Matthew, I for one am glad Zeb chose you and I love you as a performer. No old news to me. I understand why you are angry. If the deal was you being the first then it should have been you. I respect you a lot more than most performers. I am sure a ton of other porn viewers are thrilled this is happening.

Matthew came here to state his anger over feeling betrayed. If you had been promised something that was to be big and historic in the sense that Zeb was doing his first hardcore video and it turned around on you then you'd be pretty pissed too. .

Will, in this post by DF he seems to imply that the Jake Cruise thing was Zeb's idea and doing. --------------------------------

GOTO TOPIC (Posted 5/21/2008 12:24:00 PM to topic Zeb Atlas finally has sex with a dude on camera, in forum Favorite Videos / Pornstars)

Good Day ...

Let me "air" something with you folks. When I work with a star that has a "mission" ... I have to let him go through the entire process before making judgments or rushing to criticize. ZEB ATLAS has always seemed to have the "right idea" about his career, reputation, image, priorities, timing, etc. I gotta think that ZEB is the absolute KING of the male erotic stars of today. AND ... he seems to be quite focused. He knows that he's at the TOP ... and ... that he's going to get even BIGGER. His popularity, his "rates," his "stock," his entire "aura" ... is ONLY GOING UP.


ZEB beginning with JAKE CRUISE may seem "off the wall" … but … think about this "idea" that ZEB seems to have for keeping things REAL about his "road" into GAY SEX ON FILM. In many cases, through the years (some occasions with guys doing XXX films, often just guys doing "privates"), I've seen str8 guys go from letting a "client" suck them off … to … fucking the client … to sucking the client to having a hot boy "JOIN" he and the client … having great sex with the boy … even while the client participates … to having sex AWAY from this tricks … etc. (or sex "off set" with guys … when, normally, he was JUST "gay when paid").


SO … just think what ZEB seems to be doing here (I'm NOT going to say that he's got this all printed out … it just seems to be what's happening with his decisions). He teases you with this first little oral scene .. . doing it with a "client-type" but … before long … gives you much more ... maybe it's a very hot guy and he's really into it … doing more than just oral. ??? Seasoning comes in time. You gotta let artists (even 'porn stars' LOL) … have their space. 3 years ago he'd never have EVER considered doing Howard Stearn. That's why I've been a successful manager. You back up your star's business decisions … support his ideas … and help promote and publicize them so he makes maximum money and gets the greatest publicity. That's my job. I did NOT book the Cruise scene. BUT, I'll surely promote it and support it. I have, however, been invovled in another XXX gay project for ZEB that should make all this chatter a very silly thing. Patience my boys & girls. Patience.


I'm not going to discuss ANY particulars. Until things are "in the can" ... I've learned not to say shit. BUT … I can guarantee you this. ZEB ATLAS will NOT fuck things up. He also has ALL the right "folks" who he deals with … in business AND social. The Cruise scene might end up being the perfect "launching pad" for his "gay adult film sex." Don't worry about it … it's just a "practice game." The "season" hasn't even opened. All PROS have to do a little "practicing."


Enjoy ZEB ATLAS and JAKE CRUISE, beginning May 30, at JakeCruise.com. AND .. we'll be crossing our fingers that ZEB continues his "gay sex journey."


HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY!

of course, the first question is 'matt rush xxx' the same as 'MATT RUSH XXX'. Is this really Matt Rush or an imposter.

Remember this is the internet, and who you say you are may not be who you really are. Try a search to find out.

I tried one, and wondered at the difference from 2007 to now in the caps.

Sierra4 - I think ATKOL has safeguards against imposters, don't they?

Yes, Atkol does have some protections. I'm not always sure how closely then monitor the boards anymore. I know on another board, some one has used '0' (zero) in place of 'O' (o as is oscar). It's just that the change in caps confuses me. Now in the reply above mine, it's now 'Matt Rush xxx' while earlier it is 'matt rush xxx'==not sure i'm not reading too much into this.

I tried posting this without using a cap, so I guess Atkol is case insensitive.

Any way, back to our developing discussion. Though I do wonder about someone returning after a long absence, from this or another board, where he used to post frequently.

Additional: Falcon has released photos from the first scene--from the video, Best Man. So I guess they are trying to get the interest and publicity from Jake Cruise. See the sword.com or gaypornblog.com

Thanks Matt for addressing this matter. I really fear that Zeb may somehow back out of doing the anal sex scene with Matt. They should have filmed it at the same time they did the anal. Not smart on Falcon's part. They need better business acumen at Falcon.

" Zeb requested that certain things be done prior to the scene that no other model had to do except for me, so yes, Falcon did in a sense "bend over backward" to make sure he was happy."

Now everyone on here should be able to figure that one out. By the way, that something Matt had to do that others don't have to SHOULD always be done as a matter of practice in all of male porn.

Matt,

I don't argue that you can't post. It's just that I've been around when he who can't be named was in his prime, and also for the ongoing saga of waverunner, who was found to be false. There are enough posters with various names to confuse us all. And he who can't be named is back in business again.
