Bong Me Up, Scotty: Pairing Weed Strains With The Original Star Trek Movies

Star Trek III: In Search of Spock pairs with Connor’s Comfort: 

This entry was always the pointy-eared stepchild of the original bunch. It’s actually pretty good, as this is the first movie that unleashes the Klingons in a major way. It is the definitive revision of the 60s portrayal of Klingons as beatniks in jumpsuits. Also, Christopher Lloyd is the Klingon heavy, bridging his acid burnout as Reverend Jim in Taxi to lovable Doc Brown. What a long, strange bridge it’s been. The huge factor that continues to work against the picture is the weight of its foregone conclusions. On the poster, Spock is coming back from the dead, so every step towards that comes with a sigh of “no s**t, Spock.”

Coming to the rescue is Connor’s Comfort from CAMP to help wipe the obvious away while viewing. This is a balance of THC with CBD, so your jolly will be accompanied by a numbie. The tension release of the cannabinoids will roll across your sore muscles like the waves from the Genesis device. Your mind will lift and give you a fresh perspective on the third one, unhampered by the utter lack of suspense. The Source recommends using Connor’s Comfort to feel like Spock, so this is definitely the show to spark some to. 

Star Trek II: The Wraith of Khan pairs with First Class Funk:

Part of the original class of 1982’s blockbuster summer, where it ran rampant for weeks with E.T.PoltergeistRocky III, and The Road Warrior. It was actually a reboot of the first theatrical attempt, with new uniforms and everything. It established the game plan of reigniting an I.P., including taking an obscure series character and elevating them to a super baddie. It also established the impact of killing off a central character, even though it set up everything to cheat out of it by the end of the picture. It also looks more metal than any of the other movies. It is baffling that Ricardo Montalban was still donning his yacht rock white suit on Fantasy Island, and at the same time, he was hellbent for leather as Khan.

It is some First Class Funk, and by gum, that is the strain it pairs best with. It’s a glowing marriage of Garlic Mushroom Onions with Jet Fuel Gelato grown by CAMP. The swell lifts your feet off the ground like invisible elevator shoes. The Source says it will make you Kirk out with your dirk out. I say this will stab your lungs from Hell’s heart and make you feel like you’re riding with the Khan dawg.

Star Trek: The Motion Picture pairs with Dark Rainbow:

The first attempt on the big screen was the cinema equivalent of the Hindenburg Disaster back in its day. The pent-up expectations for this to be the next Star Wars was enormous, as was the budget compared to all the following films. Instead of the next big thing, back in 1979 it put audiences to sleep due to its stretching of a familiar storyline from the show to over two hours, with a poisonous G rating to boot. It didn’t help that visually it had its lunch eaten by Disney’s way more entertaining The Black Hole. So imagine my surprise to discover years later that this movie was essentially the next 2001: A Space Odyssey. The visuals are unbelievable, with the trippy sequences like those from the third act of the Kubrick movie running throughout this movie’s runtime. These mind-melting vistas also include pop culture iconic images like Spock and the Enterprise, making this the ultimate forgotten head picture.

What better way to reactivate such a psychedelic classic as a trip to the high shelf for some Dark Rainbow by CAMP? This is the high-powered stuff, with THC levels going about as high as they can go. The Source says this award winner will make you get your Klingon on as Worf. I say this is the perfect strain to pack for a surprising voyage back in time into the distant future. Trust me, you have to get stoned and watch this movie, where one image is worth a thousand black light posters.
