Creature Comforts America

The creators of Wallace and Gromit artfully balance their distinctly offbeat animation and humor with biting criticism of American culture. AKA claymation animals voice the interview answers of real ass Americans. If that doesn’t sound amazing, you’re not high.

X-Men: The Animated Series

Bro listen to this, every episode of the X-Men cartoon from your childhood is on Netflix. And not that I’ve recently watched all of them in sequence, but save your doobage for when Xavier and Magneto go to the Savage Land because that shit makes zero sense, but they ride around on dinosaurs which is boss either way.

The Fall

Tarsem only makes movies for people on drugs. I’ll try to give you a synopsis of this film: there’s, like, a guy in the hospital and he spins a fantastical narrative that leaves the audience questioning the nature of truth and imagination, but, really, you need to be high to understand it. No, I’m not high right now, that would be unprofessional. This is serious, important journalism right here.

DMT: The Spirit Molecule

If you’re in college you’ve definitely heard this conversation 100 times, “Bro, have you heard about DMT? It only exists in your brain when you’re born…and when you die.” “Yeah dude, I heard it takes, like, years for Amazonian tribesmen to procure from the trunk of some crazy tree.” But now that this DMT doc has made it to the "Popular" on Netflix section you can be like, “Bro, DMT was cool in 2009, but the spot is blown. I bet the shit you’re getting isn’t even from real Amazonians.”

Rango

The best movie featuring Johnny Depp in more than a decade is an animated western about a lizard. Don’t let the childish visuals and cliché plot throw you off—shit, you could just disregard this whole list and stick with the "Family" section on Netflix and be set. The director of The Ring peppered this film with enough drug references and subtle social commentary to keep you laughing along with your 8-year-old cousins who are oblivious to your altered state and just stoked to be enjoying a film with their cool older cousin. Real wholesome like.

Jiro Dreams of Sushi

On the plus side, it’s a movie about dank food. On the minus, it’s about incredible dedication, focus and work ethic, which makes you feel even shittier about laying around for days in mustard stained sweatpants. Let the film inspire you to call that artsy girl you always had a crush on in high school and ask her out on a sushi date. She’ll be totally impressed with how college has made you all cultured and knowledgeable about raw fish. When she declines your offer, you settle for some supermarket sushi and spend the rest of break holed up with food poisoning watching X-Men cartoons.

The Art of Flight

Travis Rice and Curt Morgan make the most expensive, dangerous and visually assaulting snowboard movie in history. After watching you’re determined to get back into snowboarding until a bit of initial Google shopping reminds you that it’s a sport exclusively for kids whose parents cover their expenses. Still, you leave the film thinking that peddling caffeinated sugar water to tweens isn’t such a bad thing if it funds epic radical gnar awesomeness such as this.

Ken Burns: The National Parks

Taken aback by the awesome grandeur of our nation’s park system, you’re inspired to experience the beauty for yourself, which you do by reblogging some killer nature photos from Yosemite and never, ever actually visiting a real national park.

30 for 30: Unguarded

If you’ve got a particularly long time to kill, fuck it, just watch all the 30 for 30 episodes available. But if you’ve got to be a bit more frugal with your TV time, gather the whole family around for the story of drug addicted former Celtic Chris Herren and bond over the fact that at least your family isn’t that fucked up. See, it could be worse, mom, I could be doing REAL drugs.

Eames: The Architect and the Painter

Head back to school ready to finally break into the design major crowd you’ve been floating on the periphery of for months. That mysteriously bomb Asian girl who only wears black and never lets her facial expression waiver from indifference will be super impressed with your knowledge of…chairs. Wait, I think I saw her perfectly sculpted eyebrow move!
