If this new trilogy has any chance of recapturing that spirit I hope politics stays out of it. It should be a small story. It will be difficult to have cut-out baddies without redemption (I know Vader had redemption but he was the only one). In a modern film the Emperor would go into therapy...
Yes, most films today end with the villain in therapy. They hardly ever kill of villains in the cinema anymore.
