I'm still trying to think of one. If anyone has one (especially new players), they can jump in now. (Consider it a "FREE POST".)

"Ah. Well... I attended Juilliard. I'm a graduate of the Harvard business school. I travel quite extensively. I lived through the Black Plague and had a pretty good time during that."

Those clues say a lot more, and I'd like to give you a hand for making this a challenging round. I'm waiting a little to see if anyone else can answer it.

Another clue would be appreciated.

Is this "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai in the 8th Dimension"? I may have gotten the dimension wrong-I've never watched the movie. I've read the print ads. ("Buckaroo WHO?")

Yes. Which clue was the giveaway? The theme song tells Kotter's story, and is a good song, but never mentions his name! The original name for the show was "Kotter." After "Welcome Back" was written, they changed the name to "Welcome Back Kotter". Arnold Horshack once explained that his last name means "the cattle are dying". (Episode 4, Whodunit.) Ron (Horshack) Palillo went on to do plays. Gabe (Kotter) Kaplan did a one-man show called "Groucho", portraying Groucho as he told his life-story and aged during the telling (speaking while he added makeup, etc.) Vinnie Barbarino was played by John Travolta, of whom you've all heard since then. So, Raf's turn.

This classic TV show's name was changed because the memorable theme-song neglected to mention the name of the main character in its lyrics. One character's last name supposedly translates to "the cattle are dying." Most of the actors went on to do smaller things. 1 has done plays, another has done a one-man show, but another became VERY famous.

Nice to see Frank Stallone getting work. This was "HUDSON HAWK." I still think that the big dude should have been code-named "Chunky" and not "Butterfingers."

Were these SURVIVOR season locations?

The exact title will come to me shortly.

That's it.

In this movie, a secret agent is sent to stop a heroin magnate and his organization, and the North Korean terrorist and diamond mogul working with them, and the international space weapon they're working on. Cast includes Roger Moore, Yaphet Kotto, Jane Seymour, Halle Berry, John Cleese, Dame Judi Dench.

It is right. Sorry.

Nice hat.

If I've guessed the plot to the first movie correctly, then we have "WAG THE DOG DAY AFTERNOON". Good one, BTW.

"The numbers all go to eleven. Look, right across the board, eleven, eleven, eleven and..." "Oh, I see. And most amps go up to ten?" "Exactly." "Does that mean it's louder? Is it any louder?" "Well, it's one louder, isn't it? It's not ten."

That moment is in this clip:

In twi, one thing that's always been true is that people are DISPOSABLE. As soon as someone is/was a liability, off they go. They're sent home. Family they were told to blow off for twi are expected to support them without explanation- because the family that wasn't in twi was disposable, also. In fact, to twi, nearly everyone is/was DISPOSABLE. When vpw himself wasn't the President, he was partly ignored! Anyone else was worse off. That was poetic justice, since even lcm documented that an acute medical attack meant someone was dismissed from the corps or sent home from staff, and we HOPE they get home safely because twi isn't going to actually make any EFFORT to make sure the person got home. You would think, if twi wasn't all-talk but had substance, that if someone on-staff had medical problems, they would take the person aside, pray with them (in a large group if necessary) and deliver the person of whatever the medical problem was. Instead, any significant problem meant to say something mean to the person (it's their fault), then send them off staff because otherwise twi would have to PAY MONEY to actually HELP PEOPLE rather than just talking about helping people.

It's Marvel's Avengers.

That's it. The murdered villain was Dr No, killed in the previous movie.

In this movie, we see a secret agent assist in the defection of a consulate clerk from a Soviet republic now in Turkey while avoiding attempts to kill him in revenge for his previous killing of a villain. He later joins 7 other British couples in stories about their romantic lives in the lead-up to Christmas.

In this movie, we see the romantic lives of seven different British couples in the lead-up to Christmas, and an 8th Brit, a bachelor, as he is sent to assist in the defection of a Soviet consulate clerk in Turkey while avoiding attempts to kill him in revenge for his previous killing of a villain. (Title-order police, bug off.)

Now that you mention it, it does sound like it. Supergirl wore the new outfit during Crisis on Infinite Earths, IIRC. (She didn't wear it after because she died in CoIE. But, decades later, she got better, apparently.)

Ok. It's got a lot of detail, so I was confused at first. It sounds like 3 movies or shows because "Big Trouble in Little China" is that kind of movie. While humming the theme song, I was eventually able to find "China Beach" without cheating. So, "Big Trouble in Little China Beach." Excellent, BTW. I was completely snowed earlier.
