I agree with you 1000%. I hope the Japanese company gets a deal settled, although there will still be fansubs.

I saw multiple groups fansub Ghost In the Shell: Innocence even after the US release had been announced.

Anime movies being released theatrically are still a rarity so any that do get the deal I wish fansub goups wouldn't hurt their box office numbers by releasing a fansub.

Someone may say "I'll still see it in the theater, buy the dvd, etc..." well good for them, but for every person THAT DOES DO THAT. There's 2 or 3 who will just watch the fansub and skip seeing it in the theater.
