Anyone likes Word Search Puzzles? (Solution added)

Hello world!
So I decided to make my first puzzle and added some giveaways in it. I never tried anything similar before so please be lenient with me.

Puzzle: http://www.itstoohard.com/puzzle/ncfUL6ts
Games in giveaways: Planes, Bolt, Brave, Epic Mickey 2, WALL-E, Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion

There are actually two puzzles. You'll have access to half of the giveaways after the 1st one is solved and to the rest after the 2nd.

Hope you'll have fun. I'll add some hints later if I'll see someone stuck somewhere so don't worry^^ Of course I also welcome anyone giving hints in my place, just please don't spoil anything fully/don't give them the full answer for the ITH. Thanks & good luck!

Hints:
Puzzle1: Its easy, just find every word you can! Leftovers will be also handy somehow.
Puzzle1: Still stuck? Maybe you could try looking more at those leftover words first and reading them in order of appearance? And then putting it together with the omits in the grid?
Puzzle2: The grid is important. Maybe it will even tell you how to solve this puzzle?
Puzzle2: Word equals to numbers? And they're the same length.. maybe I could try to go by letters?

Thought I'd give this another shot, but nope. Still stuck on the first part. Despite the hints, can't figure out what to do with the leftovers.

1st puzzle:
After you found every word you could in the World Search Puzzle, you found out two things:

  • the leftover letters "EVEAND"
  • the 5 leftover words "WITCHER, ARMELLO, LABYRINTHINE, LIEAT, ETHERBORN"

You already had the 1st part of the solution "Eve and". For the 2nd part you had to take first letter of each leftover word - WALLE. So together the solution would be "Eve and Walle".

2nd puzzle:
Each letter equals to one number. S = 5, T = 7.. etc. You had to redraw the grid with the numbers instead of letters. Then if you got the idea that it was a sudoku grid, you basically won^^ After you solved the sudoku and summarized those few marked numbers, you had the solution you needed.
