I think it's highly unlikely it's going to be a slow plot and character-driven drama as opposed to a hyperactive action movie

A shame, that.

It is, assuming it's not a George Lucas PT movie. I like movies that take their time. Look at ESB: it's very slow, especially if you compare it to modern action flicks. That's a good thing because of what maintaining that kind of pace allows you to do. You couldn't have written that movie around frenetic action beats every five minutes. Luke fighting a dozen Sith Lords on Dagobah (because nothing's happened action-wise for several minutes already at that point, and we can't have that) would've ruined those scenes.

Yep. I gotta admit though, that despite my better judgment I'm holding on to the hope that we will get a true sequel to ROTJ done in the style of the OT. Actually, the reworking of the script to put focus on the OT heroes gives me just a bit of faith.
