QC Open Forum: Do Porn Parodies Really Turn You On?

QC Open Forum

In a few days the world will see the premier of yet another porn parody. Gay of Thrones Season 2 will feature big names in gay porn and Men.com is working extra hard to ensure that season 2 will be as successful as the first one. But let’s be real, the whole sub-genre of parodies is not taken very seriously by anyone so they have an uphill battle in front of them. For some, humour, intentional or not, can take you away from the horny mood you were previously in. Don’t get us wrong, we believe that humour in the bedroom can be a part of a sexual encounter but it not always translate too well on filmed situations where the principal objective is to showcase steamy hot hardcore sex.

For porn studios making a parody is a no-brainer, you pick whatever is trendy in current pop culture, add a few costumes and off you go. The attention from the media, specialized or mainstream, will be instant so you practically won’t need a budget to advertize the effort. The gimmick, despite the production values, sometimes work and others it becomes the lowest point of porn stars who are in the waning stage of their careers. But what’s the real reaction of the audiences? Does the parody really turn you on and it becomes another segment of your fantasy or you just skip the first part of the movie without even paying attention to the story and fast forward straight to the sex? We look forward to hear your opinions so don’t forget to share them in the comments!
