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.

The Brown Hornet! No, he never got his own movie.

This is a standard before-and-after?

Actual Errors in Genesis
WordWolf replied to Raf's topic in Atheism, nontheism, skepticism: Questioning Faith
See, T-Bone, that's a fundamental difference in your systems. Raf's going "Genesis is unreliable, I don't trust the Bible. Therefore, the Bible's not from God, and since the Bible's not from God, there's no God, and since there's no God, but we exist, we exist without having been created, and the universe exists without having been created. It all goes back to Genesis. Your approach sounds like it looks at the universe, and dismisses the idea that the universe couldn't have been created, so there was a Creator that created it, and so on. (I could be wrong, that might not be your approach.) So, you're both focusing on different things. Since this thread's specifically about Genesis, a discussion on the science would most likely be a very poor fit. -
Housing advice from lcm.... Housing advice from a man who never paid rent? lcm went from his parents' home to university, where he was an athlete. Athletes are considered prime candidates for some fraternities with a house. Athletes are definitely put on the priority list for dorms from the school. So, lcm almost certainly lived in the dorms, unless he lived in a frat house. I can easily see him hanging out with athletes in a drinking frat. After university, he went straight into twi, where housing was provided- although he "could stay as long as his money holds". So, lcm lived in his parent's home, then college, then twi provided a place of one form or another, including stealing the Corps Chalet from the group, renaming it the President's Home, and letting him live there rent-free. lcm was pushed out of twi and relocated to a house- again, owned by twi where he probably lives rent-free (he's not telling.) So, this is the man who was giving advice about how owning a house is bad. Yeah, Rosa-lie sure has been suffering with her house, hasn't she? Especially with twi people performing maintenance on it for free and everything...

"In October of 1994 three student filmmakers disappeared in the woods near Burkittsville, Maryland, while shooting a documentary...A year later their footage was found." The success of this indie film-which began on a shoestring budget- inspired a number of other "found footage" movies in the decade that followed. LDP plays the street-punk in the class. He gets all the good lines that EJO/Jaime Escalante doesn't get. Thanks for the kind words.

Hold on to your hats. This is a FOUR-parter movie, with 4 different titles properly linked. Recovered film footage from 3 missing persons revealed a hideous secret- a military project has been subjecting chimpanzees to horrible experiments in order to come up with a cure for humanity's mutations. The footage eventually ends up being used by a teacher hoping to inspire his students to excel through hard work and passing an Advanced Placement exam. Stars include Matthew Broderick,Helen Hunt, Patrick Stewart, Ian Mc Kellen, Andy Garcia, Edward James Olmos and Lou Diamond-Phillips.

That's it. I was about to post about the black chicken out of frustration. "Come back, black chicken! At least leave us an egg or something!"
-
That's it.
-
You're probably stuck because you presumed it began with "men" and you had too short a name for the 3rd, the 1 about the cure.

It's all movies. Very few movies are in the "found footage" category. Only 1, AFAIK, involves 3 missing persons. It's fairly well-known, if not a blockbuster.

Isabel Sanford Sherman Hemsley Arte Johnson Dick Shawn Richard Benjamin Susan Saint James George Hamilton The DVD version removes "I Love the Nightlife" from the disco scene. How dare they? Wikipedia has this film in the following categories (among others): 1979 films 1970s romantic comedy films American comedy horror films Films set in New York City parody films One line was "What was that idiot drinking? It tastes like the Volga River at low tide!" But the Volga River does not experience tides, neither high nor low. "It's OK- I'm a doctor!" How many movies use a Star of David as a prop in a joke?
