First Poster for Hulu's 'Pizza Movie' - High college students face an unexpectedly absurd journey when they must navigate two flights of stairs to retrieve their pizza delivery, turning a simple task into a surreal adventure.

This genre has absolutely stayed alive, specifically if you scroll through the Netflix comedy selection. Most people stop watching them because they kinda suck if you aren't of the group depicted or it holds any nostalgia.

Eurotrip and sex drive (less deservedly) never get enough mention in this genre

Oh my GOODNESS I forgot about Accepted! What a great film that was. Idk if it’s underrated or not in this day and age but I adored it when it came out. I gotta go find it now.

Accepted is goated with the saus

Do you want to get naked and start a revolution?

my dude, this is just "Harold and Kumar" with white people

Didn't a lot of "modern" stoner movies happen before the 2008 crisis? Like 2000 - 2007 era?

First time around we got Newt Gingrich and the Tea Party. So odds are 50%? Edit:spelling

I like your thinking. I grew up on stupid humor and I turned out f****** awesome!

I mean, considering more young people eat gummies than drink alcohol now, it makes sense.

Technically it's both.

Stoop Kids afraid to leave his stoop!

i too am in this comment section

There's actually just one guy in Minnesota who does all media critique

I guess I am bc I tend to think "we need more mid budget movies" but I also had a viscerally negative reaction to this poster.

When I watched the preview that was my first reaction but this generation desperately needs their moment. Just let em have this. If you watched Harold and Kumar when it came out then chances are you're nearing or past 40. I know we still feel like kids but there's millennial grandparents now.

"Harold and the Stranger Things kid go to Pizza Hut"

So many of those movies were garbage, though. 10 stoner / teen comedies would get a theatrical release every year. (Lord knows how many more were straight to video, how many died in pre production, or how many scripts were written and rejected outright, etc..) Maybe there'd be 1 or 2 good ones per year that had legs and became memorable. You can't expect to strike gold taking 1 or 2 shots per year.

If they were considered "garbage except when high" at the time, I don't think they could do any worse. Even that humor was considered dumb at the time and for a lot of those movies, has aged much worse than whatever they can come up with and somehow the premise is totally relatable.

I wonder if Anthony Anderson hears this often.

“Did Neal Patrick Harris just steal my f****** car?” *silent pause* “I believe so, yes.”

POISON GAS!!!

Cockmeat sandwiches became a joke in my group of buddies.

People aren't watching the trailer and just see "Pizza" and "High", assumes weed. I thought it would be nice as a stoner flick, but this just looks awful.

i love this one because college humor/dropout fans recognize grant, which then leads people to realize that nick was his roommate who fed sam all the information behind [true facts about grant anthony o’brien.](https://youtu.be/DcX_lXP977g)

Immediately the description made me think "what if we made a harold and Kumar movie, but contained within the one scene where the turn around to go back to their apartment and decide they've gone too far to turn back"

It’s basically that HIMYM episode where Ted and Marshal get ripped and try to find the bathroom at the stadium.

Every generation needs their stupid fun movies. They're never masterpieces but they still stay with you.

So many people are mad about the ending to the show that they're taking it out on the actors themselves, as if it's their fault. Never mind that most of them are good at their job and one was literally nominated for a Tony last year, they must all fail so they feel vindicated in being mad about a TV show about 20 year old high school students fighting interdimensional aliens.

Yeah, I don't get the whole "this proves his career is in the dumpster!" comments. Dude literally was placing in theatre contests at age 9, was in a serious role in Les Mis on Broadway and Tony-nominated before Stranger Things, and is still classically trained in musical theater. He seems happy in comedy and is now just doing his wacky college shit. Reminds me of how people clutched their pearls when Daniel Radcliffe was in his avant-garde theater / Equus / weird movie era at the end of Harry Potter and thought that would ruin his career. Let him make some fun stupid movies, sheesh. People forget Chris Evans was in Not Another Teen Movie a decade before Captain America, and Not Another Teen was just as dumb as a stoner flick. And no one would ever say Jack Black's career is in the dumpster for doing nothing but fun stupid movies this entire time.

It is!

He’s directly to the right of Gaten in the poster lol

Someone has not seen Swiss Army Man

By "there's no way" I hope you mean "he would absolutely do it." 😆

Daniel Radcliffe and Elijah Wood have a competition on who can do the most weird movies

I mean, he did Guns Akimbo and he's also in an NBC sitcom with Tracy Morgan. Dude is down for weird. Didn't he also do a n*** stage play where he's in love with a horse or something, too?

Hey, if Donald Glover is Yoshi in the Mario movie...

And THATs called a blatent ripoff BROTHER. Copyright infringement DUDE.

of course, you had to traverse the entire length of the universe to take a pee!

You know that scene in Jurassic Park where Dr Alan is laying on the Triceratops as its breathing in and out. One time during a shroom trip I laid on the ground in my room for hours because I thought my floor was breathing and it felt like that moment in Jurassic Park. My friends said I was breathing and I looked happy so they left me there.

Sorry to break it to you, but you're actually still on the trip. The lamp is Saturn, the door is a black hole and the carpet is def expanding

One day I did acid with my friends in a small mountain town. We bought little cap guns from the local grocery store and hiked into the mountains on an expedition to discover the west

"I don't want to alarm you, but there may be a boogeyman or boogey*men* in the ~~house~~ woods."

Yeah, same here. That needs to be made immediately.

Kevin: "Brad! How did you turn the our broken sauna into a space ship?!?" Brad, stoned: "ohhhh i dunno buddy but I'm pretty sure we're off campus" Yang, quasi-racist token Asian character: "Wait! Somone's comeing" Topless woman: "WHO DARE'S ENTER THE KINGDOM OF TITTIES! ARE YOU SPYS FROM THE B*** EMPIRE!.... by the goddess... men?!!?"

The latter. Plot twist: No women.

Ryan's also a great straight man imo.

I feel like there's only so much you can do if there's no special setting or something. For example, what do you think would be a fitting alternative name for John Wick? Dog avenger? Revenge man? Master killer?
