Straight people, for some reason, respond very well to parody porn movies. I guess they think of sex as funnier than a gay audience does. There are a few gay parody movies like "Shaving Ryan's Privates" and "The Jersey Score" and "Finding Levi's Johnson," but they're rare.
I directed 7 of the 9 scenes for "So You Think You Can F*ck" but aside from the rather goofy title, it was more of a serious reality show and competition, not a lot of funny moments.
Gay porn tends to be less funny and light and tends to be a lot more rough and serious. Darker. Which, when it's all men on screen, I guess that makes sense... less brevity and more testosterone.
Seriously... other than those who work in the porn industry... who takes porn seriously? Like, who watches porn for the story line plot, dialogue or character development? I've seen better acting in Mentos, The Clapper and those Trojan dildo commercials. you fast forward through the... "acting" bullshit and get right to the blowjob part.
The person who takes 'Foreskin Gump' seriously... probably has some issues to resolve. Porn just makes it easier to knock one out. Also, guys who say they don't jack off... there's a term for them, they are called 'Liars'.Allen Fieldhouse, home of the 2008 NCAA men's Basketball Champions! Go Jayhawks!

You would be amazed. Last year I worked on the new Francois Sagat movie called "Incubus" which was a bit of a genre-buster. HUGE movie and yes, people talk about the acting, the plot, the cinematography, the artistic merit and the message behind the madness. It's been a Mega hit already and Titan is promoting it solidly for another 8 months.
This is a PG-rated trailer... safe for this forum.. no nudity, but you can see the amount of production quality and work that went into it. Still night not be "safe" for work if you have an uptight boss.

you are correct.. movies like that are supposed to just be funny and not be taken seriously.0 -

There were a bunch of criteria.
But the guys would be matched up by a drawing out of a hat every morning. The couple would then get a while to choose the setting at the resort (we had a whole resort booked out for just us for the days we were there) and then have a couple of minutes to do the set up and plan the scene. The actual "porn" scenes were judged by an audience vote.
But they also had daily "challenges" that they had to do which were judged by the three directors (including me) plus they had sponsor guest judges from companies like Stockroom and Wet.
The winner got a year's contract as a spokesman for the Wet Platinum lube, Trojan condoms, a huge Stockroom prize pack, a big cash prize (I can't remember how much) and a bunch of other stuff.
honestly, the coolest thing for me was that it was shot in 3D which meant that I got flown to the location a few days early and got trained how to shoot in 3D which makes me one of about 5 directors in Hollywood with 3D direction experience.
I also go down in history as the first director to do an underwater 69 shot in 3D. when you watch it on an HDTV with 3D, it looked like there was a cube of water floating in your living room with two people inside it. it's a stunning visual and something I'm really proud of. And I don't care if anyone doesn't like that.
I was offered a job working on a few "mainstream" movies for one of the big Hollywood studios because of my 3D training but wasn't interested in making mainstream movies. I'll make movies I'd watch myself.0 -
