Digital Surround Sound is coming to porn. From www.thedigitalbits.com: "Looks like DTS [a special surround sound system (it stands for Digital Theater Sound) which features 5 discrete audio signals - so you could have different moans or audio coming from 5 separate speakers in 5 different directions (plus a subwoofer). It's for people with home theater systems - DVD player, wide screen TV, and a DTS stereo receiver.] is gettin' busy with... X-rated DVDs? Yessir, I've got a nice, full-color, glossy brochure from Nu-Tech (the folks behind that dubious Legend of Mulan DTS disc), which indicates that at least 4 of their upcoming adult DVDs will feature DTS 5.1 audio. Now, I'm not gonna list the titles here, 'cause you know how adult film titles are - pooooooor taste man. And this is, after all, a family web site. I'm no connoisseur of the whole X-film milieu, but it is worth pointing out that the adult video industry has long driven the home video market - a trend which has definitely continued with DVD. There are literally hundreds of adult DVD titles, and while many are of poor quality, a small percentage of titles are really pushing the envelope in terms of DVD's capabilities - Doom-like 3D interactive menu screens and more. I have to say, however, that I'm having a REAL difficult time trying to imagine exactly what benefit the added clarity of DTS 5.1 surround sound would give an adult DVD. I mean, the only sounds on X-rated films are the cheesy music and the... well, we won't go there. You know what I'm talking about. I can hear the testimonials now - "Gosh... it almost sounds like they're right here in the room!"

XYZ: "Is there anyone in porn that has been subjected to more rumors than Nici Sterling? Nici dear, ever notice how the rumors started after you and your hubby had that dust up in Jim South's office?"
Email: "Every interview with a porn chick, no matter whether it's in print (from AVN to mainstream newspapers), on TV or on the internet, the same standard answers are given when it comes to why they got breast implants: "I did it for myself", "I had a girlfriend that had implants and they looked good and...", "I saw the other girls with implants, they looked good and...", "I did it for the fans" (this one has fallen from use, but was popular in the early breast implant boom) and now the latest story "I wanted to do it all along, but didn't because people in the business and fans told me not to". Interesting that on TV at least, a few have blurted out that it was to get work, or that they were told they'd get more work if they got implants."

Pat Riley: "Daddy Redd, a black amateur series done by a guy in Philadelphia, has been pulled from the video stores for use of underage performers. Discussing the matter with my local video store owner today and he tells me: 1) Only some of Daddy Redd's tapes contain alleged under age girls but the distributor is pulling all of them back and giving full credit because they can't tell which ones. 2) Daddy Redd himself is apparently a fugitive. 3) There's further nasty news to come on the underage front from the non-amateur LA producers but the distributor doesn't yet know which tapes have to be pulled."
Someone stop Martin Brimmer aka Rodger Jacobs before the editor of New Rave shows up at a Post Office with a submachine gun. His increasingly harsh reviews suggest that masturbating to pornography does lead to madness. Today's poison for Jolly Rodger - French gay porn.
Jacobs replies: "Well,
after a long 9 hour day of screening French gay porn and writing ad
copy for that (By the way, did you know that French men are rather remarkably
hung? Maybe it's something in the water) I am preparing to call it a
day. Since I wrote 15 video reviews this week, a ton of ad
copy, and two adult video screenplays (A TASTE OF MOCHA for Videoteam,
and I can't remember what the hell the other one was) Jill and I are
leaving tomorrow for a much-needed respite. We will spend a day and
an evening in beautiful Monterey. Don't you wish you were here instead
of
swimming with the sharks in the polluted waters of Porno Bay?"

Luke F-rd phoned Gene "the Nature Boy" Ross, VP of AVN Editorial, Thursday to compare penis size.
Gene: "I want to be the baddest boy in porno. Stevie Hirsch and Russ Hampshire are pencil-necked geeks."
Luke: "I'm the baddest boy. You're in the pocket of Vivid/VCA."
Gene: "I'm going to come out of their pocket and do something about it. I am the most electrifying man in adult entertainment history."
Luke: "I fear that if I print that, Russie and Stevie will call up Paulie and get your fired."
Gene: "It can't happen. I've got pictures of all of them in compromising positions with farm animals."
Ross has never appeared in any porn videos aside from his alleged personal collection of taped conquests by a hidden surveillance camera.
Luke: "The Nature Boy. It sounds gay."
Gene: "You tell him that [famous wrestler Ric Flair]... You might get a flying elbow, a few hammerlocks and a figure four leg-vine.
"Luke, I find out what is going on out there."
Luke: "I just wait for people to email it to me. Cut, paste, another chapter in my great book."
Gene: "I look under rocks and in garbage cans, like a true journalist."
Luke: "I've never pretended to be one of those."
Gene doesn't like breast implants. "I like natural girls. Small breasted women. But big, blonde, wide hips and athletic. German shot-putter types.
"Why should I give you the scoop? So you can get interviewed by Entertainment Tonight? No way."
Luke: "What is your number of sexual conquests now?"
Gene: "Over 700."
Luke: "I got half of a blowjob when I made the cover of New Times, and another half after Entertainment Tonight."
Gene: "That doesn't count as sex."
Luke: "I'm Mr. Monogamy, a poster child for the religious right."
Gene: "You remind me of Ralph Reed, former head of the Christian Coalition."
Luke: "I like him. I'm infiltrating this industry to gather information for the FBI."
Gene: "That's too close to the truth to be a joke."

Wendy Whoppers writes to Luke: "Just wondering why it is you pick out the absolute worst review ever about me and post that. I have also have many great reviews in AVN. Not to mention getting "Film of the Year" award from AVN for "The Bottom Dweller". The funny part is that as bad as the claimed the "Wonderful World of Wendy Whoppers" series was those videos are still in production and for sale on hundreds of adult sites. And those films were made in 93 + 94. We are now in 99. So obviously they have a ton of staying power and plenty of people are still buying them and my fans continue to rave about how much they love the series.
"If you just have some reason you personally dislike me then I would rather for you to be honest and just post the fact that you don't like me. If you are in the business of posting reviews then I think you should at least be a fair and post the good along with the bad. Journalism is about reporting the whole story not just reporting what promotes your opinions."
Randy Spears will perform and shoot for Jill Kelly's Perfect Pink series.
