Reading an article about a new erotic film I wondered if you watch films which ones peeps here like to watch to get juices flowing, is it really just regular porn (and nothing wrong with that) or are there mainstream films people find a turn on too?
"Nymphomaniac star Stacy Martin talks sex, nudity and porn doubles
Jane Birkin, stars in new movie, Nymphomaniac, which follows the erotic life of a woman from birth to the age of 50."
Other mainstream films we found with entertaining parts ;)
Secretary
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang
and not forgetting the TV series doomed to failure: Swingtown
and success: Californication
What floats your celluloid boat?
Must have a storyline of sorts,stylishly dressed women,erotic bedroom scenes,decent background music,def not Bendover types.
The secretary worked for me on many levels, always enjoy watching it.
Generally though, if I'm just watching something for my own gratification, I'll prefer to watch a girl who's really turned on by the slaps her bum's receiving, so not someone who wishes to be tortured, but a girl who is really getting hornier with each slap.... and of course if she's a black girl then she's ticking all my boxes.
I rarely like 'porn' films. I like well produced actual sex with real people not swollen mouthed, fake-everything, orange-tanned bimbos pouting all over the place.
I also like erotic 'actual' films such as Dirty Dancing, Ghost and Game of Thrones - plenty there.
What I really like is well written erotic fiction. THAT really gets me warm around the ears. I've had a go myself and really enjoyed writing it - to the point of having to have a lie down once or twice during the process. :giggle:
We like porn a lot. A lot. Lol
In fact it was watching porn and discussing with each other the things that we liked that led us down the road where we decided to experiment with swinging, to see if we enjoyed doing those things as much as watching them and fantasising.
We tend to prefer porn films which are attempts at movies, rather than the other way round or sex films without plot. A few of our favourites are by Wicked pictures, notably Roommates and Manhunters (although that is a little long, even for our purposes, lol)
It's generally nice to have some context for sex, as far as we're concerned, otherwise its harder to get turned on by it.
There are plenty of non-porn things which have got us hot in the past though. H seems to like almost anything starring Andrew Lincoln or Jason Statham. I maintain that one of the sexiest scenes ever to be broadcast was Scully getting a tattoo in the X-Files. ;)
We watched this together the other night as we hadn't seen it ages and caught it when it was on.
Strange how when we first saw it (10+ years ago) we could of never imagined going to a masquerade party, now being part of something like that in the party sense is of great appeal.
Guess there's a strong link to films watched and the potential for ideas to be forged and acted out in later years as relationships/tastes grow.
There seems to be a severe lack of erotic films, or perhaps there are many and its the exposure and cost of marketing which is to blame (understandable). Then again who's to say that porn isn't erotic art, which itself would be down to personal taste and interpretation of porn/erotic film.
erotic films dont really do it for me.
but one film. the machinist.
had me going back to watch it again as the ending just stopped me in my tracks.
it was only watching the film again that everything fell into place.
and i still left the cinema in silence as did the other people around me.
"Factory porn" leaves us cold, it is just so contrived and mechanical. We love home made stuff, no matter if the lighting is poor, the action often obscured and zero plot. So what? It is the real thing!
Our first exposure was shotly after we were married, we got a video cam as one of the wedding presents, no cheap thing in those days! Another couple we got to know through work asked if they could borrow it to film a christening of their nephew.
When they returned it I noticed there was a film cartridge in it, they had agreed to buy their own and keep it. Curious I put it in the TV video player and hot on the screen were our friends, getting naked fast and then hard at it. Oops, the wife walked in then, demanded to know what I was watching, so I showed her. Instant turn on for us both followed by annoy the neighbours sex in the living room, replaying the tape several times.
After came the guilt, we had spied on their private lives, suppose they realised they had left the tape in? How could we face them? Easy it turned out, a week or so later they asked if they could borrow the video cam again. We thought they had realised their mistake and hoped to get their tape back before we noticed.
Sad to see it go we spent a wild evening watching it and being inspired. We had wine too and after a while it seemed a great idea to add our own contribution to the end of the tape, at the time we figured it would help resolve any embaressment they might feel.
When they returned the cam next time it had a new tape in it, and even wilder action which included some cheeky waves and winks at the camera.
The pattern was set and we enjoyed several months of fantastic video exchanges which we still recall with great excitement.
The sequel? Well we tried to take the logical step (to us anyway) and move to a real life experience. Wow, they had more hang-ups than a double wardrobe. But we never lost our love of home made films and photos, but it would be years before we were seduced into an actual meet up in real life again.
Was just going to say we're different in so far we like the home made stuff rather than formal films, then we saw Zanussi's post! So we're similar in that respect.
Although we've not been lucky(?) enough to watch our neighbours own attempts we do like the really basic home made clips on the web. Something very honest about a normal couple having sex in some form and of course there's every type of porn to fit our every changing mood and fantasy - a bit of bi, voyeurism, outdoor etc etc. All good.
The fact these clips are a bit rough and the lighting is poor adds to the experience in our view. It's just (mostly) genuine people having fun and sharing their experiences. And after watching half a dozen clips we're usually too aroused to care and move onto ourselves anyway :-D
We find the formal porn films just too predictable and dull. Call us old fashioned, but watching the inevitable blow job followed by said monster cock pounding a skinny woman with false assets and a soundtrack akin to a donkey giving birth while she orgasms for 30 minutes, just doesn't rock our boat :-) I'm sure it will for others though and that's the great thing about porn. Something for everyone.
The best stuff we've got is our own of course! Surprising the effect an iPhone video clip of a close us of ourselves has on us while we're having sex. For e.g., the wife getting a clip of me entering her from behind isn't something she would normally get to see but we love sharing that image together. It's the simple things :-D
Not amateur however more of a slip...
Karla DeVito with Meatloaf anyone?
