| Bat Thumb : 2 of 5 | |

 Even though I wasn't blown away by Thumb Wars, I couldn't resist trying out another one of Steve Oedekerk's thumb films. Bat Thumb is a pretty good parody of the Batman films, following the gothic look and Danny Elfman soundtrack, but created entirely with miniature sets and real thumbs (in costumes with super-imposed eyes and mouths). The humor is pretty silly - part of the joke is just the way these goofy thumbs look, and the rest is just weird stuff like Batman's sidekick Blue Jay and his stupid costume (and his tendency to follow too closely to Bat Thumb's booty while they climb walls). The villain is No-Face, who wants to erase the faces of everyone in Gaaathumb City (of course). I'm sure I'll rent more of these thumb movies - they're short, fun, and well-manicured.
