Edit -- 21 is Young Frankenstein -- just heard it in my head in the fake German accent.

15 -- Hold On was Wilson-Phillips; Nothing Compares 2 U was Sinead O'Connor

14. "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington” Jimmy Stewart, Frank Capra
16. Special Weapons and Tactics
20. The Long March was the long retreat by the Communist Party’s army. There were several retreats by multiple parts of the army. They were retreating from forces led by Chiang Khai-sheck. Interestingly enough one of the retreating parts of the Communist army was led by Mao Zedong. Apparently he snatched politic victory from this ignominious event.
21. "What Knockers!" "Oh, thank you, doctor." Initially, I thought it has to be Benny Hill! But no, it comes from the mind of Mel Brooks in his movie Young Frankenstein in a scene with Teri Garr and Gene Wilder.
24. Complying with demands of hijackers the West Germans freed 3 Palestinian terrorists who helped kill the Israeli Olympians in Munich. Upon landing in Libya the hijackers of the Lufthansa flight freed the airplane hostages.
25. Fahrenheit 451

14. Washington. Frank Capra. Jimmy Stewart.
15. Mrs Game says: Wilson Phillips; Roxette; Sinead O’Connor. I believe her.
20. Retreat of Chinese communist armies
22. Mrs Game guesses “reparative therapy” - therapy aimed at repressing homosexual urges/behavior. Could be right.
25. Fahrenheit 451.

14..Ed4 helps out, then Big summarizes. Ah, Boneyarders working in tandem.

15..Game in a trusting marriage. Gotta warm our hearts.

16..Starting with Drive, many of you SWAT this away.

17..Bama and Big , Lonely Hearts as they are themselves.

18..First Big; then VAUC assures us he still reads...and in a timely fashion as well.

19..The K9 4some celebrate His LittleRickyness.

20..SVC and Bama give us some detail. Game too much in a hurry.

21..Big demonstrates his ear for speaking in tongues. Three others get it right also.

22..Mrs. Game and VAUC give it a try. The APA heads (but not the membership) finagle an OK for the Bush program of torture. Waterboarding? Eh, not so bad.

23..Gepetto;s trade.

24..Bama gives us Somalia.

25..A VAUC Quintet with the temp that ignites books.

Missed just 2 in "B".

Mrs. Game's second guess. She wasn't sure that the reparation therapy had approval that late.
