483 - Deep Blue Sea (1999)

Apr 8th, 2026 11:00 PM

The Men of Micheaux return to discuss the cancellation of Star Trek Starfleet Academy after one season and the fate of the Star Trek franchise going forward. Then they cast a remake of 1975's Mahogany as they search for actor with the "iconic" shine of Diana Ross. After long overdue tahnks to the patrons of Patreon, Vincent goes Six Degrees to the stars of The Deep and The Abyss. Finally, the Men land at their review of the dumb-fun B movie of 1999, Deep Blue Sea, which features two classic scenes of (Black) cinema history. We're making video versions of our reviews!

Trepass (1992)

Mar 25th, 2026 11:00 PM

The Men of Micheaux discuss Jon Hamm's villain turn in Hulu's Fargo and which R&B remake gets the Vincent OKAY that 90s faves Jodeci (Lately) and Intro (Ribbon In The Sky) will never get. Then -- 10 minutes on Stoney Jackson happens for reasons and TREPASS is a really, really fun movie worth rediscovering. We're making video versions of our reviews!

The Glass Shield (1994)

Mar 18th, 2026 11:00 PM

Vincent is 'disappointed' in the Missionaries and their love of "random 90s music by 80s greats" while he pulls out his wallet. The Men of Micheaux question if Oscar-winner Michael B. Jordan is the next Denzel Washington. We go Six Degrees to the unflappable Oliver Platt and Lois Lane (?). Finally, we review writer-director Charles Burnett's THE GLASS SHIELD, which pulls off one of the biggest fakeouts in movie advertising history and reveals the Tommy Hicks multiverse of films.   We're making video versions of our reviews!

Funny Valentines (1999)

Mar 12th, 2026 12:00 AM

On the way to reviewing 1999's Funny Valentines, which features a rare lead performance by Alfre Woodard and scene-stealing brilliance by Loretta Devine, Len 'sings' the remakes of My Funny Valentine and Vincent promises ONE DOLLAR to everyone in the world. And legendary actor E.G. Marshall proves to be a bizarro mystery to Vincent, but the Men of Micheaux make it Six Degrees to D'urville nonetheless. We're making video versions of our reviews!
