When Kiefer first suggested we watch Hansel and Gretel Get Baked on Netflix Instant Viewing, I was stoked. The title was a pun! Puns equal greatness….sometimes.
Normally, stoner movies are not my thing, but this movie was actually funny. Plus, Cary Elwes is in it…in disguise.
Here’s what I learned:
- I don’t do drugs, but even I would be tempted by a chocolatey one called “Black Forest.”
- Hansel and Gretel’s parents often go on weekend getaways with the Stiltskins.
- If an old lady tells you not to eat her gingerbread house, don’t eat her gingerbread house. If you do, she will eat you.
Resist! Resist!
- Any little old lady from Pasadena that deals drugs is a witch.
- Don’t leave Skittles behind as markers to find your way. Someone (a stoner) will eat them, and you will get lost.
Most importantly, I learned not to do drugs. Ever. Unless you want to be eaten by a witch and turned into a zombie.

Who knew stoner movies could be so educational? And please tell me that Cary Elwes said “as you wish” at least once. Because . . . seriously.

I didn’t even realize it was him at first, but I think if he’d said that, I’d have immediately recognized him.

I’m of the personal opinion that you should always stay away from gingerbread house. Of all of the bread houses that exist in the world, they’re the least likely to have a soul.

I am amazed by the movies you find on Netflix. Have you watched Orange is the New Black yet? I know it’s popular, but I started it over the weekend and really liked it.

Kiefer and I started watching it a couple weeks ago. We like it, too!

amazing the truth you discover in children’s stories, i guess adults are just big children, wouldn’t mind a brownie with special ingredients

I’ve never heard of this movie, but it sounds like one that would give me the munches.

My friend put me on her Netflix family account, but I have yet to watch anything substantial…like this. Must find some D list movies STAT!

It was weird because it should have been a B movie, but it had some big names in it.

Holy crap. I’d leave a better comment, but the longer I take here, the more time that stands between me and this movie.

You had me at Cary Elwes Stoner Movie.

That would have made such a better anti-drug PSA than “Just say no.”
“Don’t do drugs or you’ll be eaten by a witch and walk the earth as the undead.” That’s got Clio Award written all over it.

I’ve not heard of this movie but it makes me want to visit the vending machine.

Um, why would you EVER put a Skittle on the ground. Someone should eat them and then kick your ass. Too violent? I feel passionate about the rainbow.
October 24th, 2013 at 7:36 am
I’m ok with the green apple ones going on the ground.
October 24th, 2013 at 11:49 am
And when I said you, I meant metaphorically. I’d never kick your bass….oh this phone….or your ass :).

Black Forest drugs? Nutbags haha I would be tempted to say yes… 😛

Good to know! Black Forest sounds intriguing, where does one get it? 🙂

Well, you know what they say: people who live in gingerbread houses shouldn’t get stoned.
October 24th, 2013 at 6:44 am
Why are we always so tempted by gingerbread houses? No good ever comes from them. They taste like cardboard.
October 24th, 2013 at 7:36 am
I’m not a fan of them either. Just the candy all over them.
