SUPER HIGH ME - DOUG BENSON


Doug Benson isn't quite a household name YET. i mean, there was a time that no one had ever heard of Adam Sandler and Steven Carell. Doug Benson is one of the funniest sons-of-bitches i have ever heard comedy from. he's had numerous stand up specials on Comedy Central, has been touring the comedy circuit for a long time, has had numerous cameos and major TV shows and movies, and has recently been on Jimmy Kimmel. i plan on buying tickets to go and see him when he comes around to LA next but until then - i am buying his new DVD 'Super High Me' which is out June 17th. i don't know much about the movie and i can't really explain what the premise is but here is the synopsis from the man himself:

You know that movie Super Size Me, where that guy Morgan Spurlock ate McDonald’s every meal for 30 days? People actually paid money to see that. Well, if that’s a movie, I’ve got a movie! I’m going to smoke pot every day for 30 days, and it’s going to be called Super High Me, or Business As Usual… I haven’t decided on a title yet. But guess what? McDonald’s is going to be in my movie too!

– Joke from Doug Benson’s stand up act, 2006

i haven't known of Doug Benson for a long time but he could very well be one of favorite comedians of all time already! this dude is really, really funny and you need to go and buy this DVD when it comes out. like i said, i've never seen it and don't know too much of what it's about but he is that funny that i can guarantee it will be good.

i am not sure what sort of distribution deal that he picked up or if it will be available at your local Best Buy, but if you visit the movies official website here to purchase it directly or to find out more info.
