Yeah, I'll agree that porn actually tried to do acting and storytelling back in the 70's. I miss it, kinda, but I think the pacing of having to watch 100 minutes of film for 5-6 7-minute sex scenes probably wouldn't fly today. In fact, I really agree with your whole comment.

My point (if I had one, it was more of a quip) was that singling out the 70's for particularly bad porn acting isn't necessary.

I do find it humorous there was such a reaction to my comment, but I like when posts lead to interaction and not just silent up-/down-votes.

Also, I think Pirates! is considered to be the most expensive porn with a budget of $1 million. As MnemonicBump said, that's probably due to changing definitions.

I'd love to see a limited return of high-brow porn, though.
