Dude. Dude. DUUUUUDE. While we would never condone taking illegal drugs here at Comedy.com, we know that some of the members of our audience (We’re looking at you, guy in the stained Bloodhound Gang shirt) may occasionally partake in the aromatic pleasures of combustible vegetation. For those enjoy this sinful treat, here are the can’t-miss films of the fall and winter. You must see them… even if you have a tendency to get distracted by shiny objects.
5. “Alice In Wonderland”
Does Johnny Depp even make movies any more that don’t require wearing lots of make-up? Do you think he’s making a political statement about gender roles in the mainstream media? Oh, look! That girl has such pretty hair. Add in the sweet costumes, mushroom-inspired shrinkage and that weird rabbit that won’t stop staring at us, and you have a winner. This film is going to be a-mazing. Feed your head. Rating: 2 Bags of Funyuns and a Coke.
4. “Where The Wild Things Are”
Furries! We love them. We want them to put us in a cute animal costume and take us to AnthroCon. We’re already in line for this movie wearing our Halloween cat ears smoking from a bong made out of our Max action figure. Rating: One bag of Funyuns and a brick of cheese.
3. “The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus”
Holy F-ing F, the trailer made us trip balls. So, apparently, this old dude made a deal with the Devil (Played here, as in real life, by Tom Waits) to do some crazy magic tricks. Excuse us, ILLUSIONS! About 1000 years later, Tom Waits comes to take the dude’s daughter as payment. This movie is so insane, it actually killed Heath Ledger, and they had to bring in Jude Law, Johnny Depp (in make-up!) and Colin Farrell to finish up for him. You remember that, right? Terry Gilliam, who previously made “Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas,” directed this sucker. He must grow fields of dank behind his house or something. Rating: 2 Bags of Funyuns, JuJu Bees, a random half eaten candy bar, an ether-soaked American flag and a couch pillow.
2. “The Lovely Bones”
What happened to awesome, fun, trippy stoner movies? Seriously, we’ve followed Phish around for years, and not once has there been a young girl in mortal danger. (Well, except that one who ate four hemp brownies and then tried to stand on her head for the entirety of “You Enjoy Myself.”) This movie starts with a young girl getting raped and murdered before we even get to the psychedelic afterlife, which is just the sort of thing that’s liable to kill your buzz. Still, it’s directed by the bearded guy behind “Lord of the Rings,” easily one of the greatest pot-sterpieces of all time, so it’s probably worth giving it a try. You can always just cut out and sneak into “All About Steve,” the comic juggernaut which we naturally assume will still be playing in December nationwide. Rating: A bottle of Scotch.
1. “Amelia”
Yeah, there are no cartoony special effects or Snoop Dogg cameos, and it’s based on a true story from American history, which would usually mean zero potential for stoner entertainment. But we’re crushing on Hilary Swank mad hard, y’all. Don’t judge us. Rating: Grocery aisle display of Funyuns, nap on the Wal-mart office couch and an entire container of Tang.
