Why use why use elles vont de Cannes pour le festival du film. I used A and got it wrong

Hi, as I understand, the use of 'ne' in everyday 'street French' is gradually being omitted. Could you please clarify to what extent 'ne' is still used in this context. 

Thank you 

va au college

Why was "il ferait du soleil" marked as partially correct (as opposed to
"il ferait beau")?

For the translation of 'thin, clean' does it matter which order the adjectives appear in French ?

Third last statement:

......ce qui attire vraiment l'œil vers le sujet de ton portrait

the above was corrected by kwiziq to portait

If I say Je vous deteste tous-I hate all of you. Then,tous is a pronoun but not a complement to the subject. So do you pronounce the S?

"un ogre grand comme une maison"

I've learned that adjectives that represent size (like grand, petit, gros, etc) should come before the noun. But in this sentence it is after the noun. Could someone please explain why?

One of the question as they have a car, is it 'Ils ont une voiture' or Ils a une voiture'?

In the suggested translations for 'that already makes two items', 'Cela fait déjà deux objets' is preferred over 'Ca fait déjà deux objets'. But since the register is informal rather than formal I had thought that 'ça' would be more appropriate. Or are there other reasons you might prefer 'cela'?
