It might not have, but it was fairly popupar as a cult classic. Even if they have to cut down on the amazing cgi, it'll be OK so long as the actors and characters can keep up with the original.
As someone who haven't watched Naruto in years but knows how the story ends, I can tell you that these fillers are probably better than the actual story.
In the scene they were talking to kids I believe. They wanted to get them away form them as **** was going/about to go down. They are apart of the younger (Thinking mostly teens at the time, they were talking to some 8 year olds or so) "gang" in the block. Still, would have been funny.
I need to actually see this film, one of my friends starred in it. (that's him in the pic, Jermaine Hunter). He's also been on Casulty, a britbong show. I'm hoping he'll get bigger scenes and make a name for himself.
