Why Naked Circus?

We’re firm believers that people don’t really want to know about us. We’re actually quite dull. We’re the potato salad people you often meet at community picnics—you know the ones that at first bite seem quite good, but then, after a few more swallows, you find are dull, bland, too salty, and really, not that good for you. Of course, this reaction usually occurs after we admit to developing sites like Naked Circus.

“What is that?” they ask, trying not to blush, trying to hide their shock.

“It’s a website that features nude news from around the world.”

This is where heads nod, slowly, puzzled expressions: “Why?”

Is it really that hard to understand? The perverse depths of the American imagination defy belief. Porn revenues, in this country, are larger than the revenues of the NFL, NBA and Major League Baseball combined— 57 billion dollars per year to be exact. This is shocking, considering that the overwhelming majority of people at any given community picnic will gasp at the mere mention of adult entertainment. But we know that more of you are watching porn than will ever admit. (after all, we don’t have the $57 billion necessary to keep the porno mills grinding). So, this site is for you perverts. It’s not pornographic in the sense that you’ll find Mindy, your next door neighbor, posting pictures of her bestial lesbian trysts with her beloved bull mastiff, Mitzie. It’s pornographic in the sense that we’ve pulled news from major newspapers across the globe to showcase the human impulse to be naked.

Why? Well, maybe we want a piece of the porn pie. But, really, on a more personal note—We have written a screenplay by the same name—Naked Circus. As you might suspect, this screenplay explores the very same perverse inclinations we journal here. Agent after agent has insisted that there is no audience for such a dark and twisted tale, and though we have argued (using our wealth of porn consumption statistics) that there must be, they refuse to believe. We need your help.

Show those insufferable bastards that you would like to see Naked Circus—a film about the dark corners of the human imagination, not about pornography itself—made. We can not stress enough that there are no actual pornographic scenes in the film. (Well, none that really compete with Tom and Nicole’s naked flop, “Eyes Wide Shut”—The horror!)

Ultimately, we’re just two struggling screenwriters on a quest to discover an audience. As PT Barnum once said, “There’s a sucker born every minute,” and let us not forget, that sucker was naked.
