Rhett from SCM

We need to remember that at SCM's height, Sean Cody, Corbin Fisher, ChaosMen, Randy Blue, and CollegeDudes and other studios, were demolishing the gay internet porn market. For the same price, SCM was basically offering the gay equivalent of soft-core porn. When they started around 2003, it could work, but by the late 2000s Sean Cody and Corbin Fisher were producing two films a week with fresh new college aged hunks from across America.

Spend $20 to listen to SCM owner yabber on and get us at most a passionless BJ and handjob. Or spend $20 seeing some of the hottest All-American looking men of the decade fuck, suck, rim, swallow loads and eventually take it raw. It's no wonder SCM couldn't compete.

The SCM model bonuses were crap. SC was splashing like $1.5-2k for a simple jerk off scene with a free trip to CA and hotel room. For most of their models, that was a big deal. Then fucking could get you $2-3k a scene. Models were making serious money. Models at SCM weren't paid anything close to what the other studios paid out.

But another issue is the studio owner was simply mean on camera. And what sort of goofy business plan required a MASSIVE warehouse/studio in Vegas? They only moved to vegas because competition in SD was steep since SC was there snatching up talent. SCM could never recruit nationwide which also doomed their growth efforts.

Bad business all around for SCM.
You're seriously overthinking this. SCM was never designed to be like Sean Cody or Corbin Fisher. It wasn’t about polished scenes or professional models. It worked because it was pure Vegas trash hustle from the company drawing random guys to do something stupid for cash with the "What Happens in Vegas, Stays in Vegas" mentality.

They had billboards everywhere offering quick cash to guys 18+ to jerk off on camera. Unless you are 21 you aren't able to Drink or Gamble. Meanwhile you're barely legal and broke while visiting Vegas? Ffs It made the local news because their billboards were everywhere.

And this was the early 2000s, when the internet still felt like a black hole. These weren’t performers. They were just random dudes who figured no one back home would ever find out. Cheap money, quick shoot, done. Extra money for doing goofy "queer" shit. That was the brand. That’s what made it work.
 
Holy Shit. Seriously, I hate this moment in time. That entire thing was spat out from AI. 🤮
Lmao it really wasn't! IDK if I should take that as a compliment or an insult? i just genuinely remember that much about the site. Sorry if that makes me a loser.

Also you can tell b/c my punctuation is terrible and I'm sure there are a couple typos I missed
 
I always felt like it was just a vehicle for the site owner to trick hot younger guys (mostly straight) to hang out with him, get naked, and occasionally let him join in. A lot of these smaller sites where the photographer participated always felt this way to me. More about the owner getting off than producing anything of quality ... and if he could make some money while doing it, even better. The website was the ruse to get the models to take him seriously.
 
SCM was not without its flaws...but the fact that he could get true to life amateur straight men to french kiss and lick ass (and for the most part seem like they enjoyed it) was pretty genius.
Yes but it used to happen all the time on a variety of platforms. Unfortunately OnlyFans and the general acceptance of 'internalized homophobic'' as an identity group ruined porn.
 
They got used on the site. But yeah, most weren't released. Jump back a couple years when the SCM owner started a strip club in Portland and you'll see a few of them never seen before... There's no doubt the SCM owner has them all.
So if I buy a subscription to the website and click on a particular famous video of Rhett. Would it have a section for pics too? Or is it sometimes and sometimes not?

I never said it was designed to be like the others. I was pointing out the realities of the market. SCM lost their market share when their product stop producing content viewers wanted. For the same price, viewers could get much hotter men, at a higher pace, with actual gay sex and no annoying host.

Legal solicitation under the guess of porn production. But, the internet made it so easy to make a living off of their kink that they turned it into a business. Most failed but SCM had a good run considering the site owner's issues.

all porn production is legal solicitation. all of it. Just because one guy is older and obese doesnt suddenly make it more or less creepy or weird. It is what it is

Anyone have anything on StraightCollegeMen's latest initiate, Rhett? He's super hot and SUPER HUNG!

The preview vids are great, but
Can I just say WOW this thread has been going for 17 years, it just shows what a stand out guy Rhett was/is
 
This thread,is a really great trip down memory lane,as I really loved Rhett [Garrett Soto=Brett Myles]''s original quartet of solo 'unassuming novice' vids at SCM,before his later SCM and AZ collab ones. :rolleyes:

The youthful awkwardness from Rhett plus SCM owner Matt's whiny voice,from those early shoots;for me,make such a bizarre if uncomfortable combos,that you cant help but be transfixed by how 'laid-back' Rhett is,when his oversized genitals were being groped and manhandled by Matt .This is why 'Rhettplusonewatcher' vid,is probably my fav., due to Matt's honest and direct vocal assessment : 'You have humongous balls,and a big dick.It like a whole handful !' :joy:

The 'Butt Spurt' vid,is is a close 2nd ,because of the opposite but really fascinating aspect of the mid-section with Matt's near 'silence',this time around,just after his 'dont be bashful' utterance,when he examines Rhett's large underhanging package (from the rear,this time) !:p
This morning,rewatched these two vids,again,plus his combo with his then best friend Nathan in the Hotel Suite;and after so many years,they seems better than ever ! 👍👌
