At least Dazed and Confused works fine whether the viewer is baked or not. Up In Smoke is pretty lame by itself. (I remember going to see this with my older brother back in the day. I was probably fourteen or so. We went to see it at a theater called Don Pancho's, an independent in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The movie screen was shrouded in a white haze, which was pretty common when seeing movies at that venue. Does that happen anywhere anymore? Not that I want it to, since I detest the smell of cannabis, but it seems remarkable to me that just a couple of decades ago, thsi happened so frequently and so casually.)
