Why Is Porn With GENUINE Reactions Hard to Find?

It seems like every major porn company has productions where the stars overact every scene. They moan from barely being touched. They breath through their teeth every friggin second. It seems like they're being told to redo scenes but "louder." It takes me out of it, and it's annoying. It's such a turn off. I can never tell if they're genuinely having a good time or if they're forcing it. The European companies seem to be the worst offenders in my opinion. EVERY ACTOR purses his lips, breaths through his teeth and moans, regardless of what's happening to them.

I think H&lix and C0ckyb0ys do a good job (not to mention their actors are exactly my type... not quite twinks, but not overly built / perfect)... But even then, sometimes it's hard to tell whether they're acting or are actually enjoying what they're doing. I can never seem to find professional studios that are consistently putting out scenes where the actors are legitimately having a good time.

Who else shares this opinion? Where might I be able to find something with decent production value that also has dudes enjoying the sex?

I hate fake reactions too, I think that's part of the reason I enjoy amateur vids more. You can always tell the blatant UN-natural reactions and scenes

Well, there are two different issues and skillsets here.

Most porn shoots set up an outline of what is going to happen. That lets the director know where to put the camera and what to light so you can see what is going on. It also gives the performer a blueprint. Now to make that look real, you need good actors. (Good luck finding them, although a few do exist.)

At the other end of the spectrum you have the wild and woolly guerrilla documentary shooting of Paul Morris and friends who just want to throw oversexed guys together and then film what happens. That can be hit or miss but Paul's directors and cameramen are aces at anticipating what is going on and getting their shots. And of course his editors make it all look like it happened in real time when they are actually pulling standard reality show editing tricks to take a reaction shot from one section and insert it into another to make it all seem to be happening at once.

But it all still comes down to acting - which is basically putting yourself in the moment and ignoring all the technical claptrap that is going on around you. Part of the difference in styles is that directors like Morris try to actively facilitate that environment (and then let the actor decide what specifically they want to do), while the more traditional approach is to tell the actor what they are going to do and then rely on them to provide the believability when the camera is rolling.

Both can feel real and believable when it all comes together.

I guess it really does come down to the acting, this day and age with internet anyone can be an adult star with or without instruction

I wonder about the extent the actors know one another beforehand and have the time to develop desire and chemistry before the shoot.

We porn fans enjoy watching our fellow dudes surrender completely to the primal feelings of sexual pleasure, free of any inhibitions.

It's both fascinating and enjoyable to observe those involuntary sexual responses programmed into a guy's body : the involuntary thrusts his hips are doing, facial grimaces, gasping, moaning, heavy breathing...
Watching his nut sack tighten-up, full of deep wrinkles, as his toes curl... His orgasm with moaning convulsion, his hands grabbing the couch, thick flying ropes of sperm shooting out of his gaping cum-slit, his body quaking with post-orgasmic shudders, the look on his face to observe the primal feelings taking over his mind...

The whole thing is so awesomely beautiful ! Words can't describe...

The scarcity that you complain about makes hunting for good porn a pleasant an exciting hobby. :)

Here are a few gems from my private collection, with men expressing their intense sexual pleasure in the most natural way with beautiful emotional and/or bodily responses; don't forget to increase the volume to fully enjoy !

I'm also a big fan of audioporn : I enjoy listening to men experiencing sexual pleasure...
Contrary to vids, the whole scene is now left to your imagination... :p



I enjoy listening to such hot fucksounds in the most uncommon places : in traffic jams, in the subway, the sports club, while walking down the street... :p

I think this is a really good question. In my opinion it comes down to the fact that in the professional movies, they are being paid to act. So that is what they do...act!

Like Curiousnomore, it's one of the reasons that I prefer watching amateur vids more than I do the crisp studio videos. It is so much more fun to see genuine reactions instead of scripted ones.

I've sat in on a few porn shoots, both professional and amature, and the it can be wildly different affairs.

First: With the professional movies, you have to remember that these guys are out to make a buck. They have to pay the actors, the crew men, the editors, and all the people in the back like a normal production Hollywood movie. The last one that I was at about six months ago, it took a couple of hours to shoot a movie that after editing came out to be about 25 minutes. Again, like Hollywood, there was a lot of stopping, camera repositioning, get yourself hard again, and go back to sex for a few minutes until the director wants to move the equipment again. I won't lie, these guys can turn a two hour exhaustive sex session into a hot 25 video that will keep your hand on your dick the whole time, but it comes at a cost. These guys are trying to pull off real emotions of sex like a Hollywood actor is trying to pull off fear of just missing a car about to land on top of him. And the car isn't really there.

Amature sex on the other hand, like skntn said, the guys that I've done it with and have done the filming for a few times, knew each other beforehand, so there was already a natural chemistry between them. They knew what each other liked, and how to get them to react to something. For example, one of my buds that we have filmed a few times nearly melts when he gets his ass eaten. So when we really want to get a reaction out of him I know to hold off doing that until he is really worked up, and then when you get your tongue on his ass, he will give the craziest moan, tighten his whole body for a second and then just go loose while your eating him out.

But I'm sure that even the professional have their "honest" moments. Just for the most part they are hard to find when they happen. You just have to get good at reading peoples reactions, and listen to them. Most of the time I do think it is faked for the most part. But that is not going to stop me from watching a couple of hot guys go at it.

Like you said in the original post, Double DNA and The Boys I think do the best job of trying to keep it real. It's probably why I like watching them the best. So it all comes down to two words in my book: Chemistry & Money. If you have chemistry you get the real emotions. When you have to make money from it, you take away some of the emotion to compensate for the $$.

I think the thing with porn these days is that it has become a performance. It always has been but, these days we are more aware of the visual media and how films, TV shows and porn scenes are constructed. You are aware for example when a film or TV show is trying to manipulate your emotions or trying to take you in a particular direction. We are all more media savvy and not the passive, unquestioning audiences we once were. If you watch some of the TV shows or films from the fifties, sixties and seventies and ones from your childhood. You notice that things that once seemed ground breaking and had a profound affect on you are fundamentally flawed and seen from a modern perspective seem amateurish and badly shot and acted. Trouble with porn is like others have said is there is no chemistry between a lot of the actors. Chemistry is nigh on impossible to fake. There is stopping and starting which interferes with the flow. it is constructed and fake and we pick up on it. We are all more attuned to it. Once you know the magic trick the illusion is shattered. We can still get turned on if we find the participants attractive, but we are aware it is not real. Watching guys masturbate is a truer form of porn. Ok, they can ham it up sometimes, but underneath you can get an idea of the emotions their feeling and the responses their bodies go though. When you watch some of the Russians they always seem bored and despondent, yet when they approach orgasm you see micro expressions on their faces and involuntary body movements and even when the try to show indifference to the orgasm, you still get the momentary glazing of the eyes or the upward movement of the eyeballs. When it comes to non solo sex then it has to be amateur. A long term couple filming themselves with a hand held. Although, the trouble with amateur, as with professional, is people can become aware of the camera and either freeze up or like some of the professional over act. It is very hard to get a natural feel or capture someone's true emotion when a camera is involved. Actors often struggle with that and most of the time they have their clothes on.

I can never tell if they're genuinely having a good time or if they're forcing it. The European companies seem to be the worst offenders in my opinion. EVERY ACTOR purses his lips, breaths through his teeth and moans, regardless of what's happening to them.


A couple of Czech studios explained to me why there is such an emphasis on loud moaning in their scenes. The first problem is that many models don't speak English (or only with a horrible accent). Talking can make a scene more convincing. I'm not speaking about elaborate conversation but just adding 'Fuck, yeah" or 'Love your dick' etc. can make a huge difference to a scene. The Czech models could speak Czech but most studios don't like the hassle of translation. One studio also told me that American viewers are not so keen on subtitles (USA is the most important market for gay porn). So to compensate for the lack of talking the models just moan, and moan, and moan.

Another thing is that many gay porn models are reasonable silent while having sex (not so very different from most people!). So after the scene is filmed the moaning is recorded separatly and later added to the scene (sometimes another person is used for the moaning). This can be easily noticed as the moaning is out of synch with the models lips. But it is very difficult to moan in a natural way i.e. not too soft or too loud. Most of the time studios opt for the loud moaning as they think this will make a scene more convincing. For me this over the top moaning is just irritating and unnatural.


What also plays a role in the lack of genuine reactions in Czech gay porn is that the overwhelming majority of models is straight / gay for pay. Some studios do a reasonably good job in hiding this (B€l@mi) but most of the times it shows. Gay sex doesn't come naturally to a straight guy. You can teach a straight model a thing or two about gay sex but, as already mentioned above, some things cannot be teached and come from a natural desire.

Got to admit like the Czech porn. The guys are super fit. Don't mind they can't act and like the fact some are supposedly gay for pay.

I like really loud, exaggerated moaning lol. It's a fetish.

There is a C-z-€-c-h H-u-n-t-€-r scene (no. 206) where the bottom is almost shouting through the entire fucking portion of the scene and it wasn't fake! However, to be clear, I mostly don't like to see a guy moaning from pain, but rather I like the idea that the moaning is all from pleasure.

Many of the Czech studios really get the formula right in terms of the guys making genuine little moans. From $-t-a-x-u-$, check out the last two scenes featuring A-d-r-1-a-n B-€-n-n-€-t. It's only a few seconds here and there but these are examples of a guy who is genuinely moaning from pure pleasure, or at other times from the mixture of pain and pleasure.

Also, who doesn't like dirty talk? I think if Czech or Eastern-European guy talk dirty in broken English it makes it all the more exotic and kinky. Practically every S-€-V-P scene features this kind of dirty talk. All the guys use identical phrases which would have been easy for them to learn, such as a simple 'fuck me' or 'suck me'.

I agree that B-€-L-A-M-1 have the 'passion' down to a fine art. Not sure if it's all real, but very convincing. I agree here that 95% of their models are Str8. As B1ll H1gg1ns (director based in Prague) once said "if a guy is horny enough he will fuck dirt." Also recall an interview with the owner of B-€-L-A-M-1 where he states categorically that the vast majority of the guys are indeed str8. It's not so hard to imagine if you think about it. Imagine you as a gay man, 18 or 20yo, being paid to fuck gorgeous teenage women. Impossible? Of course not! Especially at that age when you are peaked ALL the time. And bending over so they can take turns fingering your ass or fucking you with say a dildo. What's so utterly 'unimaginable' about that? Well it's the same for young and horny str8 guys interested in doing porn for $$$.

In the end it all comes down to acting skills.
Good actors don't overact, bad actors tend to do so.
Good actors don't do porn for many reasons, hence the overacting.
Don't think they cast them according to their acting skills... probably more on the size of their schlong or their overall physical fitness.
Plus I don't think porn movies, with their tiny budgets, attract all the best directors either... so it's a bunch of lousy actors with big dicks and sixpacks directed by wannabe directors that can't find work outside the small porn niche.
I also think the "quality porn" project simply imploded because of all the free porn you get on the internet.

As Liza Minnelli used to say... Money makes the world go round.

Real amateur material could theoretically produce something more spontaneous if.. but only if the guys and gals involved weren't so busy imitating mainstream porn overactors.
