Investigative reporter and talk show host, Marty Griffen spoke with Joone for over 30 minutes as they fielded calls from students, consumers and parents about the controversial showings, which were funded by student activity fees. Although he admits he's not a porn guru, Griffen says, "I was shocked by the interest. People are split, it's men vs. women and it's especially the older women who are upset by this type of film. 'Pirates' is the best shot movie in that genre that I've ever seen. It's definitely different. He [Joone] is very intelligent. He handled all the calls, even from the conservatives and he did a great job."
Newsweek magazine touts 'Pirates' as 'a sprawling epic' in their November 28th issue; LA Weekly names "Pirates" their Video Pick of the Week in their December 2nd issue and AVN's Editor in Chief, Mike Ramone acknowledges that "Pirates" has become 'a cultural phenomenon.' "Pirates" received a record 24 nominations for AVN's 2006 award show, more nods than any other single title has received, throughout the history of adult entertainment.
