Having just finished playing through the Fate route, which provides information that makes me feel slightly less gypped by the 'Saber goes back to die thing', and watching the end of the anime, I realized that they actually left a way for Shiro and Saber to be reunited in the present. They only mention it in passing, but if you take her last words ('This sleep will be quite a long one') and combine that with what supposidly happened to King Arthur after his death, you've got a way for him to get her back. Although, honestly, going back in time is probably easier than busting into Avalon.
Also, finding out what was really going on in that corpse room under the church catapults Kotomine WAY ahead of Shinji in the evil bastard race.--
La Krueze: I just want everyone in the universe to suffer. Is that so wrong?

If you become a monster to put down a monster you've still got a monster running around at the end of the day and have as such not really solved the whole monster problem at all.
