Part 5: • Cheech Marin on Becomi...
Part 1: • Cheech Marin on Growin...
--------
Cheech Marin of the comedy duo Cheech and Chong spoke about the success and challenges they experienced after their first film became a success in the late 70s. Cheech revealed that even though the film "Up in Smoke" had a small budget of around $800,000, the film was a box office hit, earning $104 million. Despite mixed reviews, the audience's response was positive, bolstering the duo's confidence in their work. Cheech recognized their film as one of the pioneers of the stoner movie genre despite only a small percentage of their material referencing marijuana use. Their success allowed them to explore this new genre, inspiring future films such as the well-loved "Friday" series. The shift from audio performances to film made them international stars, with offers for solo acting gigs. However, Cheech was resistant, preferring to keep the successful comedy duo intact. Eventually, creative differences led to the duo’s split, which lasted for 20 years.

Cheech should do a seen where they use an old clip when he was young and make it about a rough night and he goes to bed young and wakes up old.

I was 10 years old when I first watched cheech and Chong and then I watched it when I first smoked for the first time when I was 15 and it was the funniest movie I had ever watched. Now that I’m almost 50 I think it’s still the best stoner movie ever but everyone has their own favorite.

It's funny to hear people refer to Friday ('95) as 'Fridays'; Cheech here & C-Tucker def always does in other intv's. Although I understand there's multiple sequels, it seems they're referring to the original, pluralizing the title.

@treedillinger5801 8 месяцев назад

Nah, very different. That movie was about an entire generation and a cultural revolution. Cheech and Chong started this genre which would later include movies like Half Baked, Pineapple Express, Harold and Kumar, Mac and Devin etc. A more recent comparison to Easy Rider would be American Pie. I’d say the difference is the POV: looking at a whole cultural landscape vs the day to day idlings of the stoner.

@treedillinger5801 8 месяцев назад

@@seanfrank32 Dazed and Confused fits perfectly, yes. I thought about it after. I could see your point about American Pie but I still thinks in with the others in terms of zooming out and capturing the feeling of a generation at a significant time in history when things are changing quickly 1969 vs 1999). But I get your Porky’s comparison in terms of subject matter.
