1. Dazed and Confused
Release Date: 1993
Genre: Comedy, Coming-of-Age
Average Rating: 8.7/10
Dazed and Confused came out in 1993 yet remains one of the best stoner movies of all time. Why? It perfectly captures the nostalgia and shenanigans of 1970s teenagers during their last day of high school. It’s enough to make you wish you were back at college.
The movie has many stoner references and enough weed to knock out an elephant. It features the best ‘70s pop hits, conversations about aliens and George Washington, and Matthew McConaughey’s immortal, “Alright, alright, alright.”
2. The Big Lebowski
Release Date: 1998
Genre: Comedy, Crime
Average Rating: 8.6/10
Sometimes it’s hard being The Dude.
Jeff “The Dude” Lebowski finds himself the target of thugs who attempt to coerce him into paying back a debt. The problem is he knows nothing about any money owed, and the criminals have urinated on his treasured rug.
Cue a funny revenge story where The Dude hunts down who the thugs mistook him for, his namesake, the Millionaire Jeff Lebowski. Perhaps the thieves would be better off learning about the effectiveness of CBD concentrates in staying calm.
Hilarious antics ensue, including bowling balls, an angry Jewish convert, and copious marijuana smoking. The Big Lebowski remains one of the top 10 stoner movies and marks one of Jeff Bridges’ most famous roles.
“The Dude abides.”
