Hello lovely people, I'm in a good mood, the weather is nice, autumn is on the way, and all this got me thinking:
What if we played games ? Same way you can play games, trivia, pic a fav, ect.. and engage with other fans on the instagram story interface, I could post a game on here every now and then and anyone could simply reblog my post with their answers, for example. All Milo V. related, of course.
Let's get this small bunch of people some good fun. It's so quiet nowadays. Would you like that ? Let me know! 馃
The Peaks and Valleys of Milo Ventimiglia's Career: A Summary
1995-2001: Fresh faced new actor. Lands a couple of quick guest spots on popular shows of the time (Fresh Prince of Bel Air, Sabrina The Teenage Witch, CSI) and a bunch of things nobody remembers.
2001-2003: Gilmore Girls. Apparently Milo was the one to choose to leave, even though Amy Sherman Palladino wanted to give Jess a much longer arc, possibly even a run through the rest of the series. Milo tells Amy he wants Jess gets to get hit by a bus and die.
2003-A possible Jess Mariano spinoff does not go into production due to budget constraints.
2004-Brief return to Gilmore Girls.A bunch of movies and shows nobody remembers.
2005-A bunch of movies and shows nobody remembers except, arguably, the Rocky Balboa sequels (he would have a larger role in the 2006 sequel and then a much smaller role in another sequel in 2015).
2006-Brief return to Gilmore Girls. Lands the role of Peter Petrelli on Heroes.
2006-2010- Plays Peter Petrelli, admits later that only the first season was any good and by season 4 he was unhappy and was only there to fulfill his obligation to work and collect a paycheck.
2010-2011: Unable to find work for a full year after Heroes (he has always been vague on the "why") he contemplates quitting acting, and leaving the country to work on an Italian farm. Instead he will spend the next 6 years clawing his way up.
2011-Low budget movies nobody remembers.
2012-Low budget movies nobody remembers.
2013-Low budget movies nobody remembers.
2014-Low budget movies nobody remembers.
2015-Low budget movies nobody remembers.
2016-Returns to play Jess, the only ray of light in the much reviled Gilmore Girls reboot. For the next 2-3 years fends off "Who's Rory's babydaddy" questions with ever decreasing patience.
2016 (aged 39): Lands the role of Jack Pearson on This is Us.
2020-Milo dyes his hair blond in anticipation of playing Evel Knevel in a biopic. The pandemic scraps the project.
2022-Receives a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Do you ever just look at Milo as Jess Mariano, and then as Peter Petrelli and then as Jack Pearson and go how is this one person playing all of these! There鈥檚 the most subtle differences in everything that is just insane! Petition to give my man an Emmy!!
Yes!! I'm sure I made a post about this a while back: even something so small and simple like the way he acts with different facial muscles to give these guys different expressions the others rarely use (even down to different eye shapes!) is ridiculously dedicated but very impressive XD
Different tones and inflections in their voices, ways of moving, even breathing. It's so carefully done that it's almost too subtle to notice, but it's easy to forget that Jess, Peter and Jack are all played by the same actor
I know the Milo Ventimiglia "connoisseurs" are a rather small portion of Tumblr and I'm not sure how many actually follow me but if you wanna send me asks about the man, his movies/tv shows, fashion looks, ect.. please do it, it would be so fun, I'd love to answer! 馃グ Feel free to be creative and send as many you wish.
People never engage with me nowadays, but I'm here, I don't bite! 馃馃寛
