Thread: The New Golden age of Porn By Ash Durn & BowenMarsh

Sometimes slight changes to what the world is, will cause massive changes that ripple through time. This is a what if? The story will be our interpretation of a world where a couple things happened differently. First and Foremost is the reflection of Jimmy Carter as president, and the fall of the christian right of the republican party. We may or may not get into the details of this fall. It also Has no STDS in this world, We do realise that this factor would cause much deeper and more significant problems in the world. The main one being Syphilis , which is highly curable, for all intensive purposes consider syphilis eradicated alongside Polio . The Third Major change is that home video never became a thing. The Year is 2014 , and Porn Town USA, a twenty square mile parcel of land outside of Tacoma Washington is entering a new golden age. It is a series of porn studios that banded together and created a Studio town, where all the big, and small companies could co exist, as well as control enough of the local laws to ensure the success of there business. Not every porn studio in the united states is based out of Porn Town, just like not every single TV and Movie studio is based out of Hollywood, but its where the big boys, and those that aspire to be big boys go to play. Its a town of Agents, and of Starlets, both made it, asspiring, and never will. Businesses that are found in everytown USA but with a Porntown friendly twist to everything. Of course the town is more or less controlled by the big four, and 99-100 times there interests as far as the town go are aligned. Though of course they all have bitter and deep rivalries. They almost all do mostly medium budget pornogrophy, with a couple of exceptions. A big Budget production released in december just in time for the Academy of Erotic Arts to judge the high brow material for awards season, The Scroties, the Oscar of porn. There is also an annual galla the first Saturday after halloween for the Golden Jugs , to judge porn on a more popular basis, equivalent to the Golden Globes. Mostly the GJ is awarded to the Big Summer Blockbusters. Each studio plans these, but dont release a ton of them. Each studio usually only releases a single film per month, as well as a variety of short series that will be played between shows. Of course Cable TV has a couple of pay porn channels that show old movies, and a few TV shows produced by the studios, but it isnt as big as theater work. With the rise in production values, and the advancement of technology, many movie theater chains started to rise up in the late seventies and early eighties, opening new theaters , with 3 6 10 screens, Nowadays there are theaters with 24 screens in most towns. The old theaters needed something to show. Many switched to Porn, and the populus started to eat it up, Couples started going to date night at the porn theater. Snacks were changed, as were the laws, it was gaining in popularity, and the ACLU was powerful, the Age of consent nation wide was changed to 16, and it was determined that 15 should be old enough for porn. Soon some chains of porn theaters started to pop up, but never grew to mega size, more, one person would be running a successful theater, and start buying closed theaters of those that did not make the switch. Home Video was squashed by the broadcast companies, and so for the most part people did not go out for there erotic fix. Porn Town USA is split more or less into six sections of town, with few people living there. Four huge lots for the Major companies. Hustler Inc being the Big Name, Play boy being a second, still only dealing in high brow, softcore videos, in the 90s actually pulled all prints of a movie because it was noticed that a playmates pussy was visible in the corner of the screen, shown in a mirror. Vivid who do a wide selection of safe videos, and Bronson, the wild card of the group. They never released anything that was awful under there own name, they had other brand names for when awful happened, but did play things close to the edge. They were experimental, and had the highest amount of hits, but also by far the majority of the failures. There was also the Production companies Quarter, Independent contractors who worked for all, or most of the companies, providing services that they didnt often need, and outsourced, or had a person of such skill such as special effects That he could be justified in being independent. Than there was the business side of the town, Agents, Plastic Surgeons, Boutiques, the hall of fame, restaurants and clubs where schmoozing, and cross company spying and head hunting would happen. Where people worked in hopes of being discovered, and those that had made it shopped to be seen. It was located in Washington, do to Hollywood trying to squash the porn industry in California, knowing that they had been pouching customers to there theaters, and instead of competing with that much old money, a few of the studios got together and decided to pick up stakes and move , finding Washington State to be open to a new industry to bolster there economy, as well as being in a part of the country with easy access to a variety of outdoors sets, from Snow covered tundra, to desert, From Wild running rivers, to lakes. To small ghost mountain town, to sprawling metropolis. Tacoma was perfect for the porn industry.
