Girlfriends Films Named Adult Studio of the Year by XCritic.com

RESEDA, Calif.—Girlfriends Films was declared the Adult Studio of the Year by XCritic.com. The popular adult movie review site notes Girlfriends Films' position at the forefront of the adult industry, while providing a thriving business model in the current economy. Going beyond its stellar reviews of Girlfriends Films' DVDs, the honor from XCritic.com recognizes the studio's business practices, performers, membership website, and charity work. "Girlfriends Films shows no matter what your size, you can make a big impact in this industry and plot a path for others to follow," wrote XCritic.com Editor Chris Thorne. "More than the little engine that could, Girlfriends Films has been on the forefront of a major change in the adult industry and a model for an adult studio that not only has survived during the Great Recession, it's thrived. 2012 should be an even better year for Girlfriends Films." "It doesn't surprise me at all that this small niche studio has become a powerful force in adult," added XCritic.com contributor Rob Perez. "Girlfriends Films has defined girl/girl porn by producing films that are story and character driven, combined with beautiful women and hot, titillating, erotic lesbian sex, better than any other studio I know of. Quality, quality, quality outweighs all else and Girlfriends Films has accomplished this since day one. I've been a fan for nearly that long and look forward to more great product from Girlfriends Films in the years to come." "This award comes almost ten years to the day—January 6, 2002—that Girlfriends Films opened for business," responded Girlfriends Films owner Dan O'Connell. "Since the very beginning we've always put our best foot forward when it comes to representing the industry and helping form its public image. So this is an especially timely and wonderful reward for ten years of putting in honest work and producing good products." "We have worked hard and smart in regard to spreading our content over all outlets," continues O'Connell. "Girlfriends Films movies are available on DVD, in stores, our membership site, VOD, and cable, and we remain vigilant in attacking piracy. From the standpoint of strategy, this is one of the most difficult parts of our business. Stores and distributors gave us our start, and it's important that we continue to give them an abundance of fresh product that has never been released on other platforms. We keep a six-month waiting period from the time a DVD gets released until it appears on VOD or cable." "We look at the adult business as if it is almost a public service," he continued. "All of us in the adult industry are providing products that help satisfy a variety of sexual interests and desires that often aren't satiated in other ways. As laughter is often called the 'best medicine,' orgasms and sexual contentment are also important to a person's well being. Our thanks goes to XCritic for recognizing us. We are looking forward to 2012 and have plans to make Girlfriends Films an even better studio, in all respects!" "Thank you so much to Chris Thorne and his amazing staff of reviewers," added Girlfriends Films Vice President Moose. "XCritic.com has always had a great feel for what consumers want out of their adult movies, so being named Studio of the Year is a huge honor." 2011 was an amazing year for Girlfriends Films, which included record sales, two new and acclaimed series, notable industry accolades, the release of its 300th title, two distribution deals, the launch of its first membership site plus a foray into publishing. Girlfriends Films recently published its first book, Lesbian Sex Positions, and will immediately embark on a full year of promotions, which extend beyond traditional markets. The success of its 2012 wall calendar has Girlfriends Films designing two collectable calendars for 2013. Additional exciting plans for the new year include new original series, more episodes of the acclaimed GFFMembers.com talk shows "The Vault" and "The Kinky & Creepy Show," the launch of a lucrative affiliate program, distribution of additional producers (based on the success of movies by Juicy Pink Box and Tammy Sands), a second membership website, and development of a novelty patent. In 2012, Girlfriends Films will continue its renowned monthly charity program, as well as working side by side with the Free Speech Coalition to protect the industry's rights. 2011 saw Girlfriends Films rise to become one of the elite adult studios. In 2012, Girlfriends Films will continue its lead by example, operating under the direction of Dan O'Connell, with both ethics and passion.
