In response to Morgan Spurlock's “Comic-Con: A Fan's Hope”, Pot Comic Doug Benson shows Comic Con through his hazy eyes.

On stage at a show, Doug Benson announces that he wants to make spin off documentaries that mirror the ones made by Morgan Spurlock and so far he is behind by two films. He goes on to say that he is going to rip off Spurlock's film “Comic-Con: A Fan's Hope” by going to Comic Con stoned and showing it from his own perspective and then throws out a handful of names that he would possibly call his documentary.

Benson has two soul purposes in this film; track down Morgan Spurlock and get high with someone on his superhero wish list that includes Rorschach from “Watchmen”, Darth Vader, Spider Man or the Dark Knight (but he did throw in Adam West just in case that happened to be an option).

So, there isn't much of a summary of this film but basically what I wrote sums it up perfectly. This would be a basic stoner documentary. He starts out with a mission and then it gets a little sidetracked. There were some amusing and even downright funny parts to this film but it was also a little out there. If I am going to be honest, it felt more like a long, drawn-out, rambling type of conversation.

This film is okay. Not the worst I have seen but really not the best. I am sure it would be much better if a person was high for it instead of sober but I will leave what is best for you up to you. Either way you decide to watch it, Don't Forget the Popcorn!
