MovieChat Forums > Super High Me (2008) Discussion > Proof Doug Benson inhales!!!

Maybe he does in that link, but 95% of the time in the movie "Super High Me" he doesn't.

Anyone over the age of 20 can tell you that.

IMDB seems to be overrun with extremely unknowledgeable 13 year olds.

reply

Maybe he just couldn't inhale in front of the camera?

reply

What movie were you watching? How do you think he didn't inhale.

The Happening 4/10
Get Smart 6/10

If you don't know the difference then there is no help for you.

reply

wtf are you talking about china creek? even if they didnt actually show him inhale or exhale the smoke (which im pretty sure they did) are you actually doubting that he did? I mean he made a movie about smoking weed.. im pretty sure he actually smoked it in the process..

reply

I don't know what level of reading comprehension students in OKC have, but my post "Maybe he does in that link, but 95% of the time in the movie "Super High Me" he doesn't." does not oppose your posted views.

reply

Maybe you should watch the movie again. Or read the definition of inhale.

reply

If the definition of inhale is pull it into your mouth and puff those cheeks out.

reply

hmm. I don't often puff my cheeks out at all. Who needs THAT much pot smoke in the mouth at a time? Then again, I refuse to smoke crap pot (good pot is cheap enough, anyway in BC)

reply

"Who needs THAT much pot smoke in the mouth at a time?"


Um, who needs ANY smoke in their MOUTH?

It's supposed to go into your lungs.

haha you too scared to insult him in english?

reply

I think its his signature.

reply

Yea, wow I just watched the video and his hit is SO WEAK. That girl ripped 100 times harder than he did. It took him like 4 tries to clear the chamber and he still coughed and you could tell the other people were like WTF is this amateur doing...

reply

definetly didnt inhale....I shut the movie off like 3/4ths the way through it becuase I cant stand people faking being intoxicated, high etc.

It would have been interesting movie if he had taken some smoke to his lungs, but now it's just a waist of time. Well i did learn something about CA laws.

BTW, that big transparent bag that he "inhales" every morning doesn't seem to get much smaller. Even if he would have really bad lungs, he should be able to inhale it with two or three breaths. Kind of stupid to have that kind(you can estimate the size) of bag in the movie if you are going to fake.

reply

Yea he definitely doesn't inhale through the entire movie. But I can't see why he would avoid inhaling in front of the camera. If I ever see him in person I'm going to call him out on it.

p.s. as an avid pot smoker i wish 4:20 would just go away. I think it's an overrated tradition.

reply

I agree with the majority. I kept saying to my girlfriend, "but he isn't even inhaling the stuff", as we watched it last night. I've never seen anything so rediculous before.

Pot comic maybe, non pot smoker. It's like the writer of the show "Weeds", who doesn't smoke the stuff, and I'm pretty sure never has.

"The devil is amongst us!"

reply

i smoke a lot and the first time I had a vapouriser, it took me a lot of tokes to clear it. I did notice a lot of the film he wasnt inhaling but then again I still enjoyed it. The comedy was good and overall it was a laugh

reply

"Oh man, i'm such a hardcore stoner. Oh man, I'm so cool. Oh man, oh man. If you don't know what a vaporizer is, you're not a true stoner... look at that weak hit, man."

I hate stoners that treat pot the same way frat boys treat beer. Seriously, learn to have some fun, you losers. If there's anything pot isn't about, it's not about having a freaking competition all the time.

reply

damn straight. weed is for smoking and for everyone. share the wealth and the knowledge

reply

Ya but make sure it goes into your lungs and you're not a fake moron like Doug Benson.

reply

It's not about having a competition, but if you make a movie about being high 24/7, and you're the stoner of the year... I'd expect more of him.
I have some friends who smoke one little hit and get super high, good for them, wish I could, my wallet would be grateful. But this guy is faking, lying.
And it has nothing to do with not being able to smoke on camera. Other persons in the movie (as Sarah Silverman or the prince of weed) had no problems hitting some.

reply

I can't be sure he inhaled in the movie. But I can be sure he has. If you see his standup he smokes on stage and will invite people to come up and smoke with him. So if you're standing right there you can be sure. You can't call him a "non-smoker"

I am Jack's pickled dreams.

reply

I think he normally inhales, but he didn't to make pot look less harmful in the tests? Or he was too high to remember to inhale...

reply

its not about competition retard. he just doesnt exhibit the competence that someone who claims to be such an avid smoker would have. to dumb it down for you, hes fake

reply

he doesinhale heswallows the smoke i used to do that it gets u equally as high

reply

Sorry chinacreek, but your argument is pretty weak. What would Doug Benson have to gain by only pretending to inhale, while making this movie? I've seen lots of people inhale the drug, and there is not a specific set of actions that are obvious to know if one has actually inhaled. He also uses a vaporizer. Inhaling vapor is much easier than smoke.

reply

he hit that like a *beep* pussy

I saw that the link wasn't working so here is the legit one.

LOL I actually came to Imdb to see if anyone mentioned this.

All throughout the movie he stores the smoke in his cheeks then exhales immediately, without ever actually inhaling properly.

Im not saying he's not a real smoker, but maybe he wasn't allowed to actually smoke on camera. Who knows.

You don't need to smoke weed or tobacco yourself to notice that he looked like one of those non smoking actors.

reply

Dude, not everybody smokes the exact same way. I have a buddy who hits the blunt the exact way Doug does. He takes in a huge hit in his mouth to the point that it puffs his cheeks out like a chipmunk, then he inhales it. It looks kinda funny (especially if you're stoned), but it's how he smokes.

And even IF Doug wasn't inhaling every time, he was still getting high. You could tell sometimes. Dude looked baked out of his skull on several occasions, especially the first day after his 30 days of not smoking.

The world is yours & everything in it. Its out there; get on your grind & get it.

reply


Except when you inhale, you no longer have puffed out cheeks. Watching Benson, you can clearly see in many scenes that he is storing it in his mouth and holding his breath, not inhaling.

Check this link.... Howard Marks smoking with a couple of rastafarians. Check how they take a hit. Listen to what Howard says.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyLzhM0aHb0 [3:00 onwards really]

People smoke in a variety of ways. THC is absorbed through the nasal mucus linings and the cheeks too.

Now take a deep breath, have a cup of tea and stop taking life so seriously. Watch the rest of Howard maybe... =)

reply

in the movie he doesn't just smoke weed. he also eats it. so he's for sure high.

reply

Is this a joke? Wow this must be some revelation

reply

no, he has this thing where he doesn't properly inhale when he smokes. it's like he doesmn't know how to smoke. he doesn't take a full hit he just takes the smoke in his mouth and blows out a full cloud like he thinks a big cloud of smoke looks cool of something.. but no, thats what's suppose to go into your lungs first. i wish someone would call him on it..

i don't know if any of you watch his youtube podcast/show getting doug with high but each show it's the same thing. he takes huge rips and never really takes a full hit. it's very annoying to watch this guy smokes. then all of his fans treat him like he is the top dog stoner.

reply

I can totally understand where this comes from, I've watched this numerous times, and it's just a poorly shot, poorly edited scene when he takes his first rip from the vap (Also his first vap rip ever) and his acne-scarring/facial hair combo is also disconcerting in a close up, but that's another issue entirely. The background of when he finally exhales it is white in non-optimal brightness/contrast so we don't even see anything to contrast the whiteness of the smoke, and this is annoying simply because this is the big moment, the bit when he's supposed to be in weed heaven, but the way it's filmed, the anti-climatic nature of a vap (I think they should have just had him take a big fat bong hoot, much easier to film and would guarantee we'd see it.

I'm not even a big Doug Benson fan, he seems like one of those mediocre stand-up comedians who desperately clings at a gimmick like "pot-comic" in order to hide the fact there's not much else about his act. Stoners are very easy to market too, especially the ones who make weed their identity/signifier.
