POLL: Why do I still want gonzo?

Dwindling gonzo releases since Jan 25th and than even 4 days in a row without a gonzo scene in February made a lot of us shiver.
Me, too, because 7-8 releases per month instead of 30 means even less DAP scenes for sure.
Plus: It's xxx who started with 0% pussy first, only later GIO and partly IV took that successful format over for their studios.
But more important in general terms is of course that gonzo has all those years been the balance to GIO and IV, a well needed rivalery, in style as much as girls scouted first.
Also over time they also started to cater for a different audience or at least different fetish needs, linked closer to pussy friendly US porn tradition.

For me its no question: LP without gonzo is un-thinkable! Its the big No-No-No!!!
And I hope whether management considerations or just logistics may be behind that slowdown, I really hope xxx listens and feels his responsibility for years long fans and supporters.

Luis is finally back in gonzo Prague studio shooting again, but nobody knows how many new films he shoots and for how long. :confused:
But we all know this is what happened in 2020 so far - only 3 gonzo releases in 13 days! :mad: :( :(

Thus please everybody vote why you personally still NEED gonzo!
And why you will support gonzo with your hard earned money of course!
Ta! :)

Like I posted elsewhere:

YumYum74 wrote:In general I don't have to economize at all, but January was especially easy. Just a selection of Gio/Gio's Lab scenes and the occasional IV scene. My bulk purchases are usually a combo of Gio/Gonzo, so without checking I would estimate my purchases so far this year have dropped around 40% maybe.

So...thanks Gonzo? :confused:


Gonzo is and in my eyes should remain a counterweight to Gio scenes. The last couple of weeks LP felt off for me, since there were only Gio and Gio's Lab releases. There's IV of course, but that's not really my thing, I buy IV scenes on and off but only with models I really like, so that's by no means a substitute for Gonzo. :(

I agree with YumYum74.

I also already posted elsewhere:

I think LP needs Gonzo (or son-of-Gonzo) as a quality production powerhouse making content to rival Giorgio's and keeping both studios on their a-game.
Otherwise LP might as well hand the keys to Giorgio and rebrand LP as GrandiPorno.

Exactly my feelings, YumYum!
I sure shop much more at GIO and GLab, but I simply can't imagine LP without gonzo. IV is a different ligue, and interesting addition for sure, but no counterweight for sure.

I also buy almost all gonzo DAPs, but not all of them at once. We know the sales and sometimes I wonder why Luis sticks to his slow step-by-step approach, but than this is exactly that anal porn style counterweight working very well on profit side if calculated through carefully. Of course its set to loose some money in order to gain more later, maybe this has lead to that slowdown which is already inherent in Luis shooting only half time of the year. But here remedies are known and style as well as ideally also studs would still always differ.

Ok so here's the thing.

I don't post here with great regularity, but I will say I am hopeful things can turn around a bit. Gonzo basically is LP for many people I am sure, not disrespect to Gio either
he does some great scenes, but tipping DAP gets tiresome after a while and there is often a lot of tedious filler.

The Colombian South American girls were an amazing step forward, but then suddenly that seems to have ceased apart from Polly P, Emily P etc.

I find it confusing that there seems to be a formula that is so obviously popular, but is being fairly ignored.

I think I have enough I want to say and put it on another thread entirely.

Bottom Line: - without the scenes and style of gonzo LP will really become far less interesting, the Gonzo studio style is really a hangover from 2014-16 when LP was smashing scenes out
with an amazing lineup of girls like Sandra Luberc, etc etc

Bringing the Colombian girls in like Scarlett really gave a hope of a whole new stretch of life, but thats kinda gone it seems, and were back to pretty scattered scenes.

I'll make a longer post elsewhere

IV releasing new scenes every day and taking new girls and girls from GIO and Gonzo, like Poly and Ciara and Gonzo not releasing anything.
Gonzo is by far the best studio in legalporno, with the best male performers but it looks that its not able to keep bringing new female performers to the house.
Ian Scott, Chris Diamond, Luca Ferrero, Charlie Mac, Christan Clay, Alberto, ...
This are the guys that make amazing hardcore gangbang scenes...
Gonzo canĀ“t stop to releasing scenes with this guys...
for me this is the soul of legalporno.

I have collected scenes from 20/24 studios but by far the most come from Gonzo (over 40%). For me they are the core of LP. I've always preferred them for pretty much all of the above. They're the most reliably exciting production for me.

My Giorgio purchases have started to shift to the lab. I think the new girls just piqued my interest more than the established girls I already own multiple scenes of.

My IV purchases have gone up because they take in Gonzo girls I like, but in terms of what I enjoy those scenes are the most hit and miss out of the big three.
