Oh cluck, cluck, cluck. This is one of the reasons I stopped reading the forum. I have no idea why I looked tonight, other than I thought I'd check what was happening after a nearly two day absence because of a power failure early Friday morning. When folks here don't like someone, they never fail to pile on. I'm not saying that this was a great scene because it wasn't, but I thought it was better than what I got from reading the reviews here. It's certainly not constructive criticism, that's for sure. If there's one thing I have to question it's what is going on with all of the camera work? I would have loved to have seen both of their cocks together, but the one chance there was, the camera was busy moving around and ended up at a lousy angle. Please stop using that camera technique. I find it annoying, and I think it takes away from the actors in the scene. They are the ones who should be moving around.
I'll agree that Brad is not right for Broke Straight Boys, but he deserves better than to be roasted the way he was here. For whatever reason he wore a condom, and I would never deduct for that, If that's what it takes for everyone to feel comfortable, then so be it. This may have been done before his test results were back. They did the same thing with Tanner and Ronan Kennedy, and I don't remember anyone roasting them for it.
I think Tanner is wonderful and I always look forward to his scenes, but there have also been scenes where I thought maybe he didn't do as well as he could. Let's just move on. Hopefully there will be better chemistry with the new models. And here is where I will end my rant.
My criticism was not that Brad wore a condom, but that the camera tried, whether purposely or because of bad camera work, to hide the fact. To me it looked as if it was purposeful. As to deducting a point for a condom scene, I have been doing that ever since bb scenes return. I deduct from the scene rating because I don't know why the individual is wearing one and it is my little personal protest to show that I prefer bb scenes over condom scenes; so I don't affect the individual model's rating, just the overall scene's rating.
