    Turn It Up to 11: The Greatest Fictional Movie Bands

    Send us Fan Mail Tonight, we’re cranking the amps to eleven as we rank the greatest fictional bands in movie history, where musical talent is optional but dramatic backstage arguments are apparently mandatory. From Spinal Tap and Stillwater to The Wonders, Sex Bob-Omb, and bands whose members include escaped convicts, prep-school children, and occasionally Muppets, cinema has given us groups that frankly deserve better Spotify numbers than some actual musicians. We’ll debate which fake bands had the best songs, the most convincing chemistry, and which ones we’d genuinely pay money to see live. We’ll also tackle the important philosophical question: if a fictional band starts touring in real life, have they escaped the movie and become our problem? So grab a beer, protect your drummer, and join us as Films and Fermentation ranks the best fictional movie bands of all time! 🎸🎬🍻 Don’t forget to drop us an email at filmsandfermentation@gmail.com or visit linktree.com/filmsandfermentation  to find all our social media and podcast links.   Become part of the Films and Fermentation Family.

    The Sophomore Slump: Hollywood's Greatest One-Hit Wonders

    Send us Fan Mail Hollywood loves an origin story... right up until the sequel. Tonight we're talking about the actors, actresses, and directors who burst onto the scene with a first movie so good that studios were practically throwing money at them, only to discover lightning doesn't always strike twice. Some became cautionary tales, some became cult legends, and a few are probably still pitching "it's The Sixth Sense meets Cats" to confused executives. This isn't about people who had one good movie. It's about the people whose very first swing was a grand slam... and then they spent the next twenty years bunting. So grab a drink and join us as we celebrate Hollywood's greatest sophomore slumps, because sometimes the hardest act to follow... is yourself. 🎬🍻 Don’t forget to drop us an email at filmsandfermentation@gmail.com or visit linktree.com/filmsandfermentation  to find all our social media and podcast links.  Become part of the Films and Fermentation Family.  We are now part of the podnation media network on Roku.   We are an Independent Podcast, which means we are listener supported.  So please consider joining our Patreon for as little as a dollar a month to receive members only content.  https://fermentedfilms.creator-spring.com/ You can now text us at: 904-867-4466 Smells Like HumansLike listening to funny friends discuss curious human behavior.Listen on: Apple Podcasts   Spotify Support the show A member of the Podnation Media Network. linktree.com/podnationpods Find all our social media and Podcast links at: linktree.com/filmsandfermentation Become part of the FIlms and Fermentation Family by supporting us on Patreon or buying our Merch at teespring.com CHEERS!

    Wait... THAT Was Based on a Book?!

    Send us Fan Mail Tonight, we’re looking at movies you probably assumed sprang fully formed from the mind of a screenwriter, only to discover they were hiding in a book, comic, memoir, or suspiciously short piece of fiction all along. This is not Harry Potter, where the source material arrives carrying its own theme park and gift shop. We’re talking A History of Violence, Die Hard, Mean Girls, and other films that quietly snuck onto the screen wearing fake mustaches. Some of these adaptations are so different from their originals that calling them “based on” feels legally cautious. So pour a drink, judge a book by its movie poster, and prepare to say, “Wait… that was adapted from what?” 🎬📚🍻 Don’t forget to drop us an email at filmsandfermentation@gmail.com or visit linktree.com/filmsandfermentation  to find all our social media and podcast links.  Become part of the Films and Fermentation Family.  We are now part of the podnation media network on Roku.   We are an Independent Podcast, which means we are listener supported.  So please consider joining our Patreon for as little as a dollar a month to receive members only content.

    Real Plot or Not: Shark Week Edition

    Send us Fan Mail Welcome to Films and Fermentation's Shark Week Special, where we're testing not just our movie knowledge, but humanity's ability to distinguish between actual shark movies and fever dreams that somehow got greenlit. In Real Plot or Not: Shark Week Edition, we'll read outrageous shark movie plot summaries, and our contestants have to decide whether Hollywood really made them... or whether we made them up after one too many tropical drinks. Considering there are movies featuring ghost sharks, avalanche sharks, and sharks that apparently ignore the laws of biology, this game is far more difficult than it has any right to be. So grab your favorite beverage, keep your hands out of the water, and join us as we discover that sometimes the scariest thing in Shark Week isn't the shark... it's the screenwriter.  Don’t forget to drop us an email at filmsandfermentation@gmail.com or visit linktree.com/filmsandfermentation  to find all our social media and podcast links.  Become part of the Films and Fermentation Family.  We are now part of the podnation media network on Roku.   We are an Independent Podcast, which means we are listener supported.  So please consider joining our Patreon for as little as a dollar a month to receive members only content.  https://fermentedfilms.creator-spring.com/ You can now text us at: 904-867-4466 Smells Like HumansLike listening to funny friends discuss curious human behavior.Listen on: Apple Podcasts   Spotify Support the show A member of the Podnation Media Network. linktree.com/podnationpods Find all our social media and Podcast links at: linktree.com/filmsandfermentation Become part of the FIlms and Fermentation Family by supporting us on Patreon or buying our Merch at teespring.com CHEERS!

    Season 12 Premiere (Films that Time Forgot Part 15)

    Send us Fan Mail Season 12 of Films and Fermentation kicks off with a fan-favorite tradition as we dive into our 15th edition of Movies That Time Forgot, uncovering hidden gems, overlooked classics, and films that deserved far more love than they ever received. Joining us for the celebration are our unofficial fourth co-host, the delightfully erudite Cthulhu Jack, and special guest Matt Brooks, indie horror filmmaker and champion of all things creepy. Together we'll make passionate cases for forgotten favorites, argue over cinematic injustices, and almost certainly add a dozen movies to your watchlist. Expect great recommendations, terrible puns, spirited debates, and the usual amount of movie-fueled chaos you've come to expect from Films and Fermentation. So grab your favorite beverage and help us kick off Season 12 by proving that sometimes the best movies are the ones everyone else forgot.

    ‘Murica: The Movie | 32 Films Enter. One Movie Leaves (Season 11 Finale)

    Send us Fan Mail Happy Fourth of July from Films and Fermentation! This week, we're settling one of the most gloriously unnecessary debates in cinematic history by crowning the most American movie ever made in a 32-film tournament packed with underdogs, explosions, baseball, freedom, questionable decisions, and at least one bald eagle in spirit. Will Rocky go the distance, will Top Gun buzz the tower, or will an unexpected Cinderella story steal the championship? Expect heated debates, questionable seeding, and passionate arguments over whether excessive patriotism or simply grilling hot dogs should count toward a movie's final score. Grab your favorite beverage and join us for 'Murica: The Movie, where the only thing more competitive than the bracket is the people filling it out.

    The Career of Tim Curry

    Send us Fan Mail This week on Films and Fermentation, we're celebrating the wonderfully weird, wildly talented, and utterly unforgettable career of Tim Curry. From a sweet transvestite from Transylvania to a terrifying clown lurking in the sewers, Curry somehow managed to traumatize and delight entire generations at the same time. We'll revisit his most iconic roles, debate his greatest performances, and probably spend an unhealthy amount of time quoting movies that shouldn't be as endlessly quotable as they are. Whether you know him as Dr. Frank-N-Furter, Pennywise, Long John Silver, Wadsworth, or the Lord of Darkness himself, Tim Curry has left fingerprints all over pop culture. So grab your favorite beverage and join us as we celebrate the man who proved that chewing the scenery isn't a flaw when you're the most entertaining person in the room.

    The Great Sports Movie Draft with guest, Matt Brooks

    Send us Fan Mail This week on Films and Fermentation, we're trading movie reviews for a draft board as we assemble the ultimate roster of sports movies. From underdog boxers and miracle hockey teams to baseball dreams and football legends, no athlete, coach, or inspirational locker room speech is safe from selection. Will strategy prevail, or will someone panic and spend a first-round pick on a movie they haven't actually watched since cable television was king? Expect fierce competition, questionable scouting reports, and enough sports clichés to fill an entire Hall of Fame wing. So grab your favorite beverage and join us for The Great Sports Movie Draft, where the only thing more competitive than the movies is the people arguing about them.
