We waited a long time for this. My wife and I absoluelty love Thumb Wars, so we were anxiously awaiting the release of the Blair Thumb. Some truly hilaroius moments and scenes, but not quite as funny as Thumb Wars. Still, we are dedicated ThumbFans, and will watch it again and again, maybe it will grow on us...like mold (that's good for you right? penicillan and all.) On another note, I can't wait for Thumbtanic to come out.

Oh yes. This is such a fantastic parody. Ok, look, i haven't even ever seen the Blair Witch Project. It was still outrageously funny. You can even watch this with kids and they will find it hilarious. My whole neighborhood quotes it constantly. Do yourself a favour and plug it in. If you don't have a diverse or even ridiculous sense of humour, if you're one of those purists that is afraid to laugh, then don't bother. But Steve Oedekerk is a master.

This is a bad follow-up to the great Thumb Wars. The jokes aren't as funny and there are some moments where nothing funny is going on at all. Not a total waste though, some parts are funny and it's better than Bat Thumb.
The DVD includes: A very funny commentary, a very unfunny insane commentary, a mock featurette, lame outtakes, deleted scenes, storyboards, and trailers for this, Thumbtanic, Bat Thumb, and the unreleased Frankenthumb.

I LOVE THE THUMBATION SERIES! I can not wait for The Lord of the Thumb Rings, Thumbatrix, and WTW World Thumb Wrestling. They all sound great. One-eyed man rocks! I think that Steve should also do The Thumb of All Fears (The Sum of All Fears). He should also DEFINITELY do more Thumb Wars movies. Thumb Wars II: Attack of the Thumbs. Maybe also the sequels to the Godfather should be "thumb-ized" and also the sequels to the Blair Thumb.

Of the four thumb movies currently released (Thumb Wars, Thumbtanic, Bat Thumb, and Blair Thumb), this is my least favorite. Recall that "thumbation" is compromised of a cast of dressed-up thumbs with super-imposed faces. No matter where you are, any dressed-up thumb with a super-imposed face is a hoot. So the Blair Thumb spoofs the Blair Witch, obviously. While it does a good job spoofing, it doesn't do the same justice entertaining. Yes, there were moments where I laughed aloud. But most of the time I was only thinking to myself, "Okay, okay... let's get to the next joke already. And make it a funny one this time." I wasn't left with much to quote, either. Unless you like saying "Ah, spit!" a lot, you won't find anything worth spouting out spontaneously to your friends. I really enjoyed the other thumb movies, but this one didn't mean much to me. Don't waste your time unless you absolutely MUST have the whole collection.

This has to be my favorite movie of all time!! If you haven't seen this movie yet...well, let's just say your missin' out on a whole lot of good stuff.

If you like to quote movies than this movie is perfect for you!! There are great scenes like the thumb redneck scene, "Tell em' what you heard!" and of course, the panic scene, "aawww SPIT man!! aaawww spit!"

This is even better as a DVD because of it's special features. Its got deleted scenes, upcoming thumb movie trailers and a whole lot more!!!

Ok, this is a funny film. It gets funnier every time I see it. Classic lines like "Mallow" and "Totally Sharky...complete" are now part of my hilarious movie quotes. A steal at [the price], worth at least an 1/8th more. Buy this film or ... rent this film at least!

I happen to catch this playing in a SunCoast video store - there was crowd of people watching it around one of the ceiling monitors. What can I say? I felt like a fool standing in the middle of the mall laughing my butt off - but I had plenty of company.

It's mostly the expressions on the thumbs 'faces' that really knock me out. The dialog is pretty funny as well - a great satire.

I'll say this - you have to like, uh, 'stupid' humor. If you find stuff like 'Half Baked' or 'Scary Movie' funny, you'll love this.

Fortunately for me. I LOVE stupid humor. This is right up my alley.

First of all, I feel it best that you watch 'Blair Witch' before you see this, otherwise, this will make NO sense whatsoever. I was (personally) glad that characters in 'Witch' were eventually got what they 'deserved' as they were incredibly annoying & needed to be b!+C#ed-slapped all over the place! (..ahem...sorry.)

As I was saying...

All the Thumb movies have proven to be great(!), and this one is NO exception! I have been anxiously awaiting for the new Thumbshows for years now!

I think there should be shows like the PowerThumbRangers, The Incredible Green Thumb (Hulk), Gone With the Thumb, X-Thumbs, Fantastic [4] Thumbs...any many, many more.

Just don't stop.

Keep on Thumbin'!

This was a big disappointment after Thumb Wars, which is enjoyable everytime I watch it. While Thumb Wars had me laughing almost the whole way through it, Blair Thumb only had a few funny moments. Maybe if you're a *huge* fan of The Blaire Witch, you'll find this worthwhile. Otherwise, skip it.

Hopefully Thumbtanic will be better...
