@quinsedlethorpid if somebody said "hey will pay you a gang of cash to sit in a chair an be on tv" would you do it ? plus hes friends with Spike Jonze the director thats how hes even in this commercial
notice in the commercial,its not mentioned once that hes a pro skater. No hi im Mark Gonzales Pro skater, no non of that, its just as if he were any other actor
the world needs more commercials like this. it seems most commercials just list a bunch of boring facts about a product, but this actually keeps your attention.
@BurritoDiablo cus its Spike Jonze, hes the one who did Girl: Yeah Right and i believe that proper old Blind video with the Gonz, Jason Lee and Danny Way
gonz never did drugs. he smokes cigars but, read his interview he had in Thrasher way back when he was eighteen. he said how people thought he did drugs, but he said he didn't. regardless it's an amazing interview, anyone who skates should read it.
it's a spike jonze commercial. Gonz isn't selling out for those who think he is, or for those of you that think this is just gonz pursuing his acting career. They're long time buddy's.
This is NOT an endorsement. Over the years Gonz has had a small acting career and as a person experienced with rolling down city hills on a 4-wheeled object, he fit the bill. Otherwise and retrospectively, this is strait up hilarious.
this is not selling out. nowhere in the commercial does it even say his name. The only people who really know who he is are skateboarders, and its not like theres thousands of skateboarders buying brandnew trucks anyways.
wtf. hell no hes no sell out, pretty sure spike just said be in my commercial. and he said ok. and then did some weird shit like usual. and they are definitely not using his fame at all there wasnt even a skateboard or skateboard attire anywhere near him
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Ok, thats not Gonz. If you pause it at 0:35 it's pretty obvious that its not him although it does look like him. Plus why would they use him and not even reference the fact that he's a skate legend?
that is 100% the Gonz... did you notice who directed this commercial? Spike Jonze... yeah... its the gonz, granted a few years ago but still the gonz.
This is the Gonz whether or not people want to accept it. Spike Jonze is a big-time director now, and he started his career by being the filmer for Blind back when they first started. Gonz and Jonze are both close friends, so this makes sense to anyone that knows anything about skateboarding. And Gonz isn't THAT old for christ's sake! Under the beard, he hasn't aged that much.
the commercial doesn't have to have been made now. someone can make a commercial and then years later it's psted here. i can't believe i even replied to this retard.
this commercial is directed by Spike Jonze, who was the filmer for blind skateboards(which Gonz owned) they are old friends and this is definitely him, plus, the gonz isn't that old, hes in his 30s... and he was semi clean shaven in this commercial.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
i dont know about that, that just might be a Mark Gonzalez 'look alike', i mean there are poeple in this world that really do look like other people, nah, that's NOT Mark Gonzalez
i agree with you man...he can do what he likes but addidas and now nissan....great skater but what the fuck have these companies ever had to do with skating untill they cud rip it off to sell there stuff.
well... actually kids use to skate pumas and converse and nikes addidas... but these compayns only got into skateboarding for the profit and nothing else. and yes mark kindof is a sell out.
You are seriously economically retarded man. You think there is one company out there that ruled out profit ENTIRELY upon starting the business? And for your information, Mark is in this commercial because the director is his friend and also filmed a little flick called "Video Days". If you knew jack shit about skating, you might have already known that.
It could have been anyone playing his part in the commercial. I don't think that they were using his fame as a professional skateboarder to market their trucks. Mark Gonzales is not a household name. Probably 97% of the people who watched this commercial have no idea who the guy in the chair is in real life. Even a lot of skateboarders probably didn't make the connection.
yup, this seems fair. He's just an actor paying the rent. nissan are not using his skate legend status, just his friendly face. No way are ageing skaters nissan's demographic.
Thanks, Mark! I contacted 'Nissancommercials' and they gave me the link; this is one of my all-time faves, and I'm glad to find it and to be able to share!
