This week’s Patreon-only Thumb War is a classic check-in episode — no formal review, just us catching up and going wherever the conversation takes us.

We get into:

• Trivia and random movie tangents
• A deep dive into what’s going on with Star Trek right now
• The Andy Weir conversation and sci-fi expectations
• Why some shows just aren’t connecting
• A peek behind the curtain on YouTube, Shorts, and growing the podcast
• And a bunch of side quests along the way

Loose, opinionated, and all over the place — exactly how these Patreon hangs are supposed to go.

On this episode of Thumb War, we revisit Star Wars: A New Hope and break down why it became one of the most influential films of all time.

We discuss the film’s impact, performances, practical effects, and why it still resonates decades later — along with a few modern critiques and observations.

Does it still hold up? Or is it all nostalgia?
