There are so many good movies they could watch. At least VIKI was well meaning, albeit wrong about everything, whereas Danzo was purely self-serving.
I think Team Seven would benefit from seeing the DC animated movies. As cheesy as it sounds, those superheroes are about ideals and Team Seven should have ideals to aim for, even if they are always going to fall short of them. That's why I have Sasuke repeatedly referencing DC superheroes. In canon, Sasuke never has any heroes and never does any exploration of the kind of person he wants to be. His lack of ambition for his future, beyond his tangible goals, is part of what sets him up for failure, in my opinion. He needs to ask himself, "What would Superman do?"
When people debate what Superman would do in a given hypothetical situation (ex. abortion), they can get quite heated, not because canon fails to give a clear answer, but because the question really is, "What would a morally perfect person do?" Different people are going to find different answers to that question that they feel strongly about. Heroes are worth having, because they help us to understand who we are and what we want, both for ourselves and for the world. Even when you ask, "What would Superman do," of someone who doesn't believe in altruism, like Zach Snyder, their answer is still revealing of who they are, what they value, and how they think of other people. Thus, we now have multiple live action DC movies that explore why Randian ideals are bad, and dumb, and boring. See: Man of Steel.
Sasuke's lack of imagination in canon really undermines him as a person and as the master of his own destiny. He's at that age when people are most likely to be keyed-in to superhero media (I know I was watching the heck out of DBZ and YuYu Hakusho at that age), so I thought it would be a good fit.
On my God! You mention D Z and now m picturing Naruto getting one of his shadow clones to yell and do a ‘Buff’ transformation
Hell sasuke could do it too, that’d be hilarious and then there’s be other ninjas or kids trying to do that and now I’m picturing kids and ninjas just randomly screaming to buff up.
“Macho, Macho, Macho!” (Gui would be so proud, kakashi face slapping in distress)
Though yu yu hakusho is another good one, cheesy in the beginin*but lots of kick assery, might get Naruto to really train
LOL! I would love to see Naruto and the crew doing buff transformations! They could look like tiny, little body-builders and weird out everyone who saw them. That would be hilarious!
