The Downfall Of Czech Gay Porn Studios

[Carolina HM]

good bye, staxus!

no updates, no new materials.

I think it's downfall.

View attachment 99200611

That's really sad. They're once were my favorite site.

BoyFun is having a not good moment too. After the war, their Russian models pool was reduced to the same 4 or 3 guys. And only a small % of the Colombian twinks* they cast are as cute as the (everyday diminishing) Czech models. Most of them wouldn't be casted even as recent as 2019.



* which is CRAZY, because there are literally millions of cute boys here in South America, of all types, races and sizes.

... there are literally millions of cute boys here in South America, of all types, races and sizes.

Totally agree. Do you remember OTB Videos?
With super cute Alfredo, Eduardo, Juan-Carlos, William, Xavier, etc.

Yeah its actually shocking... once they been the first european online gay porn site. But they did so many stupid decisions... they really did burn money. Like i htink it was 2020/2021 when they hired the main BelAmi scout to get them new models... the price tag for that: 6000 Euro per month!
Beyond crazy... you can pay that if your BA, but staxus did bet here and lost. Also the same producer for years now. Pictures and videos got worse in the last 1,5-2 years, location is nearly always the same fake studio with some new painting and changed beds etc.
And they started to do all time sales. Thats so stupid from an business perspective. its like you would get gucci always on sale. I would miss the point of a sale, it would just bring less money from all customers.
Honestly, they did run down the site. They didnt use chances in the past. And now they dont update for weeks and than maybe you get 1-2 scenes and than again weeks nothing. Thats why they removed the dates from the front page...

Yeah no clue how BoyFun finds these ugly ones... sure you need to find boys who want to do porn first. I think the issue is they make a calculation that the production should not cost more than in europe. But you have automatically higher costs for flights and extra apartment for the producer. And maybe they did choose quantity over quality (they have like 3 updates per week, sometimes 4). So many updates can only be achived by very low production costs.
About the russians:
That has very specific reasons, first of the russian producer had already a bunch of models with him, so they started with i think 10 models or more. The russian guy than failed more and more to find new models and this is also because of the extreme social hate in russia about LGBTQ. There are now even moves towards forced therapy to make you str8. So its a high risk to be openly gay, even in cities like St. Petersburg.

Totally agree. Do you remember OTB Videos?

Well OTB is closed for a decade i think.
If i remember right, rumor was that the payment processor/credit card companies banned it from using their services. You can only speculate why... can be missing contracts, minors... who knows.

Staxus should just focus on making their current models look hotter, that is what Belami has done from the start. Models like
Justin Saradon and Elio Chalamet started as scrawny when they debuted and then bulked up, I'd saw they even became eye candy when they weren't before. I'm not saying they are what's holding belami together, but the site knows how to entice its viewers. Sometimes you have to do the best with what you got.

I came to this thread to get some idea about the current mindset of Czech your men. I'm convinced that many of them just aren't interested in doing porn side from jerking off on a couch. The Czech Republic may have found alternatives to making money but the rest of the world may be just getting started.

A lot of Russian porn seem to had its golden age at the same time as the Czech Republic did. Russian sites like Alexboys, Aaromcute, Hotguysfuck and the legendary Teensboysworld had the same " type " of model as the Czech boys. Since the war in Russia, things are very uncertain. I follow two Russian models who were making porn prior to the War breaking out, who lost their Onlyfans privileges and are desperately trying to leave the country. They are both in great shape, which means they are surely looking to be drafted to fight, when they just want to make porn and carve out a living.

The state of that aside, Staxus can still figure out a way to survive if they use what they got and make it better. Also they can remaster their old videos. They already started with vids from 2005 to make them look like they were produced in 2020. If they lower their subscriptions and continue to get creative, they can make it

 

[nekszus]

[Staxus'] Pictures and videos got worse in the last 1,5-2 years, location is nearly always the same fake studio with some new painting and changed beds etc.

Totally agree. Do you remember Staxus Golden Era with Vlado Iresch? Filming in military baracks (with full army clothes), building looks like real prison, rented a firefighter trucks and clothes, ambulance etc. Filming in nature, at beaches, forest etc. Good script, tons of performers, cum eating and pissing scenes. Sigh...

Well OTB is closed for a decade i think.

Yes, I know. I don't think filmed with minors. There are dozen of remastered, reedited materials. I think it was piracy and torrent problem. I remember some "download only" movie was avaiable in torrent sites before official release.

Russian boys:
It's interesting. Some super cute, and some not. Or both For example: Max Gen was super hot guy with cool scenes, and later looks like older and less enthusiasm.

If they [Staxus] lower their subscriptions and continue to get creative, they can make it

Yes. But nothing. If one month they put 2 trailers and put 2 scenes, more than zero. And it's just 2 real scene and half dvd material. They be creative.

They dont have exclusive models anymore. Its the same guys as everyone else. Thats already an issue. And i dont think they have any financial power anymore to do anything about it.
Yeah south america is the place right now. I just wonder what will be after that?!
And looking to what boyfun gets from there... not that amazing or worth it.

Your actually right. There was a time when a lot of porn came from russia. Str8 and gay. One would be surprised how many of those producers than later went to europe. I know two dozens of people who run away from russia and now either own a model agency in budapest, run a production (str8) etc.
If i remember right there was a raid at some time by police about the whole porn productions and afzer that they clsoed down or the people moved away.
Alexboys was actually run by a german ;-) Teenboysworld was great with amazing models indeed
Well the russions now went to the cam sites... so you can still watch them. I am a bit critic about this as every coin which goes into the system will help preserve it. On the other side, the gays in russia are a endangered minority.

Well, remastering isnt that difficult these days...
Honestly i think they are done. Its just like with everyhting else in life, either you adapt to changes and problems or your gone. They didnt adapt. Still the same producer for years now (they guy got rich from them). They cut down on costs by reduced shooting time. In the past sometimes scenes went for 8h now its more like 3-4h. And the constant sale thing is a huge mistake too.
Also they cut down their affiliates with comissions and that hurt the sells.

They had a momentum in 2015-2018 when they really had great models and scenes. They should have separate the site into 2 more and especially bring blacks with whites scenes... cause that did sell well!
Or if you got a great model like Noah Matous, shoot archive material as much as possible so you have later scenes to please your memmebers with a model which was a seller. They didnt do it....
The guy got HIV from his private drugs fucking... good model gone forever as no one will shot with a positive guy bare even if pills supres the virus.

How do you know all this?

 

[Cdalo]

How do you know all this?

I think he collabs or collaborated with people in the eastern Europe porn scene. It sounds like he had some inside knowledge about the inner workings of the production and the models themselves. I think he also produces his own porn although for private viewing, as he pretty much mention it a few pages ago. Which is good as we need someone with exclusive information over there.

For the American porn stars, you can find out what kindergarten they went to in just a few hours. Not that you should tho

At least someone reads my stuff
First part is correct. Lets say, a few male and female models you seen in the last years came from me.
No private viewing things, I do my own stuff. Str8 and gay, but for gay nothing published yet. I think you might see the launch of the site at the end of the year (wont mention right now the name).

And yes that is also a (small) reason why you see less models cause I just stopped to supply them to those cockroaches of producers (sorry most of them are a pain in the ass).

In str8 porn you have way more professionals who are on time and working great.

Is this new site gay or str8?

gay

 

[madamedomina]

This web site have hot russian men, in the pay web site only 0ne dollars at month, they have much more hot videos.

 

[nekszus]

Staxus resurrected.

Colab with carnal+ and own scene

 

[madamedomina]

Here super hot men from the Russia planet

 

[secondsky]

Yeah and its laughable.
Wasnt staxus once a twink site? At least two guys here are hunks and one even all over hairy.
Staxus always had once big issue.... they ignored the golden rule of business.
KNOW YOUR CUSTOMER

And as i say this... i might do a small survey here to catch what people like and what they dont like or miss with the current sites (boyfun/Staxus/helix).

I'm so ready to give my opinion and suggestions lmao

 

[MisterBrightside]

So mean!

Not only is it mean, but I’m not even sure it’s entirely accurate. You could easily cherry-pick worse-looking models from the olden days and better-looking models from today, and make the opposite argument. William Higgins debuts two new scenes per week, year after year, so they can’t all be winners.

Just seen some of the Latinos at Eastboys, and I gotta say not bad. But they need to do some fucking

It is absolutely accurate.
Dont pick "some" model.... just look through a bunch of pages with models from 2015-2018. and than look to the last months models.

And that there are issues with models, to find new ones, not even mentioning good looking ones, that is something i hear from every single producer i know in gay porn.
Even belami tried desperately to get some models back who left (some not published to this day btw).
That alone tells you something.

Staxus is totally fucked if you ask me... no clue what customer base they aim to.
Higgins at least secured the agent a few months ago who supplied models to Czech Hunter and most of the gay porn market. So they got a bit better by now because of this.

BoyFun is basically switching 50% to colombia, 25% russia (both cheap as fuck locations and models) and the rest is with some czechs. And they shit money with it as they even raised their prices even though the costs are lower
