    "Чтобы суммировать глаголы движения" doesn't sound right. Maybe "чтобы закончить с глаголами движения"...

    "Самолёты ему не нравятся" is not good. Better: "он не любит самолеты".

    Покупать + genitive is impossible, I think.
    Покупать always requires an accusative.

    Купить can require the both, but if it's some quantity of something, it's usually a genitive.
