Brandon, you should be paid what you are owed.
Go After these guys. You are far from being passive agreesive. Your a guy that is not being treated fairly and voicing your opinion. Good For You!!!!
RLD, Plat X, Candy Shop, and Amateur District under David Joseph's leadership has tried to take advantage of a number of people. Some of those people took solace in litigation and were extremely successful before trial started. It seems when the mention of a forensic accounting, court ordered audits, and disclosure of assets comes in, Mr. Joseph gets out his checkbook.
Its a shame they ( RLD, et. al) try to get rid of and srew over the decent directors and keep people like Strong, Mr. Pete and Cuba around.
As many of you out there in the Valley may or may not know Ralph and David are high school friends and share many secrets. With all of the recent actions (out of court settlement) and future actions about to be filed involving RLD it appears that this transfer of assets is more a magic trick rather than an actual sale.
Since Ralph's public admission of Ownership of Plat X, I have been checking with various states corporations boards and have not seen any change of board of directors or change in corporate officers documents filed as of yet. As of today there was no change in the the IRS Federal Tax Identification Number for Plat X registraion.
Ralph what are you thinking with making "d snoop" a director? You must be getting a "contact high" from Mr. Pete and "d Snoop". It just goes to prove you need zero skills sets to be a director for you and Plat X. Or just you have to roll with Mr. Pete and get his endorsement (not that his skill sets are way up there either). You take a guy whom female talent has complained about and reward him as a director (I can see the lawsuits now). Is Plat X going to offer a "gang-banger" line of titles now starring the "CRIPS AND BLOODS".

I know Mr. Pete and DSnoop better than you. You can say whatever you want about their work but they are decent guys as far as I'm concerned.
My mouth has always got me in trouble but it comes from expecting people not to fuck with me or my way of making a living. I delivered good movies paid for out of my own pocket and they sold well. In return, I was slow-payed or no-payed until it comes to the point where I can go fuck myself instead of collecting what's mine.
Things happen. You can't make someone treat you fairly. Life goes on. I didn't expect to be begging for my own money but it's just how some people do business. On the plus side, I was able to collect a portion of July's collected money. I have no idea when the balance will be paid but I am hoping sooner than later.

Dude, seriously, get yourself a lawyer. Probably, just filing a lawsuit will fix the problem. The money should magically appear once they know you're serious.

and to Chode you reveal your own flawed logic you say:
"like you are trying to prove Jesus existed"???
Jesus of Nazerith was a real man that is not in question. The questions is, Christians believe he is the son of God, while non-Christians like myself do not believe so.

Brandon, as far as those two are concerned I know a lot about them as much if not more than you. Unfortunately our opinions differ on this topic. But then that's the great thing about our country is it not?????
I have learned many things (professionally and personally) about what's going on and not going on at RLD/PLAT X and all the players involved there.
You are right: you do have a great reputation and put out a quality product and should have been paid without begging for it. Don't lump yourself in with these guys you are truly a cut above them. You have my professional respect.
The only benefit I can share with you at this point is "what goes around comes around" and Mr. Joseph/RLD will find out what Bad Karma is all about eventually. RLD has tried to leave too many bodies around uncovered.
RLD can't keep screwing over decent people and not expect it to have an adverse effect.
Hope you get your money you deserve it. Take care. Best wishes.

Thank you Brandon for your defense. If anybody knows about me its you, you've always pushed my name. I really don't understand all the hate. I never claimed to be the best. Why do i get dragged into these porno beefs? I just make my movies and try to connect with the girls. If you don't like me then just pick up something else. Movies are released everyday from different companies. I've been performing for 7 yrs and most of the people i work for have alot of love for me. Not to metion the girls ,98% enjoy me cause Im a mellow dude. I love what i do, just like some who love to hate. I don't remember ever talking about negative stuff. Stay good everyone, and always remember good people do exist!

try not to confuse the facts for hate. they are totally different things. facts are tangible and hate is subjective.
Statistics are only as good as the data and the agenda of the person that complies the data.
Maybe its the company you keep thats drawing all of the negitive attention.

Yeah they dispute things he did or that he is the son of God, whic is a criticism I agree with. To say he didn't exist is ridiculous. Its written in Roman reccords and many other sources.
I don't know why you have the violin weeping I am not even an active Christian, be he was a person. The apostles definately agrandized him though.

And if Mary Magdalene were around today, she could star in the return of the Bakers Dozen and A Good Source Of Iron series.

Jesus and the 12 disciples made a baker's dozen when she was new. Now she's definitely in the MILF category, which I know isn't your favorite slice of cake, but I thought you might make an exception since she would be following the trend of Paris and other mainstream celebrities. You could cash in on that whole trend. If Jesus did a good enough job breaking her in and showing her the ropes, she should be able to show you a damn good time.
If you like, I can provide contact info after I'm done with her.

I think I heard about her. She had problems with her ids. In fact, she had no photo id whatsoever. It was a real pain in the ass and the FBI guy said something about stone tablets not being a valid id. I think I'll pass. Now where's that donkey on which they rode into Bethlehem? I have work.

Hey Pete your Throat Gaggers 12 was so bad. The early volumes had really pretty girls. #2 had some girls that could be models. By the time 11 and 12 rolled around it was straight trash.
Yours especially Pete. Bad Locations, ugly girls, bad head, overall shit. Not trying to be mean just giving some feddback.

I cant argue your point on that one. I did a bad job on that title. It was a tough one for me. So I handed it to Juan Cuba. But most other times I work hard sorry you didnt enjoy that one. It just wasnt my thing. So your kinda right!

why would you hand it off to Juan Cuba he shoots enough od his own crap. Handing off scenes or movies is a regualr practice for you now I'M told. didnt you hand off one of the "Mommie Knows Best" series DVD's. That wasnt your cup of tea either.
What's with the Pitty statement "most the time i do my best"
Sounds like the eddy murphy statement " if you get caught say it wasn't me and keep saying it" sooner or later you will get someone to believe it. Not.
I love all of the biblical refernces. Too cool.
Here's one from a guy that wrote a self help bible. "excuses are the gloves incompetant people put their hands in"

Well I don't know where to start, as far Throat Gaggers #12 is concerned. I shot the whole thing. And got great reviews from AVN. After I was done with the project I learned that it was a nightmare to book. So I asked if someone else could shoot it. Therefore Juan took it over. Now, say want you want about Juan but works hard. Other than that Ive never handed anything off. Momma Knows Best is one of the best sellers at Red Light and I will continue to shoot it. Now as far as the pitty statement, I need none, my life is good. I have everything I need and want. The Defense rest his case! Please have wonderful holiday's. From Mr.Pete, no sarcasm here!

Pete, disregard ragingbull and Dragnet. They're pretty much resident douchefaces/trolls here and like to tell people their shit sucks or act like they know all kinds of shit about the industry when they don't. Given the chance, I'm sure they wouldn't be anywhere near able to direct/shoot/produce/ect a film. Don't worry about them.

Ok, here's the deal. I am not a "troll" I chose to give my opinion. You only say postive things about people in the industry. That is lame. Most porn produced is trash shot on 3k cameras and with grils who are their to cover the rent. So please just allow me to speak my mind.
And Pete's movies suck, the amateur movies I have made in Vegas and with girls I dated are better then a lot of his shit. He also has a really lame personal style, like a circa 1999 Eminem want-to-be.

ragingbull, Dragnet.
Consider both of yourselves warned. You can share your opinions, but not in the manner of immature internet flamers.
ragingbull, check out the last page and Steph's comments regarding trolling. If you've been warned yb mods and admins for trolling, you need to tone your posts down. "I'm not trolling" is not a defence.

My personal, non-mod opinion is that I don't enjoy watching Mr Pete as a performer, and that's entirely based on your appearance. Not my thing, but I don't begrudge you making your own films or working in the industry. I'm a big boy, and I can avoid your stuff if I don't want to watch it without acting like a douche towards you.

Hi Mr. Pete, I love the MOMMY KNOWS BEST RLD series intensely. Glad to hear you want to continue shooting it. My absolute favorites are vol. 1 and 3. The Vanessa Videl and Nina Hartley scenes are masterpieces, and I was blown away by the Vanessa Videl BTS. Would you líke to shoot Sharon Kane and Keisha scenes for the series? Keisha is seldom mentioned as a MILF star. Also, would you like to do a MILF-MILF volume, MOMMA MEETS MOMMA-type, with some of your favorite MILFs returning in girl-girl scenes? I´ve seen a new series MOMMY & MOMMY announced, so the theme will hit the marketplace soon!

Today I've tried to visit their website: it doesn't run.
What's happened? They are once and for all out of business?
I loved their movies.

I can happily tell you that although Platinum X Pictures had a change in ownership causing a short lapse, it now has been and continues to be in production. It takes a while from shooing a movie to the release date but have no fear, production is moving along. I have a directing deal with them now and I've shot 2 scenes already for my upcoming release (no title as of yet). All I can say is so far the 2 scenes in the can are really hot!!! The couplings were really into each other and both girls actually came more than once and the heat between the performers is palpable. The first scene was Claudia Downs and Jean-Claude Batiste and of course me talking and playing with her and him throughout. It's sexy and ads a cool dimension to it. The second scene was Kissi Kapri and Steven French. He said the whole thing turned him on so much so I'm really excited for you guys to see it!!! It's only my voice and hands, nothing else but 2 nasty, slutty little girls getting it good!!! I'll tease you all more later but I think it's gonna be really hot!! XOXO

Honestly you never know who's really behind anything. Just buy the product you like, avoid the product you don't. Even when you were a kid you knew kermit wasn't a real frog, but you still watched the muppet show.
