Excited? About a movie? That doesn't happen much. I said the Mummy because Tom Cruise has been constantly banging out watchable films for decades so I imagine this one will be, too.
My wife and I go to the movies about once a week, so we will probably see all of these...except maybe the Planet of the Apes movie, which I'll probably watch at home at some point. We just saw the Guardians movie. It was almost as good as the first one...but not quite. Use that as your gauge.
The Kingsman movie should be interesting to watch but honestly the thing I remember most about the first one was the weird deal at the end where the locked-up older woman said something like "Save the world and you can do me in the ass". Then in the end he goes back to her! That was pretty shocking for a mainstream movie. Wonder what they'll do this time....
There are a LOT of sites that provide one looooong movie and a few that break things up. The problem with some sites is that they include everything in one long movie. So, I pull down the stuff I like or sometimes I pull down the whole movie and edit it myself. That takes time, though, so it has to be pretty exceptional to begin with.
Traditional live-cam shows can be hit-or-miss and can get really expensive very quickly. It's like picking a girl for a back room lap dance. Even if the package is nice, you still don't know what you'll get. The new-style sites like MyFreecams or Chaturbate have so much content that there is usually something interesting to watch. 100 girls just sitting there talking, 10 nude and 5 or 6 really getting into themselves. The nice thing about these sites is also that they are "open" so rather than have to pay to get in, you tip because you like what you see. Totally different model and it seems to work. Something for everybody, I guess. With girls like Emily Bloom and several other porn stars appearing regularly on Chaturbate, it can be a pretty interesting place to visit.
I look at TBP/PU and I also look at the preview pages for content, models, etc. I agree with what Rearadmiral said. Too many sites embellish, omit or outright lie about their content.
Occasionally, I'll find a site that doesn't have a review yet. If I join, I always write one!
The best porn stars exude a level of confidence, presence or uniqueness that sets them above the rest. That confidence can be seen in the work. There is a revolving door for the hot but incompetent porn stars. Only those who are dedicated and relatively smart (smart enough to know they have to know how to act) stay very long. A very few actually go on to do other acting or hosting gigs (i.e. Sasha Grey, Michelle Maylene). I think it is too bad that US censors draw such a hard line between movie acting and porn acting. Game of Thrones has plenty of soft-core porn and some pretty brutal sex, but it isn't presented as porn and there is a lot of other stuff going on so that somehow makes it OK. The HBO series Sparticus would show a great, fairly explicit sex scene in perfect unison with some brutal fight or bloody murder. Totally fucked with peoples heads. Wasn't porn, though.
Oh, and don't get me started about movies that present themselves as porn or a glimpse of something porn-like...like 50 shades. Dumbest movie EVER but a lot of people went to see it because, you know, they think it might be porn.
Way off topic but...Last week my wife and I went to see Ghost in the shell with Scarlett Johansson on a Friday afternoon. The other people in the theater were all middle aged men...by themselves. WTF was THAT about?
I think it would survive but the emphasis would be different. It would require scripts and dialogues and good looking men who could actually act and speak and spend more time doing so than doing actual sex.
I have to admit, though, marketing porn to women MUST be a huge challenge. I sat my wife down with my VR headset and played a POV VR video created for women for her. Her response? That's the angle I see sex from all the time. I want to see something different! So....she wants non-POV hetero VR porn created for women? WTF? ...for me, POV VR porn is pretty much the bomb.
Oh, one last thing. If you go look at Chaturbate, there are a LOT of web cam dudes there. So somebody must be watching..... (I haven't looked to see if it is men or women, though...)
VERY Funny! :-D I totally get it. The AAA-Cup (There, I said it again) girls I have dated were small enough to lift with one hand, which could be a lot of fun, but I prefer boobs that work well as bang intensity meters without risk of knocking me out. Variety is one of the spices of life, though, and a couple of my favorite models (Lorena G for example) don't have much up top but more than make up for it in other ways.
Heterosexual anal sex is one of the most over-rated, over-used and generally incorrectly portrayed things in porn today. The sequence most commonly used, regular sex, anal sex then a blow job without cleaning up at all, should make anyone watching that isn't into copraphelia gag. Times might be changing but I've never had a partner that enjoyed it, not to mention got off during it. Feel free to chime in if I'm wrong. I could be.
I understand what you are saying about the photos, but the vids? Do you download them or stream them? If I'm downloading material (which I am), what I don't want to do is spend a lot of time sifting through and deleting stuff I don't want. That means I am deleting half of the material in each set because EACH SET includes one of the aforementioned fetish sections. Yes, I like ALS, too, or I wouldn't keep coming back. I like it for the attitude. But each time I sign up, I do it because I forget how ridiculous some of the fetish material is.
You are suggesting that I just skip the part of the video I don't like or skip the images that I don't like. In order to skip them, you have to LOOK at them and looking at stuff you do't like pretty much defeats the purpose of visiting a porn site in the first place. MANY other sites separate out the straight material (in both photos and video) from the more fetish-like. Some even break them out into channels or separate micro-sites. There's no reason why they can't do that here, too. None, other than it would be slightly more difficult for the webmaster (even though he would have more sets to publish)
I like ALS and I enjoy the girls, but they've been using the embroidery hoop for DECADES now. It isn't sexy or erotic and I'm really sick of it. By breaking up the 200+ photo sets or the 25 minute videos, they could cater to their audience much more directly.
That's funny, I always thought the more attractive models always ended up at ALS Angels, at least that's how it was in the beginning. I would read about a popular model's photoshoot in the blog at ALSScan, then I would find out that the shoot was only over on Angels. I even commented about it on one of my early reviews. I suppose this is only a little worse than, say, Met Art listing additional sets of the model you are looking at along the bottom of a page even though many of the sets are on a different site.
In any case, Scan used to be the really young, really skinny, small breasted girl site and Angels was the site where the young, C-cup or better girls and pros went. I think it is still that way to some extent. I do not think there is a D cup anywhere on Alsscan. The delineation is STRICTLY a way to break one site up into two to generate more revenue as the type of material is identical.
Yes, the Caribbean trips were nice. But the industry has changed a lot and I'm guessing good models are much less common and much more expensive these days. I don't know what the contracts looked like back then, but the days of "Hey, I'll fly you to the Caribbean for a week along with 10 other bi/lesbian girls and all you have to do is a couple of photo shoots" is long gone. Now it's probably 10k a week per model regardless of where. Oh well.
AlsScan is affiliated with Met-Art. AlsAngels is not. I think it is pretty clear that the guy who runs these sites has always separated out the models by body type and put the curvier ones on AlsAngels. I wrote reviews years ago mentioning this. I hope he is doing really well with the Met Art arrangement, but for whatever reason, he is keeping ALSAngels for himself so the resources they provided to make the ALSScan site more functional are not available here. I think it is also clear that he has some specific tastes that apparently a large number of people share that are pretty much unique to these two sites.
But, like you, I am completely turned off by some of the bizarre, more clinical things on this site and would be much happier if the huge 200+ image photo sets were broken out into, perhaps, stripping and spreading, maybe masturbation, and whatever else is going on in them. By breaking out the sets, the site could draw people who are just looking for straight nude or sex stuff without forcing them to look at the more extreme items that are present in every single set. Ultimately, I think that compartmentalizing the sets would draw and keep more subscribers. It would also provide an opportunity to break up what is now one huge release into two. Webmaster, I hope you are reading this!
I used to do something similar. I would write my review on the web page, then copy it to word before submitting it. That's just a pain, though, when there are multiple text windows (i.e. pros, cons, bottom line).
I actually have a technique that works really well most of the time. If you maintain two tabs to Pornusers and then check to make sure you are still logged in on the other tab, you will still be logged in when you click submit regardless of how long it has been. The cookie applies to all tabs so if one works, they all will. For some reason I forgot to open another tab when I was writing this review. Eh, stuff happens. :-)

Pros:
Huge quantity of material.
Many popular models here.
Body types tend toward curvy/larger breasts.
Generally one release a day
Newer videos are good and in HD.
Newer photo sets come in high resolution.
Mostly solo/lesbian site but some newer B/G scenes.
The girls appear to be having genuine fun.
Videos are dated.
Cons:
Site design, presentation and navigation is horrible.
No search functions
Some releases are actually re-posts, remastered or previously unpublished sets of older material dating back as far as 2001.
Teeny-tiny thumbnails for photo shoots.
The narrow range of sets and specific types of odd fetish shots makes things a little monotonous after a while.
Rather than break sets up into fetish types, each set includes the full range of material for each model (strip to speculum or whatever)
The girls wear very little or no make-up, making some that are solid 10s at other sites about a 7 here.
Un-named billing service posts site name on CC.
Bottom Line:
I haven't been a member of Als Angels since about 2005. Amazingly, the format and overall type of content seems EXACTLY the same as it was then. Really. The site design may have changed a little from 2005, but it is just as clunky.
It is very difficult to determine volume because of the antiquated layout.
About 3500+ photo sets/videos
Several hundred models
1 video and 1 photo set a week (some recycled or previously unpublished old material)
Combination of US and Eastern European models
Most videos are of photo shoots
Mostly solo girl, lesbian and fetish sets
Videos are dated but photo sets are not.
No scoring.
No search functions.
Horrible navigation.
ALS Angels is the other site run by the guy who runs ALSScan, now a part of the Met-Art network. ALS Angels is still independent (NOT part of Met-Art network) and it includes many more full-figured and popular models (Like Lucy Li). It also includes some material that used to be on ALSScan, like the old body-paint and nude-in-public sets. The type of material on this site is identical to the type of material on ALSScan, but the models are not limited to the super-young, relatively thin girls on on ALSScan.
ALS Angels is mostly a lesbian and off-beat fetish site, but there are a few newer boy/girl sex scenes. The girls on this site are more large breasted, curvy, perhaps a little older, but all are shaved and many are quite beautiful. A few headliners like Lucy Li are easily recognizable without much make-up.
Just like ALSScan, practically every model gets fisted at some point. There is also an odd fascination with otherwise un-viewable areas of the female anatomy. Examples include almost every model agreeing to use a speculum so you can see what her uterus looks like. Many models agree to use an embroidery hoop with clothes pins spreading the labia to provide a more detailed view (think dental headgear for the pussy). Some models use glass tubes allowing a view deep inside the vagina or rectum. I guess folks are into that. I find it neither sexy, nor flattering. In a word, this stuff makes the models clinical.
The girls don't really wear much make-up. You get to see every pimple, freckle, sore, scar and bruise, whether it is on a face, a leg or a butt.
Each set, regardless of age, starts out with the girl wearing a skimpy outfit or ALS signature tiny bikini and the girl undresses, lubes up and spreads. it can be quite nice up to here. Then they break out the bottles, vegetables, fists, vacuums, inflators, speculums and embroidery hoops. You might like it, at least at first.
The photographers have a very good rapport with the models and this shows in the sets. They are encouraged to please themselves and are often helped by another girl.
Navigation on this site is among the worst I've ever seen for such a large site. There is no search function. Models are listed alphabetically with an index. Photo-sets are displayed 10 sets across with no dates, names, or other info about the set with over 1000 sets on ONE PAGE! Once you open a photo set, you get between 5-10 pages of images, 6 images across, that are also very difficult to see. The sets are large, but many images are very similar.
You get two size options for display and 2 size options for downloads.
For me, the most frustrating thing about this site is the all-inclusive nature of every single set. I'll compare this to In The Crack, for example, that has many of the same types of scenes. Here, you get one scene or 1 video that includes everything from stripping to fisting to, speculum use to peeing in THE SAME LONG VIDEO or photo set. I don't want that. I want to see these beautiful girls naked, maybe oiled up and spreading, but that's about it. ITC separates out the sets so I can download the scenes I want and pass on the ones I don't. ALS should be doing the same thing. Compartmentalizing the fetishes will make the basic sets much more appealing to non-fetish folks and allow the people who like specific fetishes to just pick them. Win Win!
I also don't like that the photo sets aren't dated. You have no idea if the photo set you are opening is from 2001 or 2017. That's OK if you are a first-time visitor, but not OK if you are looking for material that has been published recently. ALL SETS SHOULD BE DATED. This failure troubles me enough to take away about 10 points from the score.
Bottom line: If you like ALSAngels, you will probably like this site. Keep in mind, though that the models are curvier here, which is a good thing, but the navigation is terrible.

Pros:
Part of Passion-HD network.
Young, popular attractive models
Good quality videos
zipped images from video sets
Cons:
Very small site
Many downloads are broken. (now fixed)
Very slow download speeds (compared to other sites in the network).
No support.
Not already included in Passion-HD platinum Pass.
Watermarks on videos and especially images are HUGE and very distracting.
Ever watch a silent movie and see all the exaggerated facial expressions? Lots of that, especially in the images.
Bottom Line:
This site is part of the Passion-HD network, but like a lot of the sites in that network, it is marketed separately and there is no indication from the preview or sign-up screen that it is part of the same network. Once you are a member of any site within the network, Baeb.com is part of the $69 Platinum Pass if you purchase it now, but is not included if you already own the pass, as I do. Pure money grab.
Details:
15 videos as of 4/1/17
Good quality but several were broken (fixed)
Videos are scored 1-10 stars
Videos are dated
Model index
Photo sets and zip with mid-size images
Several of the videos were broken when I first downloaded them, failing about 1/2 to 3/4 of the way through when played. The downloads complete. The vids do not. I think this has been resolved but it is an odd issue.
When I tried to contact support about the download issue, the ticket system did not work. It kept asking me to put a name into the name field even though I already had. Giving up on submitting a ticket, I tried again to download the videos a few days later and they now appear to work.
The format of these videos is exactly the same as Passion-HD with the exception of a little less POV (no top-down or cowboy POV). This is all straight sex as far as I can tell. No anal or fetish. I think the logic behind this site is that it is supposed to be an actress showcase rather than a niche site. Not sure, though.
Bottom line: I can't recommend this site by itself due to the small collection size, broken videos, slow downloads and lack of support. Passion-HD is a much better value. Look for a deal on one of the sites (Including this one, which I saw advertised for $14 someplace) in the network and then consider forking out the $69 to get permanent access to all of the sites (That access is for as long as you maintain the original membership.) The network membership should then include this site.
Porn quality is an equation. (GIRL)*(SETTING*IMAGE QUALITY*PHOTOGRAPHER SKILL, TALENT AND RAPPORT WITH MODEL)*(SEVERAL OTHER VARIABLES) If any one of them is a 0, the whole thing is a 0.
Setting means location and lighting. Both have to be good with no major distractions.
There are a few sites that shoot backlit "white room" scenes in front of a window and from about 15 feet away. They are high quality but almost entirely from one angle, the side. These are probably the biggest waste of time and talent I've ever seen.
Chatty photographers or overly vocal actors are easy fix by turning off the volume.
When joining a new site, it takes about 5 minutes on the site to decide if I'm going to want to keep it for more than a month. So I often cancel literally within minutes of joining a site just to make sure I have done it and to avoid any last minute nonsense that sometimes happens at the less disciplined sites. On occasion, the cancel process is convoluted specifically so the site can charge people who wait until the last minute to cancel. MUCH better to cancel and then change your mind than it is to put off decided and get charged for another month that you don't want.
This is a tough question. I download a lot of images and then sift through them when I have time to remove the chaff. There is a LOT of chaff. I also tend to download videos and then only watch or sometimes actually edit them to keep the segments that I want to keep. I'm not into watching girls give head or get anal, so those photos/videos are deleted or skipped. So I keep between 30-40% of what I download.
