The Perfect Blend: 5 Cannabis Strains to Complement Your Summer Blockbuster Marathon

This is a huge summer for cinephiles and stoners alike so if you’re into getting high and going to the movies this is the definitive list of what to toke and what to watch. 

1. Asteroid City and a Blue Alien joint

Getting high and watching any Wes Andersen film is the peak experience for me, his gorgeous sets and engaging editing are perfect for drawing you into a fully immersive experience after hitting a mellow indica Blue Alien joint. Blue Alien is on the lower-end THC wise which will help you stay calm and cool in the theatre and put you in the perfect sedated state to watch the pretty colors on the big screen. 

2. Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse and a Black Widow Blunt

Everyone loves to watch an animated movie after getting baked out of their minds, and the newest animated Spider-man is a feast for the eyes. Full of canon character events this is a great excuse to get five of your closest friends together and hit the blunt until you’re all too high to talk to a cashier, thank god for those self-service ticket kiosks.  

3. Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny and The Whip

While the first three Indiana Jones are among the greatest action films ever made the last time he was in theaters I would’ve needed to be high off my ass to enjoy it, it is unclear yet how Dial of Destiny will turn out so I would advise fittingly to let yourself get hit by the volcano whip. An eighth of any strain turned completely to vapor and coming straight at your lungs in a continuous stream will guarantee a good time at the movies even if the 80-year-old action star can’t perform at his peak. 

4. The Flash and a 100mg Edible

The biggest on-screen disaster of the year requires the biggest edible you can find, while he goes fast you will go slow, maybe you won’t notice the awful video game cutscene CGI and be able to forget all the awful stuff Ezra Miller has gotten up to if your eyes are as red as his suit. If it kicks before you get there and you pass out before showtime well it's not the end of the world.

5. Barbenheimer and The Bong

This is the cinema event of the year, I’m of course referring to the Barbie Oppenheimer double feature. With Christopher Nolan’s latest passion project about the development of the atomic bomb releasing on the exact same day as Greta Gerwig’s incredibly pink adaptation of the famous toy it only makes sense to see them back-to-back, the only question is in what order and with what accompaniment. My recommendation is to take a gentle hit from your prettiest bubbler ideally of something light and fruity such as mimosa or strawberry lemonade both uplifting sativas to help you embrace your inner child while in the Barbie world. After the credits roll take some time to bask in the afterglow before assembling a discreet gravity bong and loading up some atomic bomb, a euphoric hybrid to help you bear witness to the creation of the weapon which may still one day destroy us.
