Florida Award Show Honors Director
(Hollywood, CA) Adult movie director Will Ryder wasn’t going to let a little thing like a hurricane cancel his trip to Florida for the NightMoves Award Show and good thing he didn’t as he was showered with a steady downpour of trophies including a Hall of Fame induction.
The NightMoves show is the third longest-running adult entertainment awards show behind only the AVN Awards and XRCO Awards so getting to Tampa for the 24th anniversary was important to the director/producer that revolutionized the porn parody.
“I had a hell of a time getting there as my connecting flight from Chicago flew off before I even landed so I had to walk around O’Hare for 13 hours,” Ryder said. “I felt like Tom Hanks in the movie Terminal but I was afraid to get a hotel room because my flight was rescheduled for 7AM the next morning and I knew I would miss it if I got a room and felt tempted to maybe call up Hillary Scott and invite her over for a reunion dinner.”
Good thing the director didn’t let sex get in the way because he was rewarded with four NightMoves awards including trophies for Best Feature Production- Love, Sex & TV News (Adam & Eve), Best Director Parody, the HOF and a prestigious First Choice winner for the just released Not Traci Lords XXX ’80s Superstars Reborn (X-Play/Pulse) https://youtu.be/32N0Z_O9AD0
“I never said I didn’t call Hillary Scott because I did, but she pretty much mumbled something like “yeah right go fuck yourself” or something like that so I wandered aimlessly through the sprawling airport in search of a good spot to sleep,” Ryder joked. “I was a bit bleary-eyed the next morning when I found myself talking to Dog The Bounty Hunter. I wasn’t sure if I was dreaming or if that really took place but there’s a photo on my phone so I guess it did.”
The award show was a culmination of four days and nights of strippers, porn stars and various amounts of beer so it was a climactic moment when Ryder learned that his friend and fellow movie director Axel Braun would not be making the trip.
“Maybe that’s why I won so many awards,” Ryder smiled.
“Will Ryder and Axel Braun are two of our most awarded adult movie celebrities so it was really great when Will made the trip,” stated Art Koch of NightMoves.
“Art is a great guy with that deep radio-ready voice and he’s always been very supportive of the movies Scott David (X-Play co-producer) and I make,” Ryder added.
“In fact the entire NightMoves crew including Paul and Tracy Allen, Art, Lenny Mumbles, Drew Rock and the rest of the NightMoves staff were great and we had a wonderful time staying on the beautiful Tampa Bay and going to more strip joints than any man deserves.”
Among the many porn stars hanging out with Ryder included Misty Stone, Rebel Lynn, Tory Lane, Lauren Phillips, Carmen Valentina, Jillian Janson, Luna Star, Alana Luv, Lolly Ink, Natasha Starr, Katie Morgan, Vicky Vette, Gia Nova, Kenzie Taylor, Adria Rae, Kendra Sunderland, Lelu Love, Layton Benton, Evan Stone, Seth Gamble, Flynt Dominick, James Bartholet and Ron Jeremy.
“It was a really fun few days in Florida but I hope they have the next one in Los Angeles because I don’t think I can take on any hurricanes anymore,” Ryder joked.
Will Ryder wants to remind everyone that the big adult industry Heaven & Hell Halloween bash will take place Saturday, October 29th at the W Hotel in Hollywood 10PM.
“I hope to see everyone at the W.
