I would have no problem with pornographic sex scenes in properly produced films, with a proper script and everything. But I have no interest in professional production values if all it brings is better lighting and a ton of makeup and fake moans.
I'll generalize to say that what you're looking for is a genuine connection between the performers. It not only shows better consent on set (it's hard to break consent and still have a genuine connection), but it's just better in general. This doesn't always happen in amateur porn, but it's more likely. It does happen at larger studios, but they usually have to be run better.
One thing that I think Kink dot com pioneered was showing an out of character interview with the performers ahead of time. Adulttime has picked this up as well. They sometimes cut it for the versions that go on tube sites (either shortening it or removing it altogether), and I think that forms part of the argument that, yes, you should pay for porn if it's within your means. If you like something coming out of a studio on a tube site, they probably have a lot more of it that doesn't even show up outside their pay site.
And ass warts. Don't forget about that.
