Thumbs! is a collective term for the O Entertainment short films created by Steve Oedekerk using "Thumbation" technology, a process which combines live-action thumbs and superimposition of the voice actors' faces. The first short, Thumb Wars, was created as a television special and spawned the rest of the series.

Thumb Wars: The Thighs of Skyskipper is an upcoming spoof of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker and a sequel to Thumb Wars: The Phantom Cuticle. Initially planned to be released on May 4th 2023,[8] its release has been pushed back due to a new partnership with a "Major Studio".[9] It serves as Oedekerk's first project following his hiatus due to the bad reception of Planet Sheen.
The Thumbersons, a small short, came with the Thumb Wars/Thumbtanic Thumb Double Feature.
"Thumb Wars/ Thumbtanic Thumb Double Feature" is the only double feature of Thumbs! available. It includes "Thumb Wars" and "Thumbtanic". It also comes with the exclusive short "The Thumbersons". In 2005, it was released for the PlayStation Portable's UMD Video.
"All Thumbs!" is a boxed set containing "Thumb Wars", "Thumbtanic", "The Godthumb", "Bat Thumb", "Frankenthumb", and "Blair Thumb" on DVD. The short "The Thumbersons" was omitted. This is because the "Thumb Wars/ Thumbtanic Thumb Double Feature" wasn't included, rather two separate DVDs for the two filmettes.
