So this sucks. My safari just suddenly poofed on me and i have to redo it. Hopefully explorer is better.
I just got back from James' house. it was a night to get completely taken and watch some baked comedies (no pun intended)..
We first saw "not another teen movie", which really really sucked. It had a few haha kinda of moments, but nothing to tell the grandkids later kinda quality.
Luckily, for the 2nd movie i had more stuff and we were ready to roll: Half-Baked.
The beginning of half baked was wicked b/c the main guy, Dave charo (or something) totally has a connection with the stoners only. It's so cool b/c only Dave is the true stoners and the other 3 guys are just actors. they are just for the mainstream public to laugh at the fit in. There were some KEY parts in this flik that just shows that it was only made when in the high mindset.
The fact that the girlfriend's name was Mary Jane and she was an anti-MJ person, was mindblowing. It was so much deeper t han a regular person would think if they don't konw the stoner language. Dave's inner struggle "I have to give it up to get you" is so intense because, how can you give something up for that same thing? giving up me to get me? MINDBLOWING.
And he resourcefulness was uncanny, and whatever i thought he totally knew man, b/c that was the connection. Like when he was only down to 25 cents, he took about $3.50 from the vendor.. but man, the opportunity just came into my head, EXACLTLY when dave was too.. and he seized the moment! where many would have failed. Incredible.
Unfortunately, at the end of the movie something happened man. May be dave got shafted and couldn' finish the movie, b/c it suddenly ended so fast. I lost my connection and it was at the point where james asks me "dude, was that the climax?" (refering to when they got their friend out of Jail).
But overall it's still a must see to just experience that weednection. I still give it a geekly thumbs up, but nothing to crap your pants and remember to tell your grandkids over.
Take Care,
