Ask The Pornographer - 2016 Edition

[Soilwork]

When I read that shit about you..I hardly even know you but the little I know..you're upfront and honest so it is obvious they were making it all up...to me anyway....

So...does it ever make you laugh?

Jake Cruise and I used to sit around reading the comments about us on different sites and laugh our heads off. When people feel such a strong emotion about what is essentially a fictional character on a porn site... it's like watching people debate whether Batman could beat Superman in a fight.

How can you NOT laugh at that?

YEs... they were making that ALL up. And when one person makes something up... the next one takes it and runs with it and adds their own new made-up part. It's hysterical to watch. can you imagine being that much of a loser at the game of life?

 

[Soilwork]

Why the hell do people hate you? You've been nothing but nice to me and pretty much everyone else here.

Oh who knows... I have a pretty... "big" personality and I do piss people off without meaning to, sometimes. Meh... you can't make an omelet without hitting someone over the head with a frying pan.

Hi Jasun

Don't know why I've never read your thread before. You seem an interesting person, & a nice guy.

I have 2 questions about 2 porn guys

Whatever happened to Hayden Stephens/Seth Sweet. Retired? I found him so sexy.

I had seen where Dean Flynn had left Titan, & moved east. I saw where he did a scene for another studio, the name slips my mind. As a top, damn. Is Dean still in the business?

Some of these guys are around for years & then vanish into thin air (Rod Barry, one of my favorites, comes to mind. Rick Chase was another).

More years ago than I care to remember, I met & talked to the late J W King @ the old Gaiety Theatre in NYC. What a handsome devil, & a really nice guy to talk to.

Keep up the good work,

I worked with him years ago but I haven't heard from him in at least 5 years and probably closer to 6.

He lived in New York, anyway, I think. But yeah he did one scene for Hot House and that was it. He's busy with his new life and not really into coming back. No regrets, just new goals.

Some of these guys are around for years & then vanish into thin air (Rod Barry, one of my favorites, comes to mind. Rick Chase was another).

Yeah when someone drops out of porn they fall right off the grid.

Keep up the good work

thanks very much. It's a lot of fun but not easy work.

I don't remember if it was this thread or another thread recently...or even it was on this board... but someone was asking about gay perfomers in straight films and suggesting they don't exist....

Well...one of the only guys who could make me shoot and cum hard every time was Dennis Parker...OMG.....but the thing was..he did mostly straight porn...but was gay. Way before cable and the internet all you got was maybe 10 channels and the only time I had between college and work was mid afternoon..and Edge of Night was on...and Dennis was an actor on that show....he was so sexy and definitely my type......so when I found out he was in porn...I got a copy and my best maturbation..ever....

So I wonder...I really liked his vibe so do you know any gay actors that do straight porn?

Funny you should ask that.


a few days ago some shut-in started saying I was "a homophobic Republican" who wanted to "cure gays" because I shot two "straight for pay" scenes.

One was Arpad Miklos and one was Steven Daigle. both scenes were the idea of the guys in question and I was just the hired gun. Jake didn't want to direct either scene and that meant it was my job. So... meh, I did it.

but that was 7 years ago and I still get hate mail about those from insane gay people who tell me that I was trying to "cure gay people by forcing them to have sex with women." No, really. They said that. Which is so stupid I'd expect it from someone who would create a whole "I hate JUB forum" so they could talk about how much they all hate us here.

Anyway... I have heard of a few guys who were gay but made straight porn. Meh... I've had some jobs I'm not proud of, too.

WOW...really? I can't imagine how anyone would come to that conclusion?

As I was looking up Parker...and I saw his pic again...I hurried to look at my pics of my lover and damn...VERY SIMILAR ..the pic was 28 years old.....I never really made the connection before....

...but the thing that eventually turned me on about him doing straight porn......

I admit I love Dennis's body and his sexual energy is off the charts for me which is why I watched...and I just blocked out the girls though they didn't bother me really...I just had no interest in them....but eventually I started getting off knowing he was thinking of a guy when he was fucking them...and I got really turned on by that....

I am gonna check out those two guys you mentioned to see if it still holds true. One thing I know...it will turn me on just knowing they are gay and thinking of a guy....strange..eh?

Arpad watched gay porn for the whole
Scene to stay hard and Steven needed his boyfriend to blow him and kiss him so he could cum. So... Hardly made anyone Straight.

Am I the only gay guy who doesn't like Madonna? Both as a musician and a person.

God, no.

I actually do like some of Madonna's music but dislike a lot more of it. Her last three albums have all been garbage, I think. And she as a person is, from what I can gather, not a particularly nice person.

I usually dislike Madonna fans a lot more than she or her music, honestly.

I am going to get in trouble. LOL LOL But this thread which I thought held so much high expectations has for reasons I cannot put my finger on disappointed me. I do not know why. I am sure many others will disagree but I really needed to make this comment. Not disrespect intended.

It's interesting that you voiced an opinion paulmodibe that I no longer share. When I look back on Jasun's replies here, and on other threads, I realized that he's the real deal - not saying what he thinks I want to hear.

Jasun has made me realize that I was wrong to project onto the men who make porn all my inner doubts and insecurities.

And just today I was being an ass cuz I was acting like a big baby over something stupid. Then I come here and spend time with friends like you and eastofeden and Jasun; now I'm human again, lol.

I say I want friends and now I think I've found them, including you.

No No No My remarks WERE NOT in response to any individual or group of individuals my remarks were ONLY directed at the thread itself this year and last year. Please understand that, please.

My remarks were in part for me to try and understand why I felt the way I do. I have worked in Hollywood since the early 1970's and have shot 100's of movie and TV set promo photos. I have shot nudes professional and worked in the 60's and 70's gay XXX film industry in Southern California and I felt the questions and or answers do or did not reveal the realities of the industry I know and experienced. I had the opportunities to work with Andy Warhol, Joe Dalessandro, with John Holmes, both straight and limited gay films, Jon King, J.D. King, Tim Kramer, etc. and it was a wilder experience that reflected in this thread.

Again please nothing was in response to your remarks at all. But thanks for your concerns.

 

[EddMarkStarr]

I'm interested in your take as an insider, especially as the industry is changing with the rise of amateur content. Like other guys here at JUB I can name men who had problems with porn.
For example, Chris Cameron/Kris Knight.

One minute Chris was everywhere and now he's gone.

Any comments or insights about the people you know and/or worked with would be much appreciated.

well then... ask a question.

Here's the thing.

I'm very boring. I know that. But I also know that people like to know about porn, especially here. I used to get LOTS of private messages asking me the same questions, which is why I originally made the first version of this thread. that was about 9 years ago.

so ask away.

you can ask anything... although questions about my private life usually have a very dull answer. I'm a 50-ish gay man who's been out since his late teens in the late 80s and has been with his husband since 1992 when I was 23. My life is working all day, occasionally working out (not nearly enough) and then my husband comes home and makes dinner and we and our boys hang out watching TV or reading books and we go to bed. Weekends just don't have the work part and have hiking in the mountains and laying around on the beach... we're boring.

But this thread is about making porn. which..... sorry.... isn't nearly as exciting or scandalous as some people might have you think.

 

[Soilwork]

Jasun has made me realize that I was wrong to project onto the men who make porn all my inner doubts and insecurities.

we've all done that. I know I have. Back when I was working a soul-killing corporate job.

And just today I was being an ass cuz I was acting like a big baby over something stupid. Then I come here and spend time with friends like you and eastofeden and Jasun; now I'm human again, lol.

I say I want friends and now I think I've found them, including you.

I find myself OFTEN being an ass.

My biggest mistake is being an ass in public while telling you my real name.

Yeah, I was a jerk years ago.... here on JUB.... and my mistake was telling you who I am. I could easily make things easy by using a fake name but that's not me. I own my own mistakes. Hands up everyone who'll go on the Internet and own the stupid shit they might have said 9 years ago...

Meh... I win.

 

[Soilwork]

That's because porn was different in the 60s and 70s.

this is the 21st century. We have billing companies, internet privacy, internet PIRACY and corporate interests to deal with. We're no longer dealing with a guy shooting naked coke whores with an 8mm camera in their house. I and my crew are ALL well-experienced mainstream film makers who make porn because it's just another gig. I love porn, I love what I do but I also make mainstream video... if you watched the Super Bowl, I colour-corrected a commercial you saw today and it took me a day and covered my mortgage payment for a month (and I live in Silverlake, my house wan't cheap).

i know people who knew Andy Warhol and the closest version of him these days in Chris Crocker.... he has his finger on how to create disposable art that's shocking but not "great art." In Andy's day... saying a print of a soup can made you famous and rich. Now a video where you pretend to cry about Britney Spears just makes you famous and you then monetize that fame into endorsement deals.

But Andy Warhol was no more talented an artist than Chris Crocker... he was just .... first.

 

[EddMarkStarr]

One of my favorite fantasies is seeing what happens to straight men in porn as they age. No matter how often I hear that men and women are equal in every way, I know that as hot men age, they stay hot. And that's when the young guys move in to score.

Yeah, I know they'll still be str8 but older guys do succumb to the admiration of younger men.

 

[paulmodibe]

Frame 98- No disrespect was intended, Soilwork. My main point was that the technology along does not in itself change the nature of the subject matter and the working environment. On set relationships should basically be the same regardless of the time period or equipment used. I believe that today's professional porn is too clinical lacking the natural texture and sexual tension of real sex. It is all to programmed and scripted. The bodies generally all look the same unless you view a face, and cock also have a sameness about them. Older Falcon and Brentwood films are a perfect example was the complete difference of texture and tension. As a result I have not purchased a porn film, gay or straight in over 15 years. And I have a collection of over 1,000 films from the period before 1990. I am really sorry if any of my remarks here offends anyone but some major elements are missing from modern day porn, gay and straight.
