Nick Manning likes to give his fans what they want. Apparently the fans have spoken for the 12th time and this is what they want. We can't be entirely sure whose fans have spoken though. Nick is the star meat slinger, but Sky Blue is the director. It also seems that the fans can wait a while to get what they want. This thing was shot a while ago. Perhaps Nick has been saving things up for the fans. I still wonder are these Nick's fans we're talking about. Are they women who want to see him fuck? Are they guys who want to see Nick work with specific women? More importantly, is it the fans who are telling Nick to growl like a beast and mug for the camera? Are these scenes supposed to romantic pairings for the ladies or are we watching a movie for guys who want to see him pound his chest and scream out about “dropping loads” while fucking chicks? (If so, would someone please cut off those fans' fingers so they can stop instructing Nick to like a freaked out assbag on steroids?)

The movie opens with Nick already working his tongue into Dillan Lauren. That keeps him from going into full Conan mode too early. For some reason Dillan decides that she needs to pretend to gag on Nick's modest member as he growls down at her. (Pop quiz hot shot: Nick's roid rage grunting or Dillan's pornified quag symphony; which one kills your wood faster?) I'm sure that she is capable of giving a very good blowjob, but this just isn't her best work. The bright white background isn't helping the visuals any either. Eventually Dillan's talk takes over and we can actually hear her over Nick. That is a huge improvement, but it isn't enough to make this scene anything more than average. They fuck in cowgirl and in mish. She even takes it in the ass. (There is at least one really bad cut in mid line.) It just isn't a great scene. The close ups feel spliced in awkwardly and there seems to be little or no chemistry between the performers. When he shoots on her face, the best part is that we get to try another scene. I've seen Dillan do better so maybe Nick just doesn't know how to get the best from her.

Perhaps we will get more from Olivia O'Lovely. Nick tries to explain that he's tired of doing things the way other people wants him to, but this just seems like wasted time. Wouldn't most of us rather hear from Olivia? We would think that Nick going down on Olivia would cut out the chatter, but somehow he manages to grunt into her valley and even turn this loving act into something so over the alpha-male top that one has to wonder how Olivia kept herself from busting up. As Olivia fills her mouth with his meat, Nick poses like some cheesy parody of the male porn star with a Billy Idol sneer and an action hero pose. I guess they have to fill the time with something since Olivia clearly isn't challenged by what he shoving towards the back of her throat. The silly posing kind of takes away any appeal this movie might have for women. Nick's a good looking guy, but every time I glanced over at Mrs. Rog she was laughing at his antics instead of admiring his chiseled good looks. That can't be a good sign. Nick stands her up and fucks her from behind, growling out orders as he tires his best to fuck her with more dick than he has. Some of the camera angles are questionable as well. We spend and awful long time underneath them as they fuck. This isn't the most figure flattering look at Olivia and is just seems off. Even the virtual slam dunk shots seem off. Come on, it's cowgirl and she has a big ass. Shoot that straight on rather than some half ass sideways angle. He finally puts an end to it with his trademark “Droppin' Loads growl” as he dribbles his ball batter onto her face. If the fans have spoken and asked for this, then I request that they stay mute from now on.

Brooke Haven tells us that she has wanted to fuck Nick for a long time. She tells us that she masturbates while thinking about Nick and then reads an email from a female fan that gets all juicy. Hearing his name brings Nick running and he plants a big squid-like kiss on Brooke's lips. He eventually tongue fucks her and that seems to make Brooke happy. When she starts sucking we get some very poor angles. Why are we staring at stretch marks on the backs of her thighs when she is giving a blowjob? I would be tempted to wonder if Nick has borrowed Justin Slayer's camera guy, but as bad as some of the shots are, they just aren't moving around enough to be the same. Brooke throws her feet up in the air and seems to enjoy herself as Nick fucks her. We can stop harping on the growling because apparently that is just Nick being Nick. There are some good shots here, but also some that don't quite look right. When you have two passionate, sweaty performers, the longer shots seem to show off what they are going a little better. On the other hand, the tighter shots of the anal penetration are pretty sweet. He pulls out and shoots all over her face.

Nick is impressed by Jeanie Marie's outfit. It's a purple bikini and some Frankenstripper shots. Since the clothes don't stay on that long, she doesn't have much of a chance to show them off. Instead the camera tries to explore her body a bit. There is cool jazz sax in the background and of course that doesn't bit at all when Nick grabs her by the hair and snarls. (Dude, you've either got to do the pretty boy thing or go full out jungleball on her.) It works a little better when Jeanie is gently nibbling on his sack and teasing the head of his cock with her tongue. In the last scene I enjoyed the long shots during the fucking, but they are a mistake this time. Jeanie looks so bored during doggy that you can almost see her balancing her checkbook while Nick fucks her from behind. It picks up a bit later when he pounds her harder, but we can't help but think that someone prompted her wake up a bit. After another forgettable scene, he says something about the “fun” being back in porno as he shoots on her face. If this if fun, please sign me up for “Torture and Boredom 101.”

Cindy Crawford and Simone finish out the movie. This time around we get a super hot looking girl doing some great oral. Cindy is one of porn's best and she really shows her stuff here. Just mute Nick and enjoy Cindy as she stares into the camera and melts the fucking screen. This girl combines beauty with raw sexuality about as well as anyone in the industry and we have to love her for it. Simone is cute, but she seems out of the place in this scene. Everything seems to be happening in spite of her being there. When Nick gets busy fucking Cindy she manages to talk loudly enough to drown him out most of the time. Thankfully that carries over to Simone who also stays quite boisterous as she gets boffed. Right in the middle of this excellent scene Nick turns to the camera and screams “dirty bitches gettin' fucked a couple of times.” I just busted out laughing and so did Mrs. Rog. Either he was going for chuckles and should be praised or he just made himself an even bigger porn-clown than Ed Powers. There is a whole lot of great sex here, but the humor (or utter insanity) hurts things more than a little bit. Once Simone gets a chance to fuck, she does a really nice job, bouncing on Nick's dick like she loves it. (Why the camera shoots this all cock-eyed is anyone's guess. Cindy ends up sucking down the load like the super star sex slut she is, but even in this fine scene, there are huge holes.

Look, you either love Nick Manning's antics or you hate them. (I've got nothing against him personally, I'm just not quite sure what he's doing.) There isn't a lot of room for in between. He's a handsome guy, no question there, but the way he acts in scenes probably alienates the part of the audience that can best appreciate that. My biggest problem with this movie has little to do with Manning though. It's the camerawork that really distracts from the heat. I'm not sure exactly what is going on, but it just doesn't work. Sometimes the shots aren't well framed, other times the hard-core stuff just feels awkwardly inserted. Whatever rhythm there might be generally gets lost because of the technical failings of this movie. There are some good moments for Manning fans I suppose. Cindy Crawford helps Simone really light up the screen. She is fantastic and manages to make enough noise to drown out the man chatter. Some of the other girls look really bored, but Cindy and Brooke seem to really enjoy working with Nick. Those scenes are worth watching even if you aren't one of the fans speaking up. If you are, then please email me and explain exactly what part of Conan the Load Dropper persona appeals to you and why.
