Kevin Smith’s filmography has often featured stoner characters and instances where pot plays a part, especially in his ViewAskewniverse films where he and lifelong friend Jason Mewes play Jay and Silent Bob, two stoners, drug dealers and occasional heroes.
In Mallrats, Jay smokes up a couple of game show contestants to incapacitate them so Jeremy London and Jason Lee’s characters can sub in.
Kevin Smith even wrote and directed a comedy pilot called Hollyweed.
Kevin Smith has gotten away from the stoner type comedies that have made him famous of late, instead focusing on weird, horror-esque films that haven’t always been received that well.
