Shouldn't inoubliable be singular?

It seems that inoubliable is an adjective for année, with "et ce film" being only an interjection, so that inoubliable should be singular. If it were written "qui rendront cette année et ce film" then the plural would be required.

Tense of devoir

My immediate instinct was to use "Attention ! Le mélange ne devrait pas trop chaud," but it was marked incorrect. In this particular context, is there a hard reason why it is better to use "Le mélange ne doit pas être trop chaud" instead?

étonnant et à cause de

I have been taught that à cause de is used negatively. The positive usage is grace à. Whats your opinion?
