Freshmen.net: Oscar Scholz and Viggo Sorensen Flip-Fuck in ‘Issue #337’

Colton, The Major Hussy says:

I completely agree. I think Adam Archuleta and Jack Harrer are probably the last BelAmi superstar models and it’s a shame because they have a lot of great and good looking performers. Whatever the reason, it is undeniable that BelAmi is one of the, if not THE, most consistent studio in the past 20 something years.

Curlee says:

They have no shortage in picture perfect guys though. It’s like they grow on trees over there in Czech land.

moondoggy says:

I meant to say that the reason I’m musing about Lukas and others is because once in a while, I see someone who I think is ridiculously good looking that people only barely talk about, and Viggo is one of those. I don’t know how thorough the tagging system is here, but the last tagged update from him was a year ago. The ones before that are closer together, but none of them have double digit comments. The typical Viggo update gets three comments on this board.

moondoggy says:

It’s interesting to me how such a big studio like BelAmi only gets a few comments in every thread here. Could it be that maybe the mayority of the demographic in WB is more interested in other studios? Sean Cody and Corbin Fisher are still the studios that get the most comments but neither are remotely close to the 50+ comments they used to get in the past.

I have given this a lot of thought, and I have never reached any satisfying conclusions. I don’t understand the generations of porn consumers below me, and to some extent I don’t even understand my peers. The same thing happened in porn that happened in music, which is that my taste developed almost as if I were 20 years older than I am. To me, the true golden age of porn was 1983-86. Leo and Lance, Sailor in the Wild, The Bigger the Better, the late film era and to a lesser extent the early VHS era. And as a result, something I value tremendously is the “premise.” Pizza guy David Ashfield grooming Grant Fagan until Grant is legs up on a park bench taking one of the biggest cocks he’ll ever see. Or teacher Peter North keeping Rick Donovan after school to teach him a lesson, only to surrender to Rick’s overwhelming greater dominance. It’s the paradox of the attainable fantasy: an ordinary situation where unexpectedly the opportunity for mind blowing sex suddenly surfaces. That is the bedrock of porn for me, but that has nothing to do with how porn is packaged and marketed today. (The only exception is the stepdad fantasy, which the industry has run into the ground.)

I think that the defining fact of my adolescence was that naked men were inaccessible, and for young guys now, the opposite is true. There’s no magic to it, and a porn scene is not a perfectly crafted moment anymore. It’s just content to be watched once or twice and replaced with something new, every single day. Bel Ami is still crafting those perfect moments but too many guys are just as willing to watch someone fuck in a grainy twitter clip or something. So all of that is to say that the Bel Ami business model, though durable, is also a little dated, I suspect.

As to why Corbin Fisher still gets more comments, I do think there is an American bias. I said that years ago and someone corrected me on the question of whether the model I was talking about spoke English. I still think that matters even though no one is really talking in CF updates. If Dane called me right now, I would not recognize his voice on the phone. (That certainly is different from classic Sean Cody. Who doesn’t know what Daniel sounds like?) I’ve sat here almost an hour writing out all these theories and I’m not fully convinced by any of them, so I’m going to shut up now.
