[QUOTE="TK-7785, post: 521931, member: 8868"] All valid points and whilst I agree that certain plot devices, such as the tracking fob, would be helped with some basic explanation I think as fans we can also fall into the pit of over analysing. There was mention in the first or second chapter about a code as well. Maybe these things co off some kind of ID code?! Who knows. For me it isn't quite a big of an issue as hyperspace ramming and the complete 180 of a known character. One of the things I love about the Mandlorian so much is it has really pared Star Wars back to what it is at its core and what started the whole thing back in 77. Which is timeless myths of heroes and villains in a really comic bookey, 50s Saturday morning serial kind of style. Let's face it, the entire OT was exactly that. In the subsequent decades Star Wars has become something far greater and although we started as fans when we were kids, we've all grown up and our sensibilities have changed. Our expectations of what makes a good film/story etc has changed. Yet at the same time we all still yearn to feel that same feeling we did as a kid watching the OT. For me The Mandalorian has done about a good a job as anyone could have expected to try and merge those two worlds. Is it perfect? No. Does it make me feel like I'm watching a new Star Wars film in the vein of the OT circa 1980 something? Hell yeah it does! [/QUOTE]
