It’s one thing for Hollywood to barrage movie theater-going audiences with a slate of 3-D films, and ESPN to launch a channel devoted to 3-D sports coverage, and the Grammys to present a Michael Jackson tribute in 3-D. But one thing we’re not sure we can deal with is the coming onslaught gay porn starring no real performers — just computer creations. Adult Source Media’s CGI film Pirate’s Booty — a Disney parody, because all porn flicks must have roots in mainstream culture — took 10 months and hundreds of thousands of dollars to produce, with the hands of veteran CGI experts, sixty minutes worth of pixel screwing.
“As someone who shoots live-action porn, I know how much of a struggle it is to get good penetration shots without shoving a light up someone’s ass or otherwise ruining the mood,” writes Todd Klinck. “In Pirate’s Booty, the angles are flawless. Every ass fuck is perfectly captured. While the bottom is getting pounded, his cock jiggles up and down hyper-realistically. There’s comedy in this movie, but it’s no art film. [Director Wendy] Crawford wastes no time on silly plot structures and gets right to the action. The star of the movie is Captain Jack Swallows, who loves sodomizing his little blond, straight cabin boy.”
ASM also produced a Roman era title, Tales From the Gods, with computer-generated performers getting in on the gladiator arena, and emperors being serviced by peasants.
The upside to this CGI trend? No budget necessary for condoms and lube.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
But it’s hard to believe the business sense in spending more money to produce a single gay porn flick that’s easily, ahem, pirated on BitTorrent. Especially in an industry that’s already hurting bad.
The only surefire way to turn CGI porn into a success? Have a a few celebs take up Klinck’s proposition, and let porn studies license their names. With a few clicks of the mouse, editors can swap in famous famous and presto, you’ve got David Beckham getting pounded by Ryan Gosling. We’d buy that. Or at least pirate it.

CGI porn is niche. Most gay men like porn that looks amatuer; porn that looks like it can happen in real life.

FAIL!!!!hahahaa!

With all the Hentai out there, I would not be surprised. I dont get it though.

Why bother with CGI for anything that can feasibly be done live-action? I could see a market for this in making porn aimed at those whose fantasies are impossible or dangerous, though, if it ever becomes cheap enough to work with such a small and divided market.

I didn’t get the memo that the world was running out of live porn people…………….

“Why bother with CGI for anything that can feasibly be done live-action?”
Right now, maybe no one should bother. But think long term. Eventually, with CGI
1. The consumer will be able to customize his porn to his own tastes.
2. The consumer will be able to alter the scene, thus giving a single porno extended replay value.
3. The consumer can indulge niche fantasies that would not support a live action production.
4. Eventually, costs will come down to the point where it will be cheaper to launch a CGI porno than a live action. At the same time items 1-3 above support a high price point.
Finally, and most importantly, this is the first step toward the inevitable destination, which is virtual reality porn, where the consumer is an active participant and has all 5 senses stimulated. That may take decades, but we should all see it in our lifetimes.

All CGI porn is KIDDIE PORN unless the avatars depicted were created 18+ years ago! Otherwise, it’s just sex between digital children! Waaaaaahhhhhgggggg!

One could argue that Star Trek, CGI Porn… or Law & Order CGI… or… oh, never mind.

At least they won’t spread AIDS like the porn industry!
Fitz
As long as I can watch real guys taking real loads, I ain’t into the cartoons. Or the ones who fuck plastic bags.. you can keep those, too.

@dontblamemeivotedforhillary: Wow…really…with the AIDS talk? Really…? Wait, that was a shitty comment. What PROOF do you have that the porn industry is spreading AIDS or HIV?
j
Votedforhilary may not have proof to back up their aids talk, but I think I have “proof” that that was meant as a bad joke and that you take things too seriously.

The pirate DVD is a long, boring cartoon, created mostly by women, not gay men, and it clearly shows.

@AlwaysGay: THIS. CGI porn is SO uncanny valley. I can hardly stand it.
I want 3D live porn instead, and frankly, I wouldn’t even pay for that.
Klarth
@Emil:
Fair enough. You have good points. I don’t think the tech is there, yet though. Right now, it’s like watching Final Fantasy- The Spirits Within, but with sex. And you probably aren’t aware of how badly that tanked a few years ago.
Unless you are. XD
Anyway, VR porn will be cool, but that will hopefully be better done. This stuff now can be done in Second Life. I’ve tried sex in SL, and it was just stupid. IMO.
