| Pros: |
- Met-Art does a fine job of keeping the legendary Viv Thomas' site running strong.
- Watching the videos and looking at the photos almost makes you believe the photographers either studied Viv's style of shooting or were his apprentices.
- Lots of lesbian action, a long-time strong point of Viv Thomas.
- Daily updates, video one day, photo set the next day, video the next and so on.
- Very high technical quality (will go into in BL).
- Quite a bit of Viv's older content is still here, but there's a slight con below about this.
- Easy to navigate. A search box. An advanced search option. Update tab, models tab, photos tab, videos tab. Everything works great.
- Passionate sex, another Viv staple and it's still here. Lots of kissing between the women.
- Photos are downloadable in zips with the high quality option nearing 6000 on the high end.
- Top-tier Euro models ... if those still exist and once again, just like Viv always booked. |
| Cons: |
- There's not a lot to complain about it here. I think Met-Art has improved this site, though I scored it a 92 many years back and a 92 today, but there's improvement. I just think the whole field of porn sites have improved quite a bit.
- Could be a little better if the videos had BTS on the thumbnail so I don't click them thinking it's an action video. |
| Bottom Line: |
Viv Thomas had two sites. One was this one I'm reviewing, the other was just Viv Thomas Video. Viv Thomas Video site is one of my all-time favorite sites for lesbian content. This one I'm reviewing used to be mostly photos with the occasional interview/BTS video, but it now has Viv Thomas Video level videos.
Viv Thomas was one of the innovators of modern Euro porn. He specialized in the passionate lesbian sex world known as "leg sex". Anytime you saw pictures of Viv at an adult function, there would be 3-5 top models standing around him, hugging him, etc...
It's not unusual for one of his lesbian scenes to be 25-30 minutes in length, with 20 minutes of the scene being the models being fully dressed, kissing, hands up each other shirts, down each others pants, tongues in each others mouth. And somehow, Met-Art in buying the site, have been able to closely replicate Viv's style.
The first big technical change: Viv's sites never were at the top of field in terms of technical quality. Seems like his photos always topped out at 2000 high end and videos were 360p back when he was running the sites. The photos are now coming in at near 6000 long end and the videos are loaded with options. The biggest surprise for me, though it's not something I download is the amount of videos with the 4K option. They date back to May 2015, so that's 9-10 months of videos with the 4K option. The last 4-5 years of videos also have the 1080p option.
Then there's the ones I usually avoid at all costs. The interview videos, but you have to see Viv's if you haven't. They're unlike any interview video of models you've seen. Viv never seems awestruck by the models or silly or demanding of ignorant information. He just talks to them like they are his friends. I always thought those were a nice touch.
There's also quite a bit of content on this site. As of 2/9/2016, there's 2,663 photo sets and over 1,300 videos. Thanks to the new ownership, Met-Art has started filming these scenes similar to how Sex Art does. There's a similar basis in 4-5 scenes and they are grouped together so you can watch them in succession if you wanted to do that.
You'll have a hard time finding a single unattractive model here and there's at least some curvier models than most Euro sites are doing these days. I know that by giving it a 92, I'm grouping it in the "best of class" and I believe it is and it's a class it's not even usually categorized in ... lesbian. I prefer it over all the other lesbian sites. Met-Art's network has quite a few of these sites they've bought from the original producers and I think this is the one they've done the best job with. Highly recommended. |
