International Flash Reports! Power Law Checks Out Cinema L' Amour in Montreal, Fantasy Factory in Vancouver, & Erotik-Supermarkt in Frankfort, Germany in January 2023!

Doc here, a man who some say was once a regular contributor to the trade magazine, "Trampolines Weekly", bringing you the latest news in the jumping industry. 

One could make the argument that one of my favorite genres of adult theater reporting is from the international field of play. In past years here at The Journal, reports from Canada and Europe have been filled with intriguing details and some hot scenes.  I encourage you to check them out sometime by using the search box on the web version of this fine site.

I would like to introduce a new reporter here to The Journal, Power Law.  PL (to his friends) travels extensively, and has submitted terrific reports for Cinema L' Amour in Montreal, Quebec, Fantasy Factory in Vancouver, BC, and in Frankfort Germany, Erotik-Supermarkt

Here we go!

Hi Doc,

Long-time listener; first-time caller here. I have enjoyed reading about theatres scattered across the country, living vicariously through the reports and gathering intel for my own visits. Thanks to your hard work on our behalf, I’ve had the distinct pleasure of visits to the Paris and Oregon theatres in Portland (god rest their souls), the mighty Art Cinema in Hartford, and 15th Ave Theatre in Chicago, in addition to other visits to minor stars in the adult theatre constellation.

I travel a fair bit for business, so I thought it’s my turn to contribute to the collective good with a few reports from across the border in Canada and Germany. The following visits all happened during a spurt of travel over the last month or so. This report also represents an appeal for your fans to put more effort into reporting on theatre visits abroad. Here goes:

Cinéma L’Amour, 4015 St Laurent Blvd, Montreal, Canada
https://www.cinemalamour.com/en/

Cinéma L’Amour is located on a busy downtown street with lots of options for pre- and post-fun eating and drinking. Your readers might also be interested in the nearby Café Cléopatra, a divey stripper bar with some of the best mileage (touching everywhere except the kitty) and cheapest ($10/song) lap dances I’ve ever experienced. The entrance to the cinema is not private, but no one seems to give a shit in this progressive city. 

This grand old theatre is similar in atmosphere to the Art. There’s a huge main floor with padded theatre seating. On one side of the aisle is a roped-off couples section. The balcony is a VIP section for couples only, which I didn’t visit. As at the Art, there’s a lot of space towards the front of the theatre for curious viewers to observe what’s happening in the couple’s balcony (though sightlines aren’t as good as the Art).

My first visit was a Monday night, and I walked straight into the action. A very attractive, tight-bodied ~40-50-year-old woman with amazing breasts was naked and surrounded by a group of gropers. For at least 30 minutes, she alternated being fucked by her guy and blowing him, while accepting touching from the surrounding crowd and occasionally rewarding the exposed cocks with some jacking. Quite the scene. 

After some time in the melee, I sat back on the other side to observe and see what else might happen. A foursome of college-types came in and sat in the roped-off couples area, but they kept hands firmly in laps and left within 30 minutes. There was some nice showing off by a few couples in the balcony, with the usual line of viewers enjoying that sight from the front of the main floor. I visited again a few days later on a Wednesday night, which is trans night. It was a lot quieter, but for those into that sort of thing there were a few hot trans women enjoying themselves and others on the main floor, along with one or two couples putting on shows in the VIP balcony.

All in all, this clean and well-attended theatre is highly recommended.

Fantasy Factory, 1155 Davie St, Vancouver, Canada
This sex shop in the gay neighborhood of Vancouver recently opened a “theatre”. I was excited to see this, because Vancouver has been a blackhole on the adult theatre map since the demise of the two dedicated theatres on Main Street over 15 years ago. 

But I can’t recommend this theatre in Fantasy Factory. It is a small room, maybe 30x30 ft with a low ceiling. There are four screens, showing straight, trans, lesbian, and gay porn. The room is semi-divided with floor-to-ceiling panels cut with glory holes, and there are 8-10 plastic chairs scattered around. I took a quick look and was not turned on by the scene, so left quickly.

Erotik-Supermarkt, Allerheiligenstraße 38, Frankfurt, Germany
https://www.erotik-supermarkt.de
I had a series of meetings in Frankfurt last month, and was pleased to discover this gem in Germany’s hub of commerce. The facilities are housed in a nondescript sex shop, and include at least four separate rooms (each with screens showing good-quality straight porn, and comfortable couch seating) and a theatre room with a dozen comfortable padded theatre seats and several couches along sides and back). I was only able to check it out for the two hours before closing on a Sunday night. 

There were a number of men there but sadly only one couple. They spent some time in one of the larger rooms but within 20 minutes moved to a private room with a bed that can be rented for a small extra fee. This private room (along with one other free room with a lockable door) has viewing panels built into the wall that can be slid open or closed. This is really an incredible place to spend an evening, especially for the low price of 15 euros admission. I wish there were more places with this level of quality and comfort in the US. Next time I’m in Frankfurt for business, I’ll make sure to plan for a Friday and Saturday night stay to check this place out again.

Doc here again...Many thanks to Power Law for an outstanding first-time report here at The Journal!  Please keep the reports coming in, sir!

Cinema L' Amour is legendary, and Erotik-Supermrkt sounds like the kind of market I'd shop at frequently.  Unfortunately, Vancouver's scene has been rough for the last few years.

Thanks,
-Doc
