This is my first time doing the honors of opening the thread after a scene. I'm surprised that twelve hours later or so there hasn't yet been this thread, particularly because we already have two about a scene that hasn't even come out yet!
Perhaps it's because many people don't have that much to say about it? I'm afraid that's the case for me. I'm an Ian fan, so I liked that he was in this scene. I liked watching him top, since other than his last scene with Damien we haven't seen much of that. Johnny's never really been my favorite model, but I understand a lot of other people like him; hopefully they enjoyed seeing him get fucked.
Perhaps people haven't said anything because Clay directed this scene and so there's no Johnny rage? Well, I like Johnny and I surely missed him here. After his more interactive style, the things that I didn't like about Clay's scenes stood out even more. It was the same formula and, even though I enjoy watching attractive men have sex, watching them do it in this way has gotten a bit stale. The first model gets a blow job, the second model gets a blow job, one model fucks the other one, they both jerk off at the end.
I guess since I have so little else to say about this scene and some time that I'm killing here in the lobby at the courtroom before my motion comes up, I'll try my best to think big thoughts a little bit here.
For me, and I suspect a lot of people, Broke Straight Boys is different from other porn sites - and the truly incredible amount of free porn available on the internet, which I think is the real competition here - in that it's selling the models' personalities, for lack of a better word. We get to know them as people through the behind the scenes stuff and them posting on the board. We know that Ian's funny and kind of a smart ass and Johnny's kind of a bro who likes Bruce Springsteen, et cetera.
Often this stuff comes through in the scenes. A good example was the back and forth between Damien and Cage Kafig last time, which I really enjoyed. For me, Broke Straight Boys is at its most successful when all that stuff comes through, because it really does make porn that's different from the other stuff that's out there. I think Broke Straight Boys kind of knows this, too, because they invest in it.
So to the extent that a scene reflects the models' personalities, I think that's a scene that I'm really going to like. But when you get "the first model gets a blow job, the second model gets a blow job, one model fucks the other one, they both jerk off at the end," that makes the models basically interchangeable - the only thing to really get excited about is if you happen to prefer one really attractive guy to a different really attractive guy, and I think that wears thin. That then translates into a scene that's basically interchangeable with the rest of the porn on the internet, including the free stuff.
I don't really know if I've even made a point there, other than "formula bad, models' personalities good." Maybe others have thoughts about this?
