An Interview with Dr. Dick
GoldiesGayGalaxy.com
August 11, 2006
Today I am going to take a break from my normal Friday Gay Porn Review to provide you with something even better. I had the recent pleasure of interviewing Dr. Dick, aka Dr. Richard Wagner of Daddy Oohhh Productions. So sit back with a cup of coffee in one hand and your cock in the other and learn more about this fascinating man, his most unbelievable past, and his current role in the gay adult scene.
Goldie: Tell me about your background. What were you doing before porn?
Dr. Dick: I came to this work in a most unorthodox fashion. It is certainly not something I ever aspired to
do. I was a Catholic priest for 20 years. (I am the only Catholic priest in the world with a doctorate in Clinical Sexology.) I completed my post-graduate work with the publication of my doctoral thesis concerning the sexual attitudes and behaviors of gay Catholic priests in the active ministry in 1981. This was unprecedented research back then (and even now, for that matter). There was a firestorm of international publicity. I was son to be known as “The Gay Priest”. Like if I was the only one. Needless to say, this notoriety (some say infamy) effectively ended my priesthood. I fought the Vatican for the next 15 years, from 1981-1996, in an attempt to salvage my ministry, but the deed was done.
My career as a therapist in San Francisco coincided with the advent of HIV/AIDS (1981). Not surprisingly, my practice evolved into working primarily with sick and dying people. In the mid-90′s I founded a nonprofit organization, PARADIGM, Enhancing Life Near Death. It was an outreach for terminally ill, chronically ill, elder and dying people. This was brilliant cutting-edge work. Alas, I couldn’t find the funding to continue. This precipitated a rather sudden move to Seattle in 1999.
G: How did you make the transition into the adult market? What attracted you to this job?
DD: I continued to work with sick and dying people here, in Seattle. I started to develop programming for women newly diagnosed with ovarian cancer and men with prostate cancer. I wanted to create videos for people experiencing life threatening and/or disfiguring illnesses to help them deal with reintegrating sex and intimacy post diagnosis. I soon realized that I would need to fund this project on my own. No mainline foundation would touch the issue of sex. Faced with how I might do that, friends prevailed on me to start by making porn. Thus Daddy Oohhh! Productions was born.
What attracted me? The lure of loads of money to fund my great passion attracted me. Unfortunately, the load of money has yet to materialize. Now that I’m actually doing porn, my interest is to create projects that are different in style and tone from what currently rules the marketplace.
G: What is your role within Daddy Oohhh! Productions?
DD: President/CEO: that and a dollar gets me a ride on the bus.
G: What has been your most memorable experience working in the porn industry?
DD: I’ve met and worked with some marvelously creative people, both in front of and behind the camera. These extraordinary people have helped me make my mark. Without them, there would be no Daddy Oohhh.
G: What makes the content from Daddy Oohhh! Productions unique?
DD: Are you familiar with those innocent, unassuming, joyful, playful, classic films of the early days of porn? The days when the sex was earnest and wild and hot and yet oh so sweet. When the production took a back seat to honest to goodness, unabashed passion. The time before all the polish and gloss; before the cult of hyper-masculinity. Before all the posturing and self-absorption. Before the body stereotyping and humorless, deadpan sex. The days before the cookie cutter, assembly line productions that currently rule the marketplace. I remember those days. I was there! I’m delighted to present my homage to that genuine, albeit brief, time when we celebrated our sexuality with wild abandon and carried on without pretense.
Daddy Oohhh! Productions labors to capture some of the spirit and pathos of that golden era. If you sense that something has gone missing from adult entertainment lately – the romance, allure and seduction – why not check out our stuff. It might just help restore your faith in good old-fashioned smut.
G: Do you have a favorite movie you’ve shot and if so what makes it so special?
DD: Each of out movies has a certain charm. Of course, I’d say that, they’re mine!
No, really, some titles have better production values then others. Some have better performances than others. That being said, if I were to direct someone who wanted to get an idea of the Daddy Oohhh! signature, I’d suggest they check out our most recent title: After Hours and an older title, Willie Gets A Brand New Thing.
G: Are you in a relationship or still looking for Mr. (or Mrs.) Right?
DD: Nope! Single as all-get-out! Isn’t that pathetic? All this fine stuff goin’ to waste.
G: What types of guys do find sexy?
DD: I’m into trim and fit men. Those who enjoy lots of sensual body contact, massage, wrestling, etc. He’s gotta love kissing. I like my sex to be mutual and reciprocal.
G: Boxers, briefs, or boxer/briefs? Or none of the above?
DD: Boxer-briefs
G: What do you have planned for the future?
DD: I hope to make it to dinnertime before I collapse from exhaustion.
G: Thank you for your time, it was great getting to know you better!

Interview, Jeff Baron, Daddy Oohhh! Feature
AGuySite.com
February 5, 2003
questions and intro for jeff baron
when i interviewed richard wagner of daddy oohhh! productions, i was very intrigued by one of the actors for the title ‘country time, country fine’. jeff baron was the man who i watched with both a woody and a desire to find out what the man is like off camera. with a few more films under his belt now, ‘x-pressed desires’ and ‘willie gets a brand new thing’, mr. baron seems to be pulling back from the buisness. is life giving him another road to take. or is he looking to journey deeper into the industry. the interview you are about to read was done just before the filming of ‘willie’, so the answers reflect his experiences during this time in his life. much respect to the men of the buisness who take their clothes off for the lens. and i bow to your techniques and presence on film.
Hi there Nate, it is **** here a.k.a Jeff Baron. Thank you for the email and am SO flattered that you like my performances for Daddyoohhh. Here are the answers to the interview questions you asked. I checked out the website and think it is great!
1. What led you to become an adult porn star?
I met a guy in Whistler last year who is a pornstar. We were getting together in Seattle for the weekend,
and at that time he was shooting a video for Daddyoohhh. One of the cast was unable to make it and they needed a replacement, so my friend asked me if i would be interested in filling in and i thought…. what the hell, give it a shot!
2. What goes through your mind when that camera started rolling for your first scene of your first feature?
The words ” holy shit, i can’t believe i am doing this” crossed my mind every 30 seconds after the camera’s started rolling, and then i just tried to tune out all the lights and cameras and pretend we were alone.
3. What would you say to a fan that may recognize you in public?
I would say…. It was not me, it was my identical twin bro who is the pornstar. I am the shy one out of the both of us…….lol
4. What’s your best feature on your body?
I don’t know. I would have to say maybe my ass is my best feature.
5. What’s your best technique when you’re intimate with a guy?
I give a wicked blow job!!!….lol
6. I personally enjoyed ‘country time, country fine’. you give a fully erect-stand out performance in that film. My question to you is what was your overall favorite experience during the filming process?
My favorite part about the filming process, especially for Country Time, country Fine, was the people. They were so wonderful and totally put my mind at ease through the whole shoot.Both the producers and the cast.
7. Are you currenlty in a relationship? If so, how does your new adult film career affect that relationship? If you’re single, how would you approach a relationship while filming adult films?
I am currently single, but am very much in love with someone. We had a short, intense, beautiful relationship.He was alright with the fact i made some movies.I would always put my relationship first, and if he was uncool with the whole video thing, i would give it up in a second for him.
8. What advice would you give to that average joe who is giving thought of starring in adult films?
I would say, if you want to do it, go for it because life is too short to let opportunities go by.I would rather do something and figure out it is not for me than to go through life saying, i should have tried it when i had the chance.
9. How did your first sexual encounter happen?
I was the neighborhood slut at the age of 6……lol i used to manipulate all my little friends into pulling out their dicks for me to play with.
10. Humorous question. Would you give your adult feature films as gifts to your gay and/or straight friends?
I would not give any of my gay or straight friends my videos as gifts because the are too expensive…..lol I am a starving student here…..lol and besides, all my gay friends have had me in person, so they don’t need to see me on film ( just kidding
)
11. Where do you see yourself five years from now?
I try not to look to far ahead, and just live day by day because you never know how life can change in the
blink of an eye.
12. What’s your workout routine like? Do you diet? or just eat whatever ya like?
I workout 5 days a week for about an hour. I am the worst with my diet because I am so busy and grab way too much fast food. I am blessed with a super fast metabolism.
13. What does a porn star like you do between filming features?
I have only made a couple movies so i don’t know how to answer this question.
14. Ever think about getting behind a camera for an adult feature?
No, i think being in front of the lense is a hell of alot more fun!!…..lol
15. Think back to your teenage horny past. When did you first notice you happen to enjoy guys?
See question 9
16. For new fans such as myself, What can we expect from you in future adult features?
You will probably see me more relaxed in future films, and possibly trying some different stuff like leather scenes etc.
17. Do you stay in touch with your adult co-stars after filming is over? Maybe go out to dinner with them, Have threesomes- maybe orgies, I don’t know, have a bar-b-que?
As of yet i have not kept in touch with any of the boys i have shot films with. I have spent most of the last 8 months focussing on a relationship.
18. Can we expect a personal website from you in the near future?
I have not thought about the whole website thing, but it is a definite possibility.
19. A gay fun question. Does your penis have a nickname? if not, what would you call it, you know if you really had to call it something.
my dick does not have a nickname yet. I am waiting for the right man to come along and name it for me!!…..lol
20. Final question. Pretty deep and meaningful one. From your personal experiences. What is the best thing about gay life? What’s the worst?
The best thing about gay life is the same as life in general.We have freedom and the right to express ourselves however we choose. The best part about gay life for me is being in love and sharing my life with someone incredible.The worst part is that i will probably never have children.
Thanks alot Nate for the oppurtunity to answer these questions for your website and for your kind words regarding my work in the adult film industry. Take care.
Interview, Richard Wagner, CEO of Daddy Oohhh!
AGuySite.com
February 1, 2003
first off, all i ask for first is a quick bio. your name, age, where you and your buisness reside. any favorite anything?
Richard Wagner – 53 – Seattle, WA i love the beautiful pacific northwest.
1. Daddy Oohhh Productions. It’s a great name. I’m curious what the meaning is behind the name.
it is kinda fun, isn’t it? it doesn’t have a whole lot of meaning, just a fun, playful ’50s sorta thing.
2. Tell me in your own words how your business started off in its first few months. Was it difficult getting the company off the ground?
it sure was difficult getting it off the ground. hell, it still is a huge challenge.
this industry has a very unsavory reputation for the most part. and it’s a reputation that is richly deserved, in my estimation, lots of bottom feeders.
I’m often frustrated in my search for quality, like-minded collaborators. so many folks are in this for a fast buck. there is a lot of exploitation, not to mention the body stereotyping and humorless, deadpan sex in the cookie cutter, assembly line productions that currently rule the marketplace.
the projects we do celebrate sexuality, not denigrate it. our movies are more romantic alluring and seductive than most. We attempt to feature the whole person, not just bumping parts. however, these values are not necessarily embraced by the industry as a whole. thus, marketing our products can be formidable.
and, of course, cash flow is always a pressing issue for a small boutique production house like ours.
3. What advice would you give to a newbie out there looking to start their own adult company?
enter a convent instead!
just kidding. I’d suggest the budding pornographer find something that will make his/her product distinctive, something that will give him/her joy. I’d also suggest that he/she do quality work, that he/she treat people well, have sufficient financial backing. finally, try not to take it all too seriously, it’s just sex, after all.
4. Your first film was ‘BodyRocks’. Tell me how that whole process went? The casting? The good moments? The worst moments?
i didn’t have a clue about anything that first time around. i learn best by just going out and doing something. so, the whole adventure was pretty much a trial by fire.
i placed a casting call ad in one of the local alternative newspapers. did a slew of auditions. (like my daddy always said, “you have to walk through a lot of manure before you find the pony.”) wrote a “script”. (and i use that word very loosely.) chose a cast of nine. (a very ambitious number.) got a couple of people to help me operate cameras and adjust lights. (which we did poorly). and we did it all in one day. (sheesh!)
I don’t recommend this as a template for success, although BodyRocks is still our best selling title.
the worst thing…the production values weren’t particularly high.
the best thing…i discovered Nick Stone (the BodyRocks cover model). he’s the quintessential daddy oohhh star. he embodies everything i’m trying to do. He’s been part of every production but one and he’s a sweetheart dollbaby on top of that.
5. Your company appears to have first started off as a gay adult entertainment company, but you are about to open the doors to another side of Daddy Oohhh! Productions. What can we expect from you within in the year?
a complete mental breakdown! no, just kidding.
besides the entertainment portion of our mission we will also be doing sex education. we are preparing projects that will help people face and explore their sexuality after a life-threatening or disfiguring illnesses such as ovarian cancer, breast cancer and prostate cancer.
the enrichment portion of our mission is to create helpful as well as witty and humorous “how to videos” for those who want to expand their sexual repertoire (anal sex, oral sex, SM, BD, etc).
6. Are you currently in a relationship? or does one have time for a relationship or dating with a business like yours?
no, I’m not currently in a relationship. unless you count my housemate, ginger, a 3 year old german shorthair pointer. she’s completely kooky nutty, just ask anyone who has met her.
ya know how some guys are looking for a sugar daddy? i’m looking for a sugar SON. someone who will work really, really hard to keep me in the style of life that i wish to become accustomed. someone who will indulge me as I go about this quixotic adventure.
Do you know anyone who fits the bill, nate?
7. What exactly are you looking for when it comes to casting for a future feature of a Daddy Oohhh! film?
i look for normal looking people; in shape, charismatic and photogenic, to be sure, but normal. The kind of men you’d be likely to meet at a local coffee shop. gay and bi men of color and diverse cultural backgrounds are of particular interest to us.
i believe in integrating our films with a range of age groups, body types and ethnic origins while staying true to our overriding concern – finding performers who are sex positive and enjoy themselves in front of a camera.
8. Now as you know my favorite film so far is ‘CountryTime, Country Fine. My question is, what was the inspiration behind this film? Any behind the scenes moments that you remember most?
boy, i could tell you stories that would make your hair stand on end, don’t ‘cha know.
it all started with the house we filmed in, a charming 19-teen’s country cottage in the burbs. then someone had the Seattle Monopoly board game, then we had the cast (and a delicious cast it was, too). Then I threw them all together and let the actors do what comes naturally. It was amazing, there was so much passion on the set that day and it really shows, don’t you think? i always include a bunch of behind the scenes shots on each DVD we release. i get to choose them myself, so if you want to know the intimate details of the CountryTime shoot, that’s the place to look.
9. Do you plan on taking the brand name Daddy Oohhh! to new ventures beyond adult films? Maybe a gay bar/club? Traveling ‘how to’ gay seminars? I don’t know…maybe an adult acting school?
i’ve been working in the sex field for over 20 years, predominately as a therapist. I’ve been involved in all sorts of sex education and sexual enrichment projects, so I suppose there will be lots of new ventures in the future.
funny you should mention the adult acting school thing. i’ve been asked by a local organization to put together a class titled, Being In Porn – 101. I liked the idea, so I’m putting some energy behind it. i’d like it to be a class not just for actors, but for those who aspire to crew a porn shoot.
and then there’s also my on-line sex advice column, Ask Dr. Dick.
10. Is your family and friends affected by this choice of career? Does your family even know?
i’m pretty rebellious and unorthodox by nature. for example, i was a catholic priest for 20 years. really! Scary, huh?
I published my doctoral thesis, a study of the sexual attitudes and behaviors of gay catholic priest in the active ministry back in 1981. This was long before the church could acknowledge that there was even such a thing as a gay priest.
this ground-breaking research caused a international furor. It probably didn’t help matters any when i publicly “came out” as a gay priest myself at the same time. the shit really hit the fan. i was punished severely, silenced, deprived of all financial support and ostracized by the church. they finally “removed me from active ministry” (though they did not defrocked me) in 1995. Yes, I still have my frock, and it’s quite a lovely frock, too. Would you like to see it? ; – )
as you can imagine family and friends have had to adjust to my uniqueness along time ago. they’ve come to expect the extraordinary from me and I rarely disappoint them. they are either cool with my unconventional life path or they take their leave of me.
11. A curious question. I’ve read about ‘gay for pay’ adult actors who star in gay porn, yet they go home to their girlfriends or wives? Would you ever cast a person who considers themselves ‘gay for pay’ and what are your thoughts on that aspect of the gay adult industry?
this kind of person wouldn’t do well in one of our productions. ya can’t fake chemistry. and no amount of pay is gonna get an ostensibly straight man to love another man like a gay man does.
Gets me back to the primary purpose of our productions, the romance, allure and seduction, not just bumping parts.
12. Do you ever see yourself walking away from Daddy Oohhh! productions?
oh sure, i picture myself walking away from it all two or three times every day.
13. With as many gay films that are out on the market, does it become difficult coming up with something totally fresh and new that stands out among the pack?
i think the notion of fresh and new resides in the presentation, not the story itself. sexual scenarios, by their very nature are trite. I mean, simply stated, there are a limited amount of things one can do with a finite number of appendages and orifices, right?
what makes a sexual event brilliant, on camera or off, is the passion between the participants. i think it would be possible to present the same story over and over, but with different players and from different perspectives and have the story fresh, new and exciting each and every time.
14. Now comes a funny question. How many erections can one director get from filming an entire adult feature?
that is a funny question. sometimes i’m lucky to get just one from each performer. Erections are sometimes hard to come by, even for the industry veteran. There’s a whole lot of stress present when there are cameras and crew just standing around waiting for the action to begin.
This is really hard work (no pun intended). I so admire the men I’ve worked with. They’ve been real troopers.
15. You have also created jizz4u.com. What was the motivation in creating another site apart from Daddy Oohhh! Productions? What is this site going to offer us no other site has?
http://www.daddyoohhh.com/ is our professional site. You’ll not find any overt depictions of sex there.
http://www.jizz4u.com, on the other hand, is a membership, on line magazine sorta deal with special features and columns and, of course, lots of really swell original content. we like to think of it as Smut For the Thinking Man.
there’s an online community developing. One can create a profile, upload photos (Hey, just show us your dick!) you got spooge pics? we’re especially gonna want to see those.
members receive a $5.00 discount on all the DVDs in our online store. There are monthly give aways, tee shirts and DVDs, that sort of thing.
And that’s just the beginning. JIZZ4U.COM will update its content monthly. And we have lots more surprises in store in months to come.
We’ll be adding new galleries featuring upcoming video stars. next month we’ll be featuring a new Spanish language column.
how’s that for shameless self-promotion?
16. A childhood question. When you were a young boy, was porn director ever in the mix of ‘what i want to be when i grow up’?
not even close. i wanted to be a priest. Had someone asked me three years ago if i could imagine myself a porn producer, I would have said, absolutely not.
Well, so much for that.
17. When shooting for your next feature begins, what preparation do you take days before the camera even starts to roll?
we shoot again in mid-march. we have an amazing cast of 9 coming in from all over the us and canada.
producing a marathon weekend shoot like the one we’re planning is an enormous undertaking. i start getting things organized two months before the actual shoot date. every little detail needs attention – transportation, food, lodging, cast, crew and location, these are some of the immediate concerns that consume me.
just three more questions. almost done.
18. On your website, you tell us to expect ‘helpful, witty and humorous “how to videos” for those wanting to expand their sexual repertoire (anal sex, oral sex, SM, BD, etc)’. When are we going to see this video on the market? And can you give us one tidbit on what the first how to video will ‘explain’ to us gay folks?
we’re planning on filming my sex advice columns. i hope that comes to pass real soon. but, of course, money is always a huge issue. i just know they’re gonna be a hoot, though. i mean, just consider some of the titles.
So Ya Wanna Be A World-Class Cocksucker
Liberating The B.O.B. (big old bottom) Within
Guess What, Honey? I’m A Kinky Old Sod!
19. Your company is given the title ‘independent’ in articles. Is your company still considered a newbie on the block or is it making noticable waves among the other adult companies and their stars?
Thanks to interviews like this we are beginning to find our proper place in the industry. There’s no denying that we’re doing things quite differently from the rest of the stuff in the marketplace.
Will we continue to grow and perhaps even prosper? Ahhh, the jury is still out on that. However, I am very confident we will succeed
20. What’s the most positive feedback you’ve gotten from one of your customers? What’s the most negative?
Positive feedback: I’d like to compliment you on your great work. There is a certain feel I get from the videos (can’t explain it) that I don’t experience from others. The actors really seem to be genuinely into each other and enjoy what they are doing. I was always a Brett Collins fan, but to see him with Jeff Baron–WOW! Keep up the great work!
negative feedback: Sensual, but senseless. Visual mood-music. The photography is gorgeous, the editing mesmerizing, the original music ravishing, the guys hot, but the whole is loony.
21. One last fun question. I must know. What would your porn star name be if you was to become an adult star?
Willie Choke
Thanks Nate, you’re a hell of a guy!

Yes, Father
By Steve Wiecking
Richard Wagner was ordained a Catholic priest in 1975 in the Bay Area, and he still has the air about him of someone made for dealing with intimate confessions. He’s a burly, bald-headed guy in his 50s with a warm, wide face, a watermelon-slice smile, and the tendency to end statements with a winking, rhetorical “doncha know?” He talks about the gay porno films he’s directing like he’s just stumbled upon a nifty project for the school science fair that could save the planet—and you believe him.
At the moment he’s busy trying to explain the considerable change in his life’s direction while curtailing the inquisitive nose of his indefatigable, pink-shirted German shorthaired pointer.
“To this day, I’m the only Catholic priest in the world with . . . Ginger!” he breaks off to chastise the dog, who’s just discovered something new about my female companion. Wagner apologizes with a twinkle. “She doesn’t get to see many women here,” he says.
Wagner, the president of Seattle’s Daddy Oohhh! Productions for Quality Adult Entertainment, Education, and Enrichment (www.daddyoohhh.com), is, as he started to say, the sole man of the pulpit with a Ph.D. in clinical sexology. His fascination with the vagaries of human sexuality led him to complete the dissertation Gay Catholic Priests: A Study of Cognitive and Affective Dissonance, which effectively ended his service to God in 1981 (though it took the church a good 15 years to officially bar the uncooperative activist).
“Back then there was no such thing as a gay Catholic priest,” he says. “I finished [my doctorate] in January, and by February I was being thrown out of my religious community because I had publicly identified myself as gay.”
He got over the rejection, obviously, but it still genuinely disappoints him, and he trails off in wistful frustration when it comes up: “I had a teachable moment and a captive audience to do some really good stuff about sexuality and, I mean, just human . . . personhood. . . . “
He sees his move to Seattle and dive into homo porn as a means to fund his dream, the work he’s been driving at since the ’80s: frank video education that would help terminally ill or post-op patients to view themselves as sexually whole.
It sounds funny—the priest turned pornographer. It is funny, let’s face it. But Wagner’s devotion to letting it all hang out registers as disarmingly low-key instead of lurid; watching unedited scenes from his forthcoming gay flick, you can hear him behind the camera admonishing his uncertain players with, “You don’t have to worry about having a stiffie all the time!”
X-pressed Desires Review
X-pressed Desires
(Full review HERE)
Cast: Nick Stone, Jeff Baron, Rick Randy, P.J. Dixon, Ian Mathis, Julian Morino and Ricky Amman in major sex roles; Tom Spade, Trey Anubis and Evan Teed in minor sex roles and bonus footage.
Director: Miles Strayhorn
Writer: Cock Robin, based on a book by Gore Vittle.
Production date: ©2003
Length: 81 min.
Extras: An 8-min. bonus scene “in the raw,” 4 min. of behind-the-scenes footage and 18 min. of trailers (for all five of Daddy Oohhh!’s previously released titles).
Audio/visual quality: Much of the camerawork has a documentary feel, allowing the viewer to experience the maze of hallways and rooms right along with the performers. The setting is Basic Plumbing, a Seattle sex club sparsely furnished with oversized industrial and art objects. At odd moments, this dark and surreal environment reminds me of Wakefield Poole’s Bijou, a movie which I very much like. The lighting tends to be somewhat dim—the undersaturated colors almost approach sepia tones at times. This does fit the atmosphere very well, however, and it does not prevent the action from being seen. (If what I’ve heard is correct, Basic Plumbing is actually kept quite a bit darker during regular operating hours.) There are scattered issues with soft focus and camera jitters, but looks-wise, this is possibly the best Daddy Oohhh! production yet.
Rick Randy, one of the starring performers, has also done a bang-up job with his original instrumentals for this movie. The pieces are variable in mood, ranging from flowing techno to ambient jazz to emotive acoustic guitar. The balance between the sex sounds and music is consistently good. Some dialog is muddy and difficult to understand, but it’s relatively unimportant since spoken lines are few and far between.
First impression: X-pressed Desires is a wish fulfilled!
Scene highlights: Sexy men all over Seattle receive an enigmatic invitation to a Suppressed Desires Party, to be held this Saturday at 11:00 p.m.
No, I wouldn’t!
I mean, I couldn’t!
I know I shouldn’t!
but…
In the right situation,
At the right time,
With the right men?
You would, wouldn’t you?
You could, couldn’t you?
You should, shouldn’t you?
Oh yes, I definitely think you should, especially if you don’t mind letting YogaGrrl quietly watch…
“The Fireman”— P.J. Dixon, a massively muscled firefighter, leaves the locker room with a childlike air of anticipation. He peeks around corners and into private booths, and wherever he finds a man, he greets him with an inquisitive touch or an amiable kiss. P.J. eventually descends into a pit and discovers the sex swing which will unlock his secret wish. Leather cop Rick Randy arrives and engages P.J. in passionate kissing. P.J. positively feasts upon Rick’s pierced penis. Rick puts his tongue and fingers to work in P.J.’s snug posterior. The heat between them draws other men into the room. Flannel-clad Tom Spade hits the cocksuckin’ jackpot courtesy of P.J., Nick Stone and Ian Mathis. Rick and Nick both take turns at P.J.’s butt. The camera views are indirect, but P.J.’s radiant expression and deep-voiced moans are pretty convincing. Rick ejaculates onto P.J.’s hand and groin and then vigorously stimulates P.J.’s ass with a flesh colored probe (this footage is unambiguous). P.J. is a charming and enthusiastic bottom who not only gets hard from the toy play, but actually lets loose a little pop during the stimulation.
“The Janitor”—Fresh-faced Ian Mathis, the janitor and doorman at the club, stumbles across a straggler masturbating behind a partition. Julian Morino gives Ian a powerful, almost challenging look, and Ian responds with an amused, half-crooked grin. They stroke their attractive cocks for each other’s voyeuristic pleasure and soon get down to business pleasuring each other with their mouths. Ian and Julian display great eagerness in putting their tongues in all the places tongues should go.
They caress and…wait, surely it can’t be over already? Ian gives Julian tender good-bye kisses as he pulls on his jeans and then pads up the stairs to finish his work. Just his luck, he runs into Nick Stone, who’s as cute as a pagan can be in his kick ass fetish gear. Nick greets Ian warmly with a kiss. Wowsers, these guys are SEXY as they swap turns wrapping their lips around each other’s cock. Nick takes Ian’s all the way down his throat. They bury their noses in each others’ butt, too. I love Nick’s good-natured chuckles when Ian turns him around to face the wall.
They kiss and…wait, surely it can’t be over already? Ah no, they just needed to fetch Julian. The janitor’s suppressed desire is a threeway. I can understand that; I have a few of those fantasies myself. Nick, Julian and Ian are quite excited to fulfill each others’ needs. Ian gets to be the center of attention, though, pushing himself back purposefully onto Nick’s cock before letting Nick do him in three positions. Ian explodes onto Nick’s manly chest hair after Nick pumps from below in cowboy. Julian looks to be aiming at the same spot but cums so hard he overshoots. The best, however, is last—Nick unleashes five huge spurts and a couple smaller ones. He must have been saving up for days; otherwise, it’s true what they say about the salmon in Seattle. As with the first scene, this one ends with smiles and laughter.
“One Last Look Around”—Jeff Baron and Ricky Amman hook up not long before the club closes at 5:00 a.m. They hold hands as they feel their way through the dark corridors to the locker room. Ricky gazes hungrily at Jeff, and Jeff pulls Ricky into his arms. Jeff carefully uses his lips to retrieve Ricky’s hardening cock from the fly of his camouflage pants. At Jeff’s invitation, Ricky affectionately rubs Jeff’s close cropped hair during the blowjob. They peer into each other’s eyes with quiet intensity as they switch back and forth with the oral. Ricky heartily thrusts into Jeff in two doggy-style positions (which are unfortunately inexplicit, but which give us a great opportunity to admire Ricky’s toned and shapely ass).
They wrap up with a bit of romance, since Jeff’s hidden longing has been finding someone who cares enough to follow him home. Now completely nude, they confirm their desire as the morning light filters into Jeff’s bedroom. They quickly regain their erections, and there’s an especially nice shot of Ricky rolling Jeff’s behind into the air for deeper anilingus. The anal sex is unambiguous in this segment. “Fast or slow?” Ricky asks. “Fast and slow!” Jeff replies. They kiss their way to a strong orgasm from Jeff.
The behind-the-scenes featurette includes fun fluffing and assorted merriment from cast and crew alike. “The Priest” is the rough edit of a scene that had to be discarded. I’m guessing it was cut primarily due to camera focus problems and the performers falling out of character. The sex is probably worth watching at least once, though. It begins as a threeway with Evan Teed (the priest), Nick Stone and Trey Anubis. Ian Mathis and Tom Spade soon join in for an oral orgy. Ian, Trey and Nick all climax; Trey’s orgasm arrives forcefully with primal vocalizations and full body shudders.
Screenshots: At this writing, soft-core images from the set of X-pressed Desires are available at the Daddy Oohhh! website. For the most part, they accurately portray the look of the movie and its performers (except, alas, there is no peeing by P.J.).
Thumbs up: The men are hot. There’s not a dud in the bunch, plus there’s enough variety in the good looks and the good personalities to give this movie broad appeal. It’s difficult to believe that this is the first-ever production for so many of these guys. It’s the debut of P.J. Dixon (who has now gone on to work for Titan Media, as well), Ian Mathis, Julian Morino and Ricky Amman. It’s also the first partnered sex scene for Rick Randy, who’d done one solo scene before (and who’s also followed up with one for Titan). Personally, I could eat every one of these men up. As an added bonus, for those who like interracial action, Julian is Latin and Ricky A. is Middle Eastern.
The sex is way hot, too. I appreciate that the action is not overedited. The transitions between positions are often included, which I particularly enjoy. This movie lets me catch vicarious whiffs of what a gay sex club environment might be like (on an amazing, idealized night, anyhow). It’s not a world which is easily accessible to most straight folks, or even some gay folks. It’s a genuine treat for me.
Thumbs down: I anticipate some viewers will be disappointed by the limited number of orgasms in the first scene (even though the two main characters do climax) and also by the inexplicit angles during that scene’s anal sex. If you want my opinion, I think it’s commendable that no one thrust a camera into P.J.’s space while he was concentrating on accommodating those hard, happy cocks. He’s all aglow with the sheer thrill of it, and that’s good enough for me.
My own criticisms of this disc are pretty minor and technical. The chapter stops, for example, are not always intuitive. It’d make sense to have one at the start of the first scene (especially since the opening credits are rather substantial) and also one at the start of the closing credits (instead of one at the end of the closing credits). With respect to the A/V quality, a little more light in some places would be good, as would more clarity in some on-location sound. This production is quite good on the whole, however, especially for a studio with only a half dozen releases.
Themes: Gay, threeway, group, masturbation, oral, deepthroating, anal, rimming, toys (sex swing, dildo, cock rings), kissing, role play, fetishwear, glory holes, voyeurism, interracial.
Condom use: Yes, condom use is consistent for anal sex. It’s well-integrated into the plot; the men receive their rubbers as they enter the club and can be seen putting them on and taking them off.
Juice-o-meter: High. I’m lucky I didn’t hurt myself during Ian and Nick’s scene. It needs an advisory sticker or something; I’m not sure I’ve ever cum like that in under two minutes before.
Final analysis: Once again, I am astonished by the way each new Daddy Oohhh! movie goes to a different, creative place. It’s tough to categorize this one. The majority of the cast consists of brand-spanking-new amateurs, yet this is definitely a professional production. It’s not overly glossy, not overly gritty, just someplace very nice between fantasy and reality, where all the best desires can be found. Whatever it is, I love it!
Funn & Games Review
Funn & Games
(Full review HERE)
Cast: Nick Stone, Victor Rios, Simon August, Sean Anderson and Roman Reade.
Director: Richard Wagner, Ph.D.
Writer: Steven E. Webb (The storytelling is wordless—there is no audible dialog.)
Production date: 2001
Length: 70 min.
Extras: An 8-min. behind-the-scenes featurette and four performer galleries with 5–15 photos each.
Audio/visual quality: Daddy Oohhh! is a young studio that’s still working toward improvement in their technique. Expect some problems with grain, soft focus, rough edits and white balance shifts. The camera style is not highly explicit and usually avoids extreme close-ups. But the lighting is good overall, and the sets are visually appealing. The first scene incorporates the same classy modern rooms that appear in Good Morning Men, with a mirrored headboard providing an alternate angle on some of the action. The second scene features a sexy red and brown tribal-themed den that I haven’t seen before.
Daddy Oohhh!’s soundtracks never fail to please me. Funn & Games’ moody romantic sextronica is extremely easy on the ears, even if it does loop once or twice. There is no location sound—just the music.
First impression: Why is it spelled “Funn?” Maybe because there’s one “n” for “naughty” and one for “nice!”
Scene highlights: Funn and Games includes two sensuous, full-length scenes that unfold on a Sunday morning in the Pacific Northwest.
Nick Stone and Victor Rios awaken with a kiss on a sunny Seattle day (no, it doesn’t always rain in the Emerald City). Victor helps Nick out of his “I love boys” tee shirt. This is followed by more kissing, full body embracing, a little tussling to determine who loses his skivvies first—these men definitely care about the “play” in foreplay! They walk hand-in-hand to an indoor balcony, where Nick slo-ooo-wly loses his Halloween-themed boxers so Victor can knead and rim his cute hairy butt.
Meanwhile, another early riser is tanning on the deck of the same bed and breakfast. Simon August is all by his lonesome, but he capably takes matters into his own hands with a bottle of baby oil. By the time he spots the Nick and Victor through a window, the tall, fair stranger is sporting a very attractive erection. Who could resist? Certainly not this loving couple, who happily welcome the inquisitive guest with big smiles and friendly smooches.
Nick and Victor each take a turn providing double blowjobs. Simon mushes his face deep into Nick’s ass cleft while Nick deeply sucks Victor’s uncirumcised penis. The threesome triangulates several other ways, and Nick accepts the center spot twice as the oral giver and anal receiver. Simon gyrates his hips and swizzles Nick’s sphincter before pumping it hard and fast. Victor agreeably completes Nick’s anal workout. Nick and Victor lie side by side and pop healthy loads in quick succession (no cutaway shot) while Simon supports. The scene concludes with happy cuddles.
Roman Reade graciously asks Sean Anderson to step inside after Sean stops by with a misdelivered letter. Sean doesn’t appear to be at all dissuaded by the fact that Roman is wearing only a towel around his waist. By the time they settle into the leather sofa, there’s a significant tenting effect going on. They nuzzle together, and Roman unties the drawstring of his neighbor’s sweatpants with a hungry sideways glance. The blowjobs include a little mutual masturbation. Roman does an exceptional job of taking Sean’s cock repeatedly down his throat before slipping it effortlessly into his ass.
They make a smooth, connected transition between positions with Roman grinning in wild ecstasy at Sean’s gusto. After Roman receives extended anal attention, Sean self-stimulates for several minutes and climaxes onto the side of Roman’s face. The editing could have been a little tighter here, but I can see why all the footage was included. Roman repeatedly eyes Sean’s perfect penis with an awestruck gaze, exactly like he’s discovered the face of God. Roman then strokes his own extra-long schlong to release a light load onto his ribcage.
The behind-the-scenes featurette captures a peek at post-coital glow, along with Sean shaking off a leg cramp. We hear good interaction between the cast and crew and see a few flubs. There’s even a bit of extra sex, including a pretty little clip of Simon giving the cameraman a knowing look while he plays with himself.
Screenshots: At this writing, soft-core images from Funn & Games are available at the Daddy Oohhh! website. They provide a good sense of the attractiveness of the performers and the overall vibe of the movie.
Thumbs up: The sex has a genuine warmth and authenticity to it. I never once doubt that these men really want to be doing what they’re doing. It’s fun—and inspiring—to watch as expressions of pleasure and delight play across their faces.
This is the fourth Daddy Oohhh! production I’ve reviewed, and I continue to be thrilled by the uniqueness of each one. I never get the sense that I’m watching assembly line porn. Funn & Games has much of the same sweetness as the first Daddy Oohhh! movie I watched (Willie Gets a Brand-New Thing), but in an all-sex format as opposed to a feature.
Just as a footnote, the Daddy Oohhh! producers have endured a bit of criticism over the fact that their movies don’t always emphasize ejaculations. For the record, Funn & Games scores a reasonably high cumshot percentage: four out of five. Nick’s is especially hearty (as it should be, after all that loving attention in scene one!). The penises stay nice and hard throughout, too.
Thumbs down: Although I dig the romantic feel of this movie, I initially felt a little teased and even frustrated by it. These men seem to go deeply into the lovemaking, and I kept wanting to see and hear the intercourse more explicitly. I especially missed the sounds of the friendly ass slaps, the spontaneous laughter and the grunts of arousal and pleasure. This is largely a personal preference, however. Viewers who like their porn on the softer side might really appreciate the lack of intrusiveness in this presentation. It bothered me less during the second viewing, when I better understood what to expect and raised the rating from three stars to four. (I also liked the freedom of playing the DVD at an appreciable volume while simultaneously enjoying the view of the roofers on my neighbor’s house through my wide open window!)
Themes: Gay, three-way, masturbation, oral, deep-throating, anal, rimming, kissing, undressing, tease, facial.
Condom use: Yes, consistently for anal sex. We even see Victor lubing up and rolling his rubber on, which suits me just fine.
Juice-o-meter: Medium for the first viewing; high for the second.
Final analysis: Funn & Games is a good choice for viewers seeking joyful smut. The attitude is affectionate and positive, without lacking in intensity. The performers’ personalities really shine through their facial expressions, which gives the sex a feeling of freshness and realness. I definitely believe Funn & Games is worth watching more than once!
Willie Gets a Brand New Thing Review
Willie Gets A Brand New Thing
(Full review HERE)
Cast: Jeff Baron, Nick Stone, Mateo Urrutia, Luc Hugo, Justin Strife, Gabriel Comet and Simon August (all actors are nicely identified by clips in the credits, which I appreciate).
Director: Richard Wagner, Ph.D.
Writer: Toby R. Nodtobe (based on a book by Henry David Threw, and yes, you should read the movie’s end credits for even more goofy puns)
Production date: ©2002
Length: 97 min. (The cover states 105 min., which is the length of feature plus the length of the behind-the-scenes featurette.)
Extras: An 8-min. behind-the-scenes featurette and a slide show with 27 movie stills.
Audio/visual quality: The visual quality is acceptable, but a little amateurish. There are ongoing issues with camera jitters, soft focus, color shifts, grain. The lighting is always adequate, but sometimes rather harsh and uneven. The camera operators eschew proctocam close-ups, instead providing teasing glimpses from just enough angles to confirm that the anal penetration is authentic. The balance of wide, medium and close-up shots is generally pleasing. The scenes include a bit of footage from Willie’s Canon ZR40 digital camcorder. It’s lower in quality, but this actually works really well (almost like a special effect) in support of the story. The cumshots are shown from two or three different perspectives in quick succession, which I enjoy. The locations are also reasonably classy, with quirky and interesting art.
The synthesized score ranges from romantic to rhythmic. It has an atmospheric quality that reminds me of planetarium music. There’s some looping, but the soundtrack flows nicely and is above average in quality. The location audio suffers from a bit from background hiss. A few directions to the performers are faintly audible. The volume shifts a little in some places, but the balance between the sex sounds and the music usually seems about right.
Disc problems: I wish the titles weren’t split two-thirds of the way through the movie. The viewer can’t skip or scan across the “sticky spot”—an inconvenience which makes the DVD authoring seem a bit sloppy.
First impression: Willie’s brand new thing is a fine thing indeed!
Scene highlights: All Jeff Baron (“Willie”) wants for his birthday is a mini-cam. Fortunately, his lover Mateo Urrutia (“Matt”) and other close friends know just how to nurture him for a truly memorable day.
Mateo awakens Jeff with a kiss and a prettily wrapped present. Jeff is eager to test his birthday toy, and he encourages Mateo to do a little performance for the new camera. Mateo shyly smiles as he strips out of his tank and sexy boxer briefs (which are patterned like the Canadian flag). A few more kisses persuade Jeff that he needs to set the camera down. They alternate blowjobs, and Mateo also appears to rim Jeff before giving him anal love in doggy and missionary. The pacing is gentle, and the angles aren’t terribly explicit, but Jeff’s sustained, appreciative eye contact keeps the chemistry at a nice simmer. Mateo removes the condom and spurts a photogenic load (against a blue backdrop) onto Jeff’s balls. Jeff doesn’t achieve an orgasm himself. These two guys make a very convincing couple, however, so this pairing has a lot of allure.
Mmmm…the weight room. I can almost smell it. The establishing shot briefly lingers on the beefcake photos on the wall. I love watching men pump iron, and it’s fun to check out these guys’ form. The trainer, Nick Stone, does curl/press combos—my most favorite exercise for biceps and deltoids. Oops, sorry…I was getting a little distracted there. You want to know about the sex, yes? It’s very good. Nick starts with a friendly little ab massage for Justin Strife, a weight room newbie who’s learning tricep pull-downs. The undressing is shown (which I really like). The blowjobs are done in every possible permutation and are interspersed with kissing, nipple play and mutual masturbation. Nick gleefully grips the bar and performs mini-pull-ups to fuck Jeff’s mouth. The ass play evolves from fingers to tongues to penises. Jeff reaches back and grabs Nick’s hip to pull his cock in. Justin also gladly accepts a turn at Jeff’s butt. Both men spurt onto Jeff’s well-toned torso. Like every scene on this disc, this one has light yet good energy; no one’s ever idle for long.
Returning from a run, Gabriel Comet, Luc Hugo and Simon August dive into the fun part of their workout. There’s oral affection aplenty for all involved. Simon flashes a huge grin at Jeff’s camera while receiving a rimjob from Gabriel and blowjob from Luc. Luc pulls his black jockstrap to the side so Gabriel can swallow the full length of his dick. For the anal, Gabriel dons a cheerful yellow condom, and Simon straddles him cowboy-style. Luc then welcomes Gabriel’s cock in two positions and shoots a wild little load in several directions. Luc is the only one to climax, so this scene feels a bit weaker than the one before it. Yet it’s still engaging enough to hold my attention. It helps to see Jeff circulating with his camera and stroking in enjoyment. Also, Gabriel is black, which adds a pleasing interracial aesthetic.
Mateo throws a nice little surprise party for Jeff and his friends. Gabriel, Luc, Simon, Justin and Nick gather round the cake to sing “Happy Birthday.” The guys exchange affectionate hugs—I don’t know if that’s common in gay porn, but it’s a rarity in the hetero porn that I’ve seen. After I watched it once, I went back and watched it again. Nick and Justin sneak off to Jeff’s bed, where Luc catches them kissing and undressing. Of course Jeff finds them, too, and pretty soon we have one big happy heap of erect cocks. The scene lasts a half-hour, so I won’t give a blow-by-blow. I find it sexier than most orgies I’ve watched, though. There’s excellent balance in the activity among the participants—lots of trading around, but nothing too rushed or chaotic. Nick appears to have no trouble taking Jeff’s penis down his throat. The anal givers are Nick and Justin, and the receivers are Jeff and Luc. The birthday boy Jeff, who’s been saving it up all day, orgasms first. Everyone else soon follows. The movie wraps up with some sweet cuddling between Mateo and Jeff.
Screenshots: At this writing, stills from Willie Gets a Brand New Thing are available at the Daddy Oohhh! website.
Thumbs up: The DVD notes explain, “Daddy Oohhh! is replacing what has gone missing from adult entertainment: the romantic, alluring and seductive aspects of sex. All our products are being produced to appeal to a vast, underserved consumer group—women. While there is an explosion of sexually explicit material available these days, very little is tailored to female tastes. Our remedy…put the playfulness back into sex play, and do so with wit, style and humor. We assume this ethic will resonate well with all sex positive people regardless of gender.”
If I’m at all representative of Daddy Oohhh!’s target audience, I must say they are well on their way to fulfilling their mission statement. My primary feelings while watching this movie are delight, amusement and arousal. I especially like the way that Jeff issues gentle commands and encouragement from behind his mini-cam. He’s a great model of sexual self-awareness and confidence. His interaction with his friends also adds a clever “gonzo within a feature” twist to this lightly-plotted movie.
Incidentally, the cover photo makes Jeff’s hair appear dark brown. Actually, his coloring is more-salt-than-pepper. Very sexy. I adore guys who are going silver yet still have youthful faces and hard bods. The entire cast is good-looking, in fact. Without exception, the performers’ faces are handsome, and their physiques are fit (not overblown).
Thumbs down: The behind-the-scenes featurette (inaccurately labeled as “bloopers”) includes the director’s reassurance to the performers that he doesn’t expect everyone to ejaculate in every scene. I have mixed feelings about this. Part of me is cheering, because I admire and applaud his no-pressure style. On the other hand, it is porn. I love cumshots—they’re fun to watch, and they bring scenes to a tidy (or not so tidy) conclusion. It’s probably more realistic that these men don’t always pop, but I find myself wishing they would. Every guy in my fantasies climaxes every time.
Even to my untrained, inexpert eyes, there are problems with the way the bedroom’s lit. The key and fill lights appear to be nearly equal in intensity, casting unnatural-looking multiple shadows. It doesn’t help that additional ambient lighting comes from the recessed ceiling fixtures and bedside lamps. So the color temperature is uneven—the guys move in and out of orangish spots on the bed. The problem is not severe enough to ruin my enjoyment of the movie. It does give this production a less-than-polished appearance, however, and anyone who’s seen more than a few dozen pornos might notice it. The lighting in the gym is better.
Themes: Gay, threeway, group, masturbation, oral, anal, deepthroating, rimming (strongly implied), interracial, kissing, foreplay, undressing, exhibitionism, voyeurism, weight lifting.
Condom use: Yes, always for anal sex. Often we get to see them going on or off, which meets my preferences.
Juice-o-meter: High.
Final analysis: Despite the middling technical qualities (could be better, could be worse), Willie Gets a Brand New Thing charms me from start to finish. The upbeat story and chemistry keep me juicy throughout. It’s nice work from a newer studio; I recommend it for all of us who appreciate some romance with our hardcore gay porn.
CountryTime, Country Fine Review
CountryTime, Country Fine
(Full review HERE)
Cast: Jeff Baron, Brett Collins and Cody Scott (each clearly identified by clips in the credits, which I always appreciate).
Director: Richard Wagner
Writer: Toby R. Noddtobe, based on a book by Henri de Ballsack. Someone’s had fun cooking up a slew of puns for the end credits. My favorite? The production sound mixer, Sean Song d’Moor.
Production date: ©2002
Length: 65 min.
Extras: A 10-min. behind-the-scenes featurette and a gallery with 42 images.
Audio/visual quality: The visual quality is tolerable, but not the finest effort I’ve seen from this studio. The camerawork meanders at times; there are unsteady moments in the handheld footage and possibly too much use of the zoom. The focus is not always as sharp or careful as it should be. The lighting conditions also pose a minor challenge, due to the high contrast between sunlit windows and candlelit interior. Despite the flaws, the movie’s never unwatchable. I do think there’s a nice, realistic appeal in the overall appearance of the location and the performers.
The 2.5 star A/V rating reflects the fact that although the visual aspects are slightly below average, the soundtrack is good. The romantic anthems are composed specifically for this production and possess a gentle, old-timey country charm. The balance somewhat favors the music, but attentive listeners should be able to understand the dialog.
First impression: The living is sweet and soft and mellow in this corner of the country.
Scene highlights: Two lovers, Jeff Baron and Brett Collins, are relaxing with buddy Cody Scott at a weekend cottage. Dressed casually in tees and jeans, they enjoy a friendly game of Seattleopoly. Cody goes to jail, which prompts Jeff to give him a teasing shove and pull off his shirt. The game continues, with all men eventually losing their shirts. Brett leaves to fetch another beer and doesn’t seem to mind that Jeff and Cody are kissing when he returns. In fact, he joins them.
Jeff sweeps the game board out of the way so they can all trade smooches on the ottoman. Flies get unzipped, and denim falls away to reveal white undies. Jeff apparently has second thoughts, however, and calls a halt before they take things further.
Jeff and Brett retreat to their bed, where they snuggle for a while in a semi-doze. Cody spies on them and begins to masturbate. There’s a pleasing slo-mo shot of Jeff and Brett sliding their cocks against each other. Up to this point, everything’s been foreplay, with the clock reading 23:42 as Jeff places his lips on Brett’s cock. They add lube for further fondling, and Brett takes his turn at providing oral. When the anal sex begins, we are not in position to see Brett’s entry into Jeff. Cody sees it, though, and smiles broadly.
Cody finally dares to step into the room, climbing into bed at Jeff and Brett’s invitation. Oral affection flows freely, mostly in the form of sensuous double blowjobs. Everyone takes turns at giving and receiving. Brett provides more anal love to Jeff; again, the footage is not explicit—you’ll have to trust the facial expressions if you need evidence that it’s really happening. Cody also goes prone for a brief (incomplete?) anal penetration from Brett, but most of the footage here concentrates on the nice kisses and eye contact between Jeff and Brett. After quite a bit of further kissing and stroking, Brett releases a strong pop onto his own belly, followed several minutes later by Cody’s equally strong pop onto the same spot.
The behind-the-scenes featurette offers peeks at the photo shoot, suggestions and improvisation from the director, nervous anticipation and camaraderie among the performers, a center of gravity blooper and postcoital cleanup in the shower.
Screenshots: At this writing, soft-core images from the set of Country Time, Country Fine are available at the Daddy Oohhh! website. They accurately portray the look of the movie and its performers.
Thumbs up ‘n’ down: Depending on your preferences, the format of this movie could be a big plus or a big minus. I’m an erotic realist who takes delight in watching tenderness between sexually attracted men. But ultimately, Country Time, Country Fine is a little sluggish even for my tastes. I prefer more momentum in my sex, and I feel somewhat unnerved by the start-and-stop-and-start-again rhythm in this movie. Still, it’s worth noting that it’s nearly impossible to find smut consisting of a single scene, lovingly streeeched to a full hour and beyond. Viewers who crave the satisfaction of romantic and true-to-life pacing, complete with its hesitations and moments of awkwardness, might absolutely love Country Time, Country Fine. I do think these men share a genuine warmth; they can’t even keep their hands to themselves in the behind-the-scenes footage.
Themes: Gay, threeway, oral, anal (not explicit), masturbation, kissing (major theme), undressing, foreplay, voyeurism.
Condom use: Yes, for anal sex. We get to see Brett putting his on.
Juice-o-meter: Medium low overall.
Final analysis: This movie is not my personal favorite among Daddy Oohhh!’s growing catalog of titles, but I do think it serves a sadly neglected niche. If you’re a member of the special viewing audience who prefers sex that’s wholesome and easygoing and completely unrushed, then Country Time, Country Fine might indeed be fine and worth your time.
BodyRocks Review
BodyRocks
(Full review HERE)
Cast: Nick Stone, Sebastian Long (aka Roman Reade), Sean Anderson, Bryce Denim, Todd Newman, Clay Calhoon, Bart Wells, Angus Reed and Orlando Alverez.
Director: Richard Wagner, Ph.D.
Writer: Steven E. Webb
Production date: 2001
Length: 60 min.
Extras: A 5-min. behind-the-scenes featurette, a trailer for BodyRocks II and a gallery with 50 images.
Audio/visual quality: It’s clear right from the opening credits that this is a classy and artistic production. The camera traces the elegantly lit contours of an attractive nude body—it’s Nick Stone, reclining and breathing deeply—while a smooth, sexy dance beat plays on the soundtrack. The editing is spirited and playful, with lots of special effects like split screens, picture-in-picture, monochrome tints, widescreen masks, enhanced motion, jump cuts, mirror images, blurs, frames and filters (I’m not sure I have all the correct technical names, but hopefully you get the idea). There are ongoing issues with soft focus, remnants and shadows throughout the movie, but they’re not too distracting. The worst of the visual flaws are concentrated in the last scene, where crew members occasionally intrude at the edges and let their shadows fall on the performers in a more noticeable way. The set design has a nicely authentic feel; it looks exactly like a moderately upscale office complete with a professional massage table.
The soundtrack, by Icepick, is topnotch. I really can’t imagine anything more perfect for this production. It has
such a great rhythm that I find myself practically dancing in my seat while watching the movie. The on-site audio, where it exists, is sometimes muffled and/or accompanied by background hum. It’s not impossible to understand the dialog, but I occasionally have to turn up the volume. Personally, I think music’s so good that any blemishes in the location sound can probably be forgiven.
First impression: Hands down, BodyRocks is one sexy DVD!
Scene highlights: The plot is so spare that I decided not to rate it, though the guys deserve credit for delivering their minimal dialog in a natural fashion. BodyRocks is a series of vignettes revolving around the personal services available in a sensual massage room. It’s erotic yet also definitely hard-core (in fact, it’s significantly harder than the other four movies currently available from this studio).
Orlando Alverez, the receptionist, shows Clay Calhoon to the treatment room. Clay rubs his crotch briefly through his boxer briefs before stripping completely and reclining butt-up on the massage table. Heh heh, I think he’s experienced sessions with this therapist before. Sean Anderson (a good-looking, nicely freckled newbie) has barely begun his first oil strokes when Clay nuzzles his face against Sean’s groin. That’s all the encouragement Sean needs to get naked, too. Sean grasps the back of Clay’s head while his cock disappears deep into Clay’s willing mouth. Sean joins Clay on the table to provide similar oral attention. Sean rolls Clay’s hips up into the air to aim long, assertive strokes down his ass. Both men relieve their tension very effectively onto their own lean bellies.
Todd Newman arrives at BodyRocks wearing a suit and glasses. He complains of girlfriend troubles and confesses his nervousness about seeing a male massage therapist. Because he doesn’t seem sure of what he’s getting into, the scene initially feels a little uncomfortable to me (though in an interesting way). Bryce Denim‘s specialty is beginners; he soon soothes Todd’s jumpiness. A little effleurage and a lot of kissing are exactly what Todd needs. I like the way Bryce eagerly clambers over Todd for the oral sex, first licking his leg. During 69, Todd fully opens his throat by dangling his head off the edge of the massage table. The camera angle provides a great view of Todd rimming Bryce’s ass. Todd fucks Bryce directly to nirvana, with Bryce’s stomach muscles growing tighter and tighter until he erupts on them. Todd shoots a second layer of cum across the same spot. These two have great chemistry, finishing with huge grins on their faces. This scene also provides the first clue that someone has been watching the action with a hidden camera.
Bart Wells has obviously been Roman Reade‘s client for quite some time, since he lets Roman eye him up and down as he disrobes. Roman’s cock is so substantial that Bart is pretty much forced to focus his mouthwork on the head. Roman gives Bart’s ass a friendly slap before he rims it. Roman playfully pumps Bart’s butt in four positions, including cowboy, which allows some truly outstanding eye contact between the two men. Roman wanks out a thick load all over Bart’s fresh, receptive face (including his lips and eyelids). Roman’s hair is thinning a bit on top, and I think viewers who appreciate the older man/younger man dynamic are really going to dig this sizzling scene.
Nick Stone (the box cover model) waits at the front desk for the arrival of the next appointment. Angus Reed looks pretty dang happy when he learns that Nick will be his therapist—an attitude that I can definitely understand. Nick helps Angus get comfortable right away, caressing him as he’s still undressing and giving him something nice to suck. Nick then wraps his lips around Angus’ shaft, skillfully working it at all depths, from tip to base. Angus appears to go into an altered state of ecstasy when Nick teases his sphincter with tongue and fingers. Two fingers, three, four and a thumb…now that’s stretchy! Angus proves himself equal to Nick’s deepthroating during an oral interlude. Nick then thoroughly opens Angus’ ass with a hefty flesh-colored dildo and (briefly) with an insertion of his entire hand. Angus keeps his back arched practically the whole time from the sheer intensity of it. As a final gift to his client, Nick sends a strong arc of semen across Angus’ torso, which he receives with a grateful smile. But that’s not all, since partway through this scene, Orlando reveals himself as the naughty boy who’s been watching the sessions. He strokes himself to orgasm while watching the video feed from the hidden camera (which I can relate to, since my response is pretty much identical to his).
At the end of a busy day, the staff members of BodyRocks gather in the lounge to unwind. Nick, Roman, Bryce and Sean pull off their clothes and join up every which way. There’s good, bustling energy to this scene; all four performers are frequently visible at the same time, and they’re all busy. Roman wears a rubber cock ring. Each man gives and receives oral. Roman and Nick take turns as the center of attention, while the other guys actively stimulate their anuses, penises and mouths. Roman’s butt somehow accommodates the thick dildo from the previous scene. All four men climax onto Roman’s chest and stomach (Roman and Sean ejaculate in the same take, with no cutaway shot). This scene grew on me with successive viewings. I considered it above average the first time I saw it, but after familiarizing myself more with each of the individual studs, I really got into it the second time.
The behind-the-scenes featurette is short but sweet. We see a few flubs, a little extra sex, and fun interaction between performers and crew.
Screenshots: At this writing, pix from the set of BodyRocks are available at the Daddy Oohhh! website. These images give an accurate idea of what the performers look like, but don’t fully communicate the aesthetic quality of the movie.
Thumbs up: Choosing an overall rating on this title has been challenging; I debated quite a while between a 4 and a 4.5. There’s no doubt in my mind that BodyRocks is “very good” (the 4-star rating), but is it truly “exceptional” (the 4.5-star rating)? Two elements boosted it to the higher mark: (1) the production quality in the editing/soundtrack and (2) my developing obsession for Nick. Nick Stone, with that oh-so-naughty gleam in his eye and irresistible manly body hair, positively exudes seductive sexual energy. My sources tell me that he also appears in the sixth Daddy Oohhh! title, which was taped in mid-March 2003 and will hopefully be released soon. I’m already waiting on the edge of my very moist seat.
I realize that some viewers prefer straightforward porn with no music and no visual effects. This DVD is probably not the best choice for any purists. But one of the common objections I’ve heard is that some producers use editing effects in a cheap attempt to disguise poor heat and chemistry. This is never a problem with BodyRocks. Four out of five of the scenes feature excellent one-on-one action, with just the right flow of foreplay and hard-core for my tastes. With strong performances like these, the editor can legitimately go to town with further enhancements. The resulting style reminds me a little of the dreamlike path that my own fantasies often take. For this reason, I find Bodyrocks highly arousing as well as highly aesthetic.
Thumbs down: The running time is a bit lean. Or maybe it just seems that way; this movie flies by for me. One more scene would have been nice. I believe BodyRocks is the first of Daddy Oohhh’s DVDs (I’m watching them out of order), but future releases would benefit from the addition of a bonus scene in the extras. It’s becoming clear to me that although this studio is consistently sex-positive, the movies do have some great variations in style. Bonus scenes and/or trailers on each disc would help familiarize new viewers with more of Daddy Oohhh’s catalog.
Also, this is just a personal preference, but I would’ve enjoyed seeing a little more massage. Roman and Nick, in particular, appear to have a confident sense of touch. And though this doesn’t bother me, I feel obligated to note that some penises in this movie are not erect 100% of the time and that two of the nine performers do not ejaculate. If this is a pet peeve for you, but the movie sounds good otherwise, you might consider checking it out as a rental/VOD instead of a purchase.
Themes: Gay, group, masturbation, oral, deepthroating, anal, rimming, fisting, facial, toys (dildo, cock ring), voyeurism, kissing, undressing.
Condom use: Yes, always for anal sex.
Juice-o-meter: Very high.
Final analysis: My admiration for this young, independent Seattle studio keeps expanding with each movie I see. For hot gay sex that doesn’t insult your intelligence, Daddy Oohhh! is the place to go. BodyRocks, with its great sexual chemistry and appealing audiovisual aesthetics, is a perfect place to start.
