Awesome Celebrity: Tom Hanks takes fake drunk photos with fan

Most celebs don't even bother taking photos with fans. Not only did Hanks pose for multiple shots, he made each one priceless. Thanks TP for putting us onto this one.

Awesome Vimeo Video: Old Spice - Muscle Music

The video staring Terry Crews is pretty interesting on its own. But when the video's over, it loads a special flash player that lets your record your own track by playing your keyboard. The best part is, no matter how bad you play, the Terry Crews ad libs make it funny. Thanks EG for sending this one to us!

Awesomely Hilarious Ad: Pizzapartment

Hands down, the funniest thing I've seen in a long time. No joke, it gets better every time you watch it. Just when you think you've laughed at it all, something ridiculous is right around the corner. Thanks KC for this one!

Awesome Moment: "The Blue"

By now, most of you have probably already seen this video captured by Mark Peters off the coast of Santa Cruz. But, I'd loved dolphins since I was a kid and this accidentally captured footage is stunning.

Awesome Rap Battle: Teacher vs. Student

Yeah, it's two white guys from the UK in a rap battle. But how often do you see a teacher and a student (who just happen to be white, and from the UK) got at it? I tip my cap to Blizzard and Mark Grist. This is awesome. via Devour

Awesome Tradition: A Minute In Warsaw

This is truly stunning. For one minute every year, the entire city of Warsaw pauses to remember those who fought for freedom during the 1944 Uprising. via @ Devour

Awesome Intro: Google Fiber - The Next Chapter of the Internet

I love the little worlds that Venables builds for Google. Fiber also looks like a great service. But unless you live in Kansas City, you gotta wait.

Awesome Campaign: Nike - Find Your Greatness

Classic work.

The 'Jogger' spot is brilliant.

And the :15s are some of the best short ads I've ever seen.

Awesome Short: Dirty Laundry

Done by Thomas Jane, who was in the 2004 version of the Punisher and is a huge comic fan, this short looks to revive the character. I've always loved the Punisher. I hope he gets a proper dark movie.

Awesome Ad: DirecTV - Questions

Super simple. Hilarious. Love it.

Awesome Ad: ESPN - This is SportsCenter (Buster Posey)

Not just posting this cause I'm a Giants fan. I love this concept and Posey actually handles himself well behind the camera, which is rare.

Awesome Ad: Axe - Susan Glenn

I actually had to look up that Susan Glenn is a slang term for the girl that got away. Regardless, this ad from Axe with Kiefer Sutherland is great.

Awesome Video: GoPro HD - Summer X-Games 2012

I love GoPro's marketing. It's super simple. Just give the product to cool folks and let them show off. This is one of their best yet.

Awesome Combo of Skills: William Spencer

William Spencer's combination of skateboarding and parkour not only made him one of the stuntmen in The Amazing Spiderman, it makes for some pretty awesome videos.
