Can you please explain why "J'ai les jeux marron" is not "marrons"?

J'ai beaucoup apprécié ce texte parce que j'ai oublié beaucoup du film. Maintenant, je me souviens du personnage principal, je veux regarder le film à nouveau. Merci beaucoup !

Hi!

In the notes to this section it says:
Je suis arrivé dix minutes en retard.

But in the video the guy says at 1:06 :
L'avion est arrivé en retard d'une heure.

You even give follow-up examples where the time is at the end of a sentence.
So.....with arriver/venir/commencer/finir (without avec) - it doesn't matter if I put the [time] before or after en retard?

Because if that is the case, then an addition in the "attention section" would be nice:
or
[5 minutes] en retard / [5 minutes] en avance

or

en retard or [5 minutes] en avance / [5 minutes] 


Okay, and now I got myself even more confused....😂

Can anyone explain why the subjunctive 'puisse' is used here?

Je veux etudier des sujets autres que le passe simple, mais le programme me donne 9 questions du passe simple sur 10 dans chaque test, meme si j'active le test a partir des lecons sur d'autres sujets. Comment sortir de cet engrenage? 

I have been corrected, (- but not marked wrong), for using a comma between two halves of soit ... soit ... , and there seems to be no consistency between when to do so, and when not too. HELP !!!

“je me sens bien”, et, “je vais bien?”   Merci!

Is the pronunciation of "nombreuses années" in the first example correct? To my ear it sounds odd to emphasize the "es" when making the liaison.

In the first sentence, "to go to work" is given as "pour aller travailler".  I put "pour aller au travail", which was not provided as an alternative.  I've seen the second approach used, so I'm wondering if it's considered wrong, or just not included in this exercise.
