I posted about my drone pilot license and the drone work I did a while ago for a movie with Steve Cruz called Haulin’ Ass… but now I have the cover of the movie which I haven’t seen yet, but Steve Cruz tells me is a spot-on version of what he envisioned when he first asked me if I’d be his co-director. He also said that one of the scenes is one of his favorite things he’s done in 10 years… so I can’t wait to see it, either.
Coming soon to Raging Stallion. Stay Tuned.
A sadly-necessary roundup of bullshit from the inter webs.
No, “I would do anything for love but I won’t do that” isn’t about anal sex. Or pegging. And meatloaf didn’t write that song.
No, Madonna did not “perform with holograms.” Those were just digital layovers done for the TV audience. The live audience didn’t see them.
No, Hillary Clinton still isn’t going to be arrested.
There was no cloning facility discovered in the Nevada desert.
Marijuana doesn’t kill cancer cells.
Turmeric doesn’t cure Alzheimer’s.
Dandelion root doesn’t cure liver failure.
Ginger doesn’t treat kidney problems.
Boiled banana peel doesn’t help you “melt fat.”
Vaccinate your damn kids.
There is no such thing as a “condom that tests for STDs.”
This was originally shot on the set of my movie “Wide Awake” as part of a short dream sequence (technically the whole movie is a dream sequence) in the “Blue” section of the film where George Ce watches the men from below the surface of the water, looking up. I set my camera at the bottom of the pool and allowed Tom Wolfe and Jay Bentley (and a bit of Dario Beck) to play around in the water in the blazing Palm Springs sun, I shot it during a few different times of day to get slightly different light temperatures and angles of the sunbeams shining through the water.
About 20 years ago I was at Queen Video on Queen Street in Toronto looking for something to rent to watch that night. That was back in the days you had to go out and rent VHS tapes and the best places had all the cool underground movies, documentaries and random things you’d never heard about but rented based solely on the cover.
I found a documentary called Making Porn and added it to whatever else I had rented that day (if my memory serves me, it was the Whoopie Goldberg comedy Jumpin’ Jack Flash). It was, obviously, about how gay porn was made… but it strongly featured a director named Chi Chi LaRue. I had heard of Chi Chi, of course, in those days we were all pretty up on who was who in porn, but didn’t know much past the name and a few titles. I was struck by just how focused and driven he was on set… I also loved how fun the whole process looked. At the time I was working a corporate purchasing job that was slowly sucking my soul away and at night I was trying to become a rock star with my band PlasticPalacePeople. But there was something in that movie that made me wonder what it would be like to work in porn… and within 4 years I had my first job working as web designer and video editor for a small studio based in Toronto… fast forward to 2019 and after knowing each other for years… Chi Chi and I finally got to work together on a movie he’s directing for Noir Male. I’m doing still photography on this, and it’s been a very rewarding experience so far. It’s been very fun to be able to break the mold of what I’ve been doing for years and let my creativity bloom a bit in directions I haven’t gone before… it’s also just been a blast to work with a bunch of models I haven’t worked with before…
Stay tuned, I’ll have more info coming soon…
So now that I’ve relaunched here at DickHarden and I’m updating semi-regularly, one of my top search terms is “Jasun Mark Caught Jerking Off.”
And… yes… like a few times a month I still get asked for this clip. It’s been nearly a decade since Jake Cruise caught me jerking off in my office, shot video of it, posted it on the now-defunct CocksureMen blog called “CuzUrHorny” and… I became a meme.
People still ask me about this and I’m going to come clean. Not like I’m an Oscar-caliber actor, but the fact that many people aren’t sure if this was real or not means that Jake and I did pretty well. But yeah, this was planned and this was, in fact TAKE THREE. I had to cum three times before we got it right. I was pretty tired when I got home.
Enjoy (clearly I did)
Also, it was a HOLIDAY special. Not a “Christmas” special.
SO if you haven’t heard because… I dunno, your only internet is DickHarden (and if so, your old buddy Jasun thanks you)… the “teaser trailer” for the new Star Wars movie is out… now… it’s not much of a teaser. It’s really just a 90-second video montage that essentially just shows us moving pictures of the people that we knew were in the movie anyway… virtually no dialogue or real idea of what the movie is about. The only solid info that we have is that the movie takes place a substantial amount of time after the events of the successful but maligned The Last Jedi. The only other hint of what it may be about comes with the cryptic title “The Rise of Skywalker” and the disembodied laugh that was unmistakably from Emperor Palpatine (who, we assumed, died on the second Death Star so he’s either appearing as a Force Ghost or he didn’t really die).
But as a die-hard Star Wars fan, I’ll of course go see this… and was wearing my X-Wing Fighter onesie, drinking from my Death Star rocks glass and holding my light saber because… that’s how I roll.
OK, so… not really. This is a drone shot from the forthcoming movie Hauling Ass that I was graciously invited to co-direct with Steve Cruz for Raging Stallion. This scene stars my old buddy Jack Vidra (whom those of you who have followed my career will remember from my movie Pool Service where he performs with Matthew Bosch and Liam Knox) and Ryan Stone.
Also on hand were Brian Bonds and Mr. Pam as we braved the VERY chilling winter cold in the high desert. As we braved the cold and wind and rain… the guys delivered an excellent performance… Although we did have to retreat inside once temperatures dropped and the wind picked up. Still… So fun that we get to do fun stuff like this.
Watch for Hauling Ass to come out this spring. And keep watching here at DickHarden for more updates…
Wrapped a fun scene with my old friend Liam Knox with Raging Stallion Exclusive Ricky Larkin… co-directing with another long-time friend Steve Cruz. The movie is called Hauling Ass and I’ll have a bunch more from that movie very soon…But here’s some of the fun from that day….
We all need a mentor.. and big brother figure to show us the ropes, right?
This was a fun scene to shoot, although we pushed our own limits in shooting in a very closed, tight space. Looks great and Liam and Lorenzo have chemistry off the chart, although considering they’re two of the coolest men in porn, it wasn’t a surprise that they’d get along so well.
This was NOT an easy scene to shoot.. the alley between houses is VERY tight and we had to use every possible lighting trick to get the light either in there OR sunlight reflected and defused and still able to get two cameras… but we made it work.
I was around the corner watching through the monitors yelling directions through a bush.
No, really.
Electrician Liam Knox gives apprentice Lorenzo Flexx some pointers at the switch box. “I really enjoy working with you,” says Lorenzo, staring intently at him. Liam grips his shoulder, moving in for a kiss as their jean bulges grind. Liam nibbles Lorenzo’s lip and takes charge, keeping the sub under his spell as he guides him down. He beats his dick on the sucker’s face, Lorenzo taking it to the root as he chokes, spit dripping down Liam’s sac to the ground.
If you guys were to pick your favorite gay porn star, to star in a parody of Netflix The Punisher, who would you pick? pic.twitter.com/9X8aST2krq

Yeah…Chichi… I just might have have an idea… 🙂
As I wrote over on the Titanmen blog… I almost cut off Jesse Jackman’s head with the drone when we were shooting this scene.
Ok, not quite… there are safety guards and the blades are made of soft plastic.
But it would have done some pretty nasty damage to him and we wouldn’t have been able to shoot the scene. The carnage can be seen in the split screen from the BTS movie… I got REALLY close to Jesse..
BTW… that shot was kinda fucked up. That’s not the one we used. I had forgotten to remove the safety brace on the drone and the camera wasn’t able to pan straight down. The shot that I used in the scene was done after this and the drone stays way above their heads and just pans down at them. But this was a pretty cool shot, too.
The hardest part of the opening bit was that I had to shoot most of the opening sequence twice. I shot this with four different cameras. The Drone, my OSMO, my GoPro and the full-quality Titan HD cameras. But since most of those cameras have to be held very close… I couldn’t be in a wide shot… anyway… I had Jesse and Julian play around in the pool using my big cameras.. and then stripped down to my bathing suit and shot it all under water with my GoPro.
