THIS VIDEO IS OUTDATED - SEE A BETTER VERSION OF THIS VIDEO HERE:

I collect the star The Pit and the Pendulums in Tick Tock Clock using 2 A presses. The A presses are as follows:
A Press #1: to jump onto the platform preceding the cogs with the bob-omb
A Press #2: to jump off of the pole
This video is an improvement from my previous video in which I collected this star in 3 A presses. You can find that video here: http://youtu.be/q9HFvjwMtFg. Since then, I worked out a way to get from the up-and-down elevator to the pole platform without having to press A. Specifically, I bring a bob-omb all the way from its starting point to the elevator and collect its coin there to activate the 100 coin star. I then combine vertical speed conservation, a ground pound, and a star dance clip to get up to the pole platform.
So what is vertical speed conservation? When Mario does a dive recover and lands, the variable that maintains his vertical speed does NOT reset to zero. So, if Mario lands while he is falling, then this vertical speed will be negative. But if Mario lands while he is still ascending (as is the case when he dive recovers on a rising elevator), then this vertical speed will be positive. This vertical speed WILL reset to 0 if Mario moves at all, but punching and breakdancing will not affect it. Anyway, once Mario becomes airborne, then his vertical speed takes instant effect. So by storing a positive vertical speed and not resetting it, I am able to have Mario pop up when he punches his way off of the elevator. The reason I needed this vertical speed bounce instead of a regular dive recover is because Mario is able to ground pound with the former, and so the combined height advantages of vertical speed conservation, a ground pound, and a star dance clip were just enough to make it up to the pole platform.
So what is a star dance clip? The star dance clip is a technique where Mario collects a star, thereby allowing him to get onto ledges he wouldnt normally be able to get on. You see, when Mario collects a star, he enters a state where he is able to grab onto ledges. But when he grabs on in this state, instead of entering the grabbing on animation, he just appears at the top of the ledge and does his star dance.
