Cannabis-Themed Movies That You Should Watch Right Now

by | Apr 7, 2023 | Movies | 0 comments

You can’t deny that stoner comedies are some of the funniest, most entertaining movies made. The industry has slowed a lot in the last few years but every so often one of these films is released. Individuals interested in marijuana culture (and who like to smoke themselves) tend to get a lot of enjoyment out of watching this kind of content. If you are one such individual then why not find films you haven’t seen before to watch? This post will tell you about some of the most popular so you have some movies to watch.

Buying Cannabis Products
Before delving into some of the movie industry’s best stoner comedies some time needs first to be given to marijuana and Cannabis products; the average stoner smokes marijuana flower. While marijuana flower does produce an intense and almost instantaneous high, there are other ways of consuming it. Individuals interested in getting high and watching movies might also want to consider CBD products, as according to Mr Hemp Flower CBD, they can be very relaxing, and while they do not produce a high, they can still be a lot of fun. You do not need a permit or license to take CBD products as they are legalized for use recreationally and medicinally in most places.

The only time that CBD products are not legally allowed is when they contain THC, the psychoactive compound found in Cannabis that’s responsible for producing the plant’s famous high. If you plan on using CBD that contains THC then you need to get permission from the legislative or government body responsible for issuing marijuana permits. You may also want to consider looking into edibles; the high produced by edibles is extremely intense and unlike a traditional marijuana high so use them cautiously.

1. Friday
Friday which features Ice Cube and Chris Tucker in their primes is one of the most famous and iconic stoner comedies ever made. This film spawned countless sequels and copycats. It is a film that is beloved even by people who’re not heavily involved in stoner culture or life. If you are somebody associated with the stoner culture or who enjoys buddy comedy films, you will most definitely enjoy watching Friday.

2. Harold and Kumar Get the Munchies
Harold and Kumar Get the Munchies is arguably the most famous and hilarious stoner comedy ever made. Still until this day it features right at the top of ranking and compilation lists. If you are interested in watching an iconic, extremely funny stoner comedy then should give Harold and Kumar some consideration. This film like Friday spawned dozens of copycats and has a few sequels of its own although none compare to the original. You can stream Harold and Kumar or you can buy it. It is occasionally shown on television too.

3. American Pie
American Pie isn’t typically considered a stoner comedy and marijuana hardly features in the series. However, it is still a comedy of the time when stoner comedies were first coming into their own and many consider it just as relevant to the genre as Friday or Harold and Kumar. The American Pie series is one of the funniest film series there is. Because of how popular they are, they are widely available and can be found everywhere. If you are interested in watching a classic American series that is famous for how hilariously funny it is then you will most definitely enjoy American Pie or its many spin-offs and sequels.

4. Jay and Silent Bob Reboot
Jay and Silent Bob is another famous American stoner comedy. It’s a film that is available all over the internet and has itself spawned many spinoffs. If you are interested in watching it then you shouldn’t have any trouble finding it. It does need to be noted that because of its popularity, it is not uncommon for websites to offer pirated copies. If you plan on watching it then make sure you watch a legit version, ideally hosted by a site that has a license to show it. You can find out if the site has a license or not by reaching out to its customer support department.

5. Next Friday
Next Friday is a sequel to Friday. It’s often considered to be just as good as the original although that really is debatable. Like Jay and Silent Bob Reboot and the other films here, it is sadly pirated quite often; the reason you need to avoid pirated content is that it’s essentially just theft. When you do not pay for the movies that you watch you are contributing to organized crime. It should also be noted that in some places, watching pirated movies can get you into trouble. While very few people ever do actually get into trouble for it, don’t take any chances with your freedom and criminal record.

6. How High
How High is a funny stoner comedy that features two of America’s then most popular hip-hop artists; it has an ensemble cast with many other hip-hop artists and musicians from that era showing their faces. Many consider How High to be one of the best modern stoner comedies although it doesn’t hold a candle to Friday. If you plan on watching How High then you are really going to need to be stoned because much of the film doesn’t make sense and while the plot is linear it can be hard to follow at times. Check out its sequel too.

7. Soul Plane
Soul Plane is just as good a film as any mentioned here though it’s massively underappreciated and overlooked. Many of the people that watch stoner comedies have never heard of or seen Soul Plane; the reason Soul Plane is overlooked is because it was released at a time when Hollywood was churning out lots of stoner comedies. Because of this it was missed by a lot of people and didn’t get the attention that it deserved. There are streaming services and online movie websites that specialize in this genre so if you are interested in watching them it’s worth signing up for one. Such services tend to charge reasonable prices and have lots of different films on offer.

Stoner comedies can be the best films to watch when you are high. If you enjoy comedy films then you are guaranteed to enjoy them; the films listed here are usually considered the best of them but there are many others beyond them for you to check out that are just as good.
