At the height of a very tense confrontation, Darth Vader reveals to Marty McFly that Doc Brown never told him the truth about his father. Darth Vader is George McFly!
Only two or more word clues apply. Correct? If truth is the before part, I'm stumped. I was thinking of going with Password but that's a single answer too.
At this point, I don't mind if you google Patrick McGoohan. Assuming you can determine the show he was on that I mean, the first word of the title of that show is the last word in the title of the game show, on which the others named were panelists.

Correct. The name of the first show/movie has to be at least two words. The name of the second show/movie has to be at least two words. The last word of the first show should be the same as the first word of the second (minus articles like "A" or "The"). I'm calling that the linking word (for reasons I hope are obvious).

There are probably a LOT fewer examples (can't think of ONE at the moment, but I'm working on it); but I imagine it's OK to overlap more than one word.
1983 miniseries that follows the book of the same name, and a movie from the same year where a young man finds a back door into a military central computer.

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

Obviously,
"The Empire Strikes Back to the Future"
Patrick McGoohan joins Bill cullen, Betsy Palmer, and Bess Myerson as panelists on a game show along the lines of "What's My Line?".

The "Obviously" was being typed at the same time as Ex's answer. I didn't mean that she obviously doesn't know how to play!

I get it. (I'm not so intuitive, more visceral). George, you and Raf are quite adept with putting the lines together.
Who's Patrick McGoohan?

British actor, starred in at least two series. "The Prisoner" was one. The one I mean for this thread came before that.
The game show was in the late 50's -late 60's time grame.

I have a guess. Does the linking word start with a T?

You did cleverly link two game shows, but neither is the one I have in mind. Perhaps the order of the clues threw you off. Try this revision:
On a game show along the lines of "What's My Line?", Bill cullen, Betsy Palmer, and Bess Myerson are joined by Patrick McGoohan.

Will cross that bridge when we come to it.
Since I cheated, I'll wait a bit longer before posting the answer to the last one.

Correct! (Game show "I've Got a Secret" + "Secret Agent," with McGoohan)
You're up.

Nice job, AHAT! Try to have a little more fun meshing the plotlines as if this is really one show. But you've got the right idea.

Steven Segal is a do-gooder who proves very difficult to assassinate, but Uma Thurman will not stop trying until she gets the job done.
