Gemini Men

Short Review

There is an exclusive DVD store for Mark Geminis Gemini Men, but if you join the site here you can get to view his videos as a member, and you can download them easily. This is a pretty unique site in that it has been around for a while, it has lots of stock, it's all about varied amateur guys, and, well, I am not sure whats happening at the moment as the site has not updated for a year; but there is so much to see that it's going to take you a years worth of membership to see it all.

Ok, so I ducked out on counting all the content, but there were two section to the site: in one where 15 index pages with 30 sample shots (around 450 videos) and in the other there were eight pages with ten shots, so around 80 videos/guys. Actually there are more guys than that as many of these videos are couples in action scenes.

These two parts are the original Gemini Men from 2006 when the site started (though another note says they have been online since 2001, so I was a bit confused) to 2009, and then from July 2009 to April 2010 when it looks to me as if the site stopped, dead. There is a note saying that more content is coming soon, but that's about a year old now, so were not sure what is going on. But are sure that the 500+ videos you have already are exclusive and only otherwise available in the stores.

And who are these guys? Well, these are all amateur men aged around 20 and upwards Id say, with some 18 + and some slightly older, some smooth some with tattoos, some alternative looking guys, some straight and some gay, it's a real mixed bag of models. There is usually a short write-up about the video and who is in it, whether it is their first time, how old they are and when the movie was posted. Then you see a set of thumbnail pics which constitute the gallery. These clicked up to 400 x 600 in size and were quite clear and focused.

And the videos were fine too. These are not top-studio productions, the whole site has a nice amateur feel to it and these are amateur performers, so you're not looking at Jeff Stryker (showing my age) or Jeremy Hall here. You find quiet movies, often filmed against a black background to give them some mysterious atmosphere, and silent men. I just caught a movie with one guy blindfolded getting his first male-wank from another guy; it ran for around 20 minutes, I had the lower resolution version and that was just fine, though it did leave me feeling a bit, well, was that it? It's a question of trying them all out until you hit the jackpot an find a guy, or guys, who are right up your street. And when you do, you are not disappointed at all.

You can download these movies in WMV format at two qualities and the files come down nice and fast. If you want to stream you have to click over to the on demand set-up, and if you want to own them on hard copies there is also a link to a store. And that's it for Gemini Men: a good stock of genuine amateur videos that you can download, but no news on updates at the moment.

The site has a very basic and home-made look to it. You will wonder if it has been put together by an amateur at home and I reckon it probably has. But it all works well and it's actually easy to manage once you get the hang of it. You have two sections really, the older movies and the not so old movies, and the home page shows you which bit to click to get to what. It's basically an old members area and a new-look one, though the new look one is not much improved from the old look one.

The site also says it is now Mac compatible, which is good news, and technically it is very simple: WMV downloads, pics opening in the same window, clear links for navigation and basic texts.

You don't get involved at all. There are no rates, comments forum, message board, nothing like that; I didn't even see a link to hep without having to go to the tour area again. But as long as you're ok without such modern things you'll be ok. There are some descriptions and a little text and information, and that's it.

So you've got many pages which are very simply laid out and with few access links. (I had to back button a lot to get back to the home page.) But yet this basic layout and design, navigation and lack of interactivity don't really matter. In fact that lack of all these things makes it much easier to get straight to the videos.

Conclusion

You're looking at a very basic site that contains a good number of original videos with amateur guys, many on their first time out, and which come with decent photos. It's easy to navigate and use, it's not expensive and it serves up what it promises on the tour. But it doesn't seem to have updated for a year and there is no news, no interactivity, no way of getting involved and it's all rather simple, dark and maybe too basic. It is, though, original and exclusive.
