@CPanzram: again, the film was not ABOUT the porn industry- it was nothing more than an attention-getting setup for a standard rom-com, and i also don’t think the public is quite as stupid as you assume they are. They don’t assume everything they see in a mainstream film is reality.

@Lacey
Boogie Nights was great. It was more about a time in porn. People wouldn’t try to emulate what they saw after seeing that film. It was based on a true story and not a pretty feelgood one.

PT Anderson did a really good job at recreating filmed interviews with John Holmes in it. I loved Boogie Nights.

@sachertorte
Anyone in the industry who would watch that would see all the laws being broken. It gives people the thought they can just go and shoot a porno and sell it.

@Lacey: that’s bc it wasn’t- it just used making an amateur porn as a half-assed setup for a fairly conventional rom-com.

Oh god, it never ONCE occurred to me that the movie was even about the porn industry?

@Lacey: “Zack and Miri Make a Porno” with Seth Rogen & Elizabeth Banks, about roommates who decide to make a cheapo amateur porn bc they’re broke. Of course, by the end of the film they realize they’re in love, and end up married, owning a business where they film bored couples having sex to “bring back the spark” to their relationships. Fairly lame movie with a handful of good jokes.

Oh, I wasn’t talking about just porn, but more about all movies. They still bootleg them from the theaters around here although I don’t know who would buy that shit?
