Weed Cops

Weed Cops is a 2009 buddy cop parody brickfilm by Nikolas Jaeger. It follows two cops who must find the police station's missing weed supply. It was awarded second place in the sixth Twenty-four Hour Animation Contest.

Plot
It is Walter Jones' first day in a new police department. He meets with his new partner, Bobby Weinman, and the pair go to get the briefing for their first assignment together. The police captain informs them that the department's weed supply has been stolen by cult leader Billy Craven who believes it to be satanic. He asks them to find it before it is destroyed and specifies to keep it quiet from the public, who he fears will want it for themselves.

The two drive to the cult building as Weinman warns Jones about working in the city and outlines the plan for when they arrive. At the cult meeting, Billy Craven is performing a ritual to cast out demons from the stolen weed. The cops arrive outside, kick down the door and hold the cult members at gunpoint.

Reception
The film was well received by audiences, and it gained 4 and a half stars out of 13 reviews on Bricks in Motion. Zach Macias had this to say about the film.

"Night Owl does a fantastic job of establishing that classic cheesy, 60's cop show atmosphere early on, and is able to keep that consistent throughout the film. This is definitely not intended for younger audiences, as much of the humor particularly explicit and adult oriented, including strong language, drug content and references, and a tiny pinch o' misogyny. Some of the time, it's funny (particularly the cult scene), other times, it feels a bit forced. Animation is relatively minimal, but what's there is good, and the voice acting is cheesy in a good way. Unfortunately, the film ends right where it seems to begin, but this is mostly forgivable considering this was a Twenty-Four Hour Animation Contest film. Overall, this film definitely has an intended audience, and those who fall into that category will enjoy it, but others might be put off by it." - Zach Macias
