The Christian Science Monitor posted a story in their A&E section about the rise in films with a focus on Marijuana. They seem to get the hint that it's a sign of the times, Marijuana is more accepted culturally now than it has been in ages. Here's a snip:

Call it cinema's stoned age. Films featuring characters using marijuana have mushroomed.

"Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay," the second movie to feature the titular pot-smoking characters, grossed nearly $15 million on its opening weekend, which might portend a big opening for August's "Pineapple Express," a Judd Apatow-produced comedy about a pot smoker and his supplier on the run. Also rolling out: "The Wackness," with Ben Kingsley as a bong-using psychiatrist; "Humboldt County," in which a medical student spends a summer in a marijuana-farming town; and "Super High Me," with comedian Doug Benson using the drug for 30 days.

I never even heard of The Pineapple Express, time to go watch it. Make sure to check out our review of Doug Benson's Super High Me.
