So what ever happen to Graham who post upcoming Elegant Angel movies for us members. The last time he posted here was I think in January, did he left EA or did he took an short break?
I'd like to know what's happening at Elegant Angel full stop, there seem to be a lot of changes happening and I'm not getting a good vibe. William H seems to have jumped ship to Jules Jordan,Wet Asses not very original, dropping the Big. There was all that business with Asa Akira being brought in to do the next Gangbang, does that mean Mason has jumped ship too? Plus the news content being released on the EA community website seems to have dried up and there's very little news about any new releases. Something's obviously going on at EA, and it doesn't look like it's good. Nothing says romance like anal sex.
I have no idea but we also have to remember porn stars as well as Directors are only human and could be going through some problems like the rest of us have to deal with be it family/friend issues that might be affecting them and there is no obligation for Graham to post on ADT so we should always be grateful for the presence of porn stars and Directors on these forums and as with Graham's case you don't know what you're missing until it's gone... Best wishes Graham if you do get to read this and always enjoyed the EA movies :)
I agree, the only person who is on ADT from Elegant is LT. He doesn't have any new movies this month too. I know he is an busy person just like folks who work in the industry, but they take there time to respond to fans on this board. Also the EA Podcast haven't been updated too, it's also have to do the fact that the industry is facing the condom issue in the state, and the tube site. 6 years ago there were 30 porn companies, today there are about 10 I think.
What is the motivation behind this? I felt Elegant Angel had become the pre-eminent porn company and JJ had gone downhill and become decidedly over priced. Does EA have new owners or something? Nothing says romance like anal sex.
Hey guys, We have not hired Graham, only William H. I think Graham is a great guy.

Thank Jules for clearing thing up, as for Graham it suck that he is gone, also the Elegant Angel Podcast haven't been updated too. The last one was on May 7, and no updated on there Twitter too. BTW I have a thread on Upcoming EA movies if anyone would like to post picture, post trailer of upcoming movies. Edited by - Infamous on 6/7/2013 12:27:01 PM
^ yes it is , due to the weight of too many directors lining up to get hired as for Graham there's no evidence for Graham leaving I don't know why people keep saying this , they said the same for Mason , but then MIA was issued ,guess who is the director? obviously there's some problem at EA ,when William H left them he also forced major rearrangements in the company , not only changing directors (for example hiring Asa Akire for the Gangbanged series ) because the others have to cover the loss , but also rearranging their lines, who will cover the Big Wet Butt line? Especially they have to consider that William is doing something very similar for JJ (Wet Butt series) so they have to consider what WH fans will do , they need to maintain the series at least as good as they were competing with its creator or abandon it and create something new, something as valuable as BWT. Unfortunately Dana Vespoli has been already hired elsewhere.
^ Yet no rumour about Mason leaving Elegant Angel has been confirmed

How do you know that because we don't know yet. Why don't you ask LT because he is with them he will give you the best answer instead of jumping to conclusions because you or we don't know that yet.

William H. isn't the Big Wet Asses series creator, the first five installments weren't directed by him. He did something very similar to the previous directors. Edited by - vrakenbaq on 6/8/2013 12:53:50 AM
^ I didn't say he created the series , I said he set a standard difficult to match , he has fans who very likely will follow him, wouldn't be smart to compete with him on his field.How do you know that because we don't know yet. Why don't you ask LT because he is with them he will give you the best answer instead of jumping to conclusions because you or we don't know that yet.

Are you nuts? it's you who jumped to conclusion and me the one saying we don't know anything yet , and I didn't speculate , I made some supposition about why Graham is not coming here. As for LT I do post in his thread and he said nothing. are you saying he told you Graham quit? because man you are saying he left EA in more than one thread, such as this exchange on porn news
This really looks like speculation to me, and yet you say to ME to stop making assumption and get real news from LT this is a joke right? where's the camera?

^^ @LCF - Don't let InFamous get to you. He LOVES to throw things out and when someone disagrees with him he either calls them names (the mods had to tell him to stop this)or says the other poster is the one making things up. I know that you don't mind when someone has a different opinion then yours but with some people you just have to disengage. You're a much better poster then him anyway.
Teal Conrad posted on her twitter today that she "was excited for Asa Akira to shoot her for Elegant Angel this week." I would guess they are still shooting.

Seriously, I don't think EA is going to stop shooting.
If I remember correctly, in of the articles about Asa directing Gangbanged 6 I think she mentioned shooting a g/g flick for EA too. Maybe EA will continue for years to come or maybe it's the end of the line once Asa has finished shooting her second flick.

3 of there top directors William H, Mason and LT are gone, but do you think Collins sold it to Manwin? I hope not because they are killing porn.

^ I don't know but who know because Collins would never sale Elegant to Manwin. Some companies like Jules Jordan, Evil Angel, Vivid, Bang Bros and ever Elegant are against Manwin. I'm jus saying that it not true but I have an funny feeling bout it. Edited by - Infamous on 6/18/2013 1:19:04 AM
Jules Jordan is associate with Manwin he's not against them at all and I would find amusing to say the least that some directors formerly at EA would join JJV to avoid Manwin
^ No love loss between Jules and Manwin from April 2012: Jules Jordan Video Files $5M Suit Against Manwin, Former GM Scott Justice CHATSWORTH, Calif. — In a suit seeking in excess of $5 million in damages, Jules Jordan Video Inc. claims Manwin and its former general manager conspired to steal its distribution business by lifting proprietary information, destroying data and poaching key staff.
I believe Graham is no longer with Elegant, due to a post on their blog from April 26, 2013. It is the post after they won a bunch of XRCO Awards. I took this directly from the post "Wasteland," emphasizes Collins, "was a movie that was extremely well-written (which is why Graham's dream of becoming a professional writer is clearly his calling, and one I believe he will be hugely successful at).
Think about it, if Graham was there he could comment on him winning awards not Patrick commenting. Patrick also comments that the company is in a transitional period. Here's a link to the post I took it from: http://community.elegantangel.com/community/2013/04/elegant-angel-wins-big-at-this-years-xrco-awards-including-best-release-wasteland.html#more Also William H and Graham are definitely 2 different people, that is a fact. So sadly, I think Graham has moved on, whether or not he is still working or will be working in the adult industry I don't know but where evever he is I wish him the best of luck in all future endeavors.
^It's just Patrick's view of "Wasteland" winning awards. That doesn't necessarily mean that Graham has left. As the owner of EA, Patrick is expected to comment on the movie. Here is another quote from that post: "Wasteland was perfect. Therefore, Lily Carter certainly deserves the award for Best Actress, as does Graham for Best Director, as do all of the other people who were involved in making this production what I consider to be the best production ever to come out of this company." I have to agree with him on the movie.
I just wanna know where Graham is! I wish him loads of Sometimes change is good.

Well there Twitter page haven't been updated and there podcast too. I remember 4 years ago Elegant was the top company, and now it's not. With LT gone who will shoot some of the IR and black porn there because this will hurt most of the black girls in porn. I hope Elegant can get Prince to replace LT.
