@meri-chan:
A NS romance movie? No please. Naruto has never been about romance and it would work better as a subplot. I'm a NS fan, but never at the sake of the plot. I wouldn't want this, especially with all these retcons and asspulls just to make it work.
Let me picture it right now with all the NH plotpoints in this movie for NS. Let's see:
1). Naruto and Sakura have no development during the two-year timeskip.
2). Sakura needs a genjutsu to realize Naruto's feelings even though Sai kittening told her.
3). Sakura's feelings for Sasuke get suddenly retconned as only a "product as her rivalry with Ino." Offensive to her character, offensive to all the pain Sasuke called her, and dodges the issue of moving on from first love.
4). The villain is only around for NS to be canon.
5). No Team 7 focus, even though SN bond is important to Naruto.
6). Naruto thinks Sakura left him and mopes, is jealous, feels sorry for himself, and acts like a immature brat instead of having the selfless, understanding side in love we know he's capable of in the series.
7). Sakura suddenly develops feelings for Naruto, even though 699 happened and the question is asked how come her feelings change now but not before.
8). Sakura is damsel in distress for the sake of romance. No.
9). Sakura gives him a scarf in some way with a flashback never in the manga. Naruto apparently had a scarf from Kushina once ... okay.
10). No Kakashi focus, no Team Taka resolution, not much focus on anyone other than NS
11). Fighting in space
.... Yep, sorry, that still sounds like kitten. I would hate this version with NS too. The NaruHina movie just causes a little more damage because it didn't get as much development as NaruSaku and breaks the story themes more overtly, but this movie premise is bad and forced either way.
I'm actually glad NaruSaku didn't become canon if the ending and this movie was all they could come up with. I've read and written better fanfiction than this, no matter which pairing it supported.
