THE STöNED AGE


It's about a couple of dudes who drink, get high and fuck. They fuck chicks, not each other. Came out around the same time as Dazed And Confused, so it was generally ignored. I'll write a review later, I've got to get pissed off my ass so that I can truly enjoy the Superbowl tonight. Go fuck yourself.

OK, so the story here is, well I actually sorta already summed it up rather well but what the fuck. The year is 1970..80.. 90-something??? OK so the year is never clearly established, I think it's supposed to be the 70's (which is where The Dazed and Confused comparisons come from) but every one's dressed like it's 80's, except for the two main characters who kinda look like extras from a Pearl Jam video, but none of that is really important. So Joe and Hubs are told about a couple of girls by some loser that they know named Tack. The chicks are only in town for a couple of days or something, one of them is a really hot Kelly Bundy look-a-like and the other is, well not. Joe and Hubs ditch their loser buddy and go after the girls themselves, but as they find out in order to fuck the hot one they need to get her drunk. And that's pretty much the first half of the movie, in the second half they, Tack, and just about everyone else tries to get into both chicks' pants. Watch for the shitty cameos by Frankie Avalon, and a couple of members of Blue Oyster Cult. I'm leaving out a lot of detail as to not give too much away, but if you feel like sitting down with a couple of beers and not thinking too hard for about 90 minutes or so this is the movie for you.

And as for it's frequent comparison to Dazed and Confused? There is no comparison. It's apples and oranges. The Stoned Age is practically a cartoon, a slapstick comedy where Dazed and Confused is I don't want to say realistic, but truer to life.

Anyways, The Stoned Age, a respectable 7.0 on the zuel scale.
