I was waiting for the news/blog post, but I guess the forums will do.

The trailer was interesting, the colour grading was a bit too much. (Modern day looks blue, Inquisition looks orange)

The Animus crane thing is interesting, maybe something Abstergo developed to make the bleeding effect take hold faster?

There are some more details released, such as modern day also taking place in Spain, underneath an abandoned church. The same facility also holds 30-40 other patients, the ones who interact with Callum have ancestors in the periods the games take place, including someone called Lin who may or may not be a descendant of Shao Jun.

Weapons from the series are replicated and used as easter eggs, spread around the movie.

Sofia Rikkin does not know about the darker intentions of her father and is a researcher looking for the origin of "violence" in an attempt to eradicate it.
