Mad Max Fury Road. They defeat the tyrant, and get the control of the water valves. Then they open the valves and seemingly keep them open. One problem, how long is the water reservoir gonna last now?

Logan's Run. The city dwellers are freed from the computer's iron-fisted rule, and Carrousel. But their city is in ruins, and thinks to the computer providing everything. They don't know how to live without it. The city dwellers are going to start dying off real fast.

From what I've seen, the political landscape that precipitated the start of WWI didn't resolve when it ended. WWII was really just the continuation of WWI after a long pause.

And the original trilogy never resolved what happened to the thousands of empire controlled planets and fleets of ships. The rebellion just killed the emperor and death star, but there were still a lot of members of the empire still out there ruling planets.

Yeah, which is why I thought that the original ending to Return of the Jedi, which was just a local party with the Ewoks, was much better than the immediate galaxy wide celebration that Lucas insisted on adding in the re-release.
