Review: Up In Smoke: Special Collector's Edition

We just finished watching the brand new DVD, Cheech and Chong's Up In Smoke: Collector's Edition (aka High-Larious Edition).

Lou Adler's team put a lot of work into this DVD. It's spectacular. The graphical intro to the DVD is sharp as hell.

Not only does it include all the great content of the original DVD release, such as really funny deleted scenes and commentary with Cheech and Adler, but it also includes brand new stuff.

There are new interviews with Cheech and Tommy in 'A Look Back At Up In Smoke.' In these interviews, Cheech and Tommy reveal how they met, how they came up with bits from their albums and reveal inside information about the making of the movie. Tommy is seen wearing his infamous 'hemp is a herb, Bush is a dope' t-shirt.

The Paramount Home Entertainment animation team animated Earache My Eye. The animation is almost as funny as the song. It even includes the Earache My Eye b-side 'I don't wanna go to school.'

If that wasn't funny enough, Paramount edited together every time the word "man" was said in Up In Smoke and put it to music.

Last, but not least, they included and animated two vintage radio spots used to promote the movie. The first features Horrendo Revolver. The second features Saydis Saydat. We had never heard these before.

The DVD is awesome.

Pick it up today.
