Who doesn’t smoke weed these days? It is very popular and people are enjoying their Mary Jane daily. Walk the streets of NYC and try not to smell it for 10 blocks. With all the stresses in people's lives, smoking some weed and getting high calms people down. You can sit on the couch for hours without even knowing how much time has passed. A big part of being high is the state of apathy that occurs and watching a movie while high is always a blast, except if it is a horror film. Don’t watch Sinister while high... trust me. Another one to stay away from is Playtest and the Black bear on Black Mirror.

Marvel movies, in particular, are great for watching stoned due to the vast nature of them. Giant explosions, larger-than-life characters, and boundless universes allow viewers to take their high to the next level. These are our favorites to watch, and how high you should get for them. Sit back, zone out, and grab your nearest smoking utensil.

But when he discovers the orb's true power and the cosmic threat it poses, Quill must rally his ragtag group to save the universe.
