Denzel Washington stars as a young orphan boy, is found in a basket in the jungle he is raised by wolves and then grows into a pacifist warrior who becomes a sort of messianic figure
I'm at a loss Ahat. Denzel as a orphan boy. I'm trying to put this together. I didn't know Denzel played in anything before Hope and Glory so I can't place it. Care to enhance the image for me?

You have to read the first post to make sense of any round, Human.
Here's a new game based on the Wheel of Fortune category. For those who don't know, "Before and After" in Wheel of Fortune is when two terms or expressions are united by a word at the end of one phrase and at the beginning of the second.
For example: "God Bless You Dirty Rat" is a before & After tying "God Bless You" and "You Dirty Rat."
I thought it might be fun to do the same thing with movie titles. So here's the gimmick: I describe the movie (mixing up the plots of the two movies and TV shows), and you figure out the before & after.
Rather than give an example, I'll just start it off and you'll hopefully see what I mean. Ready?
After a family moves into an old house, their little girl becomes tormented by visions of Batman in the basement.
It's a mix of "Don't Be Afraid of the Dark" and "the Dark Knight."
Took me a while to remember the Village People movie
"Can't Stop the Music Man"
A tour de force for Sam Rockwell, playing two roles in a movie about the actors from a sci-fi TV show attempting to defend the Earth from the Vogons, who want to build a galactic off-ramp.
I don't know how one would connect them? The before is The Family Man. Unless, you reverse it.
The Adams Family Man
There's no requirement that the first clue be for the first title. Sometimes, it makes for a more readable description to to it backwards. I suspect that you have the correct title.
It is. I used the tv version. I didn't know to much about it. So I looked it up and borrowed a couple of tag lines, one being secret society, and the other was culture clash. I remembered that a lot of it took place underground.

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 eventual

So, "Don't Be Afraid of the Dark Knight."

I hate when I do that.

It is "The Addams Family Man."
(Spelling doesn't count. In fact, I may have misspelled it now.)
I've found the descriptions seem to flow better, for some reason, when I lead off with the 2nd movie.
When I try to reverse that, it seems to be more awkward. Oh, well.

Kevin Spacey is having a mid-life crisis and is banished because he lives in a secret society.
He has a relationship that clashes with culture.

I presume that the Kevin Spacey part is American Beauty, but I don't get the rest of it, either. Maybe it's
American Beauty and the Beast (?)

Just interested: did you look up the current B&tB show, or the one from the 80's?
Anyway,
