Dyllon Orthman cut a lot of green to raise a lot of green. The 11-year-old Dalhart, Texas boy cut lawns to raise $16,000 for victims of this year’s tornado in Moore, Oklahoma. Dyllon cut almost 90 lawns in a two-month period and said “If a little boy can help, then anyone can help.” The money was given to the Hudson family, whose home was ruined in the tornado. Ursula Hudson lived in the house with her six kids and says she’s blown away by what Dyllon accomplished, adding, “How does one little boy accomplish so much and contact so many people? How does he grow such an amount for us, when he didn’t even know us to begin with?” Proof that heroes come in many sizes.

So there’s this show…oh, what’s it called again…it’s final season kicked off last night…oh dammit what’s it called again…oh yeah, Breaking Bad. Well, a lot of people watched it last night — double than the show’s previous high — which I’m guessing means a lot of people did some binge-watching via DVDs, Netflix etc. during Breaking Bad‘s hiatus, adding more fans to its roster. Reports the Hollywood Reporter: "Breaking Bad surged to a series record on Sunday night, bringing in 5.9 million viewers in its first airing — nearly doubling its previous high…The first half of Breaking Bad’s final season opened with 2.9 million viewers last July, making for a 102 percent gain, year over year. A record at the time, the series eclipsed the haul several episodes later with 3 million viewers tuning into the penultimate episode before the show’s break." Breaking Bad also surged in adults 18-49, jumping 87 percent from last summer’s season premiere with 3.6 million viewers in the demo. Adults 25-54 also saw gains, rising 81 percent to 3.3 million.

'World War Z' Is Now Brad Pitt's Highest Grossing Film Of All-Time (3 photo)

When all is said and done for movies in 2013, and the Academy has handed out every last gold-covered chocolate statue for the Best Picture and Best Actor and everyone has clapped the loudest for German actor Dieter Pfaff during the In Memoriam segment, perhaps the biggest achievement of this year will have been the box office success of World War Z. In the last week or so, the Brad Pitt zombie action film managed to crack the $500 million mark worldwide, and that’s notable not just because this movie seemed like a textbook failure from Day One, but also because it’s the first Brad Pitt film to ever do that. Prior to WWZ, Pitt’s highest grossing film worldwide was the 2004 Ancient Greece war epic Troy ($497 million), while his biggest domestic box office performance was the 2005 action comedy Mr. & Mrs. Smith, which hauled in $186 million in the U.S. and $478 million globally. Smith was also Pitt’s biggest box office opening, as people shelled out $50 million to see him star opposite the woman that stole him away from Jennifer Aniston, which was, of course, the most important story of 2005 and perhaps the entire 00s. And now it’s World War Z, the movie that cause countless fanboys and especially me freak out because it wasn’t staying true to the Max Brooks book that we all love so much, that has set the bar the highest for Pitt, with its $66 million opening weekend, $197 million domestic and $502 million worldwide grosses. I wonder what Pitt thinks about all of that…

If there are two thing TNA Impact Wrestling loves, they’re: 1. Unnecessary mysteries 2.

Bellator’s TV show is “sister shows” with pro wrestling also-ran Impact Wrestling. When Rampage signed with Bellator he was on Impact within the week, so it makes sense that Tito would be announced for a fight and also show up there. Thank goodness Impact had just begun running a story about a mysterious bald man threatening to beat up wrestlers from the shadows! Yes, the August 1 Warnings mystery man who’d been threatening the wrestling organization for weeks turned out to be Tito Ortiz, and if the crowd reaction to Ortiz’s appearance is any indication, it was well worth the money. And by “well worth the money” I mean “thank goodness they fired the pregnant lady and all the injured wrestlers to make cap room for an old MMA guy who hasn’t fought since 2011 and only won one out of his last nine fights.” Awkward and embarrassing all around.

In the age of AMAs and live threads and long-form podcast interviews, the movie press tour is such a contrived anachronism that I’m surprised testy interviews like this don’t happen more often. You can almost feel the actors going “really? we’re still doing these?” Here, Jamie Edwards, an entertainment correspondent for London radio station Magic 105.4, tried his damnedest to squeeze some enthusiasm out of crotchedy old Bruce Willis, who seems like he just awoke from hibernation. Edwards’ enthusiasm seemed to only make Willis more angry, like bonking a bear on the nose with a tree branch. Willis seems annoyed solely because Edwards seems so happy to be there. God, I love it when older dudes completely stop giving a sh*t.

Drake and Kanye West have had a pretty cold relationship over the last few years…bordering on an under-the-radar feud. Part of the reason is their massive egos, but the two rappers just couldn’t seem to get on the same page. They’d throw shots at each other (Kanye accusing Drake’s producer of jocking his styles) or passive aggressive little one-ups (Drake being seen hanging out with Amber Rose), but it now seems to be over. As part of Drake’s massive OVO Fest show in Canada, he brought out everyone from TLC to Diddy and Mase. But the biggest surprise came when Kanye West came out and performed “New Slaves.” Then the bromance went into full effect with each rapper praising the other to the extreme. Kanye said he and Jay DASH Z wouldn’t have made Watch The Throne if not for Drake’s music putting pressure on them to make a classic. Then Drake said he only raps because Kanye inspired him. If you’re looking for videos, our guy Nigel over at Real Talk NY will have them up shortly since he was in attendance. All in all, it looks like OVO Fest is the rap show to be at from now on. Who saw that coming?

Check. Florida, you done it again. “I imagine him wiggling and then going still,” [Ronald William] Brown told an associate in an Internet chat session, describing his plot to kill and cannibalize a boy at Gulf Coast Church. On Friday, Brown was arrested on charges of conspiring to kidnap a child and possession of child pornography and booked into the Pinellas County Jail. U.S. Department of Homeland Security agents who searched his home found lewd images of children bound and gagged, a flier for a missing child and “images of children that appear to be deceased.” According to the affidavit supporting the criminal complaint, Brown told agents that he and Kansas resident Michael Arnett, another alleged child cannibalism enthusiast, “did discuss killing, dismembering and eating” a specific boy at Gulf Coast Church. However, Brown said “it was just a fantasy and he could never and would never hurt anyone.” Brown worked for years for the Christian Television Network in Largo, the state’s oldest Christian broadcasting station. He performed with puppets on a Captain Kangaroo-style show called Joy Junction. In one episode, a video excerpt of which is available online, he operates a puppet that talks disdainfully about how some bad kids tried to show him pornography.

Days have passed since Fox News aired arguably the single most stupid interview the “fair and balanced” cable news network has ever run without bothering to acknowledge that it ever happened. As you’ve probably heard by now, Fox weekend host Lauren Green asked scholar Reza Aslan, the author of Zealot: The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth, “You’re a Muslim, so why did you write a book about the founder of Christianity?” But today the network finally acknowledged it, in typical Fox News fashion no less: they played the “the liberal media is out to get us” card by trotting out conservative media critic Brent Bozell of the Media Research Center, who accused Aslan of not being “a very good Muslim” — for writing a book about Jesus, you see — and called Aslan’s book a “very very biased and very very one-sided book. “It was the exact correct question that needed to be asked,” Bozell said. “She had every right to ask him, ‘Do you have a bias? Are you being influenced by your faith to write what you’re writing?’ He should have said, first and foremost, said, ‘Yes I am.’ To deny it shows the aloof arrogance of ‘How dare she even ask that question?’” I would bet good money Brent Bozell hasn’t even read Aslan’s book.

There’s a lot going on in that headline, and I didn’t even mention the arrest yet, so let’s break it down. 1. Shea Allen is a special investigations reporter for the Huntsville, Alabama-based ABC affiliate WAAY-TV, or at least she was, before she was fired because of something she posted on her personal blog. 2. That something: the Lindsay Lohan-less “Confessions of a Red Headed Reporter,” including, “I’ve gone bra-less during a live broadcast and no one was the wiser,” “I’ve mastered the ability to contort my body into a position that makes me appear much skinner in front of the camera than I actually am,” and my personal favorite, “I’m frightened of old people and I refuse to do stories involving them or the places they reside.” I’ve often said that WAAY-TV has been sorely lacking in segments about the Old Country Buffet. 3. Allen deleted the post once it went viral, but it’s back up. “This post was taken down because I was momentarily misguided about who I am and what I stand for,” she wrote. “To clarify, I make no apologies for the following re-post. It’s funny, satirical, and will likely offend some of the more conservative folks. But it isn’t fake and its a genuine look into my slightly twisted psyche.” Uh-huh. I bet she really likes Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland, too. 4. Allen has since tweeted that she was “terminated without cause,” but today came reports, from an ex-co-worker via Gawker, that she was a “ticking time bomb for termination.” Allen was arrested in 2012, suspended for saying “f*ck” on the air, and “allegedly followed that up with another warning for running a news package ‘that contained profanity and racial slurs.’” Man, I liked her, right up to the “racial slurs” part. The moral of the story here: all reporters should be Karl Stefanovic. Know what I mean?

The original was essentially Somewhere In Time with the personal tragedy laid on with a trowel. Ashton Kutcher’s character wasn’t just molested, he was forced to star in kiddie porn by Eric Stoltz. He doesn’t just have an abusive father, he has a father who tries to strangle him to death before being killed by guards. It’s a dark movie but at the same time it’s kind of ridiculous, because it wants a PG-13 and frankly Ashton Kutcher just isn’t credible as a human being who’s suffered all this misfortune, and the screenwriters have no sense of the absurd; an alternate ending features the hero traveling back to his birth and aborting himself.

Washington-based serviceman Brandon Harker returned from a nine-month tour of Afghanistan to find out that his friend, who was trusted with looking after Harker’s dog Oakley, had given the pup away on Craigslist. According to Harker, via the Examiner, “My friend just said they got rid of him…They never gave me any other explanation. He would say, ‘I don’t know who we gave him to’ and ‘I don’t know their phone number’.” He’s taken to Craigslist to retrieve the adorable two-year-old Labrador retriever. I just recently returned from a 9 month deployment. And upon arrival back into the area I found out my yellow Labrador retriever was either given away or sold while I was gone. I was told this happened in May, but it could have happened anytime from February till June. He is good with kids and other dogs. He has a unique coat, on his face he has spots of a darker yellow (champagne) he also has spots of the same color going down his sides and legs. If anyone has any information on this and can help me please do. I am just trying to get him back to me since he was wrongfully given away or sold with out my permission while I was deployed. I will also be able to verify the dog is mine because he is micro-chipped and registered to me. Once again thank you to everyone who sees this and tries to help. If you could spread the word about this issues that would be great as well. Let’s find this man’s dog, and arrest his so-called friend for treason.

We must break away from our regularly scheduled funny Craigslist ad post to talk about one that’s incredibly depressing.

Nazis are more than just people who care way too much about grammar — they’re also real, live humans who once did terrible, terrible things. For more information, consult your local Hogan’s Heroes rerun. Once you’re back, you’ll be in the mood for some NAZI HUNTING, which is exactly what the Simon Wiesenthal Centre wants. Some 2,000 posters popped up yesterday in Berlin, Hamburg and Cologne, offering a €25,000 [or $33,190] reward for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of Nazi war criminals. It marks the latest push by the Simon Wiesenthal Centre to locate as-yet unconvicted Third Reich war criminals. The impetus for the campaign, dubbed “Operation Last Chance”, was the Munich trial of former SS guard John Demjanjuk for war crimes at the Sobibor camp in occupied Poland. Though he died last year before his conviction was finalised, it marked a watershed in Nazi trials. In previous decades, German authorities had refused to open an investigation without concrete proof of a specific Nazi-era crime – often a difficult task given the regime’s industrial killing machine. But now German authorities have indicated a willingness to lower the legal hurdle to prosecutions, thus expanding the pool – if diluting the seniority – of potential Third Reich perpetrators still at large.

Much has been made about the new Rolling Stone cover featuring Dzhokhar Tsarnaev looking like a badass rock star. Some people think it’s just a cheap ploy to sell magazines and others think there’s some real journalistic merit to putting him on the cover. Well, Fox News is definitely in the former category. Thursday night on The Five, Greg Gutfeld — who somehow still gets to rant on national television — had some choice words about the cover. He actually made some good points by talking about the article itself being more of a glorification piece than anything really in-depth. Then, of course, Gutfeld took it a step farther by drawing a Hitler mustache and devil horns on the cover. Sigh. In the battle between Fox News and Rolling Stone, it’s pretty clear that we will all end up losing in the end.

'The Wolverine' Should Have Had Less Ambition (3 photo)

The Wolverine is a surprising movie in some respects. Not in terms of the plot; there’s pretty much nothing in this movie that you won’t see coming. But rather in terms of how brutal it’s willing to be, and how much it lets Hugh Jackman play to his strengths. Unfortunately, the third act throws ninjas and a giant robot at us, and nearly derails the whole thing. It’s a familiar plot, mind you; a tough guy, stuck in a foreign land, struggling with his past decisions, and discovering the means to move on and some asses to kick. It’s a sturdy form, though, and it’s perfectly suited for the strengths of its lead.

Fox News Hits New Low With Reza Aslan Interview (1 photo + 1 video)

f Fox News‘ new strategy is to cover their ears and scream, “LALALA I CAN’T HEAR YOU LALALA” at their invited guests, they’re doing a bang up job. The home of the World’s Loudest Opinions continued their shame spiral toward their inevitable future on Friday during a chat with scholar Reza Aslan, the author of Zealot: The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth. For you see, Aslan is a Muslim, so why would HE be interested in Christianity. That was an actual question. “You’re a Muslim, so why did you write a book about the founder of Christianity?” asked Lauren Green, to which Aslan replied, “Well, to be clear, I am a scholar of religions with four degrees, including one in the New Testament, and fluency in biblical Greek, who has been studying the origins of Christianity for two decades, who also just happens to be a Muslim.” “Yeah, well,” Green was thinking, “I have a Jewish friend.” (No, she doesn’t.) It only gets worse and worse the longer it goes on, culminating with Green accusing Aslan, who increasingly takes the tone of an exasperated parent explaining something obvious to their child, of never disclosing he’s a Muslim. Um, no: “Ma’am, the second page of my book says I’m a Muslim. Every single interview I have ever done on TV or in print says I’m a Muslim.” At no point does Fox News realize the irony of persecuting someone over their religion in a discussion about Jesus, and everyone is now dumber.

DJ Khaled Proposed to Nicki Minaj And Was Actually Serious [VIDEO] (1 video)

In a bizarre move that’s actually not close enough to his album dropping to be considered just a publicity stunt, DJ Khaled proposed to Nicki Minaj on video. Except Minaj wasn’t even there. In an interview with MTV News, Khaled “I love you, I like you. I want you, I want you to be mine.” Khaled then explained why he was on TV doing this. “I’m at MTV because it’s a worldwide network,” he said. “Why am I not telling you this face to face? Because I understand that you’re busy.” Oh. Skype wasn’t an option, boo? Then he brought out the big guns — and a big rock. “I’ma be honest with you, I wanna marry you. “Nicki Minaj, will you marry me?” Khaled swears he’s serious. “We got the same symptoms, we both suffer from success. You’re out touring, you hustle, you make music — you’re winning. I understand,” he said emphatically. “That’s You need a man like me in your life that’s gonna take care of you and respect you.” Oh boy. The camera cuts away for a split second and Khaled concedes, “You gotta take the time to think about it, I understand … I want your fans to know, my fans to know, my family, your family,” he stammered, “that I want to marry you.” (Doesn’t the fact that “fans” preceded “family” sort of reek of thirst, though?) “I worked hard to get this ring,” he added, perhaps thinking a dose of guilt would trick the former ‘American Idol’ judge into thinking she owes him something. “A year ago I wanted to tell you,” Khaled added. “On the ‘Take It to the Head’ video … things got better for me. I was preparing for this,” he said, pointing to the bling. “Nicki Minaj … will you marry me?” We’re gonna speak for Minaj and say probably not. She did retweet a post including the video but has yet to actually respond. She’s been openly dating Safaree Samuels for a while and has never been too desperate for press, so we’re gonna call this a wash.
