the last 10 years, Prague is one and only epicenter of hard hardcore porn. And of course, Prague producers pays better than Latino studios. Disregard comparing incomes with cost of living, because those girls spend most of the money at home anyway, no matter where they shoot. So now, how they will accept that one possible source, Gonzo studio is out? They became what Russian and Ukrainian girls were before that disaster and shit. More expensive to shoot in Prague than at their home countries, but still, I guess, cheaper than CZ, euro girls, even with travel costs, everyone maded acceptable maths. Otherwise, we wouldnt see them that often.

Also, CZ and rest of the euro girls, how large piece of cake they will get after this? Should they go now to Latino studios and even live there lol? :rolleyes: :confused:

And of course, the fans... Should be facing now with a chance that never see again their fav girls in their fav studio, if they became exclusive for the opposite studio that they dont like.

Dont know, I was always surprised that no top studios at the places like Greece, Cyprus, Malta, Portugal. With exception of summer months, when they could face with evecuations due to fire, should be good and profitable places even to live, not just to make porn. And some outdoor stuff could be shooted even in February, March. And some girls could even buy or rent some place there.

Anyway, I strongly believe that some new center and studio in Europe is necessary.

There is many factors for this trend but main one is always supply and demand. Local girls cant cover demand and war in Ukraine combined with EU visa and travel problems for Russian girls cut a big piece of that talent pool out. Latino girls could replace it, the more as they dont complain much and do basically all they are asked to perform.
You may add some factors like Omar being Mexican himself or like Luis and Natasha Teen founding their own studios back home during pandemics and thus highlighting Latino girls easily accessible for Prague HQ.

This said I dont think this was the reason of Gonzo end but lack of funding and lack of interest by xxx due to whatever reasons be their personal or business.

And effects: As already mentioned it basically means 3 scenes less for most imports and EU wide commuting girls. Absence of Gonzo makes porn work trips less attractive to them and talent pool will get even smaller.

I would like to believe that just as quickly as Gonzo died, he will also quickly rise again, because these releases of scenes of 2-3 scenes a week are a complete nightmare, let a new bastard come and invest in a new team of fuckers, let these fuckers fuck girls night and day, so that the video came out every day as before and it would be desirable that there be a variety of actresses, and not ten scenes with the same whore whose holes have dried out

That Betty scene doesnt even appear on my pornbox landing page. Because nobody cares and Omar has probably cashed in once for this very scene already. He probably wont get more payment anyway. And owner of his scene just obviously doenst care whether it sells or not. How can you run a business like this, lest a porn studio! :mad: :confused:
