You can easily get bad lighting outside on a sunny day because natural lighting is a single, super strong source--the sun, which no artificial light can truly replicate, and certainly not on a shoestring porn budget. The problem is that this can create really harsh shadows depending on the season and time of day. So performers are squinting, unevenly lit, and the setting becomes less than picturesque.
Shooting inside near a window as you mentioned brings up other problems. The light sources are different color temperatures and the picture will be white balanced for the indoor source (or on auto balance, which will adjust to the inside), probably a warmer tungsten or incandescent light. The light coming from the window will look blue and kind of weird, but not exactly out of place for a porn video.

Since "on drugs" could mean any number of things I'm going to say "Only if it impairs production." If someone has an audience and can still work producers will tolerate a lot--just like in mainstream Hollywood, and to a certain extent in politics as well.
Read a few interviews or tweets of current performers and it's clear that pot is the go-to drug of choice at the moment. While it certainly doesn't help them come off as women who are more than airheaded eye candy they're aren't flying planes or engineering vaccines either, so no harm no foul.

You make a good point Belthazar; sites need to work harder (better editing, more appropriate compression, etc.) to justify such huge but relatively short files. A good scene will always be worth the disk space, but if I'm on the fence I quickly delete or keep a smaller version (like 1280x720). I have no trouble keeping older 640x480 scenes since they are so much smaller and were shot before simply increasing resolution was thought of as a standalone improvement.

Usually click a link, since I can be a fairly bad speller when I'm in a rush or simply not paying attention. But more typically I'm trying to avoid a very similar URL that's for a very dissimilar website, i.e. typosquatting.

I do like 'em young (who doesn't?), but then again the very appealing [ignore]Nina Hartley [/ignore]is in her 50s, married, and doing quite well while still enjoying it. Helps tremendously to have a good head on your shoulders though, something even a plastic surgeon can't install.

I think "a turkey baster full of fake cum" describes more than a few sites--hell, a whole genre at this point.

No, and not exactly sure how a guy would do such a thing--I can't edit myself like I'm in a porn video!

Somewhat important, but man can they be abused!
Less-is-more can work for the number of cameras if the operator/director is creative enough and at least a minimum of editing is done. Instead we get 30-45 minute single takes that are POV, wide-angle, and feel like endurance tests for the viewer.
Other times there are multiple angles from multiple cameras, but they are shown onscreen at the same time or the same action is simply repeated for the second angle after it's already been shown for the first. And then there are slo-mos, which feel like the porn equivalent of using double spacing on a paper to increase page count without any additional content. >:- |

Goodwill and the nearest Dumpster are definitely out--and some people treat them as if they are the same--because I still have most of mine.
Though, as addressed in the poll last week, I do fear what will happen to it when I die. Unlike hard drives and mysterious credit card charges the DVDs and magazines will start upsetting family and some friends as soon as they see the light of day. Yeah, I'll be dead but I don't exactly want to leave my loved ones with what I know will be an embarrassing task.
It's like you get to haunt people through the levels of shame that your porn collection will provide! :-)

Some of this stuff can be hard to judge until you've actually downloaded it and taken a more thorough look. But I say "Other" because genre/category, or at least what the BS description will say about it may turn me away.
Generally "too skinny" or "too chunky" will be categories on their own and are part of the reason people seek them out, though too chunky can just be the model and not BBW stuff. Too skinny is just horrifying in my opinion--nothing sexy about someone who appears to be literally starving to death. You can't fake that and it's probably the riskiest "look" I can think of in porn today. (Seriously, STDs could would most likely longer to kill someone than malnutrition.)

Don't like it personally, as I don't find most "dirty talk" particularly sexy or erotic, especially in the form of name-calling, but it all depends on the context. Kink.com throwing out insults is one thing, but it is not the same as some overly aggressive director who hasn't yet realized he's the asshole when he verbally abuses a performer.

No, but if only because they do it slightly less than men.
Sometimes I meet a pretty girl, or just a seemingly sweet and innocent one, and I'd like to believe she does the deed as much as me but I always have my doubts. And for men it's almost a certain side effect of the physiology of their anatomy--I've never heard of any women waking up with morning wood (her own, at least). ;-)

I agree here; if she's not the mood, good luck. I was watching a Louis CK special recently where he was talking about how men are always in the mood for sex and are frequently bad at it when they do have it because they only think about themselves. Of course he adds in his own personal physical deficiencies but he made a decent point.
And I say if you have to do any of these above choices to have sex instead of, you know, to just be a nice and caring partner then you might not be getting much action anyway (particularly if you have to bed and plead, but that's always worth a shot too :-) ).

Too much anal? I guess that would be like too much sugar or too much fat; everybody likes it but in excess it's not good for you.
That being said, I do think there might be too much plain Jane anal sex (if such a thing exists) instead of vaginal, but just the right amount of the other anal-related acts: the fisting, gaping, winking, and milk-shooting we've all come to expect at this point. For those more crazy ones I think it takes a dedicated and open-minded (open-assed?) performer. Not just some girl who's doing it for the money but someone who's gone through all the unsexy and unfun prep work to perform a great-but-not-gross scene and still get some self-satisfaction at the end.
Watch/experience some scenes from anal heroines like [ignore]HotKinkyJo, Roxy Raye, or Proxy Paige[/ignore] though and they'll may make you think that the rest of porn doesn't have enough anal action. ;-)

He said prolapses were exotic, though you might think some performers were trying to prove otherwise, not erotic.
However some of us do find them erotic--just don't ask us to explain why! I certainly can't explain why certain things turn me on, mixed up brain chemistry perhaps? :-0

I imagine that trying to explain phenomena like rosebuds or vacuum pumping to future generations will be something akin to trying to rationalize embarrassments from our past like patent medicines or the insane nuclear buildup during the Cold War. There were few genuinely positive things to say about them but they seemed like the right idea at the time.

BTW, I originally wanted to respond to your comment--"hooks his finger into her vagina and gouges, twists, pokes, digs, and scoops away like he's expecting to find gold"--with Goldfinger, but I held back...at least for a day. :-)

LOL!
That gives new meaning to the term "gold digger!"
Of course it may not actually be gold we're looking for, but it feels just as precious!

I would have said "Other," but worrying what I could come up with to fill that answer I'll stick with "Even higher."
My opinion is, at least generally, that I like my porn to still have some erotic content until I stop and ask "Is this even porn?!" So for example, a Max Hardcore video includes some really rough sex and his content is ostensibly sexual but a lot of it just comes off as weird, rubbernecking content that doesn't really disgust me nor does it turn me on.
I don't enjoy it the same way I enjoy an equally, at least in stark physical terms, hardcore anal video involving, say, two girls happily fisting each others asses. Yeah, it's just as dirty/hardcore/perverted as a typical Max assault-athon but it's presented as way more consensual, so as "hard" as it is I still find it enjoyable.
Having said that...no matter how happy those two girls may be I definitely don't want to see either one of them poop afterwards--that'd be too far! :-0

I go with Other too because of the reasons already mentioned; it depends on the model, and matching does matter. For example, bright pink can look pretty garish, but it can really pop on a girl with darker or tanned skin--a head turner with just a little fabric.
And frankly if the performer is working it and making a hot scene, well, the color of her lingerie just isn't that important anymore. And as much as I like to think "good girls always wear white panties" the kind of things they do in them in porn throws that idea out the window with a vengeance.
Of course in real life any color is the right color! If you get to see lingerie I see no reason to dislike the color--outside of "added" color, if you are so unlucky. :-0

Once in a while, but more for genre than quality or customer service reasons. I've joined a few sites to find that only a handful of their scenes were what I was really into, the rest not so much. I guess like meeting a girl whilst she's flashing her tits during Spring Break only to find out she actually doesn't do it that much.
However, I say you really haven't paid for porn until you've regretting paying for it. Lust & learn. :-)

Somewhat, but at this point I've come to terms with the fact that, surprise!, porn isn't being organized by librarians and archivists (except for badandy400)...though I have seen some librarians who I really wish were in porn!
Hell, if a site even has a search function I'm surprised, though I won't be expecting much out of it. If a scene isn't tagged or the site just doesn't organize things the way you might then you're out of luck. But when sites like InTheCrack, who have a category called "Large Pussy Lips," I can still have some hope for humanity after all. :-)
