Correct, it is a film. One can't end it on a sad note. I never said I didn't understand why the scene is how it is. Though why have it at all? Problem is DC, that these executions aren't on screen. That gives the impression that everyone hated the empire. It like the idea that ALL stormies are clones. Kind of ruins the whole "small band of rebels" idea, when ones lead to think that the entire Galaxy hates the Emperor.
