Good to watch high?

Well a big part of it will depend on whether you use Sative or Indica strains. One might make you analyze it to death while the other might cause you to miss portions due to going in and out of sleep or running to the kitchen for food.

If you wish to remember and understand what you have seen, formulate any meaningful ideas about what you have seen, or discuss the film in any meaningful way with anyone at any time in the future, I would strongly advise against seeing this (or any other) film "high."

To say that any meaningful idea's cannot be formulated or expressed "high", weed or otherwise is ridiculous. I dont condone taking drugs but I just as strongly believe that taking drugs does not make anything you formulate or create any less meaningful. You think David Bowie was sober when he acted in this film? They don't call him the "Thin White Duke" for nothing. Smoke a joint and listen to The Beatles, Doors, Led Zep, Stevie Wonder, Kinks, Killers etc and you might be able to get your absurd point of view changed. You think film makers, Script writers etc have not been affected by the drugs they have taken, and communicated that in their films? perhaps not directly but I know they do. However, if you really believe what your saying you need to mellow out and smoke a doobie buddy. I don't think this would be a particularly good film to watch high, but this is only because I was underwhelmed by this film as a whole, not to say i didn't enjoy it. It's another movie taking a grim view of the world through the eyes of an outside perception.

Most movies do seem to be better when you're drunk or high. If you're in a better mood, it just enhances the experience. But it does make it harder to remember afterward.
However, I had a friend who watched Ridley Scott's Robin Hood while high and said it was still terrible and boring, so some films are beyond the power of MJ.
On The Man Who Fell to Earth, I dunno. That could go either way. It kinda seems like the director was high already, so maybe a double high would mess things up ? -

I watched this while on what bowie was on while making it, many times, tempered with Gin and valium..very pleasantjust saw it straight on TV mind, and a wonderfully eccentric and layered movie whatever you're on..

YES! But you have to be used to getting high. If your a newbie it's best to watch a favorite you've seen multiple times. Then you get to see it again for the first time, again. It's the same with music, people that don't puff should listen to their favorite album and I promise it will be an altogether new experience. To many people demonize the sweet leaf, all movies are better with a quality nug, late at night. It's the best way to be drawn in to the writers and director's vision without all the stress distractions that are nearly impossible to turn off. It truly is the best medicine. No joke! Take care
