<p>If you can’t make it out to a 4/20 gathering this year, why not pack that trusty pipe of yours and tune in to <a href="http://g4tv.com/thefeed/blog/post/694708/G4-Celebrates-420.html" target=_blank />G4 for a night of ganjavision</a> and the best of the best stoner movies out there!</p>
<p><strong>@ 7:00 pm</strong>, <em>Attack of the Show</em> will broadcast a 420 special -– Kevin Periera will be heading down under to do some research on Australia’s marijuana laws and kick it with the residents of Nimbin; a small village where the weed is plentiful and the vibes are irie. Chris Hardwick will be here in the US, doing some investigation on tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), and Alison Haislip and comedian Doug Benson will be up at Oaksterdam University. AOTS will also be attending the Cannabis Cup in Amsterdam, celebrating and smoking the world’s best weed.</p>
<p><strong>@ 8:00 pm</strong>, you can enjoy one of the most popular stoner movies, <em>Half Baked</em>.</p>
<p><strong>@ 10:00 pm</strong>, is Doug Benson’s <em>Super High Me</em> -– akin to Morgan Spurlock’s <em>Supersize Me</em>. Benson shows what happens when you smoke marijuana everyday for a month (sounds like a pretty average month to me).</p>
<p><a href="http://twitter.com/g420" target=_blank />Over at G420</a>, there will be news, videos, special features, Doug Benson popping in to visit here and there. So pop in a tray of brownies, spark up a bleezy and relax with some quality programming!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div style="text-align:center;"><img src="http://thefreshscent.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/screening-map-sm1.jpg" alt="screening_map_sm.jpg" border="0" width="420" height="238" /></div>
<p>According to the <a href="http://www.superhighmemovie.com/news/420-events-all-wrapped-up/">Super High Me</a> staff, the experimental &#8220;Roll Your Own Screenings&#8221; approach to their movie release has been extremely successful.</p>
<p>With an expected total of 40,000 release-day viewers (both public and private screenings), Super High Me has done an impressive job of coordinating a grassroots promotion campaign.</p>
<p>Having seen the movie myself, I was thoroughly entertained.  And, coincidentally, thoroughly high.</p>
<p>The Doug Benson documentary covered more areas than I expected, especially the physical &amp; mental tests that he had to undergo during the pre-smoke and post-smoke months.  Although not the most scientifically convincing, they show that a functional adult with a higher than average appetite for marijuana is at no significant disadvantage.</p>
<p>His comedy was great throughout both the sober and non-sober tests, and I&#8217;m bummed no tFS staff could make it to his 4/20 show at the Laugh Factory in LA.  My only complaint might be that the ending was abrupt.  Instead of a quick synopsis or a &#8220;what I&#8217;ve learned&#8221; piece, Super High Me cuts out right after the 31st day of smoking is finished.</p>
<p>Then again, if that&#8217;s my singular complaint about a movie, the director &amp; producer have done a damn good job.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;ve seen Super High Me, let us know what you thought.  Until we get Doug to do 30 days of Smoking for tFS, this is the best it&#8217;s going to get for one of our favorite comedians.</p>
