Thumb Wars, Thumbtanic..and many more. Instant classics. Has anyone seen these hilarious spoofs? XD I loved em! Any comments? At first I was like "What the heck?" But then I realized just how funny it is. ^^;;

I've seen Franken Thumb and Thumb Wars. Very funny! I want to see the rest of them.

Man I really want to see these. Heaps of people who have seen them have recommended them to me, but so far I haven't managed to watch even one. *Tears up*
They sound really great; someday I'll have to get them out from the nearest rental store.

I watched a little of Thumb Wars in media studies class earlier this year - more a few minutes than anything substantial - but I thought it was really funny. Especially Luke's voice. What I saw was great. :grin:

I haven't exactly pursued this series, but I have ended up seeing a few anyway. They were acceptably funny.

Soph. At http://www.deepdiscountdvd.com they have all of them for reasonably cheap. Or a collection of all of them for even cheaper, well respectively, or something. :eh:
The humor's a bit...off color at times...but the montey python-ish humor is worth it. :D

Aye...I've seen every single one out so far. They are quite fun. I wonder if Odeokerk is making any more?

Oh but of course. It's all due to the [genius?] of a certain Steve Oedekerk. All the movies merely consist of thumbs dress up in wigs and costumes and done like puppets, but eyes and mouths are put on them with computers, and yet the eyes and mouths are of humans, so what you get is freakishly bizzarre thumbs with faces doing montey python-ish things in grand spoofy glory. Great? You bet.
