and the scene where he takes down Marla's hair is actually kind of sweet (and then she blows him immediately afterwards).
What were you expecting, serious plot development? Ha! That would have been pretty awesome had they thrown a completely decent, plot-worthy scene into the middle of this thing.
@alphanumeric1971: I see by your icon you are Canadian, so you might not understand how a civilized society operates, but I assure you, American women appreciate a little extra attention.
Please don't feed the whole NSFW article to the RSS feed. For those of us that use an RSS reader, it's not amusing to be scrolling down and accidentally stop on a NSFW picture before scrambling to close the browser. If it's a NSFW article, please try to keep it just to the title.
@salviati: Not actually sure how to do that. I use Google reader, and it serves up just the headlines,a nd then I can click to expand. What reader are you using?
>every porn video based on the franchise I've ever seen has featured a supremely unattractive actor playing Spock, and this is by no means an exception
Ouch! Here's hoping the poor guy didn't read your review. "Supremely unattractive" is some harsh phrasing... The guy is dressed like a Vulcan and showing the world his "little Spock" for a few hundred bucks. Now people are saying he's too ugly for porn! 2009 just isn't his year, I guess.
I know you marked this as NSFW, but I was still a bit surprised by the cunnalingual shot, there. I'm not complaining, I've just never seen anything near that x-rated on IO9, before.
@MonstersAndRockets: It's not so much that he's physically unattractive, it's more that face he keeps making the whole time, like he's bored and annoyed by the sex he's having.
@Charlie Jane Anders: Well, again, I wasn't complaining. I was just really surprised to see it. It sounds like you've shown nudity and sex acts on the site before, and I just happened to miss them.
@MonstersAndRockets: yeah, I remember the found footage of the movie about the cosmic orgasm... that was full on porn (look up NSFW and then sort by popularity, it's in there).
I think it's kind of cool that I see io9 as running the closest in temperature to Fleshbot... and why they are my two favorite places in the Gawker universe. (They also both have the best comment community)
Consumerist isn't there either, and they don't have linkbacks to the rest of the Gawker network on their respective sites either. Defamer's basically part of Gawker main now.
Somehow I knew you'd be the one to review this, Charlie.
...And that's why you're my favourite :)
No comments on Jada Fire? I thought she was a little bland, to be honest - in everything I've seen her in she seems to have little personality beyond "Stick that in there, you stick that in the other one, I'll moan for a bit" - which is a shame when you consider how enjoyable Sasha and Aurora were in the few moments they *tried* to act before getting down to it.
The male cast were uniformly meh, in my opinion, except for Manning.
still, nice to see some Sci Fi porn getting attention. would be nice to see a terminator parody - it may end up being better than Salvation.
Honestly by the time I got to Jada Fire's segment my eyes were crossing with boredom. But yeah, she was awfully bland. And the way they segued into the "having sex" part of the scene was weirdly abrupt. She's like "what do we do?" and Kirk and Spock just whip out their penises. The stuff afterwards, about how she wasn't even infected, was just a bit weird.
HEY - let's try to have science fiction stories on io9 - this site is turning into a giant marketing mouthpiece - and now for the porn purveyors great!

I mean for gods sake you've got Bloodcopy, an ad site for a movie. How can a porn coverage site be any worse?
(It's much better in my opinion...)

I was also sad that Sulu did not get any!
