A lot of people judge a porn film by one thing alone: Does it help them reach the point of no return?

Paul Fishbein isn’t like that. He’s seen thousands of porn movies, but he cares about them as films, not just mere masturbatory aids.

In 1983, Fishbein co-created Adult Video News, a business magazine about the adult film industry. The goal of the magazine was to report on the porn biz the same way Variety or the Hollywood Reporter reported on showbiz.

Fishbein sold the magazine in 2010, but he still maintains an interest in film fornication, as is evident in his most recent project: “X-Rated: the Greatest Adult Movies of All-Time,” that debuted in 2015 on Showtime.

The film became available on VOD July 15. In honor of that, Fishbein offers his choices for the top 10 porn movies of all time.

1
No. 1: Nothing to Hide (1981)
X-Rated: the Greatest Adult Movies of All-Time
Fishbein says 1981's "Nothing To Hide" is the best porn film of all time because it has good acting and a sweet romance that has never been duplicated in a sex flick.
2
No. 2: The Opening Of Misty Beethoven (1975)
X-Rated: the Greatest Adult Movies of All-Time
"The Opening Of Misty Beethoven" (1975) is considered groundbreaking for the way it incorporated sex into a story.
3
No. 3: Scoundrels (1982)
X-Rated: the Greatest Adult Movies of All-Time
The 1982 flesh flick "Scoundrels" was the firstever winner of the AVN Best Picture Award. Fishbein says this dirty drama about a philandering psychiatrist contains Ron Jeremy's best porn performance ever.
4
No. 4: The New Devil in Miss Jones (2005)
X-Rated: the Greatest Adult Movies of All-Time
Remakes rarely surpass the original, but Fishbein says this 2005 remake of a 1973 porn classic improves on the original by removing the suicide part of the plot. Jenna Jameson stars, but the original Miss Jones, actress Georgina Spelvin, makes a cameo appearance.
5
No. 5 Blonde Ambition (1981)
X-Rated: the Greatest Adult Movies of All-Time
Parodies make up a major part of porn these days, but 1981's "Blonde Ambition" set the stage by combining the innocence of 1940s MGM backstage musicals with hardcore porn.
6
No. 6: Fallen (2008)
X-Rated: the Greatest Adult Movies of All-Time
"Fallen" makes the cut because star Jessica Drake manages to have sex in every type of possible combination while still giving a great acting performance as an angel stuck in purgatory.
7
No. 7: Corruption (2006)
X-Rated: the Greatest Adult Movies of All-Time
Fishbein gives 2006's "Corruption" high marks for the way it touches on issues like 1st Amendment rights and freedom of expression while still having lots of hot sex.
8
No. 8: Roommates (1981)
X-Rated: the Greatest Adult Movies of All-Time
"Roommates" was a 1981 porn that attempted to reach mainstream Americans. Fishbein said it's the first porn to be done from a woman's perspective.
9
No. 9: Fashionistas (2002)
X-Rated: the Greatest Adult Movies of All-Time
"Fashionistas" currently holds the record for most AVN film nominations -- 22 in all. It is also considered the first mainstream porn to heavily feature S&M scenes.
10
No. 10: Pirates (2005)
X-Rated: the Greatest Adult Movies of All-Time
"Pirates" was the first porn film with a million dollar budget. Fishbein said the level of special effects and production values as well as the sex caught everyone by surprise.
