No I mean they literally made a porno they thought would be good enough to stand alone without the loving scenes so they re-released it sans those scenes as an R rated movie:

quote:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pirates_(2005_film)

Pirates (also known as Pirates XXX) is a 2005 American pornographic action-adventure film written, produced, and directed by Joone, and produced by Digital Playground and Adam & Eve. The film, starring Jesse Jane, Carmen Luvana, Janine Lindemulder, Devon, Jenaveve Jolie, Teagan Presley, and Evan Stone, features many references to the mainstream Hollywood film Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl.

Producer Samantha Lewis stated in an interview that Pirates was the most expensive pornographic film made to date,[3] with a reported budget of well over $1 million[1][2] and featuring unusually high production values for a pornographic film.

An edited R-rated version of the film was released on DVD on July 11, 2006.[10] Digital Playground also released an Original Motion Picture Soundtrack CD, a rarity among adult video releases.

Were they right? idk give it a spin


I guess they made a sequel with an $8m budget and did the same R-rated re-release though so it must have made money. dunno if that indicates anything other than people will buy any lovely thing with boobies in it but there you go

And they can act like they like sex, with dudes, or girls, or ugly dudes, or old ladies, right? and that's a skill an actress needs.

and theyre usually reasonably pretty, right? like, no worse than Maggie guyillenhall(sp?).

Just spit-ballin' here, but I think more porn stars should try to get into acting. what do you guys think?

OH NO!
Aside from the fact that most porn stars can't act to save their loving lives, the real world cynical reason is that almost every single major Hollywood star (of either gender) is from what amounts to an acting dynasty stretching back generations and that it's very hard, almost impossible, to break into that club unless your name is Chris Pratt. For us plebes, if you are among the most charismatic, good-looking people in a 500 mile radius of your hometown, AND you have enough money to slog it out in LA/NY until you "make it," AND you have the luck of someone who made a deal with the devil at the crossroads at midnight, then maybe, MAYBE you end up becoming a working character actor with steady roles coming in.

Talk shows, tabloids, interviews, photo shoots, etc. are crucial because actual acting is maybe 50% of the job, and the rest is manufacturing interest in yourself through a sense of glamour and mystery. And this brings us to the other reason: It's very hard to manufacture a sense of glamour and mystery when we've already seen up inside every hole you possess in films that end with you covered in cum and spit.

On the subject of the movie Spalding Gray: Terrors of Pleasure :

Wikipedia posted:

Gray chronicles the adventures he shared with his girlfriend, Renee, in the Catskills. These took place in and around a cabin he purchased, there in Upstate New York, including the apparent absence of any foundation, and a furnace located in the attic, which is not ideal, if one thinks to take normal heat-flow direction into account.

Best Wikipedia entry I've read in a while.
