Episode 6 of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy is the best episode of the season so far — which only highlights how badly the show was set up in the first place.

On this episode of Thumb War, we dig into why this finally feels like Star Trek, why it immediately falls apart under scrutiny, and how nostalgia, logic gaps, and baffling character choices keep undermining the series.

It’s better. It’s still broken. And it should’ve happened way earlier.

Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die is a sci-fi comedy that feels silly, stressful, and uncomfortably relevant all at once.

On this episode of Thumb War, we dig into Gore Verbinski’s return, Sam Rockwell’s charisma, Juno Temple’s emotional core, and why this movie’s AI-driven “happy ending” might be the scariest part of all.

It’s not subtle — but it is effective.

We’re saying it out loud — and early: Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie is the best movie we’re going to see this year.

On this episode of Thumb War, we break down the film’s impossible ambition, guerrilla filmmaking genius, time-travel chaos, and why this deeply specific Canadian comedy somehow feels universal. It’s hilarious, heartfelt, and a reminder of what theatrical comedies can still be.

If it’s playing near you, go see it with a crowd. Immediately.
