My thoughs.

1. I'm really happy that they are going for the Spanish Inquisition, i'm definitely watching that movie subbed rather than dubbed.

2. Aguilar's outfit beats Giovanni's Lineage robes by a far margin, but even if they don't look very Spanish-tailored you have to give credit where its due, but i think that it is a little over-the-top to include the Assassin's symbol in the hood, hope they change that, otherwise, they fit Michael nicely.

3. Since Ubisoft is so heavily involved i hope they make as good, if not better effort with this movie as the games, since i have my hopes somewhere along the line of Optimistic, but cautious.

4. I was kinda hoping for the Modern Day segment, but now i'm worried thay they don't respect they storyline previously established (I hope for a reference to the Initiates storyline), i just hope that the movie is long and they cram the parallel storylines nicely. But i want it to be self-contained and a bit easy to follow for non-fans, i want references, but not to involve too many aspects from the overall storyline.

5. I don't want this movie to have a sequel, if its included in the same universe then it doesn't need one, but it wouldn't hurt a reference to Aguilar in future media.

6. Mixed feelings about the possible inclusion of a Leap of Faith, barely justified in the games, wouldn't work on a Real Life media.
