There are two types of stoned

04:12 AM - 13 Apr 2021

Since you're probably too stoned to make a movie decision, I went ahead and compiled a list for you. No thanks needed, just go ahead and take another hit.

Here are the 20 best movies to watch stoned on 4/20!

1. Friday

Jersey Films / Native Pictures / Via giphy.com

"And you know this, mannnnn." Chris Tucker and Ice Cube created a 420 classic with Friday. Craig loses his job and helps his friend Smokey blaze up a stash that was fronted by Big Worm. Now, they must get the money for Worm or suffer the consequences.

2. Pineapple Express

This is a safe pick. There probably won't be anyone in your 4/20 group that objects to Pineapple Express. This is James Franco and Seth Rogen at their peak funniest. The two friends play stoners who get caught up in a huge plot that sends them on an action-packed adventure.

3. Scary Movie

Before spoof movies got completely played out, Scary Movie set the bar high for the genre. An all-star cast, led by the Shawn and Marlon Wayans, parody some of the most popular horror films of the 80s and 90s.

4. Harold & Kumar Go To White Castle

Is it even 420 if you don't watch at least one of the Harold and Kumar films? A whole bunch of madness takes place as Harold and Kumar try to get some grub. Oh, and of course, NPH.

5. Ted

Seth MacFarlane is Ted, a teddy bear that has come to life as a rude and crude best friend to Mark Wahlberg. This raunchy comedy is perfect if you love irreverent humor.

6. Cheech and Chong Up In Smoke

This is 420 Hall of Fame territory now. Cheech and Chong meet up after the latter leaves home to follow his dreams. If you want that retro stoner vibe, look no further than Up In Smoke

7. Soul Plane

Looking for some cheap laughs? This movie is so bad, it's good. Laugh until you cry as Snoop Dogg, Kevin Hart, Method Man, Mo'nique, and more embark on a soulful plane ride.

8. Dazed and Confused

Has there ever been a better title for a stoner flick? Dazed and Confused follows an ensemble cast of students on their final day of classes. There are just so many quotables here. "Say, man. You got a joint?"

9. How High

Method Man and Redman are the ultimate stoners. How High is one of the most creative pothead flicks ever. These two legendary rappers play prestigious college students who get admitted after smoking the ashes of a genius. Of course, the campus will never be the same.

10. Dude, Where's My Car?

Dude, Where's My Car is as dumb as it sounds. So if completely stupid humor is what you're looking for on 420, this is the right pick. Ashton Kutcher and Seann William Scott have trouble finding their vehicle after a night of wild partying. Of course, getting back to their car is no easy task.

11. The Big Lebowski

This crime comedy is packed with laughs. The Big Lebowski follows Jeff Bridges after a case of mistaken identity gets him entangled in a ransom scheme. This film is wickedly smart as well, making it a great 420 flick for those who like some wit.

12. Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back

Jay and Silent Bob have a few films, but this one satisfies on a whole new level. After Jay and Silent Bob find out that a comic based on them is being adapted for film, they set out to stop its release (or at least get some royalties).

13. Mac & Devin Go to High School

Rap Hub @RapHubDaily

8 years ago today, Snoop Dogg & Wiz Khalifa released their collab album "Mac & Devin Go to High School"

05:16 PM - 13 Dec 2019

Snoop is way too old for high school, no? Mac & Devin Go to High School follows the two most famous stoners in hip hop who play high school students. Snoop introduces Wiz to that good good and it's all hazy from there.

14. True Romance

Want something a little more serious but still good enough for a stoned mind state? Check out True Romance. Written by Quentin Tarantino and directed by Tony Scott, this flick follows an ensemble cast as a couple flees certain death after stealing a drug shipment. And yes, that's Gary Oldman with dreads.

15. Cheech & Chong's Next Movie

C'mon. You know these guys deserve to be on the list twice. The sequel to Up In Smoke finds the two best friends living together and living a chill stoner life. Cheech's Texan cousin Red comes to visit and things spiral from there.

16. Half Baked

A young Dave Chappelle gets his hands on some government-level weed in Half Baked. Unfortunately, his roommate accidentally kills a police horse and Chappelle is forced to sell the potent buds to raise bond money. This is the pinnacle of 420 flicks.

17. Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure

Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter must travel through time to get help from historical figures in order to finish their school project in Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. A cult classic amongst stoners, Bill and Ted may be the feel-good comedy you need this 420.

18. Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay

Yes, Harold and Kumar get two picks as well. The second film in their threequel stepped up the antics and took stoner adventures to the max. Harold and Kumar get caught smoking on a plane, but a crazy government agent thinks that they're terrorists. Now, the two must escape from prison and get a pardon. Fast.

19. Super High Me

Stoner like documentaries too! Super High Me plays off the super popular doc Super Size Me, and explores what happens to the human body after getting high for a month straight.

20. Grandma's Boy

A stoner and video game tester is forced to move in with his granny in this cult classic comedy. Really, there isn't much to say about this one. 10/10 stoner comedy.
