is incredibly subdued in the Disney-fied
classic animated film, it is bright and happy
and full of lovely images to keep you content
through your 420 celebrations. Even with
this toned-down version of the classic story,
it’s not a great leap to link it to using sub-
stances: Alice after all chases a magical white
rabbit to another world, eats a mysterious
cookie that makes her larger then drinks
some liquid that makes her small enough
to float away on her own tears. Pretty trippy
even for Disney. Stream it on Disney+ or
rent it from Amazon Prime, Google Play,
iTunes, Vudu or YouTube.
“Big Trouble in Little China” (1986) —
Part fantasy, part action-comedy the mar-
tial arts-driven John Carpenter film sees a
sweaty, tank-top-wearing Kurt Russell take
on mystic Chinese warrior groups in the
heart of San Francisco’s Chinatown. Full of
goofy premises and awesome fights with a
killer synth-rock score that is so perfectly
’80s, the film has gone from box office
bomb to a cult favorite. Stream it on You-
Tube or rent it on Amazon Prime, Google
Play, iTunes or Vudu.
“Kung Fu Hustle” (2004) — Another mar-
tial arts action-comedy but this one is mixed
with some great cartoonish special effects
that blend so well with the style of comedy
it presents. The film, written, directed and
starring Stephen Chow, follows Sing (Chow)
and his friend Bone (Feng Xiaogang) as they
try and swindle a decrepit neighborhood
into thinking they are members of a notori-
ous gang. When the real gang shows up, they
have no idea that actual kung fu masters live
there and will do anything to defend their
home. Rent it on Amazon Prime, Google
Play, iTunes, Vudu or YouTube.
“Our Planet” (2019) — Really any nature
documentary is a nice addition to a day of
binging and baking, but this one includes
the smooth narration of Sir David Attenbor-
ough. The documentary explores the Earth’s
natural beauty but includes the impact that
climate change is having on these gorgeous
locations and animals. Stream it on Netflix.
“Wet Hot American Summer” (2001)
— The satire plays on the tropes of classic
1980s camp movies while it hilariously fol-

lows the counselors of Camp Firewood as
they go about the last day of the summer.
The movie has it all, with pent-up hor-
mones, sex, drugs, rock and roll, a falling
NASA satellite, an epic talent show, talking
vegetable cans and so much more. It’s one
of those dumbly brilliant comedies that you
either hate or love. And as a bonus it’s filled
with a ton of comedians that would go on to
illustrious careers as well as amazing char-
acter actors all thrown together. You’ll never
hear Jefferson Starship’s “Jane” the same way
again. Stream it on Showtime or Peacock
or rent it on Amazon Prime, Google Play,
iTunes, Vudu or YouTube.
Bonus: Any Christopher Nolan Movie —
Seriously. Between trippy stories and cool
edits, they’re bound to blow your mind.
Well, maybe don’t try this with “Dunkirk,”
that seems like a bad combination.
