Vivid Studio Insider for March 7th, 2008

"HUGE BUZZ" FOR SUNNY LOVES MATT -- AVN reporter Mike Albo says Vivid Girl Sunny Leone 's boy/girl debut in " Sunny Loves Matt " "signals a new direction for the starlet's career and is generating a huge industry and consumer buzz." Albo quotes Shannon Nutt of DVD Empire saying, "Sunny may love Matt, but if our pre-book numbers on this release are to be believed, everybody loves Sunny. This is one of the most talked-about adult releases out there right now, starring one of Vivid's most popular talents, and we expect it to be a big hit with our customers. Everything about this release screams "blockbuster.'" Her sentiment was echoed by Vivid national sales manager David Peskin , who was quoted as saying, "The pre-book numbers are through the roof, both on DVD and Blu-Ray. Consumers keep calling and e-mailing from all over the world asking when they can purchase it. This is undoubtedly one of the biggest titles of the year." The film's director, B. Skow , told AVN, "It's a totally different type of movie than Vivid normally puts out. It's an all-sex movie with tons of tease. Sunny does her first boy/girl scene and also a three-way with Monique Alexander and a guy. She also does a girl/girl scene with AnnMarie . The scenes are lit beautifully and the tease is shot POV style so you're real close to the girls. There's a good 15 minutes of tease before each scene." Skow also notes, "The movie is three hours and 20 minutes long. We took a lot of things like ads off the DVD so we could include all the scenes and extras." Sunny told Albo about her motivations for dong a boy/girl movie: "One of the last movies I made was ' The Sunny Experiment ' and one of the scenes I did was a threesome. I really wanted to jump into the scene, but I couldn't because of my contract. That's when I decided I wanted to go in a new direction with my career. I re-signed with Vivid to do more movies, and I'm looking forward to doing more scenes like the ones in "Sunny Loves Matt .'"

VIVID-ALT'S "ROLE MODELING" GETS RAVE FROM XCRITIC - " Dana DeArmond 's "Role Modeling " has received a coveted "Highly Recommended" review from XCritic. The reviewer who calls himself (or herself) The Mooninite says the movie is "proof positive of (Dana's) abilities as a porno tutor." Dana interviews each of her students and "surprisingly enough, it works really well...anyone with an interest in who these people are should find this interesting and/or at least amusing." The Mooninite writes that " Role Modeling is as much a personality piece as it is a sex film but it works well on both levels. It serves to introduce us in a very casual and fun way to a few newcomers while showing off their talents on camera. It's unpretentious and quirky and it's also very sexy. Vivid-Alt has done a fine job with the presentation but most importantly, the sex scenes hold up well. Highly recommended."

"THE BAD LUCK BETTIES" PARTY IS A MELLOW SUCCESS - A! Entertainment in Hollywood covered Eon McKai 's launch party for " The Bad Luck Betties ." Reporter Tony Batman says it was a "Rock-A-Billy Night" at the Redwood Bar and Grill . "Everyone was dressed to the theme of the night... all the stars of the movie were wearing their Bad Luck Bettie jackets...the atmosphere was fun and playful and there were smiles all around the room. Not your normal porn outing for sure." Batman says director Octavio Winkytiki and Eon were in the room talking to everyone and handing out copies of the new movie.
