Hollywood has a subgenre of movies that they rarely like to mention. It is a subgenre of comedy films that feature marijuana as the center of the story. It’s called stoner films.
Stoner films have been around since 1969 when a little film called Easy Rider introduced recreational use of marijuana on film. It started something that continues to be a part of film-making today.
From Cheech and Chong to The Big Lebowski, stoner films, good or bad, have given stoners something to enjoy while…well…also enjoying marijuana. One could even argue that stoner films are made specifically for people who are high. But you can judge for yourself.
Here are some of the best quotes from stoner movies for your toking pleasures.
