Like him or hate him, Michael Lucas makes some good films (minus “Farts”)
Like “Return to Fire Island” but seems to be missing from the Grabbys nominations year after year. This year he is only listed for “The Intern” in People’s Choice Awards.
Lucas says that he no longer is submitting his films for Grabby consideration because he got tired of hearing the show’s producers claim that they don’t receive his screener in time. Many have speculated that the Grabbys exclude Lucas from the nominees because of a 2003 onstage rant he made against Grabby Awards owners Gay Chicago Magazine for honoring controversial porn agent (and former inmate) David Forest with a Best Non-Sex Performance award. (Lucas, of course, thinks Forest is a bad seed in the industry, and says that everyone should shun him accordingly. If this sounds like déja vu, it's because Lucas did something similar at this year's GayVN Awards.
Gay Chicago's editor, Mark Nagle is matter-of-fact about the issue. "Lucas Entertainment does not submit movies to us, so it just means we do not review his movies; nothing more, nothing less. This year's list of nominations, I think, is one of the most well rounded. The problem is that we only nominate between six to eight in each category so someone will be left out. There are so many good performances but we just try and do our best!"
Some of the other nominations for Best Films are our favorites, Falcon’s “Best Men 1 & 2” and Raging Stallion “To The Last Man” and my personal favorite from Jett Blakk and Dirty Bird Pictures “Endgame”.
