I'll also be happy either way. I'd like to see how Sasuke deals with being blind/one-eyed, and if Itachi beats him again it will basically show him that the whole running off to Orochimaru was a big fat waste of time, and I'd like to see where he would go from there. But I'd like to see Sasuke win for a change as well.
That's exactly it. In a way I feel like I (and most fans) are waiting/expecting for Sasuke to get retribution on leaving - because that was Wrong, and thus he is to be Punished. Actually, I think that's the main reason why people were so ticked off when Sasuke did away with Orochimaru, because he didn't need saving after all. (The Damsel in Distress position as a punishment - discuss.)
Because if it is genjustu, then it'd be stupid to fake him out going for the eyes if that's his real purpose.
Unless he's going for the 'you couldn't see through my genjutsu little brother you suck' approach. Always a possibility. Getting stale, though.
