But if there is a genre which fulfills everything you speak of and more, it's the japanese erotic Visual Novel. I never thought I'd ever treat any form of porn with reverence until http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fate/stay_night
I wonder if it's a lesson in this. If people can make so successfully animated movies, why so few live ones? Is there an inherent limit? I'd venture to say we're very turned off by any form of pretense in sex. The most successful forms of live porn seem to be either pure amateur, or porn actresses who are basically acting as themselves. If that's the cause, no amount of money or skill will fix it...
I edited the original comment to note that hentai manga (not so much video, though, for some very odd reason) is often of high plot quality, I would guess because in manga the scriptwriter often also is the one who draws it, and when you're putting in all that work to draw something line by line, you won't be able to avoid wanting to make it beautiful and wanting to add plot.
Then I noticed that people were no longer voting up the comment, and edited back out - I would guess that mentioning manga made it seem lower-prestige.
But (he quibbled) I'm not sure I'd classify F/SN as erotica in the first place, even if it's technically in the erogame genre; it's a novel with some sex scenes.
