Porn Stars to Mainstream Stars? James Deen and Lindsay Lohan in The Canyons

This is currently a trend and one I understand.

It's marketing, pure and simple.  Conservative American can scoff at it and say it's a terrible thing, but Porn is a Billion dollar a year business, and most likely, the conservative screaming about it is also the one downloading it.

Having said that, many of you know that there has been some people who have transfered over from porn to regular films.  Some have had successful careers at it, Traci Lords and Ron Jeremy are two of them.  We can argue that though Jenna Jameson is not the best actress in the world, her turn in Zombie Strippers was pretty good and it was a role that suited her well.

 Now here comes a new film, The Canyons.


 Starring Lindsay Lohan and Porn Star James Deen.  From Director Paul Schrader (American Gigolo) and writer Bret Easton Ellis (novel: American Psycho).

 This is marketing gold.  I'll tell you why.  Watch this ABC interview with Deen from February 2012.  You'll see what his fan base is and why putting him in a lead role opposite someone we all know, will only increase sales on the film.

3D Movie Porn, get ready for it!


Tinto Brass wants to get in your face

Tinto Brass, the man who made, and then loathed, 1979's Caligula (the hardcore sex scenes were edited in against his will), is planning what he's describing as the world's first-ever 3D pornographic production.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Brass announced in Rome that he thinks the time is right, in this post-Avatar world, to make an erotic film that fully utilizes the 3D format.

And his idea? "To revisit an abandoned project about a Roman emperor that was ruined by Americans, and go from there." Looks like he wants to create a more definitive Caligula, and this time we'll all experience it in our laps.

He's kicking off work on the script right now with the aim to shoot in May or June.

And in related news, Hollywood Wiretap relates that boundary-pushing maverick director Gaspar Noe may also be plotting to shoot his next film - talked up at Cannes as "a joyful movie with explicit sex" - in 3D. That one, however, is more of a rumour for now.

Dear Italy: welcome to the cinematic technological revolution, but did the leading light really have to be Tinto Brass?
