In these days of the COVID-19 pandemic, many of us are working from home in social isolation, and in desperate need of entertainment and escape. As professional sports, live music shows, and festivals like SXSW have been cancelled or postponed, we know you’re looking for ways to pass the time.
Leafly to the rescue!
We’ve assembled a list of 75 of our favorite stoner movies. Whether you define a stoner flick as a movie about stoners or a movie you happen to enjoy watching while stoned, we’ve got you covered.
Don’t want to waste precious viewing time searching Hulu or Netflix? We’ve organized our list according to streaming service. We’ve also noted which movies pass the Bechdel test for our stoner feminist crowd.
