Which forces:
14 EXITS - First Row, Third Column
andā€¦well Iā€™ll let someone else finish off the last one, donā€™t wanna hog it

Thatā€™s cool to know, thanks! Iā€™ll have to check that out.

Anyway, Iā€™ll take the honors and finish off Row 3, Column 2. Exalt, #3.

However, #5 seems to be wrong based on the phrase. It should start with an E. What could it beā€¦

ā€¦ah, right! Ester!

ā€¦Youā€™ll quickly learn that the designers of these puzzles love specific obscure words and will reuse these words with reckless abandon. At any rateā€¦

ā€œThe less routine, the more life.ā€ Great work, everyone!

Iā€™ll pop up another puzzle in a bit.

Next one weā€™ll do is Places, Please.

This oneā€™s kinda automatic if you know how they work, but I assume most of you donā€™t. I still like them though.

Good luck!

3 ANT is diagonal down-right.
3 AGORA is diagonal down-left.
5 ERR is right, because itā€™s already spelled out.
3 ADRENALINE is left. Wonā€™t fit downwards - 13 doesnā€™t like it.
6 RONDO is up-right.

ā€¦probably.

6 RENEGE is left
9 MARTINI is up
1 GRANDCHILD is right

Two problems with this puzzle that I didnā€™t realize until after I posted it.

  1. This type of puzzle doesnā€™t really work as a collaboration since the process of solving the puzzle is rather linear.
  2. It requires constant updating of the puzzle to help solvers visualize the possible solutions better.

Therefore, Iā€™m going to mulligan and choose a new puzzle. Next one is soonā€¦

This one should work better. Itā€™s called Word Games Puzzle. Itā€™s pretty difficult for me solo, so hopefully it should go better as a team!

Good luck!

Iā€™ll take the obvious ones.

THE FUNNIES
2. Charles Schultz = Peanuts
3. Jim Davis = Garfield

Also,

RHYME TIME

  1. Dandy Incantation = Hocus Pocus

No. 4 Trendy excursion is probably Hip Trip.

Anatomy Lesson:

  1. Out of hand
  2. Heartless

Movie Links:
2. Heaven

One of those must be wrong because of K4 being in both but as two different letters. Itā€™s probably safe to say Peanuts is the correct one, soā€¦

Hereā€™s what Iā€™ve got so far. Even took the liberty of filling in some letters for the other clues! May have made some mistakes on the top part so be aware of that.

Wonā€™t have time to update/add new puzzles until tomorrow afternoon, so if anyone wants to update this puzzle and/or throw their own puzzle in, by all means!

Anatomy Lesson
4. Head Off
Movie Links

  1. Shanghai
  2. Night

Anatomy Lesson
2. Footloose

Mort Walker and Dik Browne is gonna be ā€œHi and Loisā€

Oh duh Movie Links 3 is ā€œthievesā€. (Iā€™d thought ā€œspiesā€ before from ā€œ_____ Like Usā€ but it didnā€™t fit the length or the other half.)

Also Rhyme Time 1 is ā€œswell spellā€.
