Tempo fa avevo trovato un passo di lukeford sulla genesi del termine gonzo:
"AVN Publisher Paul Fishbein: "When Mark Stone created the first Radical Affairs, we didn't know how to classify it. It wasn't a feature and it wasn't an all-sex tape. It wasn't amateur, yet it didn't have a story. It was a magazine tape, but so were vignettes, shot on Betacam in a studio. It was confusing.
"Enter the totally-invented term, "gonzo," which hearkens back to the gonzo journalism of Hunter S. Thompson and seemed an appropriate term for adult video that we weren't able to categorize. John Stagliano created a genre for his Buttman series, but we called them features. Ed Powers founded his wacky world of Dirty Debutantes, but we called them amateur. Wasn't it all the same thing?
"We split hairs and defined and redefined our sections over and over again. Couldn't we just put them all together? But how do we reward those those spending money on their features, or shooting on film. How can you compare More Dirty Debutantes 48 with a lesbian feature from Lipstik Video? What made Sodomania, reviewed as a feature, different from Private Stories, reviewed as gonzo? Private Stories has a huge budget and is shot in exotic places all over the world on the highest quality cameras. Creme de la Face, until recently, was shot on a Hi-8 camera. How can they both be gonzo?
"Maybe AVN created a monster because the term "gonzo" is now part of the pornography lexicon. After several years, gonzo has been considered a legitimate sub-genre of the adult industry. But now everything seems to fit that category, and it's too bad.
"Gonzo exists because the ease with which people could purchase and use video cameras spawned a whole new generation of video makers. Witness America's Funniest Home Videos. Pets falling out of car windows became more interesting and funnier than a scripted sitcom. Real sex - the amateur generation - became more interesting than seeing Johnathan Morgan playing a detective in a one-day wonder... Amateur video...begat pro-am which begat gonzo. It's all practically the same thing."
