Have you ever watched cheech and chong?
Review of "Up in Smoke" (1978):

Up in Smoke is Cheech & Chong's first drugged-out shot at making a movie and boy, is it fun. The plot is loosely held together in between comedy sketches, drug busts, the continual search for a little green bag and a rather amusing Tom Skerrit as a whacked out Vietnam vet. Pedro (Cheech) and Man Stoner (Chong) meet on the Pacific Coast Highway as Chong tries to hitch a ride. They smoke a lot of dope, get arrested, look for some more weed and eventually get deported. Their adventure takes them to Mexico and they are soon hired to smuggle, what they think is illegally upholstered furniture, into the U.S. The "illegally upholstered furniture" actually turns out to be a van made out of $9 billion dollars worth of pot. Of course, their van catches fire and the highjinks ensue. The "science" behind how you can make a van, or anything else for that matter, out of marijuana is one of the funniest scenes in the flick.

Up in Smoke was directed and produced by Lou Adler and written by Cheech & Chong. This is highly entertaining and very funny premium grade stuff and should be right up there on your list of favorite guilty pleasures.
