I guess if they stopped now lovely would be through with her comparisons and would be able to sit back and relax. I really enjoy reading the comparisons lovely did a great job on them. So it is sad to think we may not see anymore.......... Still waiting on 51

I was just thinking of something.....I remember a while back before this thread even existed that some members speculated that 4Kids might try to combine the last couple of episodes of Shaman King into a movie. Since 4Kids is doing that with Kirby, could they possibly be doing the same for Shaman King if it doesn't return to Fox in the Fall? Even if Shaman King has already completed its run in the UK with none of the episodes combined, it wouldn't be unusual for the episodes to be combined only in the U.S., since I believe 4Kids combined some episodes of Yugioh for the U.S., but they were shown as seperate episodes in other English-speaking countries and on the dub-only Yugioh DVDs (please correct me if this is wrong). At first I thought this idea would be too ridicilous to believe even for 4Kids, but if they're planning on doing this with Kirby, then it's possible it could happen to Shaman King, too.

Maybe they're doing the movie thing with Kirby because nobody (that I know of) likes it, and this is like a last-ditch attempt to make money...assuming the movie's being shown in a theater -_-;;

From what's been said in the Kirby thread, the Kirby movie is being released on video, which is what would probably happen to a Shaman King movie if 4Kids ends up doing that. Or maybe they'll air a bunch of combined episodes as a Shaman King "movie" on Fox, so they can finish airing the series all in one week instead of airing a bunch of seperate episodes spread out in a bunch of weeks, especially since 4Kids seems so eager to hurry up and finish airing Shaman King for some strange reason.
