Watching Porn in a Movie Theater Full of Strangers....

People used to do this?

Considering back then, that was the only way to watch it. And then when the first VCRs came out back in the late 1970s, the VCRs were going for $1,000 each, and pre-recorded porn cassettes were priced at $300 each. Those are 1977 dollars. In 2010 dollars, the equivalent price is triple. So $3,000 for a VCR, and $900 for a porn tape.

See why people say them in theaters?

...for ANY movie. Aside from the big screen and surround sound
and incredible popcorn (not to mention Raisinettes -- who the
hell buys Raisinettes at HOME???), some people benefit from the
group setting.

Group gasping at "Jaws" enhances the experience.

Or, you know... um... so I've heard.

AFN had its studio on the top floor. Instead of listening to the "15:05 to Nashville" being taped, I saw my first porn flick right then and there. I think I glowed in the dark.

I thought it was a historical drama.

And of course those theatres that showed porn got a bad reputation.

People wanted to call him, "Wee Wee Herman" after that...

He really was set up, I believe. Pissed a lot of people off, so he suffered quite a lot for what amounts to very little evidence that he was wacking it.

in a theater (the only dirty movie theater in town) while under the influence, so to speak, and it was pretty hilarious. Aside from nine stoned college kids, the audience consisted of men scattered at considerable distance from each other through the theater, sitting alone with their coats on their laps. And it was very quiet, except for our giggling. I think the regular patrons found us annoying and distracting. And it was really awful porn.

Polly In A Porny

Haha I kissed Polly goodnight haha as we stood at her front door

Now she's quite a proper lady so I didn't ask for anything more

But haha I was feeling oh so groovie that I went down to the movie

And I sat down and guess just what I saw



I saw Polly in a porny down at the dirty flicks

I saw Polly in a porny I didn't know she knew them tricks

What I seen nearly struck me blind I never knew she was the artically inclined

I saw Polly in a porny with a pony and I've nearly blowed my mind

Was she gallopin' (no no no) oh was she trottin' (no no no)

Oh was she riding across the country with some tall dark handsome person

Oh was she wearin' her cowboy hat haha well not exactly that

But at least I recall she had her spurs on

I love ol' Polly in a porny I keep on going back

Yeah in the very last row I'm singin' low with my coat bouncin' in my lap ooh

I spend each dime I can afford I swear she's gonna win an academy award

I saw Polly in a porny with a pony and the pony seemed a little bored

Ooh oh ride Polly ride slide Polly slide

ah the late 70s!

seems like life sorta peaked then... sigh:hi:

they used to show them where I went to school also.

Don't remember others, I think it kind of lost it's appeal rather quickly.

They had pics like Behind The Green Door and Flesh Gordon.

Now there's no imagination at all.

and THEN tell me there's no imagination in porn today. Sure, the commercial stuff may be a tad repetitive, but there's still plenty of avant garde stuff to be found.

Audience participation was what made it fun.

It was small college town and the theater was filled with wise-cracking students. It was actually a lot of fun.

But... alone? Can't say I ever did.

with my girlfriend, her sister, and her sister's husband.

I was 18 and it was totally creepy. The whole theater was pretty much populated with guys sitting by themselves. They were all something like 10-12 seats apart.

I got started on gay porn in nightclubs full of strangers and booze and weed and acid and coke and clove cigarettes dipped in black tar and music that goes THUD-THUD-THUD-THUD.

I would think gay porn would be more of a turnoff for most women. Then again, I'm one of the few straight men who isn't into the whole "lesbian" thing.

Many of the guys there assumed the same, and that I was a man, despite the tits. (Or maybe because of them - they were so huge most people assumed they were fake.)

The thing about gay porn is that the actors are actually good looking, and you don't see Ron Jeremy's fat ugly hairy ass in every other goddamn film. (I hear he's a nice guy, but still.)

I'm not into porn, but I get your point. There's only one reason Ron's in those movies, and strangely, his appeal may be more to het men than to any other demo.

Especially in porn.

I gotta give him this, unlike the schlubs who make it with hot chicks in romcoms, he's got a certain something going for him.

And those romcoms are supposed to be aimed at het women? :puke: :wtf:

with a water pistol full of Jergens Lotion.

Then the socialists fucked it all up by inventing the internet and now all we do is sit at alone at home, wanking and crying.

with grandma and grandpa.

:scared:

:scared:

(Legally, that is.)

So yeah, it could happen. :scared:

2 of my friends and I went to see, "Pizza Girls" high and laughed our asses off.
