83.5 for me and that's the first time I looked at it.
I'm actually surprised that it isn't higher because I seem to give some high scores. I don't think I'm overly generous with the scores rather I think the high ratings are thanks to PU and TBP giving me good information that means most of the sites I join I already know will be good. But with the average at 83.5 that means I have reviewed some real duds too.

Agreed. But I still can't imagine a world without facials!

That surprises me about you. You and I have a lot of the same interests so I just assumed that you were into facials and cum play too. I learned something new...

I chose 'watch it all' because there is nothing that I don't watch, though that isn't the same for every scene. My favorite parts are usually the scene set up if that's well done.

Thank you for the glowing assessment, Sir.
One obvious problem with comparing me, as a "Butt-lover" to Roger Ebert, is that when I give two thumbs up, just what (or who) are those thumbs up in?

Pros: |
- 74 scenes posted
- All scenes in HD
- Stunning models
- Large majority of models are fresh and unknown
- The male talent is rather ‘talented’ if you like big facials
- Updates regularly
- Screenshots and photos available
- TBP / PU discount |
Cons: |
Major cons:
- Links time out after approximately 10 minutes
- Limited options for members with slower connections
Nitpicky cons:
- I had trouble with the MPG files (may just be me though)
- Scenes may be repetitive
- LOTS of ads
- Meaningless file names
- No tags or ability to sort by scene type
Subjective cons:
- 3 anal scenes?? Is that it??
- They’re affiliated with BangBros so watch out. |
Bottom Line: |
Lately I’ve had a thing for ‘casting’ sites and have been joining anything that looks decent. A week ago that led me to this site. And in case you’re wondering, yes, I know that these are staged, but they’re staged so well that a viewer can get lost in the fantasy.
The site dates back to just over a year ago and not much has changed in the way the scenes are shot except for the location being much more upscale in newer scenes. The scenes follow a set formula and rarely deviate from that. Girl walks in, presents her ID, is interviewed, stands and undresses, girl poses nude and fingers herself a bit on the couch, guy standing/girl kneeling blowjob, occasionally becomes guy sitting on couch / girl kneeling blowjob (in some rare scenes with rimming), sex starts with girl standing bent over desk, girl on back on desk, guy laying on back on couch with girl riding, then switch back to girl on knees oral with a damn good facial. Most of the scenes stick pretty close to that formula. Some may find that repetitive, and it is, but it’s saved by the hot female models.
You could argue that even the models are formulaic in that they are all in their late teens or early twenties, all are petite (but not skinny) and all but a few have B or C cup breasts. Given the age group, tattoos and piercings are common but not overwhelming. Most of the models are new to me, though I did recognize a few faces that I have seen before. To say that all the models are good looking is either an understatement or an exaggeration depending on your preference. I say the former, but if you prefer larger or older models, then this site may not be for you.
The site has a very simple layout that is easy to use. On each page there are 12 scenes shown by a large thumbnail with the model’s name and the date of the upload. There are currently 74 scenes uploaded and it appears that a new scene is added every six days. Each scene is approximately 50 mins long.
Opening that thumbnail brings you to a page to access the scene. I’m a big fan of HD material and always download it when it is available, so it may seem odd for me to complain that there aren’t many download options. The choice is HD in MPG or WMV and an MP4 in 750x422. File sizes for the HD files averages 3GB, so this might not work for members with slower internet speeds. I downloaded the WMV version and all of those came in at 1920x1280, 9000kb/s and 29fps. Subjectively, they aren’t bad, but they aren’t the best I’ve seen either. The MP4s look pretty good so they may be a good compromise for slower connections. Still, more choices are better.
One problem I had that may be unique to me is that the MPG files stuttered badly. I tried multiple scenes on two computers and used two players and had the same result each time. This may not happen to you, but before you download a lot in MPG you should test them on your computer.
Photos and screencaps are available too. The photos are 1500x1000 and the screencaps are 1920x1280. The big difference is that the screencaps aren’t available as zips.
The site does support download managers, but the links time out after about 10 mins. Given the file sizes this means that lining up more than three scenes probably won’t work. Also, prepare to rename each file before you download it – they all use the same generic, meaningless name.
One annoyance that I can live with is the number of ads on the site. I don’t mind ads if they help keep the site going, but I had one big problem here. Given that the site is affiliated with BangBros, and BB has a reputation for some pretty unethical subscription and billing practices, I avoided even going near the ads for sites I otherwise might be interested in for fear of getting burned with an unwanted subscription.
I realize that not everyone will share my opinion on this, but I was disappointed to find only three anal scenes on the site. Many other ‘casting’ sites have a lot of anal because the genre lends itself to that sex act. “But honey, the big money is in anal…” This actually leads me to another problem that may not be a problem, and that’s that there are no tags or meaningful ways to sort the scenes. Why this really isn’t a problem is that with each scene closely following a formula tags are probably unnecessary: look at the model. Do you like her? If yes, you know exactly what she’ll be doing in the scene so download it.
The pros far outweigh the cons here when you consider the merits of the site. You have access to over 60 hours of HD porn at a discounted price. The scenes all have some hot, young and fresh models. The production values are high and the scenes all look great. What more could you ask for? I definitely recommend this site. |

I agree that it does seem consensual and the webmaster's comments confirm that. I guess what surprises me most is that there is actually a niche with hot, young women that doesn't interest me. I guess there's a first for everything.

I've been meaning to ask a question about all the Evil Angel BTS/outtakes scenes because I first noticed maybe six or eight months ago that they were locked. That seemed odd to me since all they were are fluff. It never occurred to me that I needed to upgrade. That is certainly some serious nickel and diming!

This pretty much reflects my thinking about this site, except this was my first time joining. I'm new to the amateur thing and it sounds like we like the same things, so I hope someone suggests some other sites.

Interesting information. Thanks for adding it. This is my first membership here and among my first forays into amateur porn and I was really impressed with some of the scenes, but they really need to make key improvements in how the scenes are made available to paying members.
I have a mixed reaction to hearing that your emails weren't replied to either. On one hand, it means that it wasn't just my questions that were being ignored, but on the other hand, it's sad that a small site like this can't even be bothered to reply to member's questions.

It's a bit of a mix for me. Most of what I had was either converted to digital, or I was able to source it online and buy it there. The only things I have left from the old days are about 50 DVDs. I dumped the cases a long time ago to make for easier storage so that pretty much makes them unmarketable now. They'll be in a dumpster someday.

Amen to that. But I'd add to this that the fact that Jules Jordan's DVDs are divided between two $30 sites is also part of the scam. But then this isn't the only site that uses this tactic. They have the basics covered well: they shoot excellent porn, they make it available in a variety of resolutions up to and including true HD, they have great download speeds, they update regularly and the price is fair. So why, why, why do they feel the need to do this to customers???

I agree 100% with what you wrote. Like you, I'm an active and paying porn buyer and it really bugs me when I get fleeced. Guys like us should be seen as valuable customers and not mere marks in a scam. Dammit, I WANT to give these companies my money so they can continue to make more porn.

None of the answers really fit, but chunky is usually a deal-breaker for me. For me it's a lot more subjective than a poll can capture.
Can someone tell me what the English phrase "too skinny" means? English is my first language and I speak it well, but that phrase just has no meaning that I can ascertain... ;-)

No need to explain, I understood what you meant. And I agree that Stagliano was able to produce bum-oriented movies that still focused on the who woman - including her personality. A lot of modern directors don't or can't do that.

Great review, sir.
Like you, I'm a big Butt Man fan. John Stagliano is one of the directors who invented gonzo porn but he was also able to produce some great features. "Butt Man's Wet Dream," as an example of his gonzo work, is still one of my all-time favourite movies. The scene with Heather St. Claire, Tom Byron and Steven St. Croix is probably in my top ten favourite scenes. While I'm not a big fan of feature porn, Stagliano's "Wild Goose Chase" is one of the best in the genre. The story is great (Joey Silvera is great in his role) and the sex is hot. I don't like feature porn mostly because so few attempts get both a good story and hot sex.
As you obviously know, Buttman has taken a different approach these days with his "Stretch Class" series. At first I wasn't a fan, but after watching some of it I became a convert and download whatever I can buy.
I'm also a big Mike Adriano fan, but I can see why some people don't like his stuff. But I also think that he and Stagliano can't really be compared since what they do is so different.

I'm a big JJ fan too but one thing about the site that bugs me is how, like so many other studio sites, they don't seem to take the internet as seriously as they should. I think that in most cases the missing scenes from the DVDs aren't actually missing, but they're posted on JJ's other site, The Ass Factory, where you'll have to pay another $30 to join that. The good news is that once you've joined the first time and get on their mailing list then send offers out a couple of times a year with a decent price cut - so watch your email.
Welcome to Pornusers. This is a great site and I hope you stick around and contribute more.

I like some BDSM (provided it is obvious that the model consents to it - like all Kink sites) and name calling is a big part of that, so I like name calling in the right context.

How the mighty have fallen!
VB was a site that I rejoined several times per year. Actually I was a member there continuously for probably four years. But I think I may have joined for the last time a few months ago. While I didn't notice the number of broken links that you report, what got me was the low quality of the videos. Most of the videos are uploaded in the same resolutions that were being used years ago. The rest of the industry has improved but VB seems to rely on quantity rather than quality.
(As an aside, I re-downloaded all the "Kelly the Coed" series that VB has available. I did this to get the MP4 files to replace the WMVs I had downloaded earlier. The problem is that most of the MP4 files are dubbed versions with different languages. Some sound like German, others sound an Asian language. That's poor quality control, but that's VB these days.)
