Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

Thanks for all the fish.

It was killing me to have to wait until after the episode...

(And someone posted in Kafka - before I saw the episode - that they were worried there was trouble in the Angel thread when the posts jumped, but it just turned out to be Lindsey-oost, and I got all excited and thought I was spoiled for a Lindsey return, but it was just nostalgia. Still, the episode was rather a disappointment for me because I somehow expected him to turn up.)

YOu know that bit I wrote of Scruffy!Wes watching Xander taking a shower in the half-ruined building? My muse just edited so Xander's got an eyepatch. Cheerful, lusty, Eyepatch!Xander. Oh, and with longer, messier hair. It's a good life.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Working on a piece and need a fact -- is there a "standard" or at least average length (in minutes, duh) for porn movies?

Thanks for all the fish.

Well, some of the 'plottier' ones might be 40 or 45 minutes long. Most are just loops - lots of sex scenes just cut together with little regard for story or coherence (or lighting, for fuck's sake, could it be any more unflattering?). Say, 5-10 minutes for each individual scene, 5-10 scenes.

Not that I'm an expert or anything.

All that I know about pornography comes from Boogie Nights and True Porn Clerk Stories which doesn't seem like much of a baseline. Why can't my plot bunnies involve obscure French films or open hearth cooking or something with which I have actual experience?

Theo, just Google for some porn DVD resellers, check the length on 'em, and find the average. It's what I'd do.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

check the length on 'em

not touching that straight line with a ten foot - oh, wait.

Strawberry disappointment.

Saw a documentary on this. Really. And it said that from pick up to pop shot the average time was twenty minutes. Apparently this is the average length of time that the gentleman watcher, uh, retains interest. Of course you may have more than one pick up. So the length is likely to be divisible by twenty minutes.

So, um remember the challenge from a week or two ago, where it was male/female, hotel room, gun? I finally got around to finishing my story for it -- typically long after the challenge is over, and um, also I went with Due South... but mainly, I finished it, so I might as well post up all 445 words of it and bore you with it here.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

Yes, please, Theo.
