I hope to god we see him again. Not in Ep. 7, 8, or 9. I mean a spin-off before Ep. 6.
I'd be all over seeing him in a spin-off. He'd feel too forced in any of the sequels, but I'd kill for a Palpatine spin-off. The Darth Plageius book was one of my favorites in the EU, and while it doesn't technically count anymore, a movie based on something like that would be very impressive and well worth watching.
