Watch: This awesome restaurant in Staten Island had the idea to employ grandmothers from all over the world to make its food

There’s nothing better than your grandma’s cooking…except maybe a bunch of grandmas’ cooking all in one restaurant. That’s exactly what Enoteca Maria in Staten Island, New York is offering.

WATCH THE VIDEO

Holy Shit! Different dishes cooked by Nana’s from around the World? I would eat here every, damn, DAY.

this is the first time in my entire life that I’ve wanted to go to staten island

Okay I just finished reading Two Towers so you know what that means: time for me to drink a whole bottle of wine and liveblog the movie. If you’re not in the market for three hours of my drunk and idiotic commentary clogging your dashboard, now’s the time block this tag.

Was the first like five minutes of this movie provided by the New Zealand Tourism Board?

Boromir’s dramatic slow motion double-take is the best part of this flashback

Shoutout to Sean Astin for being the only actor in this franchise who doesn’t feel compelled to roll his Rs like he’s in a Dos Equis commercial every time he says the word “Mordor”

I should have started a running tally of how many times Frodo falls on his ass at the beginning of Fellowship

Is it just me or does Gimli have a pot leaf on the crest of his helmet?

THEY’RE TAKING THE HOBBITS TO ISENGARD 🎶 TO ISENGARD 🎶 TO ISENGARD!!!

I’m sorry but Éomer has the sexiest armor? Like Karl Urban on a horse in red leather was the best thing that ever happened to teenage me

Gotta love how Treebeard just strides around for half the movie double-fisting hobbits like a frat star with a couple of Solo cups

Of course Gimli’s first instinct when he finds a mysterious sticky black substance on a leaf is to PUT IT IN HIS MOUTH, Jesus Gimli you’re like a toddler I swear to Numenor

Shadowfax’s majestic slo-mo entrance is basically Baywatch but with a horse

Why is Théoden such a dick in the movies? Like did the writers go “What with Orthanc and Barad-dûr there’s really not enough conflict or anything so let’s just make Théoden kind of an asshole”

The bizarre Sam-Frodo-Sméagol-Gollum love quadrangle is a hell of a lot funnier if instead of Gollum you just imagine Andy Serkis in a beige unitard

Did I ever tell you guys about that time my brother had a bunch of friends sleep over and my mom asked me to go wake them up in the morning but didn’t specify how so what I did was go down in the basement and blast that scene where the orcs all start howling and shrieking and banging their weapons on the ground outside Helm’s Deep through the surround sound system? Let me just tell you, if you’ve never watched five teenage boys who think they’re really cool literally fall out of bed in their boxers screaming in terror, it’s a memory you’ll cherish forever

Okay for some reason they also made Faramir approximately 100x more of a dickbiscuit than he is in the books, like in the books when Frodo finally admits he has the ring Faramir’s just like “Dude you literally couldn’t pay me to take that off your hands”

Ah yes, Lord of the Rings Part II, also known as Really Dramatic Shots of Viggo Mortensen Being Dirty, Riding Horses, and Opening Doors

If you really want to have a laugh, find that scene where Théoden’s bragging about his Hornberg and just watch Orlando Bloom’s face in the background because the eyebrow game is STRONG

“THEN I SHALL DIE AS ONE OF THEM” okay maybe not the *best* time to suddenly switch back into English

Jfc I completely forgot about Théoden’s Hamlet moment… Who am I, Gamling? WHAT am I????

Yaaassss here we go with the Olympic Orc Torch

I think skateboarding Legolas is where the creative team officially stopped caring about being taken at all seriously

The helmets on the Gondorian soldiers are so fucking stupid, like are the points on top supposed to be there so you can headbutt a bitch in a pinch?

Sometimes when I’m just out and about I like to look up at the sky and scream NAZGUUUUL just to see what people do

OH MY GOD IT’S THE LONE RANGER no wait sorry that’s just Gandalf

We’ve arrived at Frodo’s Poltergeist moment: THEY’RE HEEEEEERE

I think I missed my calling as a LOTR actor, because it flawlessly combines three things I excel at: riding horses, hitting stuff, and talking like a pretentious twat

And with that, I am done… If you’re still following me for some reason, thanks for your patience and look forward to Return of the King in a few days’ time

This is the best thing in the world oh my god

Get the entire Steven Universe Soundtrack! UPDATED (S4)

simoncucho:

This post is frequently updated, if you see it on another blog please follow it back to it’s origins to (maybe) see an updated version, thanks!

Have you ever wished to have all the beautiful music heard in the TV Show Steven Universe right there on your iTunes so you can listen to it whenever you want? Well now you can!

I have spend much hours making an extensive compilation of the soundtrack of the show that has been posted by various of the show creators and music producers, most of the stuff has been taken from official sources.

I have added tags to all the tracks, each track has the respective name and they are separated in different albums by each episode. Each track in the album is sorted in order of appearance. Updated until “Mindful Education”!

I also have created a simple artwork for each album that is the episode title taken directly from the title card of each episode. Season 3 and 4 episodes artwork have a new design as well.

I’m not a 100% sure if all the information is right, most of tracks have the artist set as “Aivi & Surasshu”, if someone after downloading would like to help me correct any mistake that has been done I’d be glad to make a contact. You can always message me at this very same blog.

Also included in this huge compilation!

  • All the ending theme variants. Does not include “Alone At Sea” one and further on (yet!).
  • The title theme as well the instrumental for it and full version.
  • Many demos sang by Rebecca Sugar herself! (And others too).
  • Audios from the pilot.

I have decided to separate the audio in different files since most hosting sites wouldn’t allow me to upload the complete set. They have been separated into Season 1, Season 2, Season 3, Season 4 and Extras (Openings, Endings, and Demos)

These compilation is up-to-date until “Mindful Education” including only released audio. Songs that haven’t been posted without SFX aren’t included.

Mind helping with a reblog? Thanks!
