See if you can identify the 13-year-old kid in this Bubble Yum commercial.
He would eventually win an Academy Award in 2016 for a movie titled The Revenant.
His name?
Leonardo DiCaprio.
Then there's this 13-year-old kid who starred in a commercial for a video game called Pitfall.
His name is Jack Black.
It was his very first acting gig.
Then there's this teenager in a McDonald's commercial.
That's Nev Campbell in one of her first acting jobs.
And I worked on a commercial starring Nev for crunchy chocolate bars before she was famous.
Commercials have given a lot of good actors their start in the business.
At EliIsGreat asks a question that really made me stop and think.
Have any of your opinions on advertising changed since starting this show?
Hmm.
Since starting the show 21 years ago, we have received a mountain of emails from listeners.
And this may sound odd, but I have fully come to appreciate how much people hate bad advertising.
I always knew there was bad advertising, of course.
But I've come to realize how damaging bad ads are to, first, the advertiser, and second, to the industry.
So many people write us saying they will never buy the product that is advertised in bad commercials.
They don't just hate the ad.
