IMDB rating: 7.60 Plot: Lazy stoner Dale Denton has only one reason to visit his equally lazy dealer Saul Silver: to purchase weed, specifically, a rare new strain called Pineapple Express. But when Dale becomes the only witness to a murder by a crooked cop and the city’s most dangerous drug lord, he panics and dumps his roach of Pineapple Express at the scene. Dale now has another reason to visit Saul: to find out if the weed is so rare that it can be traced back to him. And it is. As Dale and Saul run for their lives, they quickly discover that they’re not suffering from weed-fueled paranoia; incredibly, the bad guys really are hot on their trail and trying to figure out the fastest way to kill them both. All aboard the Pineapple Express. |

How many movies have used real marijuana?
There are so many movies about pot. So many that it has created its own genre of films. My question, though, is how many of those movies actually have its characters smoking actual pot? I know in the 60s movie Easy Rider, Jack Nicholson actually gets high in the scene. With movies like Pineapple Express and etc, where the it is marijuana-themed, why wouldn’t producers allow the actors to smoke a joint? I mean smoking a little isn’t gonna make you forget that your making a movie right now. The actor just has to have some skill in improvisation.
djaca70, yes jack nicholson is actually getting high in Easy Rider. and pineapple express is marijuana-themed, seeing as the theme of the movie is about the stupid shit people do when they’re stoned. and finally, the reason why movies are in production for so long is because they do about one scene per day. so the actor would be fine after they nail the scene. and if the actor is portraying someone high, why not film someone who is actually high? its not like their gonna give the stoned character some epic line
depends how strong the weed is lol if its strong theyll just start to laugh

Really, Jack Nicholson is actually getting high, and Pineapple Express is marijuana themed? I think you might have been under the ganja when writing this question. Do you know how many takes it may take to "nail the scene?" First of all, it is against the law, and if the actors were actually smoking weed, how would they work the rest of the day?
