How much it take for you to do an ED commercial?

Schmidty · 07-17-2009, 04:08 PM

I was watching a Levitra commercial, and saw looking guy professing proudly that he had Erectile Dysfunction. That must be embarrassing for the actor I would think. It would take a lot for me to take that gig. Probably like 100 grand.

So, how much for you?

And yes, I know this is a silly poll.

DanGarion · 07-17-2009, 04:11 PM

Picked $10,000. If I'm an actor I take the roles I can get. If people can't get over the fact that I'm acting, that's their problem.

Kodos · 07-17-2009, 04:15 PM

I voted for $50,000, but it'd take me a while to get it up (the nerve, that is).

JetsIn06 · 07-17-2009, 04:23 PM

Seriously? I would do this for like $500. I don't give a shit if other people think I can't get it up.

I guess if I was single, that would change it a little bit.

If I was single I'd want to be in one of the Maxoderm ones with all the porn stars!

Daimyo · 07-17-2009, 04:38 PM

I voted $10,000 assuming it would take less than 100 hours of my time. Any more than that and I'd have to adjust upward. Lying about ED doesn't phase me, I just want to make sure I'm getting proper value out of my time.

What he said, except I'll settle for a hundred bucks.

EDIT: Daimyo has a good point. Hundred bucks an hour.

Warhammer · 07-17-2009, 04:40 PM

Imagine the chicks you could pick up with the line, "Normally I need Levitra to get the night started right, but after seeing you I am cured."

I'm sure the line could be refined.

JediKooter · 07-17-2009, 04:42 PM

I'd ask for about 5K and residuals(sp?). That way, every time they show the commerical, I would be getting paid each time.

lordscarlet · 07-17-2009, 04:51 PM

I can't imagine anyone actually thinking you have ED because you were in one of the commercials.

I picked $10k.

I have a friend that played an abusive husband on a PSA and he's been accosted by angry women more than once demanding he stop beating his wife.

As for the money, I'd do it for national scale rate. Those actors are making quite a bit of money.

Do I get to sit in a bathtub in the middle of a field?

stevew · 07-17-2009, 05:48 PM

I always wondered what type of girls would say they had herpes in a commercial as well. As far as ED goes, well that's at least treatable. Herpes on the other hand......

Shit, I'd do it for scale plus residuals.

molson · 07-17-2009, 05:56 PM

I'd do it for free ED drugs.

thesloppy · 07-17-2009, 06:07 PM

On a related note, I think Extenze has the best commercials. First, any reputable product of any worth has a Z in its name, so you know it's good. Second, I trust implicitly any company/product that won't actually tell you directly what it does. I wish my doctor was like that.

DOC: Well, I'm sorry to telly you, you've got cancer in your...you know.
ME: What? Where?
DOC: In that certain part of the male anatomy.
ME: But, I have a lot of parts in my anatomy.

What about Bob Dole, or ....Damn the baseball player...first baseman...he went to school with Will Clark, they called themselves Thunder and Lightning...Steroid user, testifed before congress....why can't I think of his name.

Oh I'm voting Other. I want a lifetime supply of their product. Just because you don't need the assistance, is no reason not to artificially give yourself a three hour woody, and dare your significant other to make it go away.

Rafael Palmeiro is the name you're looking for

sterlingice · 07-17-2009, 06:16 PM

Is this "how much for you, poor schmuck who posts on a message board" or "how much for you, established actor" to do one of these ads?

Easily would do it for $10k. I'd even lie and say that I wasn't acting at the press conference for that.

I won't even tell you what I'd do for some of the other figures mentioned.

BYU 14 · 07-17-2009, 10:27 PM

I would do it a single for 10, but I voted 50 because I would sign a spokesman deal like Jared for Subway or that smiling Bob guy for that amount........And a lifetime supply of Cialis for my "troubles"

I'm single and I feel the same way. Hell, I could easily see how this could get a man more female attention, even if you play the angle that you really have ED.

ThunderingHERD · 07-17-2009, 10:37 PM

I'd do it for free--just for the story.

I'd do it for $35, and I'd shoot it myself AND put it on YouTube. If you want to test this, hit me up and I'll give you my Paypal info.

Chief Rum · 07-18-2009, 04:40 AM

I would do it on the cheap, so long as I got to pantomime the impending lovemaking by pointing at my commercial wife, the bedroom door and then doing repeated rhythmic pelvic thrusts.

I have to agree with Jets, being in a relationship, I would happily do this for 100 bucks. If I were single, I would want more money, because then I could spend it all on shit I want instead of "sharing" with the girl.. But dumb people thinking I have problems with blood flow would just be amusing.

Logan · 07-19-2009, 10:18 AM

Watching the British Open, pretty sure the guy in a Cialis commercial is the same guy who played Zack Morris' dad in Saved by the Bell.

If I ever ran into him, I'd ask him about buying a computer before I questioned his ability to get it up.

Grammaticus · 07-19-2009, 11:17 AM

Sure, 10K. It is just acting and I don't have an acting resume to support demanding more. But I would talk to an agent first.

Schmidty · 07-19-2009, 04:21 PM

I think the majority of you guys need a better agent.

Marc Vaughan · 07-19-2009, 06:46 PM

I'd do one for free if I thought it'd help people.

(Pele probably the best EVER soccer player in the world of any generation is an ED spokesperson these days incidentally)

M GO BLUE!!! · 07-19-2009, 10:52 PM

I just want to see Bill Clinton do a Viagra commercial.

"Inflation is up. Taxes are up. If nothing else is up, try Viagra."

Honolulu Blue · 07-20-2009, 09:03 AM

If I were an actor in real life, I'd do it for scale. I can't see it being a huge problem, as I could happily prove to anyone I met that it WASN'T a problem.

However...

Playing any kind of abusive person, drug pusher, or hardened criminal of any kind can be hazardous to your career and/or life outside the studios, and it might cost me more to play one of those roles.

RomaGoth · 07-20-2009, 12:32 PM

I would do it for $1 and a lifetime supply of hot chicks.
