He wasn't even that good as a child actor in the one movie he more or less starred in: Stand By Me. In that, he was completely overshadowed by River Phoenix, who was obviously brilliant even at 15.

Reiner got great perfomances out of all four of them, to be fair. But yes, it's been clear for many years that the wrong guy went to the Viper Room that night.
 
In defense, there are very few good child actors. Any good acting on their part is primarily a result of good direction and scripting.

It's why I don't so much hate Wheaton as I pity him. I never blamed him for Wesley; Christ, Wil was sixteen and working under Roddenberry, you think he had ANY input into the scripts or direction? Bullshit. But I DO fault him for his generally whiny demeanour and inability to move on after TNG.

@Ghostse mentioned Bruce Campbell, but I think he's mistaken; it was Evil Dead where Bruce had to work as a night watchman to pay the bills before the money came in (Source: If Chins Could Kill). Army of Darkness was notable because poor Bruce had to go on a substantial weight-loss and fitness regime for it to get back into shape as Ash (well... it worked). He also reminisced about how two extras wearing the skeleton costumes -- full body equipment, mind you -- somehow got it on during a quiet point in filming. Even Bruce was impressed.

Now, if you want to see Wil's head explode? Recast Wesley, and give the role to John Krazinski.
 
If Ann Wheaton were to charge sixty bucks for something, photographs wouldn't have been my first guess.
how much do you think she charges for licking the faces of men other than her husband.

When you get up to her table say "I know it's $60 for a picture, but how much to go round-the-world?" loud enough for Wil to hear.

This bitch has a blue checkmark on Twitter. For what? Seriously? Fucking a complete Z-lister?
Weren't blue checkmarks easier to get a few years ago? I feel like a lot of exceedingly marginal celebrities have been grandfathered in *coughBobChipmancough*.
All you need to do to get a blue checkmark on twitter is provide proof that you're the person you say you are (photo ID or whatever). You don't need to be any kind of celebrity, literally anyone can do it. It's been this way for years.

"If Chins Could Kill" was my source; its been a long minute since I've read it, so odds are I'm mixing details but I'm very certain I got the the economics of AoD right, and I'm very sure during post-production Bruce had to work a normie job because he'd backed the film with part of his pay to make up for the studio not releasing the promised budget.

It was originally that way, but Twitter has since admitted that they now only give them out to "influencers" and that it is indeed supposed to be a mark of status. They actually publicly said they were considering revoking Trump's blue checkmark because Orange Bad Man kept hurting so many feels, which unless they're saying they think his account has suddenly been taken over by someone that's not him with no evidence, says that it is no longer just that you have been verified as the person the account supposedly belongs to.

Could be. I'll pull my copy and recheck. Regardless, Campbell is proof you can have fun as a B-lister -- or maybe even a Z-lister -- as long as you don't take yourself too seriously.

God I wish they'd do that so hard. The shitstorm would be glorious and might even finish off Twitter. Or Trump would just buy it and fire all the troons.

OK, pulled the book out and I can't find anything about jobs after AoD (which did suffer delays), but Campbell DOES comment that between agents, managers, taxes, and his divorce, he made less than $50k a year. As he jokes, 'You too can become a rich movie star.' He does comment on how he went right from AoD to The Hudsucker Proxy. Hell, maybe he did a few shifts as a guard until the checks for Hudsucker Proxy started to clear.

This is really the lesson here. Hollywood stardom is a hell of a lot like pro sports; only a VERY few are going to get those golden tickets to go on to the big time. An awful lot of those poor schlubs are making less than plumbers and welders.

Has Wheaton ever shot his mouth off like Blob Chipman with contempt for 'the working class'?
 
Rick Berman has been gloriously fucking with Wil for years.

(This is even before he got Willy to show up for Nemesis, only to cut his scenes)

From: http://wilwheaton.net/2001/10/life_in_the_socalled_space_age/

Some stuffed shirt from Viacom gets up, makes some stupid speech that nobody wants to hear bout how great Star Trek is, and he introduces Rick Berman, who comes up to the podium, and makes another speech, about how great the last 7 years have been, and how it was through the work of some people, some people who are here tonight, that TNG was possible. Would those people please stand up? Patrick Stewart. Jonathan Frakes. Brent Spiner. Marina Sirtis. Gates McFadden. LeVar Burton. Michael Dorn. Denise Crosby. John DeLancie.
They all stand. The entire theatre is now on its feet, applauding their hard work, and commitment to the show. Berman is beaming as he applauds them.
They’re all standing up, except for me.
Berman looked right at me, and didn’t call out my name. The son of a bitch knew that I was there, and didn’t call me to stand. Later, I asked him why he’d left me out, and he said he didn’t know I was there. I told him that I was the one person, who was sitting with the cast, who wasn’t standing up. Maybe he remembered making eye contact with me, after he called Denise, and before he called on John DeLancie? It sucked, it was petty and it hurt.
Another time, I was invited to a big party for the 25th anniversary of Star Trek, also at Paramount. Again, I can’t remember if this was before, or after the aforementioned snubbing. Again, they sat us all together, and again, there was a “stand up and be counted” thing. Only this time, it was with all 3 casts. Maybe you’ve seen the picture? All three casts are on stage, holding these miniature American flags, which were given to them by astronauts who flew them on various space shuttle missions.
Again, I was left sitting, surrounded by empty chairs. I was so embarassed, as I sat there, feeling genuinely happy for my friends, from all the casts, who were standing on stage, and at the same time, I felt so tiny, and so lame…afterwards, I told Berman that I thought that was really shitty, and he said he hadn’t known that I was coming. Well, the thing is, when you’re the executive producer of Star Trek, you approve everything that goes on. Even guest lists.

This is really unacceptable behavior, almost on a level of how the atrocious and forgotten Lone Ranger remake of the early 1980s treated Clayton Moore, but since Wil Wheaton is an unlikable cunt I'm just laughing my ass off.
 
It's funny but I got a side with Will on that one. If you're asking Denise to stand up you better ask Will to stand up.

Unless he wasn't invited and just crashed the event. Wouldn't put it past him.
