British actor Cavill to don Superman's cape
Last Updated: Monday, January 31, 2011 | 10:34 AM ET CBC News

Henry Cavill, perhaps best known from TV's racy historical series The Tudors, has landed the role of Superman in a forthcoming reboot of the superhero film franchise.

The British actor, who portrayed Henry VIII's friend and brother-in-law Charles Brandon on The Tudors, will star as both The Man of Steel and his mild-mannered alter ego, Clark Kent, in a Warner Bros. film slated for release in December 2012.

No official title has been released for the movie, which will be directed by Zach Snyder and produced by Christopher Nolan, who successfully revived the Batman franchise.

"In the pantheon of superheroes, Superman is the most recognised and revered character of all time, and I am honoured to be a part of his return to the big screen," Snyder said.

He also praised Cavill as "the perfect choice to don the cape and 'S' shield."

Cavill, 27, had been a lead candidate for Superman Returns, the last cinematic attempt at the Superman tale. However, a switch in directors (from McG to Bryan Singer) ultimately resulted in the casting of actor Brandon Routh for the 2006 film.
Good choice. Henry is very talented and also very easy on the eyes.

Stretching the Weekend Out

Here's something to set the start of the weekend off right:

I'm looking forward to the Rubber Invasion and contest at Pumpjack tomorrow night. I think I might misbehave a little bit this weekend.

Beautiful

From OOZE, a great blog that I'm just starting to browse through! :)

The boy looks good in tight pants

...and we're so lucky for that fact!

There's currently a campaign underway to get Jake Shears and the Scissor Sisters on Glee here!

LOL

Gaga for Mugler

How do I become an interviewer?

Not that relevant to the blog, but Tom Ford makes a good point...I'd sure like to see him naked! This post is just an excuse to post gratuitous photos of Tom Ford. *sigh* LOVE Tom Ford...

Tom Ford discusses giving interviews in the nude, with Interview:

"Someone asked me recently about male nudity, and I brought up the subject that, in our culture, we use female nudity to sell everything. We’re very comfortable objectifying women. Women go out and they are basically wearing nothing. Their feet and toes are exposed, their legs are exposed, their breasts are exposed. Everything is exposed—the neck, the arms. You have to be really physically perfect, as a woman, in our culture to be considered beautiful.

Ford But full frontal male nudity challenges us. It makes men nervous. It makes women nervous. Other times in history, male nudes have been regarded in a different way. The Olympics were originally held nude. The reporter I was explaining this to said, 'This would make a great story.' I explained how when I come home I actually take off all my clothes, and I wear no clothes until I leave. I eat naked. I do everything completely naked. He said, 'That would make a great interview.' I said, 'Fine, we have to do it nude.'"

He was in very good shape. Anyway, we did the interview. The interviewer was straight, and I made it a point to desexualize the interview even though I was sitting with my legs wide open, completely naked. At the end of the interview, I put on a dressing gown and he put on his clothes, and I sat next to him on the sofa and said, “Was that sexual?” He said, “Absolutely not.” And I said, “That’s because I didn’t make it sexual. Sexuality is in the eyes, it’s an expression, it’s in a look.” Then, all of a sudden, I looked at him in a very different way, and it made him very nervous.

Rubberstud of the Week #143

Rubber Invasion January 29th

January 29th will be the second of a series of "Show Your Stuff" contests at Pumpjack Pub in Davie Village in Vancouver.  The contest on the 29th will be a rubber contest.  All rubbermen in the area are encouraged to shine up and come on down!  In addition to the contest, there may be demos and draws.  See you there!

Blast will be going out tomorrow on Facebook.  Who's the sexy white rubberman in the background? ;)

Priape Sex Issue

Priape's spring sex issue is out!  Always an entertaining read.  In a world of virtual-ness, it is a nice treat to be able to open a catalog, absorb the visuals and squirt all over the pages! LOL

Zentai Viking

Okay, Zentai Viking Brown is simply amazing.  A zentai lover, superfit and into martial arts.  I think I creamed myself a bit watching these vids!


It's amazing the people I've already met on Facebook! :D

Freaky for Facebook

I finally decided to start up a new profile on Facebook for my rubbery side.  Many people had suggested it before (especially since my run-in with my mother regarding the West Coast Rubber pics that were posted there in the fall...without filters!) but I finally did it this week.  In addition to my real profile on Facebook, I now have a profile as Matt Speedoguru.  Remember that name?  It's been awhile.

For some reason, Facebook wouldn't accept Rubber Canuck as a legitimate name....hmmm.  I tried to change it again but their morality police have the upper hand.

I'm trying to be careful with what gets posted.  As much as I've seen a few cocks and asses in some other FBers' photo albums, I don't want to draw any attention to myself on there.


Find me! Friend me!  I hope to meet a bunch of people on FB that aren't on the other sites. I'm already amazed by the amount of people that I've found.  This is going to be the fun profile, simply friending, chatting and meeting new people.  I've already posted a bunch of pics and filled out the profile with some interesting shit.

How To Build the Perfect Mummy

Once again, Collector2 is a busy perv.  He recently had some fun turning Hazmatgear into a colourful mummy.  Here are the results!

I hope he'll agree to do a couple of demos at Rubbout this year! I think there'd be a lot of benefit in showing a bunch of pervy guys how to properly and comfortably mummify someone.  It's a very hot and fun activity.

Rubbout at Taboo

A crew of us spent Friday evening and Saturday afternoon at the Taboo Naughty But Nice Sex Show at the Vancouver Convention Center last weekend.  The crowd was overwhelmingly straight, but it was noted that it was good to at least be visible there, to remind people that there is a gay kinky rubber crowd out there in their own city!

New Arrivals

The Invincible shirts showed up today! I was worried for awhile. The Royal Mail tracker says the package is still in the UK; obviously there system got messed up over the holidays. Nevertheless, I have these new great pieces in my collection now; I can't wait to wear them out! :D
Here's the new LS shirt with my relatively new Polymorphe pants:

Same shirt with Priape leather pants:

..and the chevron tank with chaps and thong (unshined :( ):

Vader's Fist

Okay, so the alternate title of this group made me pay attention(!)

So call me naive. And impressed, once again by the sheer variety of passionate and kinky people pursuing their passions and kinks.

A friend of mine who is really into full coverage gear (Hazmat suits, drysuits, etc.) directed me to this site, a fansite for Star Wars cosplay and discussion. Lots of charity work is done by this group, the 501st Legion. Pretty impressive stuff! Love the gear, love the geekiness-cum-sexiness-cum-masculinity aspect of it. I would like to investigate this site out more to find out what all these people are up to! :)

Mr. D always shows me such interesting things...

Living the Rubber Life

3XL is a blogger who I'm happy to say I have the honor of writing with on the Lust Love Latex blog. For some time he has been writing a book on the latex lifestyle called Rubber Life. I'm looking forward to reading what he has to say! If there's anyone who should be writing on this topic, it's him!

3XL's own words from the Lust Love Latex blog:

Many people have asked why it is so important to write a book about latex fetishism. The fact is that there are a large number of people who are walking around with a love for latex but who are too embarrassed or uncomfortable to talk about it.

There are a lot of misconceptions out there about latex fetishism. Those misconceptions are what make many people feel that they are unable to talk to their friends and loved ones about what makes them tick at a very deep level. They may worry that they will lose the relationships that mean the most to them and open themselves up to sadness and ridicule.

There is a wealth of information out there that people who are living with a latex fetish need to know about but which, until now, has been unavailable. It can be helpful for many people to know where their love for this amazing material comes from and that it can be triggered by very normal, very healthy experiences in their lives. They need to know about the various practices which may or may not go along with their fetish and safety tips that go along with some of these activities. A person who is interested in living a latex lifestyle also needs to know how to find the clothing and accessories that make their blood race and learn how to connect with likeminded people both online and at events around the world.

Regardless of whether you are someone who has been living openly with their fetish for years or you are someone who is taking the first steps towards self-acceptance and happiness, my book is full of positive and practical suggestions on many aspects of a rubber lifestyle. From tips on how to introduce the topic to an existing partner to finding a new partner who shares your love for latex, the book can be a great tool for anyone who is interested in latex.

I knows first-hand how important information like this can be. I lived for years with my latex fetish. My particular attraction to latex began in my early teens as a response to wearing rubber rainwear. I began to dream and fantasize about latex in general as well as the people that wore it. Since I did not have any resources about latex, it took me years to fully accept my fetish and to learn how to live openly with it.

My book is designed to help others, who are in the same position as I was in, learn about their fetish, accept that fetish and incorporate it into their daily lives.

Rubber Life is due to come out this week! If you want me to contact you as soon as it is out and even get a discount, then be sure to sign up for the early announcement list at RubberLife.com!

Rubberstud of the Week #142

Glut

Here it is a few weekends after the holidays and we end up with a Saturday with way too many things for the kink community to do. I don't think many of the organizers talked to each other about the dates of their events, but certainly everyone felt like there was a need to kick off 2011 right! :)

The organizers of Rubbout have been guerilla marketing at the Vancouver Taboo Naughty but Nice Sex Show at the Vancouver Convention Centre. I was rubbered up and floating around there yesterday but there wasn't much of our target market floating around the convention halls. I'm going back today with a couple of friends to see if the demographics of the show have gayed up a bit. I'll have some pics of that to post tomorrow.

Last night we went to the Vancouver Men in Leather Shiny Leather party at Numbers then back to Pumpjack.

Tonight is the busy night. The first 'Show Your Stuff' contest takes place at Pumpjack. Tonight is leather, Tolliver is hosting. Vancouver Men in Leather have teamed up with PCAN (Pacific-Canadian Association of Nudists) for a 'Leather or Less' Party at WISE Hall, and Noir Fetish Ball at the Cobalt. The Noir party is supposed to be going on on the third Saturday of every month...I am not sure if that's conflicting with Sin City? Why would they schedule this to compete, I'm not sure. At any rate, there's a lot of stuff to rubber up for and choose from this weekend!

I guess Mitch told the owners of Pumpjack that they we were going to do a rubber invasion at the Blackout Night on the 29th (also the next 'Show Your Stuff', now they're marketing it as a Rubber Invasion! How funny is that? That's two weekends from now; there's also a 'Fetish Unrestricted' Sin City going on next weekend (they're on the first and third Saturdays of the month, always with a theme!). Lots to do - I love it!

Hot Red Rubberman

Erav2000's new vid on Xtube is HOT! This guy's bod was built for nice tight latex. Not a fold to be found in that rubber...fucking big shot too.

Amazing finds in the back alley

A week or so ago, Mr. P was coming back to his place and noticed a strange item sitting on the curb outside his building.  He told me he thought it was a sling board, which of course piqued my interest so I went out to investigate.  It appears someone had had this stored away for some time and decided to toss it out. I grabbed it and even though it isn't exactly built to specifications I would ask for, it's a neat find, and after a visit to Home Depot yesterday, it looks like it'll be a great addition to the sling inventory!  It's interesting what you can find just outside your door if you're looking for it. The biggest issue now might be that I'm having a hard time finding places to store all my kinky stuff in my tiny apartment (and yes, I realize all of you are collectively thinking, "aw, poor you!" lol).

Also today I received a package from a friend. If you recall, I played with and did the demon mask and SPFX videos with a sexy guy several years ago. We'd been in touch again recently and due to personal reasons is moving out of fetishland. He offered to send me the demon masks knowing that I'd put them to good use. They showed up today! I need to give him a great big rubbery hug for thinking of me. Maybe it was more a payment to get me out of his hair, I'm not sure...

Thought of the day: If I ever have to listen to another Bel Ami soundtrack, I'll kill myself. Piano, sax and acoustic guitar while fucking? Give me a break!

Real-Life Superhero Stops Car Robbery

For some reason YouTube Share isn't working right for blogger. The video is at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KcUvJBumFZo

Did you hear about this one? I imagine it was a bit of a surprise to the couple, but in this paranoid, knee-jerk society we live in today, it seems that anything is open to misinterpretation.

Panic reigned in the German town of Guzenberg, when police announced that the town of 20,000 was undergoing a terrorist biological weapon and/or poison gas attack!

Don’t worry, there was no such attack, Al Qaeda wasn’t looking to destroy the nearby LegoLand theme park (they hate our freedom...and our legos).

What caused the hysteria? Bystanders saw a man in a gas mask and plastic suit rolling around in the snow, so they assumed he was an official decked out in gear to protect him from gas or biological weapons, and that he had fallen victim to an attack. The bystanders called the police who put out an alert that the terrorists had come for their plastic-building-block Disney Land rip-off.

But when the police caught up with the gas masked man, they discovered there was no threat, he was just a kinky “sex slave” ordered by his dominatrix to go outside and roll around in the cold in a pvc catsuit and gasmask as a sexual “punishment”. When order was restored, the gimp and his mistress were not charged with any crime, they got off with a warning about how their actions could be interpreted in public.

The final word on the matter, comes from one of the officers: “I guess any punishment we could come up with just wouldn’t compare to what he’s used to.”

Oh SNAP!

Nice...black and tight, rub one out

Rubberstud of the Week #141

A Day At the Office

So, back to work, ugh. I don't particularly like my job in its current incarnation but I do love my working situation. I've been a telecommuter for several years now, with my home office in Calgary, my accounts in Toronto and Ottawa, while living in Vancouver. This is the life of an IT worker. I miss the networking and connections that working in an office provides, but I certainly do not miss the commute and the bureaucratic bullshit, which I can hide from most of the time (there's just lil' ol' me on the West Coast in the whole scope of things). I have many time zones to consider during the working day but I am usually on-call anyways.

So, working at home allows me a bit of freedom.

1. I do not follow standard attire rules. Semi-formal and tie? Well, only if it is made of latex. Just kidding....I end up wearing my rubber to the home office almost every day.
2. Usage of company assets for business purposes? So be it, fortunately I have my home computer and work computer typically sitting side-by-side. Chat, email, Recon, Gearfetish, Facebook, BLOGGER and XVideos/Xtube are running a various points of the day very close to my fingertips.

And yes, sometimes I do get work done....!

People have asked me whether I have 'visitors' over during the work day. I used to on occasion, but since I've started regularly dating I haven't really needed to. I also used to start work at 6am to tie into Eastern Time Zone but that lasted only a couple of weeks! 6am? Fuck that! Originally I thought it was a great idea to wrap up work at 2pm, have guys over or head to Wreck Beach, but 6am was just too gross. I might try again in the spring when it might be worthwhile again.

Mr. P loves sex and he calls me his 'power bottom'...that made it into a Facebook status update after he spent Monday fortifying his questionably-durable Ikea bed frame. He even emailed Ikea to tell them they needed to test their bed frames more vigorously and figured that I should become an official bedframe tester for them! I'm all horned up after watching porn and wearing rubber at work all day while he's toiling away in various parts of the city. The biggest obstacle to non-stop romping is that he's sometimes too tired in the evenings to top, the old man he is.

And that's my workweek in a nutshell. Any more reports to submit?
