What happened to "stoner" comedies?
Half-Baked. Happy Gilmore. Billy Madison. Grandma's Boy. Dude, Where's My Car? Where have the movies like this gone? Clerks 3 was, I think, the last good one I've ever seen (and even they got too real and too sad so I don't even know if I ever want to see it again as a comedy). There's gotta be some good, funny shit that's even funnier when stoned out of your mind that's more recent than that, right?
You're viewing a single thread.
Cocaine Bear, Strays, Bad Trip, Barbie, Everything Everywhere all at Once, Marcel the Shell with shoes on, Cats, Inherent Vice, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse
Saving Private Ryan, The Truman Show, NHDTA-613: "If you don't hurry up, you'll have a baby!”, Event Horizon, The Lego Movie

Eraserhead. El Topo. The Holy Mountain. Willy's Wonderland. Angel's Egg. Skinamarink.
Edit: imagine watching something like Skinamarink stoned out of your mind. Holy fuck.
Pulp Fiction. The Godfather part II. Mulan. House of 1000 Corpses. Coffee and Cigarettes. Rocky Horror Picture Show.
Cocaine Bear is possibly the only one on here that fits the "stoner" moniker. But I had forgotten about it and haven't seen it yet.
Everything is a stoner comedy if you're stoned enough according to this guy
It was shit. Somehow they basically tried to make it a drama. It was unbelievably stupid, and not because of the premise, which is saying something.

I don't think we watched the same movie.
Right‽
The movie was unbelievably dumb and personally I loved it! Dunno what that guy wanted/expected out of the movie, but I feel like it delivered on what the title promised me
Cocaine Bear had less emotional drama than This is the End, and that was a literal stoner drama!
Yes, highest rated narrative film on Letterboxd = shit. Perhaps you’re the person who might be out of sync
If Cocaine Bear is the highest rated anything, I'm happy to part with society.
“Possibly” well, literally every movie possibly fits the moniker. All suggestions are objectively solid stoner movies.

Sure, throw Skinamarink on there too. I hear that's a wonderful movie to watch while high.
