A movie about four stoner friends (Dave Chappelle, Jim Breuer, Harland Williams and Guillermo Díaz) living in New York City. One of them feeds a diabetic police horse candy (he didn't know it was diabetic) and is arrested as a cop killer (yes, it's a comedy). The rest of the movie is about how his friends have to raise $1,000,000 to bail him out of jail.
Extremely funny, as long as you don't have a problem with foul language and marijuana use. Jon Stewart recommends you watch it on weeeeed.

- Big Eater: Brian is implied to be one, as his Long List of food he asks for during the munchies would suggest.

Thurgood: Of course, across town, the kid's nanna is getting high to treat her glaucoma. |
