Great, hope he works with John Rutherford.
Why was Matthew never in a film called “HeadRush”. Next film he does should be called HeadRush. Hopfully it’s with Colt.
Rush would be great with Colt but I highly doubt that will be enough for him. He has to be careful who he works with and how much he works at this point, it could be completely over for him in a matter of months if he isn’t careful. Good luck Matthew and make sure you think big picture!
it’s time to go really
As a porn fan I should be callous and snarky and say I never went for the Muscle guys of Falcon.
But I know Matthew Rush is one of the most liked, nicest guys in porn, I greatly respect him and to be fair one of my fav videos of the Rush era at Falcon featured Matthew and Josh Weston in a scene from Deep South,Part 2
that was the GayVN best duo winner and one DAMN HOT scene!
But that was 6 LONG YEARS ago!
The passing of the Rush era also signals the end of the DVD Epoch in Gay Porn.
I dont think we will ever see one man(or studio) so dominant again.
Which is a good thing!
Porn is maturing into a multifaceted universe a Pornucopia that satisfies every niche and genre. Dominated by no one!
The Falcon Studio as the arbiter of what Gay Porn is that is what comes to a close.
It really died last century but it has taken this long for the industry to acknowledge it.
I think we porn fans had that figured out
oh about 6 years ago!
If I were Matthew I would take some time off then choose a surprising and image bending project with Rutherford,Chi Chi or Kristofer Weston.
“Dominated by no one!” Except gay for pay. Everyone wants to bend the gay for pay fantasists.
Matthew Rush will do great things regardless of who he works with because he is the bona fide super star not the people who have the pleasure of filming him.
He’s too big for Colt even! I like Matthew, but his hayday is past in front of the camera. Maybe this was a business decision by Falcon’s new owner?
Didn’t John Rutherford and Chi Chi already work with him? Didn’t John sign him to his contract in the good old days of Falcon?
I hope he doesn’t do COLT. They treat their models like shit.
Falcon still has Erik Rhodes, Roman Heart and a couple other big names, they will all be fine and so will Matthew.
“I don‚Äôt fit the Falcon look anymore,‚Äù he said. ‚ÄúI‚Äôm older, I have tattoos ”
But didnt Falcon hired last year to MUSCLE GOD Zeb Atlas? Paying him a good amount of money?
Matt is leaving Falcon for many reasons I think.
One of them : Falcon decision on hiring Zeb. All the attention is going to the new guy now. And it is a rule of the game. He should have known that.
Think It was a huge mistake leaving Falcon what is the most world known gay porn company.
Who will hire him now?
He doesnt fit in Hot House.
Raging Stallion has not enough money to pay him.
Colt is going down dramaticly. All the models ran away . Gage Weston, Luke Garret, Skye Woods.
Wish you good luck Matt!
Lol @ exclusives as if i wanna see the same guys in these movies over n over again!
Lyon Arthut, where did you hear that Gage Weston left COLT? Because that’s not true. In fact, he just had a webcam show on their site 2 days ago.
Rabbit on the moon:
Gage Weston left Colt Studio last year. He will keep his web site, but not porn shooting anymore.
Also Luke Garret left the company but He didnt say why.
Chris Wide left the company one year. His bf was not allowing him to do porn.
Skye left the company. Actually He was not resigned.
Rumors rumors rumors. Lyon, don’t you have anything better to do than spread evilness? Tisk tisk tisk!
Sydney:
Evilness is my job . And these are not rumors.
Well, if Gage still keeps his COLT site running, then technically he’s still with the company. Also, Gage told me in a recent email that he does still do movies for COLT. But only solo scenes because he has a boyfriend.
Well at least we know now how long a LIFETIME Exclusive contract is in Porn!
7 years
Actually California law does not ALLOW an Exclusive Contract Longer than 7 years.
How predictable. A bunch of pathetic industry creeps that just had to make this into something negative. I own a site based in the Bay Area, today I received a ‘Best of Matthew Rush Vol. 1″ DVD, a copy of Unzipped February and a very nice ‘farewell to Matthew’ letter from Falcon. I opened the Unzipped and was amazed to find an article on Matthew leaving Falcon, it’s a really nice article. Falcon and Matthew have handled this with an incredible amount of class too bad some of you are classless creeps who don’t even understand the word ‘class’.
Matthew Rush is a very sweet man. He needs to be a bartender at a hip club. I would order drinks from him and chat him up.
Hey Tra-La-La. You hit the nail on the head with your predictable statement. What a bunch of sad saps.
Rush is such a stunning guy. I met him years ago at a Bad Boys Pool Party and I’d just love to shoot more photos of him now. He looks great and more mature. Still very handsome. I wish him the best.
grt work mattty (greg) best wishes
