Naruto the Movie: the Last
Japanse audio, English subtitles. Alright, let's get this over and done with.

I don't get half the crap that went down, to be honest. It's just like every other Naruto movie except it's canon so you can't just ignore the dumb stuff that always crops up in them.
So we get stuck with a mess of a plot for the sake of a romance story that I would have been happy believing involved nothing more than Naruto asking Hinata out for a bowl of ramen a couple of weeks after the war. Hell, Kishimoto could have just written a sidestory depicting various hook-ups - NaruHina, SasuSaku, SaIno, ChouKaru and KibaTama - and it probably would have been better than the entire movie.

The movie is still fresh in my mind so I think I can explain some of your questions. Although I am still in the dark about a lot of it, mostly because a lot of made no sense, but also because the subtitles just disappeared in the last twenty minutes or so of my copy of the movie and I honestly didn't care enough to find a better version to finish it.
Toneri needed a Byakugan because like every other member of his clan, his eyes were sacrificed to power the Tenseigan at a young age. That's why he had empty eye sockets before kidnapping Hanabi, and it's why the tenseigan is so powerful (it contains the power of thousands of pairs of Byakugan).
He was scoping out the Hyuuga compound because he needed a pair of Byakugan to synchronize with the tenseigan so he could wield it's power directly. That's why he kidnapped Hanabi and stole her eyes. Presumably, he also saw Hinata and fell in love with her at first sight, because he was a creepy sociopath who had never met a real woman after reaching puberty. I think he intended to rebuild the human race with her after wiping out humanity by colliding the moon with the earth, Adam and Eve style.

Not arguing that point. I was pretty annoyed too when he read Hinata's mind while she was sleeping and saw she loved Naruto and was SHOCKED AND OUTRAGED that she didn't love HIM. And then he demanded she make him a scarf as if that would somehow force her to love him, and was later SHOCKED AND OUTRAGED once again when he learned she really made the scarf for Naruto. And then for a final time he was SHOCKED AND OUTRAGED to learn that she had only accepted his offer of marriage to find her sister and the Tenseigan and had been planning to betray him the whole time.
Seriously, this dude apparently actually thought Hinata had accepted his offer of marriage because she had suddenly fallen in love with the madman who stole her sister's eyes, attempted to murder her sort-of-boyfriend, and was planning to destroy the world. He never suspected that she was lying to him. Toneri was really fucking dumb.

Sort of. One of the spirits of the dead Ootsutsuki Clan showed Hinata a vision of the past, where the Ootsutsuki Clan waged a civil war over their interpretation of "Homura's celestial decree." The branch family believed that Homura ordered them to observe mankind for a thousand years, and if after all that time they determined that the shinobi of the Earth had betrayed Hagoromo's ideals and were using chakra for evil, they would then destroy them all. What the main family believed the decree to be is never actually explained, but it doesn't matter because the branch family won the civil war.
That explanation doesn't really cut it though, because the flashback shows the branch family using the Tenseigan to absolutely slaughter the main family while suffering no casualties of their own. What happened to all of the hundreds/thousands of victorious branch family Ootsutsuki besides Toneri is never explained. Toneri mentions at one point that his father died when he was young, but he neglects to mention how he died.
Also the dead spirit refers to Hinata as the "Byakugan Princess", but what this means is also never really explained beyond the fact that it apparently means she somehow has Homura's chakra and can thus pass through the barrier placed on the Tenseigan that prevents non-Ootsutsuki from touching it, which is how she was able to help Naruto destroy it.

Pretty much. He never had any reference for romantic love and how to deal with it, so he made the conclusion "I am attracted by her->I'm in love with her THEREFORE she is in love with me! But she's still thinking of Naruto and scarves... Wait, that's it! Scarves are proof of love, if she makes me a scarf, she will fall in love with me!"
I wonder if the Main Family was actually the HYUGA Main family. It would explain Hinata being the Byakugan Princess

Regardless of whether it's stupidity or lack of education or actual mental illness, he's still the lamest supervillain ever. It really annoys me that Naruto spares his life and lets him go free at the end of the movie. If this nitwit deserves mercy, then Madara should have been spared too. Madara was a way better villain and his goal was way less evil - he wanted to create a utopia for humanity with himself as god, whereas Toneri tried to exterminate the entire human race!
So survivors of the Ootsutsuki main family fled to Earth and founded the Hyuuga Clan? I suppose they must have forgotten to write down their history with Hamura's decree and the Tenseigan and living on the moon then, since the modern Hyuuga Clan doesn't seem to know about any of that stuff.
Although now I'm wondering what that meeting between Toneri and Hiashi at the beginning of the movie was really about. I suppose that Toneri must have demanded that Hiashi give him a set of Byakugan so he could destroy the world, since Hiashi's response was to attack him and then flee. Although, if Hiashi at least knew that his clan came from the moon that might explain why he was even willing to meet with and listen to Toneri in the first place.

Madara died because ripping out a biju(Tentails in this istance) out of its jinchuriki is sure death.
For the Hyuga forgetting their history... blame Black Zetsu. To foment the Uchiha-Senju duality and hatred, so they would keep producing Reincarnations, he probably erased from history all traces of Hagoromo's brother, to keep people thinking they might actually try and be cordial to each other for a change.
Toneri probably did present Hiashi with some relic tied to the Hyuuga clan, or something.
