The Men of Micheaux kick off their next 500 episodes by debating which actors did the most with the least in 21st-century silent-ish films, as well as the colorism in the X-Men's casting of Maya Boyd. Classic Hollywood-era star Joseph Cotten was Black; that's what she said. Vincent learns who Ben Foster and Ben Mendelsohn are and how they connect to D'urville Martin before we figure out All About The Benjamins.

The Men of Micheaux return to the films of Oscar Micheaux for a rediscovered remake of one of his lost silent films, which fuels the imagination and prompts a full reconsideration of the man, his movies, and his myth. Plus, they love Back to the Future and Michael J. Fox. Or maybe they love Tom Holland and Zendaya even more. It’s certainly not 80s-80s Hip-Hop, though it gets plenty of love sprinkled on it in this episode, just the same.

The Men of Micheaux got nothing but love for the newest Spider-Man romp, which they call the best Spidey and Tom Holland of them all. The love continues to flow as they trace our connection with Kung-Fu flicks, which takes them to SDCC news about Black Panther 3 in 2028. Then Len and Vincent disagree (again) on whether or not TWO CAN PLAY THAT GAME (2001).

Vincent and Len continue their march toward 500 episodes of The Mission as they stack themselves up against iconic duos such as Tango & Cash, Murtaugh & Riggs, and Mario & Luigi. But who's Batman?

Vincent is amazed by the box-office legs of I Love Boosters, the latest surreal treat from writer-director Boots Riley. The Men of Micheaux debate the biggest flop in the filmographies of Spike Lee, Malcom D. Lee, Barry Jenkins, Antoine Fuqua, and Tyler Perry. In 1987, The Fat Boys vied for the title of "the Next Three Stooges" but failed to deliver the patented eye poke.

The Men of Micheaux expand on their previous mini-reviews to share their full thoughts on the biggest music biopic of all time. They honor the passing of music impresario "mafioso?" Clive Davis and stack his 'degrees' against those of the equally legendary Quincy Jones. They also stack the filmographies of the Wayans Family and the Tyler Perry Cinematic Universe side by side. The music of John Coltrane and The Chipmunks inspires the Men in special ways, and Vincent goes Six Degrees to a couple of other Michaels in film.
