Alas, though many sound familiar (and NDP took my guess of MAS*H), I will offer some hints for mine:
VP1: An Associate Professor checks the sun to determine the time.
VP2: A dinner guest, a detective, looks puzzled at his tumbler of wine.
VP3: A wannabe dancer loses repeatedly at a slot machine.
VP4: A former baggage handler discusses the weight capacity of a *Louis Vuitton *bag.

Is that Showgirls? (BTW, if you hadn’t added that last clue I would’ve guessed **Lost in America ** because there’s a similar scene in that movie.)

I see one of mine remains unanswered…
A2:a male character is practicing his golf swing, a female character in skirt and heels shows him up, using his own club.
I’ll add another small hint, this was not on a golf course.
